Computer Space

Computer Space is a video arcade game released in November 1971 by Nutting Associates. It was created by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney, who later started the company Atari.
Computer Space is a derivative of the 1962 computer game Spacewar!  Eventually, Nolan Bushnell, a big fan of this game, decided to transform Spacewar into a marketable game, which led to the game's adaptation into the first ever coin operated arcade game.
Computer Space was popular enough for a 2-player version with a green case and fiberglass cabinet to be released in July 1973.
