Ralph H. Baer was an inventor who had the crazy idea to make a brand new kind of entertainment device that hooked up to your TV. This device went by the name of the brown box. This is the story of the very first video game console ever made that would start the video game industry.
The Brown Box you're seeing in the video was built by Mr. Baer but isn't the original prototype. In order to find that one you'll have to visit the Smithsonian where it is currently on display. In this video we talk about the history of the device and what it plays like. So let's check out the first video game console ever made!
