Right up front, there are a lot of classics in this exhibit that most people have never seen outside of pictures on the internet: From Space War, to an almost-pristine Pong cabinet, to 10-player Bomberman, almost every influential step in gaming's progression is on display and playable.


So, yeah I'll definitely be checking this out. Also, if anyone else reads this article, OMSI stands for Oregon Museum of Science and Industry.

There's also one coming to the Smithsonian. I'd really like to see it, too

Hopefully there's an allowance in the budget that covers Cheeto-related damage to the historical artifacts.


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.
