A strange little side quest
Put FNF VS Jeffy next to the history of video-game history and a few unexpected connections appear. Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. The surprising part is how quickly the next milestone followed. Street Fighter II, released in 1991, turned head-to-head arcade fighting into a worldwide phenomenon and helped define the modern fighting-game genre. It is a good reminder that simple game mechanics can carry a surprising amount of history.
