The first company to use the term "console" to officially refer to its video game system was Fairchild with the Channel F in 1976.
Although the first computer games appeared in the 50s[4] it was not until 1972 that Magnavox released the first home video game console, the Magnavox Odyssey.

That would be the Magnavox Odyssey in 1972, followed by Atari's Pong in 1975, and the Atari and RCA units began the cartridge game systems in 1976.

Pong.
There was a console made that only played pong. It came with two handheld paddle controls, one for each player.
