pong was not the first video game, the release date for public purchase was in 1972
The first video game available for public purchase, Two for Tennis, was created by William Higinbotham in 1958
the game described by the fellow above me was not commercially available - but it is a prior game. there was also another one before '58.

the first video game wasnt actually pong The earliest known interactive electronic game was created by Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann on a cathode ray tube[3] in 1947. The game was a missile simulator inspired by radar displays from World War II. It used analogue circuitry, not digital, to drive the CRT, and used an overlay for the targets since graphics could not be drawn at the time
