Let's see

Video games have been around since 1972, but only 2 of the top 20 most innovative games were released before 1995 (and none before 1991).

I guess the first two decades were just not innovative.

By the way, how many of those concepts listed in that article were patented?

Ralph Baer patented the idea of television-based gaming and had a working prototype of what became the Magnavox Odyssey in 1968.

You might want to check my thread out. 

As an added bonus you can probably double check my early yeras date/info since I'm sure I wrote something down wrong.
