Ralph Baer is the "father of video games", as he created the prototype for the first home video game console in 1966 which would eventually be released as the Odyssey by Magnavox.

That isn't to discount Pong's importance in increasing the popularity of the video game medium, but Baer was the first to envision the games as being played on televisions and making it possible to do so. He also created the first home light gun game. The man was a damned genius of some sort.

 

EDIT: He began work in 1966, but completed the legendary "Brown Box", which is now on display in the National Museum of American History, in 1968, some four years before the release of Pong.

Fair Enough.Then I revise my three to be:1. Odyssey - For starting gaming2. Nes- For Saving the Industry3. Ps1 - For begining the first major exsansion of the industry. I am not being sarcastic when I say "thank you for correcting me."
