The Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester has created a Video Game Hall of Fame. They are accepting nominations for the inaugural class. I know we have done similar threads, but discussing hall of fame qualifications is different from listing one's favorites. I will only list four obvious choices:
Pong
Space Invaders
Pac Man
Super Mario Brothers
Edit: Here is the criteria listed on the Hall of Fame Website:
Pong
Space Invaders
Pac Man
Super Mario Brothers
Edit: Here is the criteria listed on the Hall of Fame Website:
- Icon-status: the game is widely recognized and remembered.
- Longevity: the game is more than a passing fad and has enjoyed popularity over time.
- Geographical reach: the game meets the above criteria across international boundaries.
- Influence: The game has exerted significant influence on the design and development of other games, on other forms of entertainment, or on popular culture and society in general. A game may be inducted on the basis of this criterion without necessarily having met all of the first three.
