I cant remember what it was called, but it was a computer game that was loosely about getting a dwarf through a door.  It was a puzzle game that I played constantly (especially since there was no save feature and I had to replay through old levels every time a started the game).  I wish I still had it so I could pwn that little dwarf and his second grade leveled puzzles...

Pong.

It was probably about 1978 or so.

It was a big console thingy with gigantic paddle type controllers that hooked up to your TV and back then TV's had knobs on it to change the channel.

I think ours was the Sears version that came out in 1975 or so.

Pong on console.  I think I had the same one as yours.  Do you remember getting "radiation" back then?

But on a "PC", I think it was that Star Trek game on a TRS-80 or Teletype.

Regards to the TV, I remember sound-based TV remotes that changed the channel via a clicker.

Gran Trak 10. It was an Atari Racing game which came out in 1974. I probably played in sometime around late 1975 - early 1976.

By radiation do you mean the burnt image of the border around the pong court? Yeah we had that happen my dad got a separate TV just for the game...umm more like after we ruined our TV we got a new one just for TV show watching

Those first "remotes" were pretty clunky just like mashing a big toggle switch "CLICK, CLICK, CLICK".

I like how it only went up or down you could not enter a channel by number you had to scroll, god help you as a kid if you "Clicked" too fast.

I'd usually get smacked up side the head with a magazine, which wasn't bad unless it was a National Geographic, ouch those ones hurt.

You had the On, Off, and channel up and down toggle button.

Thank god they were only 13 numbers back then. That cut down on the channel surfing.

Regards to radiation, I forgot about burn-in.  But no, i was referring to that funny feeling your body got from playing Pong too close to the TV...

About the clicker, as a kid, it got scary when the channel would change all by itself due to some sound coming from the TV or radio.

Oh yeah the X-ray feeling, I like to think It gave me mutant powers.

I don't remember the random channel changing happens too much probably because I had a short attention span back then.

SHIZNITS I FORGOT ABOUT THAT GAME

I remember (I was only 5 at the time) going down hills, and not knowing you could jump. Then I climbed right back up the hill.

I loved getting eaten by the Yeti. Greatest sense of accomplishment I had felt in my young life.
