This counted as a video game in the 1960s. You had to use your imagination. But how was your memory? Share your results!
Missed #13.

8/13, but I wasn't born until 1972, so I figure that's pretty good.

i'm waiting for the quiz for commercials on tv from the 60's. the ones i can't find on youtube. like...the teaberry shuffle? marky maypo? fruit stripe gum? chiclets? doublemint gum? "cleans like a white tornado"?(oh, no racism THERE--!) "STRONGER THAN DIRT!"-----which ones do you remember?
light bright wasnt around in my childhood. never saw it until the 90's!!!---????
I was born in 1972. I had one when I was young, so did my brother (he was born in 1977).
I was born in 1964 and I had one in the 70s.
some of these came after the 60's. i didnt know the toys aimed at boys, so i skipped over those. our toy genders were sharply separated, back then. (altho i wasnt much interested in the ones aimed at domesticating girls, either, i was well aware of them, because they were pushed in our faces from every side.) i preferred doing what the boys did.

Why would they name Barbies sister Skipper, And who would want a toy dog named Gaylord Or a doll named flatsy . Bet I know why those toys failed .
my teen cousin lived in a house full of geriatric adults and she drove them crazy-intenntionally- by walking around the house, singing the "gaylord" commercial ad nauseum. it was a toy for kids who wanted a dog, but whose parents didnt.
Got 13 out of 13. I completely guessed 1 of the answers but got it right !
10 out of 13. Not bad considering I was born in the 70s.

i hate ta break it to ya, but there were no such things as video games in the 1960's.
Which one was a video game? I didn't see any games, video or otherwise. Was it something you placed on the TV screen?
10/13. I guessed on half of them.
They forgot Johnny Lightening!
