I'm not sure if this is 1 or two, but I' giv eit a shot.

QUESTION:

How succesful did you imagine PONG to be? Did you think it would make as much an impact as it did?

Is it true that PONG had to be halted for a few years so that technology could catch up and play it with its full graphic and physics settings?

Since you created PONG were you any good at it? Did you beat people or did you suck at it?
