"it is generally regarded as the first coin-op video game." Is it? I thought that would be Pong.

Galaxy Game may have come before Computer Space.
This was definitely before Pong. However, not sure on Galaxy Game. That said, pulled a comment from a mailing list I'm on; essentially, Nutting Associates only manufactured this; it was designed/developed by Syzygy, Nolan's company. Can anyone confirm that?

- Galaxy Game does predate Computer Space, but not my much. I have added a note in the Trivia section, although perhaps it should be more prominant? Maury 12:35, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
there is no article for galaxy game - i'm dubious that it should be explained here, especially with the conflicting detail about which came first. Aaronbrick 21:12, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 13" or 15" monitor?
Pages that mention computerspace uses a 13" monitor include [1] [2]. Pages that mention 15" include [3]. Does anybody know better than that? There's a manual for the unit posted at KLOV [4], but I can't find anything relevant there, though it's very difficult to search through. --Interiot 23:32, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
This game was cloned/bootlegged in 1972 by For-Play as "Star Trek" [5]
