RIP Ralph Bear (creator of the first game console)


He really was considered the true "God Father" of modern video games.

God bless his soul.

Just listened to Last Word on BBC Radio 4 that had a section on Ralph Baer, it's repeated again on Sunday at 20:30 or will be available on iPlayer soon.

The section relating to Mr Baer is towards the end.
 
I think his last appearance (of several in the last year) was in "The King Of Arcades" - it begins with him still working away in his fully kitted out electronics workshop.
