Extraordinary access was granted to the Gamma team to the genius pioneers of the multi-billion dollar computer games industry. The story moves from Atari's madcap adventures in the Seventies and the little known genius who preceded them, through to Nintendo's emergence and Mario-lead dominance of the Eighties, onto the battle behind the iron curtain for control of Tetris. Plus many more gripping tales. Fast-paced, irreverent and full of fascinating anecdotes straight from the men and women who were there in the early days of this now massive global industry.

Featuring indepth interviews with Pong creator Al Alcorn, Atari founder Noel Bushnell, and Nintendo icon Shigeru Miyamoto.
