They then hired allan alcorn, who was a computer scientist and engineer, to help develop video games. Back in 1973, steve wozniak designed his own version of the classic video game pong and gave its electronics board to jobs. According to wozniak, atari only hired jobs because he took the board down to the company, and they thought that he had built it himself.
