Most popular does not equal most important. What about Hack/Moria/Rouge, etc that started the RPG genre, or the major MUDs that predated MMORPG's. Wolf3D wasn't the first 3D game (Ultima Underground was, IIRC), and Doom was many times superior and did more to set the precedence of FPS to come.

Wing Commander changed the way games were made forever, moving them into the multimillion dollar bugets they have today.

Or SimCity or WarCraft...

Gamefaqs has come up with what it considers to be the top 10 most important games ever, here they are:

#10: Super Mario 64 (N64)
#9: Space Invaders (ARC)
#8: Star Wars (ARC)
#7: Donkey Kong (ARC)
#6: Breakout (ARC)
#5: Wolfenstein 3D (PC)
#4: Tetris (GB)
#3: Pong (ARC)
#2: Pac-Man (ARC)
#1: Super Mario Bros. (NES)

Do you agree, do you not, answer via the comments

In the USA, it started on May 1972 with the Magnavox Odyssey (first home video game) and Atari in November 1972 (their first PONG arcade game). Atari's game was quickly copied and improved in 1973. Later in 1975, home video games became popular and were sold by numerous companies. Ok So pong was second by a scant 6 months. But it was the first exposure I had with video games and it was the one that brought videogames to the masses

A lot of third party games of the day.
Where first attempts at the new industry,
Choosing cheaper materials then standerd insured that if a loss happened ( which was expected ) that the company suffered as little financial loss as possible, hince the difference in some tengen and other third party developers carts
