The ultimate history of video games : from Pong to Pokémon and beyond : the story behind the craze that touched our lives and changed the world (Roseville Calif: Prima Pub, 2001)

»The truth is, I was running out of parts on the board. Nolan [Bushnell] wanted the roar of a crowd of thousands — the approving roar of cheering people when you made a point. Ted Dabney told me to make a boo and a hiss when you lost a point, because for every winner there’s a loser. I said ›Screw it, I don’t know how to make any one of those sounds. I don’t have enough parts anyhow. Since I had the wire wrapped on the scope, I poked around the sync generator to find an appropriate frequency or a tone. So those sounds were done in half a day. They were the sounds that were already in the machine.«
