At the time, the first sports video games were considered games of skill because they did not feature real graphics. However, a distinction is made between sports video games, in which the player takes part in the action, and management sports games, which belong to management games and are at the intersection of economic simulation and sports tactics.
A sports game can be described as a simulation (Full Aces Tennis Simulator). The goal of the game is to represent as faithfully as possible the reality of the chosen sport. Alternatively, it can be described as an arcade (virtual tennis) game that uses gaming principles. Aim for reality without constraint, rather the spectacular side of the discipline.
The first sports video game was also the first browser video game released in 1958. Tennis for Two was released in 1958. Other text-based video games appeared in the 1970s, including the famous 1972 game Pong. In the early 1980s, video game consoles appeared offering a variety of sports games. The most popular video games are soccer, tennis, and general two-player games. However, the possibility of playing alone or with other players (2 players or more) cannot be excluded.
Games related to the Olympics and various world championships are also available. In 1993, the EA Sports label was launched by Electronic Arts and began to dominate the video game market. In 2006, Wii Sports appeared on Wii.
