- Reposted by Game Devs of Color ExpoThis is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

Note: this one is for Black folks to share their work. Not self appointed allies and performative list making of Black folks to follow & support UwU!
