Gee Bee

Released in October 1978 by Namco (now Bandai Namco Entertainment), *Gee Bee* is a landmark arcade title that marked the company’s full-scale entry into the video game industry. Its defining feature is a unique system that fuses elements of pinball with the gameplay style of brick-breaking; the experience of using an on-screen paddle to bounce a ball and hit targets brought a fresh sensation to the arcades of the time. As the starting point for the technical and creative challenges that would lead to Namco’s subsequent golden age, *Gee Bee* remains an essential piece of hardware that has carved its name into the history of Japanese video games.
