In the year 1974, Practical Wireless, a UK magazine, published a design for a pong game that connects to a television, called PW Tele Tennis.

It uses sixty four NAND gates, twelve NE555 timers, two dozen diodes and some analog parts.

It's about the most basic version of the game. They later published a sound effects board and an on-screen scoring board that uses a couple of dozen more chips.
