The newly acquired games will be installed at the museum in March 2013. Among the titles that MoMA is looking to add are some classics–Pong, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros–and some wild cards (we didn’t see Marble Madness coming). Here’s hoping that Duck Hunt and Paperboy will eventually take their place alongside Pollocks and Picassos. So, does this mean that video games are art? “They sure are, but they are also design, and a design approach is what we chose for this new foray into this universe,” notes Antonelli. “The games are selected as outstanding examples of interaction design–a field that MoMA has already explored and collected extensively, and one of the most important and oft-discussed expressions of contemporary design creativity.”
