Simon was one of the first popular electronic games. Invented by Ralph Baer and put on the market by Milton Bradley in 1978, Simon sold well for year after year. Its simple gameplay of remember the randomized sequence of colors not only challenged the short-term memory of its players but their ability to recall sequences quickly. These devices sold so many units that obtaining a vintage unit with its three switches and three buttons is not hard to find and will not break the bank. Recently I had acquired a "vintage" Simon and could see that it was in need of repair, so I decided to document the steps I took to repair it.
