Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Footage of screen scrolling in the video game Surround officially released in 1977 for the Atari 2600
Author or copyright owner	Atari
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Footage of playing the game emulated on the Atari 50 compilation on the Nintendo Switch. Video footage and gameplay are made myself
Date of publication	1977
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Surround (video game)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	This video is created to illustrate the gameplay. With Atari's very primitive graphics, it is not clear what is happening from a simple still image. Combined with the text, it is more obvious to a reader now what it means that a "wall trails behind them", how points are scored, and how gameplay would be like.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1)	Text is limiting where video can illustrate several gameplay elements (how the player moves, the nature of the game, the scoring, etc.)
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This animated gif will be used in the Surround article in the gameplay section to showcase the same playthrough of the game
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The use of a low-resolution screenshot from software or a website will not impact the commercial viability of the software or site.
Other information	The footage is captured by myself, cropped, and edited from fuller gameplay footage.
