Not sure if it is the same thought, but people played Pong on their computers when it was first introduced, and it wasn't much of a game. How about pinball tables? They're fun, though. Unbeatable games are fun, as long as they are unbeatable in the sense that there is no end to them, rather than the fact that the game always wins a contest against you. A beginning chess player would soon get tired of playing against a grand master, but could, if he or she made the right moves, beat that grand master.
