Othello Multivision retrospective pt. 1: A seriously @!#?@! footnote in Sega history | Segaiden #13
Youtube Video Description:
While Segaiden has covered every SG-1000 release through the end of 1984 at this point, there's technically still a set of games for the system that need to be touched on. Eight (or technically nine) unique releases for SG-1000 appeared in 1983 and ’84, under a non-Sega publisher, branded for release on a different console. Nevertheless, they're a part of SG-1000 history, as each of them runs on the system with no fuss.
Yes, this episode we look at the SG-1000's semi-official clone, the Tsukuda Original Othello Multivision. With eight unique carts and one built-in ROM, it's worth exploring... but only barely. These games are generally of MUCH lower quality than Sega's own releases. In this episode, we explore:
• Othello
• Q*Bert
• Guzzler
• Space Mountain
Buckle in. It's a pretty bumpy ride.
