Computer Othello
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Computer Othello (コンピューターオセロ?) is the first video arcade game ever to be produced and published by Nintendo, although the previous year it did release a dedicated console called Color TV Game 6, and the company had produced a variety of electromechanical arcade games earlier in the 1970s. It was developed by Ikegami Tsushinki and was released in Japan in 1978. It is not known to have ever been released outside Japan. A home version of the game was released in 1980 for the Computer TV Game, the last of Nintendo's home consoles that don't require ROM cartridges, discs or any other data storage mediums that are easy to insert or remove.
[edit] Gameplay
Computer Othello is a simplistic video adaptation of the classic board game alternately known as Othello (or Reversi). The screen is fully black with a green board that has a grid for placing full and hollow Othello pieces. Computer Othello had only ten colored buttons per player, and no joystick.
