Othello Multivision

The Othello Multivision FG-1000 developed by Tsukuda Original was one of the more well-known SC-3000 clones. The console was made of a keyboard with a cartridge slot and a tiny joystick grafted on to the right side of the keyboard. The Multivision could play any SG-1000 or SC-3000 game, but it also came bundled with Othello (hence the name) and had a handful of exclusive games packaged under the Multivision branding. A second model of the Multivision, the FG-2000, was released in 1984 with a built-in directional pad instead of a joystick and a port that allowed a second actual controller, but by then, the Multivision’s fate on the marketplace had been sealed. Both versions sold poorly, and as a result, are incredibly rare.
