The SC-3000 was Sega's first and most popular home computer to be released to the general public. Other endeavours such as the rare [[Sega AI]] Computer saw only a small fraction of the success the SC-3000 received, and were built with very different aims. The company would also partner with Amstrad for the Amstrad [[Mega PC]] in later years.
== Othello Multivision Licensed Clones ==
The Othello Multivision is a licensed SG-1000 clone designed by Sega and sold by Tsukuda Original. It exists because Sega's original intention for the SC-3000 computer was to allow other manufacturers to produce compatible computers in the hope of having a worldwide standard.
Unfortunately, possibly with the emergence of the [[MSX|MSX standard]], this tactic failed, and very few SG-1000/SC-3000 compatible machines were produced. The Othello Multivision was one of these machines.
