Cutie Q
is a 1979 block breaker/video pinball hybrid arcade game developed and published by Namco in Japan. The player controls a set of paddles with a rotary knob, the objective being to score as many points possible by deflecting a ball against blocks, ghosts, spinners and other objects on the playfield. It was designed by Shigeru Yokoyama, with spritework done by Toru Iwatani. It is the third and final game in the '' Gee Bee'' trilogy.

The title was derived from the band Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1968 cover of the song Susie Q, which Iwatani was a fan of. To lower manufacturing costs, it was only sold as a conversion kit for older ''Gee Bee'' and ''Bomb Bee'' arcade units. The game was ported to the PlayStation in 1996 as part of the Japanese release of '' Namco Museum Vol. 2'', with ...

Bomb Bee
is a Japanese arcade game that was released by Namco in 1979. It is the sequel to '' Gee Bee'', which was released in the previous year. Gameplay The maximum number of players is two, and the two players have to alternate. The control is a rotary analog stick. The main object of the game is to move two paddles that ricochet a ball which flies around and needs to hit the colored bricks above it. When the bricks are cleared out of the side sections, it will turn that same side's pop-bumper into 100 points instead of 10. It is a bonus multiplier to get the ball to light up the word "NAMCO". Reception and legacy ''Bomb Bee'' was not a success when it was released. According to Matt Barton, the author of the book ''Vintage Games 2.0'', the game did not sell well and likely sold the same amount of machines as ''Gee Bee'', a game that didn't meet sales expectations either. The success of Namco's later release ''Galaxian'', a revolutionary shooting game, is believed to have contributed ...

Ikegami Tsushinki
() is a Japanese manufacturer of professional and broadcast television equipment, especially professional video cameras, both for electronic news gathering and studio use. The company was founded in 1946. History Ikegami introduced the first portable 4 1/2-inch Image Orthicon tube hand-held TV camera. The camera made its debut in the United States in February 1962, when CBS used it to document the launching of NASA's Friendship 7, its first crewed space mission to orbit the Earth. In 1972, Ikegami introduced the HL-33, the first compact hand-held color video camera for electronic news gathering (ENG). The compact ENG cameras made live shots easier and—when combined with portable videotape recorders—provided an immediate alternative to 16mm television news film, which required processing before it could be broadcast. In addition to ENG, these cameras saw some use in outside broadcasts in Britain, particularly for roaming footage that was not possible to capture using the ...

Computer Othello
Computer Othello refers to computer architecture encompassing computer hardware and computer software capable of playing the game of Othello. It was notably included in Microsoft Windows from 1.0 to XP, where it is simply known as Reversi. Availability There are many Othello programs such as NTest, Saio, Edax, Cassio, Pointy Stone, Herakles, WZebra, and Logistello that can be downloaded from the Internet for free. These programs, when run on any up-to-date computer, can play games in which the best human players are easily defeated. This is because although the consequences of moves are predictable for both computers and humans, computers are better at exploring them. Search techniques Computer Othello programs search for any possible legal moves using a game tree. In theory, they examine all positions / nodes, where each move by one player is called a "ply". This search continues until a certain maximum search depth or the program determines that a final "leaf" position ...
