 TOUCAN'S TRIVIA: There was also a game
called Video
Chess released on the Atari 2600 in 1979, programmed by Bob
Whitehead and Larry Wagner. Even though both the Atari 2600 and
TI-99/4A games share the same title and release date, they share no
relation beyond both being computer adaptations of Chess. |
| TOUCAN'S TRIVIA: This cartridge was
designed with the help of International Chess Master David Levy, and it
shows. Video Chess can be quite challenging on higher levels
of play and is highly recommended for anyone who wants to take on David
Levy in digitized form! After working on this game, David went on to
create other versions of Chess on various systems. |
