History of Nintendo
In 1972, the first commercially available video game console, the Magnavox Odyssey, had a light gun accessory, the Shooting Gallery. This was the first involvement of Nintendo in video games. According to Martin Picard in the "International Journal of Computer Game Research": "in 1971, Nintendo had -- even before the marketing of the first home console in the United States -- an alliance with the American pioneer Magnavox to develop and produce optoelectronic guns for the Odyssey (released in 1972), since it was similar to what Nintendo was able to offer in the Japanese toy market in 1970s".
Star Wars
The first officially licensed "Star Wars" electronic game was Kenner's 1979 table-top "Star Wars" Electronic Battle Command. In 1982, Parker Brothers published the first "Star Wars" video game for the Atari 2600, "". It was followed in 1983 by Atari's rail shooter arcade game "Star Wars", which used vector graphics and was based on the Death Star trench run scene from the 1977 film. The next game, "" (1984), used more traditional raster graphics, with the following game "" (1985) returning to vector graphics.
