The Sega Graphic Board is a peripheral for the SG-1000, acting as a basic tablet. It was released in 1985 for a Japanese audience.
The Sega Graphic Board's only real function is to allow Terebi Oekaki to work properly. Unlike other controllers, it is permanently attached to the Terebi Oekaki cartridge. The peripheral is limited for a number of reasons - the drawing area is small (10.8cm x 8cm) and the short lead means it can only be used if the player is very close to the console. Also as the SG-1000 can only output 16 colours on screen, the Terebi Oekaki software is also quite limited.
In order to use the Sega Graphic Board, the player requires a stylus (a black Sega-branded one ships with the unit). It requires more pressure than normal tablets in order for the console to receieve a signal, however offers a thin and transparent drawing area to allow users to trace images.
Plans were made to bring a slightly redesigned Graphic Board to other regions (namely Germany) and sell it as a Sega Master System accessory, however this never materialised.
