About

Anticipation was marketed as Nintendo's "first video board game", and was developed by Rare for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1988. It allowed for single player against computer-controlled opponents, as well as multiplayer with support for up to four players.

Story

Anticipation incorporated aspects of Pictionary and Trivial Pursuit. Competition involved being the first player to complete every level in the game. To complete a level, a player must guess the correct picture that is being drawn by the computer on the screen-this must be done multiple times and in different categories. Different difficulties were available in the game, and four different categories.
