Best Selling Game on Every Nintendo Console

Nintendo entered the handheld gaming market with the Game & Watch, a unique, folding LCD device that also included a clock. Over the years, Nintendo created more than 60 different Game & Watch models, even releasing full-color versions to celebrate its 35th anniversary in 2020 and 2021. These systems sold over 43.3 million units in total, with Donkey Kong being the most popular game, selling over 8 million copies. The success of Donkey Kong was particularly important, as the arcade version helped rescue Nintendo from financial trouble in 1981 and propelled them to become a major force in the video game industry.
