Nintendo


Nintendo is, I believe, the start of all video game crazes, and is the heart of the entertainment of media. I think Nintendo has the most experience of any video game company.  Microsoft  may out class Nintendo in graphics, but never in the style of game play. Mario, Link, Donkey Kong are some of the best known video game characters in the world. I truly believe that Nintendo is the best video game company out there.

Here are some of the systems Nintendo has made starting it's 1981 video arcade, Donkey Kong
Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
Super Nintendo (SNES)
Nintendo 64 (N64)
Nintendo Game Cube (NCG)
Nintendo Wii (Wii)

And hand held systems:

Game Boy (GB)
Game Boy Pocket (GBP)
Game Boy Color (GBC)
Game Boy Advance (GBA)
Game Boy Advance SP (GBASP)
Nintendo D.uel S.creen (DS)
Nintendo DS lite (DSlite)

As you can see, Nintendo has made many consoles and video games since 1981, and is still very popular.
