Nintendo Game & Watch: Fire (1981)

Nintendo’s Game & Watch Fire, first released in 1981, is a classic handheld electronic game that captures the simple yet addictive spirit of the series. Its design, typical of the early “Silver” and later “Wide Screen” series, features a compact case with a monochrome LCD screen. The gameplay is straightforward: players control a pair of firemen with a trampoline to bounce people who are jumping out of a burning building into a waiting ambulance. The challenge increases as the speed and number of people falling from the building rise, testing the player’s timing and coordination. The game was highly popular, selling a large number of units and proving to be a successful title within the Game & Watch lineup. Its enduring legacy is seen in its re-creations in later Nintendo compilations like the Game & Watch Gallery series and its direct reference in the move set of the character Mr. Game & Watch in the Super Smash Bros. series.
