Nintendo
Nintendo is arguably the most famous video games company in the world. Its prolific gaming profile began in 1975 with the Magnavox Odyssey, a games machine that was the forerunner to Atari's Pong.
In the early 1980s Nintendo made simple, sprite-driven handheld games under the hugely successful 'Game & Watch' brand.
Nintendo struggled with the N64 and Gamecube, which both lost out to incarnations of the Sony PlayStation. However, Nintendo has now secured a place atop international games console sales rankings with the innovative Nintendo Wii.
