<P> Although the company had earlier released Color TV Game and Game & Watch , which were their first and second systems respectfully , they did not achieve worldwide success until the release of the Nintendo Entertainment System ( NES ) in 1983 . The NES restarted the video game industry after the video game crash of 1983 , and was an international success . In 1989 , Nintendo released the Game Boy , which became the first handheld console to sell in large numbers . In the early 1990s , Nintendo 's market lead began to decrease ; although the 1990 Super Nintendo Entertainment System ( SNES ) was a strong seller , the Mega Drive / Genesis was a very strong contender . Nintendo and Sega would both lose a significant portion of the console market towards the end of the 1990s , as Sony Computer Entertainment 's PlayStation became the most popular console , beating the Nintendo 64 , though Nintendo managed to sell more than Sega Saturn . </P>
