These four games\u2014which have significantly influenced popular culture and the video game industry\u2014emerged from a field of finalists that also included <em>Age of Empires, Angry Birds, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Frogger, Golden Tee, Harvest Moon, Mattel Football, <\/em>and <em>NBA 2K.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The games were announced at a special ceremony that included members of the <em>Defender<\/em> development team, with team lead Eugene Jarvis; John Romero, co-creator of <em>Quake<\/em>; and Tara Badie, the head of <em>Tamagotchi <\/em>for Bandai Namco. The games are now enshrined in the museum\u2019s World Video Game Hall of Fame rotunda, part of the<em> ESL Digital Worlds <\/em>exhibit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About <\/strong><strong><em>Defender: <\/em><\/strong>Released by Williams Electronics in 1981, <em>Defender <\/em>proved that players would embrace more complex and challenging games in the arcade. <em>Defender <\/em>married intense gameplay and a complicated control scheme with a horizontally scrolling spacer shooter. It sold more than 55,000 units\u2014making it a bestseller\u2014and helped create a new market for more difficult games.<\/p>\n<p>Says Jeremy Saucier, assistant vice president for interpretation and electronic games, \u201c<em>Defender<\/em>\u2019s punishing gameplay raised the level of competition in arcades, and it was among the first games to truly separate dedicated players from more casual ones. By challenging conventional wisdom about game mastery and the idea that players would reject more complex arcade video games, <em>Defender <\/em>paved the way for richer video game possibilities for developers and players alike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About <em>GoldenEye 007:<\/em><\/strong> In 1997, Rare and Nintendo partnered to release <em>GoldenEye 007<\/em> for the Nintendo 64 console, a first-person shooter based on author Ian Fleming\u2019s iconic British superspy James Bond. Lauded for its in-depth story and immersive gameplay, <em>GoldenEye 007<\/em> is especially known for its highly popular four-person multiplayer mode, which influenced many multiplayer games that followed. It was the third best-selling game for the Nintendo 64, only trailing <em>Super Mario 64<\/em> and <em>Mario Kart 64.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Says Andrew Borman, director of digital preservation, \u201cCritics lauded <em>GoldenEy<\/em>e 007 as the premier example of a first-person shooter to succeed on a console rather than a PC, and it is still considered one of the best multiplayer experiences ever produced on a Nintendo system. Its impact can be felt in nearly all console FPS games that followed, including Microsoft\u2019s epic Halo franchise that launched in 2001.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About <\/strong><strong><em>Tamagotchi: <\/em><\/strong>Launched in 1996, Tamagotchi bridged toys and video games. The handheld, electronic game created a digital pet for its owner to nurture and raise by the press of a button\u2014allowing owners to provide affection and attention from birth to adulthood. <em>Tamagotchi <\/em>spurred the popularity of the pet simulation genre of video games, yielding popular games such as <em>Neopets, Nintendogs, <\/em>and many other social media and app-based games.<\/p>\n<p>Says Kristy Hisert, collections manager, \u201cBeyond cultivating nostalgia, <em>Tamagotchi <\/em>offered a distinct form of play that differed from popular video game electronics of the time. It provided players with feelings of connection, caring, and customization, a respite from competition and fighting games. The legacy of <em>Tamagotchi <\/em>can be seen in the popular pet simulation games that followed on traditional gaming platforms, the Internet, and personal devices throughout the subsequent years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About<em> Quake<\/em>:<\/strong> Id Software\u2019s <em>Quake<\/em> shook up the gaming world when it debuted in 1996. The first-person shooter\u2019s 3-D engine became the new standard for the industry, and its multiplayer mode helped to spawn the world of esports. The revolutionary <em>Quake <\/em>game code has been linked to dozens of other games and continues to be used in some modern games nearly 30 years after its release.<\/p>\n<p>Says Lindsey Kurano, electronic games curator, \u201c<em>Quake\u2019s <\/em>legacy lives on in its atmospheric single player campaign, its influence in how online games are played, its active modding community, and its creation and shaping of esports. Not only this, but <em>Quake\u2019s <\/em>code is a <em>literal <\/em>legacy. Of few games can it be said that its DNA\u2014its code\u2014continues to be present in modern games, decades after release.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the World Video Game Hall of Fame<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The World Video Game Hall of Fame at The Strong was established in 2015 to recognize individual electronic games of all types\u2014arcade, console, computer, handheld, and mobile\u2014that have enjoyed popularity over a sustained period and have exerted influence on the video game industry or on popular culture and society in general.\u00a0 Inductees were announced at The Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, New York, on May 8, 2025, and are on permanent view on the museum\u2019s second floor in <em>ESL Digital Worlds: High Score<\/em>.
