Bucky O'Hare and the Toad Wars

A green rabbit captain, a four-armed duck gunner, and a boy from San Francisco fighting a Toad Empire run by a computer. The cartoon lasted 13 episodes in the fall of 1991, the Hasbro toys lasted one wave, and the Konami NES game outlived them both.

Dance Dance Revolution

Konami's iconic rhythm game where players step on a four-arrow dance pad in time with on-screen cues and music. Debuting in Japanese arcades in 1998, DDR became a global phenomenon—from arcade halls to living rooms—defining an entire genre of music-timing games.

Metal Gear Solid

Konami's PlayStation blockbuster told you NOT to shoot: Solid Snake crept through Shadow Moses ducking sightlines, hiding under a cardboard box, and answering the codec mid-mission. Hideo Kojima's stealth epic made video games feel like movies — and made one boss read your memory card out loud.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project

The Turtles are on vacation in Key West when Shredder hijacks April's newscast, takes her hostage and lifts the entire borough of Manhattan into the sky. Konami's third NES Turtles game (February 1992) was built for the console rather than ported from the arcade, gave each turtle a special move, and let two players brawl side by side across eight levels.
