I pressed up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start!]]With a brand as large as [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'']], it is surprising how few '''video games''' have been produced for it. Until the obligatory [[Live-action film series|live action movie]] tie-in software deluge in 2007, Transformers video games were largely limited to the [[Japan|Japanese]] market.

==Other==
Though not a Transformers game, the [[Hudson Soft]] GameCube and PlayStation 2 game ''[[DreamMix TV World Fighters]]'', only released in Japan, features Transformers as both playable characters and cameos. Due to characters from at least three different companies being involved, legal entanglement makes it highly unlikely that the game will ever leave the country.

In the '90s, a game based on ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|Generation 2]]'' was supposedly in development for the Super Nintendo console, but the project was dropped. It has been rumored that this project then evolved into the SuperFX chip enabled game ''[[wikipedia:Vortex (video game)|Vortex]]''. This is supported by ''Vortex'' being made by Argonaut Software (the company that was supposed to release the ''Generation 2'' game), the fact that the game involved a polygon-based transforming robot, and the timing of the release.

==Fiction==
===Generation 1===
====Cartoon continuity====
[[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]] and [[Bumblebee (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Bumblebee]] met [[Carly]] in [[Robots Video Arcade]] while Bumblebee was playing ''Robot Resource''. {{storylink|The Immobilizer}}

====Marvel Comics continuity====
[[Ethan Zachary]] enjoyed playing ''[[Multi-World]]'' on his [[Energy Futures Industries|employer's]] computer after hours. When [[Decepticon]]s and [[Autobot]]s showed up to fight over the [[hydrothermocline]], Zachary proposed settling their differences by playing a game of ''Multi-World''. [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]] won by cheating, so [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] agreed to allow himself to be destroyed, per the initial agreement. {{storylink|Afterdeath!}}

Later, Zachary allowed Optimus Prime's personality (which was backed-up on a [[floppy disk]]) to exist as a character in the game [[Hyper-Fax]]. {{storylink|Pretender to the Throne!}}
