Editorial overview
What it is
Fire is a silver type Game & Watch video game unit that was initially released on July 31, 1980. The game is one of the best selling in the Game & Watch series selling an astonishing (albeit estimated) 1,000,000 copies worldwide. A re-release for the game was made for the Wide Screen units, which sold 200,000 more units that the silver edition. This particular version of the game was released on December 4, 1981.
In the game, you'll control two separate characters holding a stretcher of some sort. In the game, people are jumping out of a burning building, and your goal is to get them to safety by using the stretcher to bounce them into an ambulance, with most taking more than one bounce to get there.
