From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

   Star Wars is an action game based on the 1977 film of the same name. It was released by Victor Interactive Software for the Family Computer in Japan on November 15, 1991 and by JVC for the Nintendo Entertainment System in North America in November 1991. An official mail order 'Hint Book' was available for the game upon its release. Two versions for handheld game consoles were released. The Game Boy port was developed by NMS Software and published by Capcom and released shortly less than a year later in 1992. The Sega Game Gear port was developed by Tiertex Design Studios and published by U.S. Gold and released in 1993. A Master System version was also released. The game was followed by a sequel, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. A counterpart of the game for the SNES, Super Star Wars was released as well.
   The object of the game is close to the storyline of A New Hope, where the user (playing Luke) has to pilot a landspeeder around Tatooine, collect R2-D2 from the Sandcrawler, Obi-Wan Kenobi from a cave, and Han Solo from the Mos Eisley bar, while fighting stormtroopers, sand people, and many other different enemy characters from the movies. After assembling all the characters, the user navigates the Millennium Falcon (in a first-person perspective) through an asteroid field to the Death Star (shields for the Millennium Falcon to withstand the asteroid field must also be collected in the Tatooine levels). Once arriving at the Death Star, the user is required to destroy the tractor beam generator, rescue Princess Leia from the detention block, then proceed to destroy the Death Star with the rebel fighters.

Videogame Console:

This ver­sion of Star Wars was de­sig­ned for the Ga­me Boy con­so­le, which was an 8-bit hand­held vi­deo ga­me con­so­le ma­nu­fac­tu­red by Nin­ten­do in the years 1989 - 2003. It was the first ever hand­held vi­de­o ga­me con­so­le with ex­chan­ge­able ga­me car­trid­ges, but it on­ly sup­por­ted black and whi­te screen. The Ga­me Boy con­so­le has been ex­tre­me­ly com­mer­ci­al­ly suc­ces­s­ful and has sold mo­re than 118 mil­li­on u­nits (in­clu­ding its suc­ces­sors Ga­me Boy Poc­ket and Co­lor). Its u­nit pri­ce on US mar­ket was $ 90. Mo­re in­for­ma­ti­on about the Ga­me Boy con­so­le can be found here.
