Super Nintendo built on the success of the original Nintendo by providing better graphics and sound, thanks to a 16-bit internal processor. Its game library included Donkey Kong Country, with the most realistic graphics of any console game up to that point, and Star Fox. Over 40 million Super Nintendos were sold between 1990 and 2003.
