Bomberman refers to the 1983 or 1985 debut games in Hudson Soft's Bomberman series. Though it is often known for the 1985 Famicom Disk System and 1989 Nintendo Entertainment System versions, Bomber Man was originally released in 1983 for multiple NEC, Sharp, Sinclair ZX81/Spectrum, Fujitsu FM-7, and MSX platforms (home computers) in Japan. In Europe, it was graphically modified and localised to some of those platforms as Eric and the Floaters[2][3], followed by the 1984 MSX game 3-D Bomberman.

It features Bomberman, who is a robot that must destroy walls with bombs to find doors, leading to further rooms. Bomberman must avoid enemies, and can obtain items to help him.

In 2004, Nintendo published a Classic NES Series port of the Nintendo Entertainment System game for Game Boy Advance.
