The World Video Game Hall of Fame is an international hall of fame overseen by The Strong and the International Center for the History of Electronic Games.

Video games become eligible for the World Video Game Hall of Fame by meeting four basic criteria:

• Icon Status - is widely recognized and remembered
• Longevity - is more than a passing fad and has enjoyed popularity over time
• Geographical Reach - meets the above criteria across international boundaries
• Influence - has exerted significant influence on the design and development of other games, on other forms of entertainment, or on popular culture and society in general.
