In 1977, the video game industry experienced stagnation in the United States due to the video game crash of 1977, though the industry was still growing in Japan at the same time. The year saw the release of sequels such as Super Speed Race and Datsun 280 ZZZAP as well as several new titles.

The year's highest-grossing arcade game worldwide was Namco's electro-mechanical (EM) racing game F-1, while the year's highest-grossing video game was Taito's arcade racing title Speed Race DX, the second year in a row for Speed Race. The year's best-selling home system was Nintendo's Color TV-Game 6, a console that was only sold in Japan.
