I am pretty sure Minesweeper was on Game Boy. And there are various versions of other games on various platforms as well.
Many of these games are on other platforms.
Microsoft included Minesweeper and Solitaire in the early versions of Windows to teach users how to use a GUI interface. Minesweeper to teach differential of left and right click, and solitaire to teach users how to drag and drop. Neither were previously needed for most users.
