Us: We want a N64 Classic
Nintendo: Here's a $50 Game & Watch
I'd like one.
@Mochi Maker I definitely want one but licensing will never allow it
@@CoryCDS
With Nintendo’s relationship with Microsoft being pretty good, I can see licensing Rare games such as Conker and Perfect Dark make the roster (except for GoldenEye 007 unless they can actually get Eon on board)
The closest thing we have now is super mario 3D all stars
@@TooCooFoYou I don’t think conker or perfect dark would be there being there rated m instead something like banjo kazooie
Part of me (the collector part) wants it. The logical part of me knows I wouldnt use it, and $50 is pretty high for basically a decoration....
You could buy 2 and sell one on eBay. They are somewhat harder to find and sell for $80-100 on eBay. If you can sell it for $100 you'll have got 1 for free and made some extra.
Skip a dinner night out. Bewm. Done. $50 shit out hours later vs $50 G&W there for you to gaze upon until your death.
Yeah but when you do use it. Really the price is fair I'm happy to pick it up
I purchased 2, one for me to play and one to resell some time in the future. Yeah the price is high for what it's actually worth but if you buy two you can resell the second one and get your money back.
I bought a Famicom GBA Micro last year and a GBC last year so I didn’t care too much what it costed, I just wanted to contribute to making them less rare in the future. Oh and it looks cool ig.
Just got mine. Very cool...does feel overpriced though. I feel like 35 bucks would have been the sweet spot.
People are wanting these though I bought 10 and have sold 4 already for well over 100 bucks. Cray
This thing costs $80 CAD after taxes in Ontario. Talk about overpriced.
@@DR.DisInfect You are a scumbag scalper my friend.
@@d-complexakasnypermclivedr9549 That may be the case, but no one is forcing those people to buy them at a mark up. If karma really cared, he’d be stuck with them because people would rather him squirm trying to sell them, than pay his asking price.
Btw i did an unboxing on my channel for this if any of you are interested.
Am I the only one who wants to take this back in time to the early 80s and have the best Game and Watch in the world?
Yeah I wanna go to a time before I was born
In the early 80s I had the best Game and Watch in the world, without having to go back in time
Can’t wait for people to figure out how to hack it
It was hacked a day before release haha!
Yeah but why.
@@danwong2191 more games
@@danwong2191 more features, like cheats in games, custom clock/skin, turn it into a music/video player, maybe even enable usb-c audio, etc
Wow I bet you could even get the la cockroaches song on there too.
I’ve been playing mine a lot. I actually have been using it mainly for Super Mario Bros 2. The device only playing 3 games changes one relationship to it compared to more versatile devices. It forces you to master the games that are there. That’s what I love about it honestly, it forces me to finally put some time into SMB2J, a game that really deserves more attention, but many people overlook due to its difficulty. But it’s the perfect game to hone your mario skills on.
@@wesleyswafford2462 and super mario 2 is a great game regardless. My favorite 2D Mario overall.
Can you Safe your
Game ?
This looks really cool but it’s hard for me to justify the purchase.
I would buy it if i got the chance.
@@johneygd Amazon appears to be selling them right now
@@TheJacobwoodward well thanks alot, but i am yet a member of it, i could take a rough search on ebay but i got to watch out for scalpers.
@@johneygd Gamestop is still selling them.
@@johneygd getting it for the novelty and collectibility of it. also it’s limited so there’s that.
I hope they do one of these for each of the 1st generation of Pokémon games.
Dudeee thatd be sick
@@dan_4531 with variant colors!
@@aspookyfox yea like pokemon blue with a blastoise picture and the system color blue would look so sick, pokemon yellow with the system being yellow with a pikachu picture, and pokemon red with a classic og charizard picture and the system color red would be pretty cool imo
Okay that I'd buy instantly
I wish they did this
This portable looks great and all, but it sucks that they couldn’t add Super Mario bros 3 on it
I think that was on purpose. You see the most constructive theory is: Lost levels was meant to be an expansion for the original game anyway so that’s why they included that. They are practically the same game play with some altered graphics tiles and a couple of extra obstacles for expert players. Mario 3 is a whole different game. The novelty of game and watch is also just one game on the machine really. Ball? Well that’s just simply a matter of reminding it’s game and watch homage!
@@KetwunsGamingPad Another fun way to look at it is that most original Game & Watches had a "Game A" and "Game B" for "Easy" and "Hard". JP Mario 2 is notorious for its difficulty, so it's like the system's "Game B".
@@ExaltedUriel That's exactly right! I actually didn't think of that, but now that makes some sense on the homage to the Game modes of the original G&Ws.
@@ExaltedUriel If they were shooting for such "accuracy" when it comes to Game & Watch games... why on earth would they use NES games in the first place? I'm confident in saying that the one thing that motivated Nintendo's choices here was greed and greed alone.
@@Cimlite Because it's a commemorative novelty item for Super Mario Bros. 35th anniversary and not Game & Watch's? People aren't paying 50 dollars for Mario 1 and 2, they're paying 50 dollars for a neat limited edition thing they can show off and maybe pull out when they're stuck somewhere and REALLY bored. Most people probably have ROMs of Super Mario Bros. on more devices than they remember putting it on. Everybody emulates. Nobody is buying this just to play a three-decade-old game.
Wish they put Tetris on it too.
Then it would be perfection..
I have a Tetris Microcard! It's the ultimate bathroom experience.
@•Winter Sparks • Game and watches have many games. Also this has Ball on it too B-A-L-L
@•Winter Sparks • W-O-W 🤦♂️
Tetris was never on this handheld.
@@bottlesaregreat2865 neither was this version of super mario 🤦♂️ Wow...
i will buy this game. and tell my kids that it was from my father when he was younger. XD
...I'm dumb. I only just NOW realized it's called Game & Watch because it's a game... but it also tells time.
I too, was also stupid until I read this.
OOOHHH
Oh my god how did I not realize this
That happened to me too.
This unit honestly surprised me. I picked it up because I was a big fan of the Game & Watch Gallery games. I thought it would be a neat little thing to have, but now I wish Nintendo does make more. Small, lightweight, physical buttons, and pause and save your progress in a flash. As many emulation handhelds there are out there, a sleep mode is a rare thing. Being able to take this out for a quick few moments and easily slide it back into a pocket is amazing!

@@maka2405 Omg you said ok boomer haha so funny lmao, I’m not even a boomer 😂
Still have my OG SMB Game and Watch from the 80’s and works perfectly.
I've been enjoying it immensely in short bursts so far. It has a really bright screen & impressively loud audio output.
No headphone jack? Hardly any games? Screen a tad poor? Bit of a novelty? Having grown up with LCD, one game themed devices (anyone remember Bandi's solar powered Frankenstein?), it's all part of the charm for me! WANT ONE!
Haha was not expecting that
Had us in the first half not gonna lie
Wife has just informed me that I'm getting one for Christmas 🎄 🙃👍
@@andrewbutler9533 My wife’s boyfriend told me I have to wait for Christmas too 🙄
@@xcadan5829 wait a minute your wife's boyfriend whats going on here
Got one, love it! So much nostalgia, as already have the two of the original Game & Watch devices from back in the 80s. Can’t grumble at the price as given inflation!
The fact that they didn’t add SMB3 kills it for me. Also the price isn’t justifiable. Wasn’t the Mini NES and SNES around $50-80 with 30+ games. That was so much better of a deal until the prices rose to $200. Game and Watch should’ve been $35 minimum but ig collectors will buy it and scalpers will sell it at 200% of its MSRP.
I finally bought two of these at the last minute (one to play with and one to have as an unopened trophy). It’s so pretty. The box is adorable. The clock is adorable. I love the extra “challenge” playing on the tiny screen offers. It’s pretty interesting playing a couple of NES games on a tiny back lit Game and Watch with a remake of Ball starring Mario. I have only had mine a couple of days. Had to grab it before March 31st after failing to find one during the holidays. It gives me the happies and hits those nostalgia buttons. My almost 4 year old daughter thinks it’s hers though...
1:20 I'm just under 20 and I absolutely adored the packaging. It in of itself is as much of a love letter to game and watch as the product inside is
Same
I've still got a Game & Watch 'Vermin' game, from 1982, still working as it should, uses 2 button cell batteries, that last for over a year! This new retro Mario one looks good, in the fact that apart from a modern screen , they've recreated the original look, brilliant, I'm 52 but very tempted by these relaunches, if just for a bit of nostalgic fun!
Heh that was the game Zelda came with. Its actually a lot of fun
Just got mine today, enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would
Does it have the full game
How long do you think it’ll be for this thing to be modded? 😁
About 3 hours. It's already modded. There's already a youtube video on it.
@@PixelRemedy link?
I'm sure it's as easy as getting a split usb-C charger and usb flash drive or something. You could probably easily take it a part and put a micropi in the console and take out the factory motherboard.
Considering it has 1024kb memory and that the SMB rom is 31kb, you could fit about 30 games on this. Not bad.
@@pyropyropyro8549 www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/11/the_super_mario_game_and_watch_has_been_hacked_already_and_it_could_fix_that_unfortunate_bug
Need to know where they got those acrylic stand
Not sure about this exact stand, but Rose Colored Gaming (just do a Google search) has acrylic stands for this model for sale.
@@etherealbirchwood5748 Thanks for the tip!
I would use Amazon but that’s my preference
I think is a card stand i have one that my friend gift me with the yugioh card
LOL At this point Nintendo is just taking advantage of people's nostalgia and bad financial decisions. They saw how easily they could sucker people in with the Virtual Store years back, then sold the Nes Classic at a premium in very limited quantities, (most of the games being easily accessible elsewhere for cheaper) then doing it again with the Snes Classic with less games at a higher price. It now culminates to this...thing. A cheaply made novelty that has three old games for a price that is barely cheaper than the Nes Classic that had 30 games on it.
People are buying this because they think it's collectible. That's just too funny! There's a reason why the original Game & Watch's are collectible. Aside from being from Nintendo, there aren't many that are in fantastic shape. (or have boxes, etc.) This thing being billed as a collector's piece is exactly why it will never truly be a collectible. There will be millions out in the wild still in the box 20 years from now. Guess what? That isn't a collector's piece. But you know what will happen? You know that very convenient rechargeable battery that they slapped in it? Take a guess what's going to happen to it in 20 years or less? If you answered with that mf swelling up 3 times its original size and destroying the system then, ding ding, you're a winner!
So there are 4 types of people who will buy this. Those types who would buy a Nintendo box with a turd in it and "display" it on a shelf, those who for some inexplicable reason are smug about buying a $50 pos with 3 whole games on it, (these are the same type who payed $250 for the Nes Classic but still bitch and whine about scalpers) those that buy this and "hack" it and put every Nes game on it even though they could have payed much less on a better system, then finally the scalpers who will buy as many as possible and charge double or triple because they know the Nintenidiots would buy a paper bag full of $h!t so long as there was Nintendo sticker and a picture of Mario on it.
Where did you purchase the acrylic stand? I’ve been looking for one to properly showcase mine but no luck. Thanks 🙏
Where did you get the clear stand for the game and watch?
I bought it last minute and love it. It’s a neat addictive handheld that is handy when you want something different.
I’m just still trying to figure out how to charge it
USB c
@@Matanumi eventually figured it out lol
Can they just re release the gameboy micro? I want one so bad
I still have 2 lol 😁
Why don’t you get one on ebay? Are they rare?
Goblin yea they are expensive af
They’re not that high over the launch price unless you want them in new condition
Can I always leave plugged in to display the time or will It ruin the battery??
The Game & Watch is a fun little device for young and old. I Pickd up mine today and enjoy all the little details on the box as well on the system. Its well made and defenitely a collectors peice.
For SMB anytime I want, it definitely think it was worth it. Now I can try like hell to finish the lost levels the way they were originally presented. Overall, nice job Nintendo. I also think my only complaint is the missing stand on the back.
Tbh, I wish they'd just remake game and watch games again in general. I'd spend 15$ on 'em for sure, cuz I love the aesthetic and would be fun to display them too.
Looking forward to mine arriving sometime on Saturday!
Are there checkpoints? Or do I need to start again when It’s game over?
They should give us all the classic game & watch games
Looking at eBay prices I'm exceptionally glad I pre-ordered one of these units.
There's two variations released the Japan and the US variation. Any differences between the two? And which one is the best? Thanks!
could someone please answer my question if I leave it plugged into the charger to always display the time will it ruin the battery or does it have a power bypass that won't overcharge so I can keep it plugged into display the time always
I once owned the Donkey Kong and Zelda game and watches. I miss those. They were lost when someone torched my garage.
I had a StarFox one. Those game watches were pretty neat.
Awww life is a bitch
@@ehrichan6726 Yes...but she knows where I live.
It's a cute novelty that scalpers will likely sell for hundreds second hand.
Yep. No longer available on Amazon at MSRP.... Many listed for double and triple..
Don't buy them. Scalpers deserve to lose money.

Best Buy has them listed and available for purchase I just checked 69$ Canadian
Good review, I just bought mine! End of video music credits, for the Super Mario World piano cover? Its so nice and relaxing.
Where did you get those awesome display stands? Also great vid
I picked one up and I was pleasantly surprised, it takes mario from a daunting game that guilt trips you into trying to finish it, and it makes mario into a simple arcade game it should be, it's like Yachtzee, just, casually play, if you die, try again, and you can play over and over and just casually learn the original game and appreciate it without the pressure of playing such a simple game on a console
Yes!! I couldn't have said it better myself.
Also is very fun to share with others because of how simple it is compared to consoles someone can pick it up and figure out the controls in seconds.
@@TheTyisawesome exactly, literally the only thing that is not straightforward is the b to run faster, jump and move, no ground pound, no spin dash, just back to basics... Its much nicer...
Got mine yesterday its amazing my kid loves it i love it thank you nintendo.
6:03 this would be my problem with it as well. It's a cool little device, but they really should've put all of the NES Mario themed games on it -- At least Yoshi's Cookie! ;)
Does anyone know where he got that little dislay stand? Really want one to display it in my gaming room out of the box but need one of these to do it.
People over 40 will love the packaging
Those not born yet in 1991 will want this for their collection
What about people in-between?
Enjoy your 30s. It goes rapidly down hill after that... ;D
These will be on ebay for mega money one day
What's the best way to charge this without an official Nintendo usb ac adapter? Can you use a phone block or the switch charger cord?
@@TG-kt9vg have you successfully used it without hurting the game and watch?
Curious where did you purchase the game and watch stand from :) thanks
Kind of annoying that the video maker can’t answer this question. BUT, rose colored gaming has some cool stands.
Would love to know where you get your stands used to display these.
i think it's rosecoloredgaming.com
If Nintendo ever does a legend of Zelda one that plays the original the legend of Zelda on NES, I’ll buy it :)
Came back just to find a comment like this
Great review! May have to scoop this up for the nostalgia.
The American Mario 2 was my first Mario game. If they had that on here I would buy this in a heartbeat for the nostalgia.
First! Also, I got one of these this morning and I love it. I have a Game and Watch collection and this is a great piece for it!
If they do make a Zelda one I’ll get that one instead. This one isn’t worth it enough considering you can play the original Mario bros on anything but a block of mf butter
Zelda Game And Watch can be with Zelda 1, Adventura of Link, Links Awakening, Oracle of Seasons and Ages and A Link to the Past
@@HanzoHimemiya that would def be priced at $199.00 USD
It’s happening!
Hi, can you tell me if is there in the Time mode Clock alarm? Thank you. Josef
Nice video! Anyone knows how to set the time on these things? What does the ACL button do?
I am 30 and I still appreciated the box lol. 90s kids got shown a lot of 70s and 80s stuff too you know lol.
I just bought it .
And yeah this will wind up being a collector's item so hang on to it and don't abuse it
Dude can you ground pound? I cant
What’s this music that plays during the end card and where can i search to find it
I somehow was able to find these still at my local Walmart and about 10 of them in fact. I finally bought one and I can’t wait to try it!
Right now in 2023, i got mines for $27 at Walmart
That's pretty slick! How'd you swing that? I just looked it up and it says it's at lowest $40.
@@jaredrush4302 if you find some at Walmart, then they'll probably be about $27.03 and that includes tax. I don't know about the Legends of Zelda edition but the Mario one is cheaper than the price it tells you
Mark my words: a donkey Kong one will be announced later this year.
We got a Zelda one.
The new game and watch is it the full Mario games or just certain levels ?
6:29 yeah during the announcement I thought for sure they'd include the G&W SMB but instead they only included Ball, which is weird. I don't know if I'd want SMB2 (USA) and SMB3 in there though since this is supposed to be a celebration of the first game... but heck if they wanted they could have filled the entire console with alternate versions of that game: include the NES original, its Japanese sequel, the All-Stars SNES version of both games, the Game & Watch version, the Game Boy SMB Deluxe, and why not Vs. Super Mario Bros., and All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros.
Now THAT would have been a true celebration of the original game.
It’s a collector item. I got mines coming.
Don’t let people convince you that this overpriced little device is a collectors item. This particular device has got no real history to it, it’s not old stock that they happened to have laying around. It’s a nostalgia piece that just so happens to be coming out before Christmas. They’ve offered nothing with this $50 little hand held that you can’t already get other places. The novelty with wear off in about a day and a half, and then it’ll sit there on a shelf. This “collectors” item will be collecting dust by Valentine’s Day. It’s a pure money grab for Nintendo, and nothing else.
Right, why did they put Mario's head on the sprite for the person in Ball and not just use Mario the Juggler?
I guess Ball is more iconic? It's probably the most famous Game and Watch, and it was the first.
Idk, doesn't matter much.
@@kirin1230 Yeah, but basically everybody knows that by now and they give Ball enough credit already. Mario the Juggler was the LAST ever Game and Watch unit, so I feel like it should get a little more appreciation.
Where’d that SMW outro come from? I like it.
Oooh, need one of those acrylic stands!
well it's from rosecoloredgaming.com although stock is low for now because of c***d-19
It should have been no more than $30 though.
Getting one for each of my kids and one for myself. Than I'm done with gaming entirely.
You are a good father
Until they release the Virtual Boy mini at least.
Sure you are ...
For $50 a piece you should just use that money to get them a switch to play.
Why don't you wait for it to come out on the ps5 or xbox
How do those a,b buttons feel? Are they responsive enough to let you actually finish Lost Levels?
Yes they are in fact!
Now a dum question, where could i find display stands like the ones in the video anyone know?? amazon maybe?,
It is a Business card holder
I don't think Amazon is going to post this, so I'm posting this where I can. My review of the new Super Mario Bros. Game and Watch: 1 out of 5 stars.
This little bit of hardware is such a disappointment. While it isn't terribly executed, its flaws far outweigh the $50 price tag, and that's assuming you're able to get it at that low of a price.
Getting the good out of the way, it does feel put together decently, and the screen quality is pretty good. I read a review praising it to no end, and while I don't think it deserves that much praise, it's good. They seem to have hacked the games a little bit to operate without a select button, so you're able to select two player mode or Luigi in The Lost Levels. However, that's where the compliments end.
First, the screen! Yeah, I just got done praising it, but it's far too small for proper 4:3 TV games. There's a reason why the late 90s Super Mario Bros. Deluxe for Game Boy Color had a more limited field of view compared to the NES original. I never played the Game Boy Advance NES classics port, but in the Game and Watch's own right, it fails. Everything's too small, and if you're playing the game in a position that isn't with your arms scrunched up to your face, then the screen's too far away which just makes everything on the screen look even smaller. The size of the screen may have been adequate for the LCD games of the classic Game and Watch games, but it's just simply inadequate here.
The A and B buttons are a problem. They are smaller than NES controller buttons. That's not too much of a dealbreaker. It may help mitigate the next complaint, but they are smaller. I get it, they were going for a Game and Watch look and feel. However, this is NES Super Mario Bros. Anyway, the buttons are also rubbery and convex instead of NES controller smooth and concave. Imagine if the material for the NES controller start and select buttons was used for the A and B buttons and arced out towards you. This is a problem if you're holding down the B button to run and wish to slide your thumb a little bit on the B button to position it to roll onto the A button to jump while still holding the B button down. The smooth NES buttons made this easy. The Game and Watch buttons make this feel like you're fighting it if you're out of position and need to slide into position. The small size of the buttons somewhat mitigates this, but it's still a poor feel. This didn't make me lose any lives (yet), but it's still a problem that takes me out of the experience. Also, the B button is awfully close to the protrusion for the screen. Sometimes my thumb hits part of the protrusion while I'm trying to press the B button down. That's also a problem. The d-pad is at least adequate. There's not a lot to say about it.
The software selection is no surprise. Super Mario Bros. 1, The Lost Levels, and a Marioified version of one of the most famous Game and Watch games, Ball. The first two are better played on a 3DS or a Switch when you're on the go. Seriously. It's much easier to see what you're doing on one of those systems. If you get a Split Pad Pro for the Switch, it brings you even closer to the NES experience. I'd also argue that the Game Boy Color port, Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, is a better option for on the go play than trying to play the Super Mario games in full frame on the tiny screen provided by this Game and Watch unit. And then there's Ball. If you're paying $50 to play Ball, then you're paying too much.
Moving on to the clock function, it's nice, but it's not $50 nice. It's not $50 nice on multiple levels, as a matter of fact. Yes, there are Easter eggs. You can change visual themes. It's got Mario doing Mario things. It's so thoroughly meh. There's some kind of seconds hand that seems a bit out of sync. It begins to sound more intense when it's on one side of the screen, presumably when it's about to change the minute, but it doesn't seem to actually sync to the changing of the minute. It doesn't seem to make much sense. You can turn the volume down to get rid of the strange sound which makes things a little bit less awful. Also, there's no kickstand like in older Game and Watch games, so that's a problem if you were planning on standing it up for your alarm clock. Oh wait, that's not actually a problem because this unit doesn't have an alarm clock function. I bought this thing on the idea that it would have an alarm clock. Many classic Game and Watch games included an alarm clock function after a certain year. Why can't this thing be as good as something that came out in the 80s?
There's also the matter of the placement of the USB charging port. Did it have to be directly in the center of the right edge of the system? Couldn't they have moved it up a bit? While it doesn't block your hand from being in a position that allows you to reach the A and B buttons when you have the plug inserted for charging while trying to play the system, it does push your hand further down than you may usually have it. This is the one thing that makes me the most irritated when it comes to this new Game and Watch. They didn't have to make it this way, but they did. They could have certainly moved the connector on the circuit board up a little bit and moved the power button to the top of the system, but they didn't. With my big man hands, a need to charge the unit means that I can't comfortably hold the system to play it, and that's something that's very un-Nintendo in the world of Nintendo handheld consoles. They've been at it for three decades. Certainly they could have foreseen the position of the charging port being a problem.
Finally, regarding the hack to Super Mario Bros. 1 that lets you play two players on one system, that means that the game is now a pass the controller two player alternating game. Nintendo released a pass the controller game in the year 2020 where touching a surface may pass along literal death in the form of Covid-19. Tremendous work, Nintendo. You could have just removed two player entirely, but instead you released an object which encourages you to use it in a way that can be hazardous to your health. This may be the gaming blunder of the year, and we've had so many strong contenders this year.
The one and only good thing about buying this disappointing little $50 trinket is that it comes with the most perfect tiny USB cord for Android Auto in my truck. No, this disappointing little $50 trinket doesn't come with a USB power adapter. You have to provide that yourself. They couldn't make me too happy. However, the USB cord fits my truck and my phone in the one cup holder that I keep it in when using Android Auto so perfectly that I went outside with no shoes and jacket on in the middle of fall in the middle of cold November to test it out, and it worked. I was so happy.
Honestly, I think the way they could have improved this system would have been to make this a collection of old Game and Watch games like Nintendo did with the Game and Watch Gallery collections for Game Boy, The original Super Mario Bros. Game and Watch game could have been the marquee game, and they could have included other Nintendo oddities like Mario's Cement Factory and Flagman along with Ball and other single screen Game and Watch games. While old Game and Watch games aren't tremendously engaging gaming experiences, a collection like this would be an interesting way to highlight Mario's and Nintendo's history and a more economically sound one at $50. And an alarm function with a kickstand would should have been there. I don't know why it's not. I was at least expecting to use this Game and Watch as an alarm. An expensive novelty alarm, but one that I thought was going to make me happy.
Seriously, I can't rate this as zero stars, but at least the one star exists for the supremely convenient USB cable that this unit comes with. I can't overstate how happy I am with the USB cable. It declutters my truck that much more.
Someone will hack it and it'll become the best official way to play Nes and GBC games
If it’s hacked then it’s not official.
@@AidanRahder ?? Do you not understand what I mean?
@@GhibliNova To me it looks like you’re saying if you hack it to play more games it will be the best way to play those games. But you said best “official” way which is incorrect.
@@AidanRahder ah I see, well what I meant was that this will be the best way to play these games on official hardware. Which even hacked is still official hardware, like how I use an official Snes Mini with an official Snes controller to play Terranigma :)
@@GhibliNova Ok. That makes sense
does anyone knows if it includes the option to set an alarm?
Would be nice if Nintendo gave the option to download more classic G&W games 👍
Still got a nice little collection of G&W including the first one I received as a Christmas present, Rain Shower back in 1985.
They should launch one with POKÉMON games!!!
my bf just surprised me with it tonight. i mentioned it ONCE. 💜!
Anyone know who sells the Lucite stand the feature in this video?
Seriously where the hell is every reviewer getting these classy ass display stands (0:10).
I want one!
People saying this is a decoration but I’d probably use it a lot especially on road trips
Good bathroom gadget too!
@@TheTyisawesome that is a great idea! I will never count tiles on the floor again!
You do realize that just because a word is abbreviated like say, oh I don't know "Brothers" to "Bros." Does not change the pronunciation, it is still pronounced as "Brothers"
Amen. It got annoying immediately.

6:30 What is that tiny yellow Game Boy-esque console on the right?
wait where did u get the stand at 1:40???
“Is it worth it?”. Please, you are an official nintendo channel and even though any nintendo game/console is bad, you will say “buy it!”...
I grabbed 5 of them
And unless you’re giving them away as gifts, you’re the reason people can’t get one. Unnecessary greed.
@@thedaily30 if ur that mad I’ll sell you one.....$160 usd
only 5?
buy 50 more unit wont hurt you right?
.
anyway, i appreciate your generous decision, Mr. GOOD SCALPER :)
Does anyone know if the watch could stay on constantly if plugged in? is that safe?
This is a beautiful little handheld. Good 3 games too 🕹💿✌️
Anyone know if there’s a way to shut off the automatic sleep mode?
I wanna use this as a full fledged clock.
If you keep it plugged in, it won’t go to sleep 😉
