The most complete g&w historical video I’ve ever seen. Good job!
This is great stuff! Well done! 👏👏👏
I’ve gone and shared this video with all my friends as they really need to see this video. Thanks for making it!!
So glad this is how I found your channel! It was long ago, but I still remember this remarkable video!
So, basically, Game & Watch was for bored business adults. I mean, even though it wasn't what they exactly thought would happen to it, it's nice to know that they were thinking of the adults and not just the kids.
Very nice video. Needs more views. Thank you for making this.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
This is a really good video, a short documentary about the origins of Nintendo electronic games.
With so many aficionados of Nintendo and specifically of Game & Watch, it is a mystery to me that you don’t have millions of views.
UA-cam has its way of choosing which ones to “invite” people to watch, and it’s really a pity that they don’t show this one in the suggestions.
Anyway... thank you for sharing this, I have enjoyed it really very much! 👍🏻
Thank you so much! It’s very kind of you! Yeah, these are mysteries of UA-cam :)
Wonderful!
I have about 30 Game & watches and love them all!
Awesome collection!!!
I really enjoyed this video thankyou I feel old why because I was young when these game and watch games came out and bought them i have so many great memories thankyou 💓
Thank you so much! I’m very glad you liked the video. Stay tuned for more videos like this.
Way too little views, this is a great video!
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me!
I've been searching high and low for a quality documentary about Yokoi and the Game & Watch and yours is easily the most in-depth. I thought I knew quite a lot about the G&W, but even I didn't know that the Octopus diver was originally a fish or that the Crystal Screen series wasn't published in Japan.
You have a real knack and knowledge for creating video game history docs. Have you ever thought of making more?
And may I ask where you found all of this info? I know there are a few books about Yokoi and the G&W, but all of them have either never been translated into English or have been out of print for years and impossible to find these days T_T
Ive started documenting the entire series of Game & Watch on my channel- feel free to check it out and I’d appreciate any feedback- just click on the diamond logo- thanks
Amazing video, thank you.
Who's here because of the 2020 Super Mario Bros Game and Watch system?
I am
I am
I’m am and not I’m here thanks to Zelda and what is coming next (probably Kirby).
I like Turtles 🐢 🐢 🐢!!!🏄♂️🤙🏼🛹🤘🏼
Only 53 subs?????????

Man I loved the Fire game, can't find it anymore
This video is so enjoyable!
Thank you so much!
Rest in peace, Gunpei...
Great video. Could you provide your sources so I can read more about it?
I’m documenting the entire series of Game & Watch currently on my channel and would welcome the feedback- its individual games, just click on the diamond logo- thanks.
It's a great video on gw... But the background sound is more noise and can't hear you clearly..
Thank you for your comment! I will try to improve that in the next videos
Nice job!
What’s the music playing in the background? It’s strangely catchy.
Thanks for the comment! It’s a soundtrack called Flat Zone 2 from the Super Smash Bros game
The point of the story Thanks!
Very nice. I got one of the two screen Zelda Game and Watch. Still works too. 😁
Thank you! Wow, great game! 👍😊
and this is probably how the ds was born.
Agreed -move covered that in my channel where I’m documenting the entire series of Game & Watch- feel free to check it out and I’d appreciate any feedback- just click on the diamond logo- thanks

3:16
Waiting for my 4uca
Have you seen the new gam me and watch yet
Yep, already preordered :) it’s a bit strange to play the NES Super Mario on it, I associate Game&Watch with those simple electronic games but I’m very excited to try it and to have it in my collection. And yeah, there is a Mario version of the Ball g&w game on it!
You can’t yet
On GameStop’s website. For example - www.gamestop.ie/Other%20Products/Games/74931
Make more videos!!!!
Thank you! I will!
0:12 e's or a's?
My first game and watch is popeye.
Awesome game! Mine was Mickey Mouse
10:21 uhm thats not a switch its not suppose to have a d pad its supoose to have 4 buttions
This one is a custom 3rd party joy-con
Love this video, but wasn't the first generation of Game & Watch called Time Out?
Thank you for your comment. I didn’t know about it, but I found that the game&watch was distributed under the Time Out brand in the US. here is what I found on Reddit. Apparently in 1980, Nintendo didn't have any distribution networks set up in the United States, so they teamed up with the company 'Mego' to use their distribution channels, basically. This company already handled a number of other licensed toys of the era, so nintendo decided they would be a great first step. Another thing learned!
@@thepointofthestory2720 Ah, nice! A couple of my Game & Watches have a logo with CGL printed on the right hand side, which stands for Computer Games Limited which was a distribution thing for the UK, but they were bought out by Amstrad...
I don’t know how to use it
I’m doing a review of all the Game & Watch series currently and would like you to offer any feedback- i show how to play too, just click on the diamond logo- thanks
Do you include where Nintendo had their creator killed in the late 90s?
G A M E W A T C H
Issit belief of camera ever an exist of the way of using, that printing became the next belief of it, then the 1st inventor/starter died?
Can i subject-buy and ez job any technology here?
Maybe do a similar video on russian clones?
Thank you! Good idea, I will take it into account
Computer Mah-Jong looks like a basic game & watch like blackjack!
The commercial sounds like gay watch
waaay to many stockvideos/photos
What the fuck
is this a Russian accent?
Yep, but since I live in Europe now, the accent might be even mixed :)
Choose your character ,Mr GAME E WATCH 😎😎,my favorite fighter of smashbros séries ,congratulations for fantastic video 😃😃.
Thanks a lot! 🙂
@@thepointofthestory2720 I'm going to buy a switch in 2012, until then I have fun playing brawl smashbros on the wii and even if I don't have any more online, it's super fun.
I absolutely agree, it’s an amazing game 👍 have fun with your Switch when you get it! It’s an awesome console and has tons of great games
I don’t know if I’m supposed to listen to the music or trying to figure out your English. 🫤
