Nostalgia Hits: The Super Mario Game & Watch Is a Real Retro Gem
Nintendo once marketed a series of portable games called Game & Watch before the Game Boy became a worldwide phenomenon and a classic gaming platform. It was originally made available in 1980, and it was produced up until 1991. In contrast to the Game Boy, the black-and-white Game & Watch games could only play one game at once.
According to a 2020 report by CNN Business, the new Game & Watch is noticeably more modern even though it was designed to resemble the original with all of its '80s flair. It sports a color LCD screen and a rechargeable battery with a USB-C connector. Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, and Ball (the Mario version) are the three games it will play.
According to a report, like every Game & Watch gadget that was released after 1981, the new one can be converted into an alarm clock by pressing a button. This cool feature is a real steal for people rocking the 80s and 90s nostalgia theme in their bedrooms.
On its release in 2020, the mini console received great reviews mentioning how the revival console had good hardware and is a collector's item. Many saw the release of Game & Watch as a cool and fun way to revisit old Nintendo game series.
