Introduction
You were bored, so you pulled out the old Game & Watch — a classic handheld device that was the precursor to modern-day smartphones and portable gaming consoles. You played on it for hours with no need to charge or connect it to another device. Now Nintendo is bringing it back, and not just as a nostalgic throwback — rather, it’s releasing an updated version of this old-school gadget on November 13: Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch.
Nintendo may have entered the modern games console race with its Switch and Switch Lite consoles, but it’s also looking to relive its glory days from the 1980s and 90s with a brand-new reissue of the Game & Watch.

The Game & Watch series is an iconic line of handheld consoles that were first launched by Nintendo in 1980. These portable devices were created for consumers who wanted portability in their entertainment, but still wanted to get some gaming done on-the-go. The original consoles came with only two buttons: A small green button for starting play and a larger red button for resetting progress when things went awry (which was often). Over time there were more than 50 individual models released before production ceased in 1991; they ranged from basic sports simulators like Boxing to more complex platformers like Donkey Kong Jr., all available at your corner convenience store where you could get milk or cigarettes depending on what time it was back then (note: this would never happen now).
With this new reissue line coming soon from Nintendo, expect them to include some form of classic gameplay as well as modern features such as HD visuals so that nostalgic gamers can once again experience those same feelings playing these classic games on their phones or tablets without taking up too much space or draining battery life!
The original Game & Watch was released in 1980.
The original Game & Watch was released in 1980, and it was the first handheld game console. It also happened to be the first portable game console, as well as the first one to use a liquid crystal display (LCD).
It had a black-and-white screen with a monochrome LCD and an included set of four games: Ball, Flagman, Fire and Oil Panic. Each game was played on separate screens; you could play them individually or switch between them with a button press.
The new Super Mario Bros. edition features a reissue of Super Mario Bros., the game which arrived in 1985 for the NES.

The game was critically acclaimed and popular among players, selling over 40 million copies worldwide since its release. It has been released on many platforms since then, including the SNES and N64.
The model also comes with a new game called Ball, which is basically a version of Pong starring Mario.
If you’re into retro games, this console is for you. It comes with a new game called Ball, which is basically a version of Pong starring Mario. The original version of Pong was released in 1972 and has been popular ever since. Ball is not the first time that Nintendo has brought back this classic game; they have re-released it on several platforms over the years. However, with the upcoming release of their latest retro console, this old-school game will once again be available to play on all your favorite devices.
In addition to all this gaming goodness, it has a clock and an alarm mode too, though you’ll probably want to use it all day as your main device given its battery life.
If you’re not a gamer, you’ll be able to use the device as an alarm clock or a sleep timer. The clock has a battery life of three years and it can last for up to three minutes (which is more than enough time). The alarm has multiple modes: snooze and sleep, which means that after you snooze the alarm will shut off and stop ringing until the next morning. It also has a countdown mode so if you want your kids to go to bed at 8pm sharp then this retro console will help with that easily.
The original Game & Watch devices were some of the first portable gaming consoles ever released, alongside Mattel’s Milton Bradley-produced Microvision, introduced in 1979.
The original Game & Watch devices were some of the first portable gaming consoles ever released, alongside Mattel’s Milton Bradley-produced Microvision, introduced in 1979. These devices were battery-powered and did not require connecting to a television set; unlike most modern gaming devices with similar functionality, they were also small enough to fit into a pocket or purse.
The Game & Watch line was produced from 1980 until 1991 by Nintendo and then again by Sharp/Nintendo beginning in 2016. The majority of these games feature simple graphics rendered as black and white images on liquid crystal displays (LCDs). They also include an LCD screen that shows the time when turned off; this allows them to function as wristwatches when not being used for gaming purposes.
Nintendo has created a retro handheld console featuring Super Mario Bros. that looks like a classic portable calculator and lasts longer than an iPhone between charges
The Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System is a miniaturized version of the classic 90s console that comes with 21 pre-installed titles. It offers more than 40 hours of gameplay and connects to modern televisions via an HDMI port.
The Game Boy Pocket was a small handheld game console manufactured by Nintendo, which was released in 1996. It has become one of the most popular versions among fans because it’s durable and reliable—and it continues to function even today!
The device can also be used as an alarm clock or calculator when not playing games on it, making it perfect for traveling or any other time you want something lightweight yet powerful enough to entertain you for hours on end (or at least until your kid needs attention).
Conclusion
If you’re hoping that Nintendo will release a new Switch soon, we’ll have to wait and see. For now, though, the Game & Watch seems like a perfect way to pass your time until then.
