Game & Watch gets a makeover

Available from ThinkGeek for the small price of $8.99 USD, these exact recreations of their 80's counterparts look to be worth every penny. Obviously the Donkey Kong game has Mario leaping over barrels to rescue his damsel in distress, whilst Link must navigate complex dungeons in Legend of Zelda. These also keep excellent time!

So who else plans on picking this up with us?

These things have been around for ages. I've got three of them (Octopus, Fire and Helmet I think) ...

Isn't it a bit odd that Gameboy-looking G&Ws are being sold in the era of the DS, which looks noticeably similar to the original G&Ws?

Ahh, Game And Watch

Nintendo's oldest franchise revived

W00t

(this is one of the reasons why Super Smash Bros melee was so great, i wouldn't know all this about Game and Watch otherwise)

My sister has one of these. Basically, i's about as good as the typical tiger games from back in the days. very blocky movement and hellish to get the timing to.

I think I'll stick to twilight Princess, thanks.
