Old School meets Future School

How many of you actually remember the Game & Watch? If you don't, it's probably because it predates even the Gameboy! Anyways, Chogokin Drossel discovered one the other day and had fun "playing" with it :)

    Come to think of it, I never had actually held a G&W in my hands.

      They are quite cool. Plastic body with a metal front face and actual glass screen. The buttons are made of rubber, while the D-Pad sometimes is, sometimes is plastic. Did you know that Nintendo copyrighted the Cross d-pad from the days of Game and Watch? That's why every single game controller not made by Nintendo doesn't have a true cross d-pad style like Nintendo's! O_o
