    To be honest, I didn't even open it :) The retro gold packaging and clear sleeve is nice touch! Definitely an item to have in the collection, though Game & Watch was slightly before my time.

    It is well worth it if you enjoy the original Super Mario Bros. It comes with 3 games loaded on it and has manual options for volume and screen brightness, the screen is very bright!

    Nostalgia at its finest. Nintendo did an excellent job making this product. This Game & Watch is a great piece of collection. Must buy for Nintendo fans and collectors.

    Not as good as the original 1980s one

    I used to own a 1980s Game & Watch Popeye. New one does not feel premium, solid, and heavy as old one. The new one does not have built in stand for watch either. Made in Japan vs Made in China.

    I love everything from the packaging design to the device itself. The contrast between retro and modern is perfect. Going to hold onto this for many years to come.

    Quality Nostalgia.

    It’s well built, it is the same form factor as the original one from the 80’s and battery lasts a long time. It’s honestly very cool to see hardware like this pop up on the market from Nintendo. (I was born in the 80’s and grew up with the Game & Watch LCD Games, alongside the NES and Super Mario Brothers. This hits the “nail on the head” (so to speak) for my age range and for the nostalgia factor. Great Great Great Product, get one if you can.

    Perfect stocking stuffer

    Nintendo channels it's legacy with a perfect stocking stuffer. You can be assured of high quality product here along with amazing packaging. It comes with 3 games and has manual options for volume and screen brightness. It also uses USB-C for recharging the unit and has a battery indicator on the screen. The clock itself has Easter eggs that many Nintendo fans will enjoy. In addition, there is a secret on the clocks menu, where if you hold the A button, you will be taken to the "Drawing Mario Song", from Flipnote Studio 2010. The only thing missing was the kickstand like the original G&W had. Highly recommended and a good get for collectors.

    Neat, but more of a collector's item

    A neat, well-built device with some fun nostalgia. I think it makes more sense as a collector's piece than an actual value - there are so many ways to play Super Mario Bros 1 and Lost Levels, including on Switch Online or the virtual consoles of any number of Nintendo's past offerings. I also think a big opportunity was missed to include the actual Super Mario Bros Game & Watch game - which in many ways was the most ambitious and most impressive Game & Watch title - rather than the reskinned version of Ball that is included. The presentation and packaging is very nice, but it feels a few steps away from being as neat as it could have been for Game & Watch fans.

    You get Super Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros 2 (Japan version). Lots of fun to be able to pick up and play quick. Screen is vibrant and clear. Screen is small if you are used to playing 3DS or Switch in hand held mode, but you get used to it quick. Light weight and fits in your pocket better than your phone. A little pricey, but that’s Nintendo for you.

    Nostalgic twice over!

    I grew up borrowing Game & Watches from friends and played Super Mario Bros. with our first Nintendo System. This device had me nostalgic twice over in a single device. I guess Nintendo fans would purchase this as a collector's item (as I did). It doesn't offer much gaming wise. Build quality is good, sound can be loud (and annoying in Watch mode). Controls are small and uncomfortable after playing long hours. The screen is really small though -- but better compared to playing Lode Runner on an iPod Nano screen. If only Nintendo would offer uploading of other 8-bit games then this device would be a steal for its price.

    Fun way to play Mario Games

    I really like the Game and Watch. I bought it with the other Mario anniversary items such as Mario 3D All-Stars and the anniversary coin set. The game and watch is good quality with a great clear and bright screen. The battery life is pretty good lasting a few hours if you play games or weeks if you use it for the watch aspect. The game and watch has Mario 1 and Mario 2 (the lost levels) and ball toss. One thing I didn’t like is it didn’t come with a kickstand like the original game and watch’s did. You’ll need to buy a display stand or something to keep it upright.

    Way too expensive if you’re not a collector. As a collector myself, I love this little pocket toy. The device shell has an expensive, quality feel to it. It has a bright screen, but may be too small to make out what’s going on without holding it close up to your face. The sound gets fairly loud but is pretty poor quality. A major drawback is the two buttons; they are connected underneath, very mushy, and don’t feel at all satisfying to press, and They’re just far apart enough to be annoying when trying to run + jump with Mario. I don’t need to discuss the games it comes with as they have been around for decades and have plenty of releases and reviews elsewhere.

    Quality all around. Nice display and long battery using a usb C connection. Extremely small so it's very portable. The screen has no protector so you may have to buy a glass screen protector for major kid use. Includes three games and is user friendly for kids from 4-5 and upward. I use it sometimes more than my kid. It's worth the price for collectors as well. This is a limited product from Nintendo so buy while you can.

    Awesome portable game. Screen is too small for most people, but I still have my eyesight. The sound and game play is identical to original system. I wish the red buttons were firm red plastic like on original Nintendo remote. But it is intended to be like the Game & Watch games of the late 80's. And they hit a home run, especially with the color screen, the USB-C charging and the battery life. Great Toy to lay around on the table and play a quick level when you have 3-4 minutes.

    The Game and Watch: Super Mario Bros system was made to celebrate the 35th Anniversary of the Super Mario Bros game on NES. But I feel they also tried to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Game and Watch with this release as well. The console includes the NES versions of Super Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels (Known as Super Mario Bros 2 in Japan and on this Game and Watch system) as well as a version of the first ever Game and Watch game, Ball, with Mario as the player character. The Game and Watch also functions as a clock, and the clock feature has 35 secrets to find. The games also have little secrets as well, such as a new Infinite Lives mode in Super Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros 2 (The Lost Levels) and a way to play as Luigi in Ball. Overall the system is a neat collectible but isn’t necessary to own for the average fan of Mario. You can play Super Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros 2 (The Lost Levels) on Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Switch Online service. It’s also a little pricy at $50.
