Customer Ratings & Reviews

For anybody who loves retro gaming, the original NES, or Mario Bros, this item is perfect. This handheld device contains Super Mario Bros and Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels, along with an addictive low tech game. The picture is great, and it can fit in your pocket. Being rechargable also helps. Just to note, this is not a Gameboy, nor does it allow for additional games.

This little thing is AWESOME!! The emulation is spot-on for Super Mario and Mario 2. Ball has become a household favorite with my son and I competing for high scores. It's really compact, sturdy, and very well made. You can't beat this little gem. And the fact that it takes me back in time to being a kid and wanting a game and watch for Christmas... is a plus as well!

Excellent game remake! Reminds me of the good old days

Nice little handheld. Good battery life. Great screen!

This is a really cool collector's item! Keep in mind, though, that that is exactly what it is: a collector's item. It definitely plays Super Mario Bros. well! But if you just wanna play Mario, there are many cheaper ways. But as a piece of Nintendo history for fanatics and collectors, this thing is awesome, well-built, and plays well!

This is a great little system. Screen is bright and sound is clear and crisp. Batter lasts plenty long to play on trips. The fact that it contains 3 games is a bonus. Charge and turn it on and your ready to go. Its also nice that you can pause and come back later at anytime and progress is saved.

This little handheld is better than I expected. The screen is really bright and crisp. The controls are almost just like the original Nintendo pad. If you're a fan of these games, I would recommend this. It saves where you stop playing on each game and there are cheats to make the games easier. It fits nicely in your pocket too.

This was my first one to own and I’m glad because it’s such a beautiful little handheld filled with a lot of cute hidden things. I love how colorful it is and great to play the Mario games on the go. This should be in everyone’s little collection if you don’t want to play it. It looks great displayed because of the box.

It’s surprisingly well made for what it is. And a great call back to the days of the original game and watches. The Mario games and Ball are still fun, and the Time clock is very cool. Would love to just plug this thing in and leave it somewhere as a clock. It’s a great collectors piece for Mario’s 35th anniversary.

It is smaller and lighter than I would've thought. There is no stand so when you have it in clock-mode you have to lean it against something else. I did get it on sale which was a better value. The screen is very bright which is nice and the sound is crisp for a small gadget. The instruction are minimal. Online can answer more questions. A nice collector's item for a Mario fan.

A great piece of nostalgia. If you are looking for a collector's item, the box looks fantastic and should stay in great shape on a shelf. If you're looking for a fun gadget to play and display, this is it! While nothing 'special' in the sense of nothing new from Nintendo, it is a neat little system.

As someone who had an original game and watch back in the 80's, this was an impulse nostalgia purchase. Granted that the game and watch that I had originally received as a child was the dual screen Donkey Kong one, it's still great to see Nintendo release this. Gone is the monochrome screen that my original one had. This is a fully colored screen, and similar controls to the original. The pad itself looks like an old school NES (Nintendo Entertainment System - 1980's) controller. There are some quality of life improvements such as volume, brightness, battery indicator, and it charges via a USB-C cable. The packaging is great! The games included are the original Super Mario Bros, the Lost Levels, and Ball, which is a very old school looking juggling game. All in all, I love the effort Nintendo put into releasing something so retro. The build quality is definitely there. The colors of the small handheld pop, and it's definitely worth picking up for people who grew up with game and watches, and for those who just love retro games.

This is a very cool item. The storied history of the Game & Watch series continues into the present with Super Mario Bros. You already know the game, and, yes, you can easily get it cheaper, but not as a piece of Nintendo history. The clock itself is also quite fun!

Fun little reboot! I love the Mario Games and the battery lasts awhile. Controls are tiny but good enough to play in my opinion. Great to have bedside or to take with you. Just wish it came with a case. I use an old sunglasses satchel for mine.

As someone who’s only 27 I still have a soft spot in my heart for Nintendo’s early years. This Game & Watch is a nifty little device that is not only built well, but plays, looks, and sounds good too! Definitely recommend if you can find it for a decent price (don’t pay resellers ridiculous prices!!)

Nintendo knows how to weaponize nostalgia and this little game & watch is aimed right at those of us who grew up with Super Mario Bros. on the NES. The device itself is well constructed of plastic and aluminum to mimic the original Famicom colors. The screen is bright and the games are easy to see. The d-pad is a classic NES d-pad but the buttons are a squishy rubber. If you’re using it for a quick Mario fix it’s probably fine, but I wouldn’t consider this comfortable for longer gaming sessions. If you grew up with these games it’s a great little piece of nostalgia. That being said the Mario games have been made available numerous times overs the years in different collections and the other game included here is Ball...so yeah, if you’ve had enough of Mario and aren’t excited over Ball, this may not be for you. This is aimed at collectors and Nintendo fans. Either of those will probably be very happy with the Game & Watch. It’s a unique little collectors item to celebrate 35 years of Mario.

Great little game and watch. The d pad feels like the nes controller while the buttons are game and watch. Very nice screen, its can be seen from different angles. Sounds pretty good. The games are great, no issues i love that you can pick up where you leave off on them.

Excellent device for the retro gamers. Love the rechargeable USB-C battery. Screen is very vibrant and the 8-bit sound is enjoyable to hear again. My only complaint is it should have included Super Mario 3 as well to complete the Super Mario Trifecta.

This little device is a must own for a Nintendo and Mario fan. This is such a cool handheld. It has the vibrant color display and the fact that it can be used as a clock is awesome. I wish they came with a stand though to use It as a desk clock. I might have to make one myself.

Playing Super Mario Bros and the original SMB2 (known to most as "The Lost Levels" on the go is pretty nice, the controls work well, even if the buttons are a touch on the mushy side. The clock is very entertaining to watch, especially as other Mushroom Kingdom residents appear at various points during the day. There are cute little touches hidden throughout the experience that I won't spoil here. The three games are what you'd expect and faithfully represented, glitches and all...I was able to enter level -1 in SMB as expected. I enjoy that each of the three games and clock all have their own independent volume/brightness settings and the games will save your progress so you can pick up and play whenever you like. As nice as it is as a GAME player, it really misses the mark as an actual WATCH...After 3 minutes (unless it's plugged in), the device will go into rest mode and shut off the screen until the Power button (and ONLY the Power button) is pressed. I understand that a backlit LCD will drain battery, but it really would be nice to just glance at it as a timepiece. In addition, the Game and Watch does not contain an alarm function, making the "Watch" feature a novelty at best, but not really much else. It's a shame, because this would have been a charming to have while travelling, but as a timepiece, it isn't very useful.
