Fun little system.
And a cool little Easter egg.
Is it a cash grab of Nintendo to release these? Maybe.
But it’s a solid product and a fun way to play some classic titles.

As a giant LoZ fan, I had to have this. The games all play awesomely, and it’s nice to see Japanese versions is the first two games with their slightly different soundtracks. Easy cheats make this a pretty fun pick up and play handheld for all ages/skill levels. The glowing Triforce on the back of the housing is an awesome little cherry on top. Worth the money to me 100%

I am very happy with this product. Bought it as soon as it was available, and I do not regret it. Three great adventure games within a cute, collectible device. I cannot think of any crticisms. As functional and playable as the Super Mario device released last year. Automatic save states for the games is a great quality of life function. Pick up and play for as long as you want, set it aside when your session is done, pick it back up and start at the exact moment you left off. It's just a simple and clean product. Bravo, Nintendo!

Nostalgic Masterpiece - A Must-Have for Zelda Fans

The Nintendo - Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda is a perfect blend of nostalgia and modern gaming charm. As someone who grew up with the original Donkey Kong Watch and Game (the classic orange double screen), this device brought back a flood of memories. My very first video gaming experience was thanks to my mom, who surprised me with that Donkey Kong game, and I still own and treasure it to this day. I was hoping to relive that magical feeling, and this Zelda edition does not disappoint.
The craftsmanship is superb, with a vibrant screen and responsive buttons that capture the essence of the original Game & Watch series. The inclusion of three iconic Zelda games is the cherry on top, offering hours of fun while also giving a nod to the franchise’s rich history. The device even doubles as a digital clock, just like the classics.
For anyone who has fond memories of the early days of handheld gaming, this is a must-have. It’s not just a game; it’s a piece of history that you can hold in your hands. Nintendo has done a fantastic job of honoring the past while making it accessible and enjoyable for today’s gamers. Highly recommend!

Like with the 35th Anniversary of Super Mario Bros, the original The Legend of Zelda from the NES has now also reached its 35th Anniversary and had its own Game & Watch mini-console released. This 35th Anniversary Legend of Zelda Game & Watch comes with more games and features than the 35th Anniversary Super Mario Bros Game & Watch, so this is an even better value. This comes with the 2 original NES games The Legend of Zelda and Zelda II: The Adventures of Link, as well as the well-regarded original Game Boy game The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. This Game & Watch also comes with typical Game & Watch features, such as a clock and a Link-themed version of the old Game & Watch game, Vermin. This is a fun, collectible Game & Watch mini-console that is great to introduce kids to the classic Zelda games, and is also great as a collectible for fans of the Zelda series that want some convenient and inexpensive access to the old games in a convenient portable pocket-size. The controls seem pretty solid and consistent true to original design, although the old Zelda games may take a fair amount of getting used to because of their unique and challenging original gameplay design. Like most old arcade and NES games, the games are very challenging, so they do require a solid amount of initial open-mindedness and patience to learn the unique control schemes and to master them and the enemy patterns. There's a lot of online hint guides and videos available if you or your kids ever need some extra hints or advice from getting stuck or lost. The games have a lot of replay value, as well, as you can challenge yourself to finding everything, or in future play-throughs you can challenge yourself to not acquire as much health or power, to your liking, after beating the games for the first time. There's little more satisfying out there as a gaming experience than to truly master a Zelda game! And this console comes with 3 full-fledged Zelda games to master if you so choose!

After owning this thing for a year. I can tell you guys now that this kept me from going insane while working at a carwash. It is nice and small to keep your grumpy managers from seeing and the battery life is long lasting, like very long lasting! If you want to buy this but feel iffy because of the price, honestly just get it anyways. This is perfect for either collecting or just leaving it around in your backpack/pocket in case you ever need to kill time. I totally recommend.
The quality is an 9 out of 10 plastic is fine and the buttons are rubbery and nice!!!
Also, this might be a spoiler to one of the Easter eggs, but I just recently found out that the back of the GAW lights up the triforce!!!! This is the reason it is a 9 out of 10 lol! Have fun finding the other secrets.

A fun and portable way to play the original Zelda, Zelda 2 Link's Adventure, Zelda Link's awakening, a Zelda themed Game & Watch Vermin. And the Zelda themed timer that can go up to 10 minutes looks neat with tri-force pieces that spin, and the clock shows link run around the original Zelda landscape while displaying the time, where link "beats the game" every 12 hours.
