@coolboymew Why can't it just simply be a Nintendo themed alarm. I don't need these borderline botnet, smart-alarm gimmicks. Who the fuck tracks their own sleep activity?

@xianc78 Nintendo bought a whole company for this kind of device IIRC
@VD15 @xianc78 the Zelda one they did is legit amazing. Good amount of games, all versions of the games available (ALL languages versions for LA). All games has new cool ass cheat codes. The clock mode is extremely ambitious and it can fucking be played
@coolboymew @VD15 @xianc78 The Zelda game and watch is my desk clock to this day. I beat Zelda 2 for the first time on it. I'm still disappointed that they didn't do a Metroid or Mario 3 game and watch.
@xianc78 @VD15 @coolboymew Zelda ii is rough. Use a guide. I definitely respect it more after I beat it.
@Rocket @VD15 @xianc78 A kirby one would be viable. Dreamland 1, 2, Adventure, Pinball, Star Stackers, Block Ball

So is a Wario one probably. Land, Land 2, Wario Land (Land 3), Wario Land 2, Wario's Woods. Wario Blast if they feel especially generous but I doubt they'd want to license Bomberman for this
@coolboymew @VD15 @xianc78 Kirby or Wario would be great. Kirby's pinball land is one of my favorites.

@coolboymew @VD15 @Rocket I think Nintendo is only willing to do franchises that were actually on Game&Watch back in the 1980s, despite the actual Game&Watch games not appearing on the rereleases.

@xianc78 @VD15 @Rocket Probably, which is a bit sad and nonsensical. I mean they didn't put the Zelda Game & Watch, on the Zelda Game & Watch :dumb_wojak:

A Pokemon RBY and a GSC ones with wireless trading would also be cool AF

Can't think of any other franchises with as much games that it could work with. Metroid would need Metroid + II and probably pair it with Kid Icarus (NES + GB). Mario needs another one with SMB2, 3 and probably a bunch of other bonus games they could easily include

Snes games would look sharp as fuck on that small screen like the DKC games but I don't know if the board is strong enough for that and a G&W featuring just DK, DK Jr and DK 3 would kinda suck even if they need up throwing all NES Black Box games on it

@coolboymew @VD15 @Rocket
>I mean they didn't put the Zelda Game & Watch, on the Zelda Game & Watch

Because that was one of the dual-screen games and even if they did make it that way, there would probably be people who would confuse the thing for a Nintendo DS.

@xianc78 @coolboymew @VD15 They could've done the two screen game and watch games the same way they did it on the game and watch gallery games for gbc. It actually worked great.
@coolboymew @xianc78 @VD15 I would buy a game and watch with the black box games, but I might be the only one lol
@Rocket @VD15 @xianc78 I dunno man, the Black Box games are kinda boring at this point and I don't want to really spend money specifically for that. They got made fun of during the Wii VC because 5$ a piece for them was retarded

They're the kind of games where you go "that's neat" if they're included for free in like, Animal Crossing or something. But otherwise... It's just kinda cheap? Like "Are you really attempting to make me pay for these again bro?"
@coolboymew @VD15 @xianc78 They need to bring back classic game collecting to animal crossing. Black box games. Game and watch games.

@Rocket @VD15 @coolboymew They would never do that because that would cut into their NSO sales.

@xianc78 @VD15 @coolboymew I don't disagree, but no one is subscribing to NSO for black box games. Nintendo's gonna Nintendo.
@Rocket @VD15 @xianc78 I agree. I feel like AC has been missing something since. the director of the game doesn't agree but I don't agree with him, there really has been something missing and having old arcadey games like this really completed the game IMO, something to do on the side once in a while

@coolboymew People are suggesting that this is the "Quality of Life" product that Iwata was talking about nearly a decade ago.

@xianc78 it absolutely is. Nintendo has been announcing stuff left and right for this

I recall they once announced a sleep thing that didn't release at all until the Pokemon Sleep on came out. Also the Wii? heartbeat monitor strap thing that never came out at all
@coolboymew @xianc78 I saw a Peppa Pig brand nasal aspirator the other day so I'm not surprised by anything anymore
