So that was the mystery device?

130$ CAD? Fuck that lmao

@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

@coolboymew @xianc78 RETVRN

@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.

@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 @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

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 @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?"
