Pretty nerdy, but lately I've been having part of my dreams sneak in this shit where I buy those "Mini Classics" Game & Watch remakes. Usually it's pretty much some Mario game, either something not even in the collection or something manipulated. Shit like Super Mario Bros. 3 keep showing up, then some Donkey Kong thing.

I mean seriously everytime I'm near a store shelf there's fucking Mini Classics that I never heard of.
Maybe it's just that time of year. Lately I've been collecting a decent-shape Game & Watch for each Christmas. I got the original SMB, and Bomb Sweeper. I got shitloads of Mini Classics, but the thing that's always pissed me off is how there's really cool ones of like the Multi Screen series that I NEVER see on shelves.

There's like an internet review of shit like Zelda and Oil Panic, but those things never show up.

I had Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Parachute, Fire, Octopus, and Mario's Cement factory.

There's plenty of other ones. Nintendo has like 20 fucking companies in a Mini Classics deal. So many of them have different games. It's retarded because you literally are exposed to only a variety depending where you go and are. These things have been shooting out since 1998 and sometimes they get discarded from stores. Last time, Wal-Mart didn't carry them anymore, but now they brung them back from the most popular deal they got, where they slap a bunch of Mario 64 designs on the package, and they have a mute and pause function.

Just today I got Mario's Cement Factory for like the 3rd goddamn time. The first time was a different company because it was yellow. So far I only seen 3 versions of sets from the companies Nintendo worked with.

There's some crazy shit too. Sometimes they're not even Game & Watch games. They have shit like Yu-gi-oh. There's Smurfs and Tetris somewhere. I heard that Tetris was SUPPOSED to be an actual G&W, but I don't know if the Mini Classics version is what it was supposed to be or if it's brand new. I can actually imagine Smurfs being planned because G&W stuff like Snoopy Tennis, and some Mickey Mouse shit, was released.

Anyways yeah. I guess this is a Game & Watch discussion.

Game & Watch rules. They totally need to make a Game & Watch Gallery 5. I remember one of my friends played a G&WG cart I had and he thought I was a dork because I had 1,000 or near 1,000 points on most of them. He didn't understand that you needed to get a lot of points to unlock other games. I loved the Modern version of Mario's Cement Factory, that was really fun. It was so cool how they remade the G&W games with Nintendo characters. Fire, Octopus, Egg, Chef, Mario Bros... there were some really fun ones.

I should get out those carts again and try to beat them 100%. I have all 4. It pisses me off because on a few of them like Egg I have 995 points, so if I had stayed alive for like 5 more points I would've beaten it fully, and these games take FOREVER to get to 1,000 points on, you've gotta play for like 30 minutes.
