Game & Watch was a portable LCD
game device sold by Nintendo in
1980. In addition to including both a
game feature and a watch feature, its
pocket-sized dimensions made it a
popular platform for portable gaming.
Since the release of Ball in 1980, the platform evolved to include wide-screen and multiple
screen options, and now the three most popular games from the Game & Watch platform,
Oil Panic, Donkey Kong and Greenhouse, are available for the Nintendo DS.
STARTING A GAME
Select the game you want to play from the start menu
screen, and then press either the START Button or the
A Button to go to the game’s title screen. Each game
allows you to choose either Game A, for new players,
or Game B, for more advanced players.
The Alarm Settings screen is shown by either
touching the ALARM SET panel in the title screen
or by using the +Control Pad to select that panel
and then the A Button to launch it. Time is set
using the +Control Pad. Alarms are set with the
A Button and canceled with the X Button. The B
Button will return you to the title screen.
