Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The battery lasts surprisingly long and the small screen isn’t as bad as i anticipated. I know the measurements are listed, but i still envisioned this being slightly larger. My only gripe is that it doesn't have an 1/8” headphone jack–only a speaker.... Read More

Zelda 1, zelda 2, link’s awakening, and vermin. Speedrunners - these seem to be the original unaltered versions. I really like that they made another game & watch model just like the one for super mario bros. First the mario version and now this o... Read More

It's amazing how much i'm used to a controller with thumb-sticks now. The controls are very responsive and enough to beat zelda 2. The plastic feels good and the * are responsive, if maybe a little small.

Packaging/appearance

A little disappointed that the stand was just part of the cardboard packaging, but i'm happy to finally have zelda and link bac... Read More

Biggest con, was the condition of the packaging, as u can see if the photo i uploaded.

Competitiveness

Yes, they could’ve done better, like adding lonks awakens dx or the capcom zelda games found on the gameboy color.

Most folks who are familiar with the series most likely played it 1st on the nes or famicom as it was called in japan.
