In 2020, Nintendo's Game & Watch, a piece of retro gaming history, was revitalized with the releases of Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda in 2021. Although these limited editions have been out of production for some time, it is still possible to find a brand new one at or below its original retail price. Luckily, Walmart currently has both editions in stock, making them excellent nostalgic gifts for the holiday season.
The Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch can be purchased for less than its original $50 price tag. The European edition is available for $40, while the North American edition is priced at $44. The region of purchase does not make a significant difference, with the only variation being the rating logo (either ESRB or PEGI) displayed on the packaging. On the other hand, the Zelda edition (US) can be purchased for its regular price of $49, which is still a good deal considering its current market value often exceeds retail price.
Super Mario Game & Watch (EU) -- $40 ($50)
Super Mario Game & Watch (US) -- $44 ($50)
The Legend of Zelda: Game & Watch -- $49 ($50)
Upon initial inspection, these units bear a striking resemblance to the Game & Watch devices introduced more than three decades ago. However, they boast significant improvements, such as a superior and more vibrant display (now in color!), a rechargeable battery, an enhanced directional pad, and a digital clock.
The Super Mario edition available for purchase features the iconic gold and crimson colors of the Famicom console. It includes pre-installed games such as Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, and Ball (Mario version).
As for the Zelda edition, it offers a selection of games including The Legend of Zelda, Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. This model stands out with Hyrule green accents, distinguishing it from the Mario-themed device.
These items are perfect gifts for Nintendo enthusiasts. If you're seeking more Nintendo gift ideas, consider this amazing bundle featuring Super Mario Bros. Wonder and a 12-month Switch Online Family membership. Additionally, check out this intricately crafted statue of Metroid protagonist Samus Aran, as well as this adorable Mario plushie with an elephant-themed twist.
