    I have that DS dictionary “game” with G&W on it. That thing was a lifesaver when I lived in Japan. This was before smartphones, so you couldn’t point your phone camera at it and have it translate signs for you. Smaller train stations usually wouldn’t have town names in English so I’d have to rely on drawing the kanji on my DS to find my way around.

    There wasn't a loss of interest in games, just the US was super conservative and business practices ran it in to the ground and because kids don't have money (and conservatism within the culture dictated that adults generally couldn't find it acceptable to play games at the time, and had to even feel embarrassed to have any knowledge or understanding of them), gaming kinda died off even if people would've enjoyed it. Europe had a similar flood of trash and their gaming industry didn't die off, not sure what to associate that with. They seemed to generally have a much more tech-friendly culture with a focus on general purpose computers with integrated programming environments beginning from the early days, so I guess they weren't banking on one thing.. unfortunately, that kinda lead to there just being a lot of trash games simply because of hardware limitation (and some other bad business practices mostly around reselling some random games some kids wrote after paying them barely anything for it.).

    Okay, a lot of falsities here: -You don't control a man in Ball, you control a marionette. This is confirmed in the game's instruction manual, which I found here: www.replacementdocs.com/download.php?view.2886 -I don't think Mario Bros. specifically was responsible for inspiring the DS. The Multi Screen series likely was, but most of them open vertically, like the DS, including the first five of them. -Donkey Kong Circus isn't really a remake of Ball, the gameplay is notably different because each object stays within its lane rather than getting passed back and forth. It has much more in common with Chef, if you want to compare it to something. -"Mickey & Donald were different versions of two other Game & Watch games titled Egg and Fire, respectively." No, this is completely wrong. Mickey & Donald is one game. It does feature a firefighting theme like Fire, but the gameplay is completely different. Meanwhile, Mickey Mouse (on widescreen) is the game that's mostly identical to Egg. -Might not've fit the script, but Punch-Out was only known as such in North America--it was Boxing elsewhere. Felt that was worth mentioning. Anyway, sorry to be "that guy", but these stood out to me. Carry on!

    did the Fire Attack reference get removed prior to shipping out copies? I thought it was announced that it was through a game update early on in its launch that was removed? Also surprised there was nothing said about the Nintendo Mini Classics line, the 90s re-release of many G&W titles as well as some new games. Also also, fans in Europe & Australia got an additional GameBoy G&W collection the rest of the world never did (pretty sure even Japan included), called GameBoy Gallery which predated the G&W Gallery series that came later. It featured 5 G&W titles with updated graphics, which would be nice touches to add if they ever want to give Mr. G&W more alternate skins in Smash.

    Always wanted an actual game and watch. I had one of the gbc collections, i put A LOT of time into it. Dont know what i did with the cart... probably been around 20 yrs since i last played it but i find myself wanting to play it frequently. Really satisfied with the new mario game and watch though! Hopefully they make more game and watches.

    Not only is "luh-kee-too" a gratingly awkward pronunciation, it's not the character's Japanese name. That would be "Jugemu." The hint here is that "tu" is almost nonexistent in Japanese at all, and is never in a Japanese native word. It can only be found in loanwords and phonetic guides to words in other languages. It's very rare even in loanwords, to the extent that if the word was popularized before the 80s or 90s it probably uses "tsu" instead.
