I used to have one of these a few years back when they were first released, I think it was Star Fox. But, ive recently been getting into collecting these watches. For some reason I cant seem to find a list of which ones or how many were released though. Are there any other DP members that are intrested in these and could help me out?

So far I have collected Super Mario World, Star Fox, and Donkey Kong. Im pretty sure there are more out there.


Heres an example of Star Fox.

I'm pretty sure the only other Nintendo branded ones are...

Super Mario Bros
Tetris
The Legend of Zelda

Nelsonic (who made the older boxier looking ones) also did a pile of other generic wristwatch games and there were more companies out there producing generic games as well.

I used to own a Super Mario Brothers 1 watch. I got it for my 8th birthday. That was one awesome birthday at that :D I also got Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle, which to this day is one of my favorite games ever.

Over the years my family has gone through many moves and my watch has long been missing. Does anyone know where I might find another one other than on ebay? How rare were they anyway?

I used to have one of these, not sure which and i'm not sure where its gone. Most likely lost forever.

I'd be interested to know how much these things go for and where to get one. A search on ebay found nothing

"I" Paid $5.00 for the two on Ebay and they are mint,unused..
(I removed the batteries)

I keep them in a Clear Game case that's used to hold SNES/Genny games.

My Star Fox one is fun to mess around with. They are great when your board. :P

i have a donkey kong one and a super mario world one...dk is loose; the mario world one is sealed in a blister pack, but its all plastic, unlike the star fox one shown.

you might be able to see the boxed one on the third shelf below, dk is in the mario 2 glass..

The Tetris one is of the same design as the SMB 3 watch, except it's Tetris with "Tetris" printed on the band in the same front as in the original US PC release.

Also remember the boxy Nelsonic Nintendo watches (Zelda, Tetris, Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 3) come in different color variations - namely black, red, white, and pink.

I just bought a Starfox one. I had a Zelda one for a few hours, it was a Christmas present and I just got the hang of it when it went missing or was taken. :angry:

Also had a castlevania (Not a Nintendo watch) which was pretty fun but back in the day I swapped it for some Transformers.

The Mario Bros one sucked big time. Just FYI. I think it was a red watch.
