A quick review of the "Super Mario Bros Game & Watch". One of my kids got one as a gift, and I've borrowed it while they weren't looking.
Quick summary: It's awesome. Worth the price.
My opinion is that Super Mario Bros on NES is a masterpiece. The colors, the music, the level designs, the bright graphics. All perfect. And this little device captures all that. At first, the controls seem a little slippery, but that's just because the screen is so small. Once you get used to that, it's all good. The screen is nice and bright. The music sounds great. It's so well done.
Bravo to Nintendo for doing nostalgia products with such high quality.
I've seen a lot of complaints about "no kickstand". Really? OK. If that's all there is to complain about, I think it speaks highly about this product.

Wonderful little review in your status update @RickR! Describing Super Mario Bros. as a "masterpiece" is just perfect. I'm glad to see they did a nice job with this. It's everything I would've wanted back then! Loved your final thought on the "no kickstand" comments. Some classic gamers feel like they have to always have a snarky comment or something to criticize or they're not getting their name out there or having something to say. Sometimes it's okay to just love something for what it is.
