    Games Game & Watch

    I collect these things and DSFanboy have recently done a pretty good retrospective:

    Worth a read to see where Nintendo came from.. (and got the design of the DS )

    I know there are some emulator/remakes about for hand-helds like the GP2X and there are some online versions to play as well, although I know that's not much good to a collector.

    I only have one, Zelda which my ex girlfriends mum was chucking out. Pretty good condition too.

    Use to love Mario Cement Factory as well.

    I have the Donkey Kong II dual screen and the Mario Bros multi screen ones.

    Are they worth anything?! No boxes, just the consoles.

    It depends on the condition... battery covers need to be original, no fading on the LCD's etc.

    Donkey Kong 2 & Mario Bros. are 2 of the most common but could get £20-25 each on EBay..

    The rarest are the Nintendo Of America Pocketsize boxes, to find one near mint is practically impossible.

    The rarest multiscreen game Rainshower recently came up for auction in such a box, it went for £900.

    I recently paid £350 for a mint in box balloon fight crystal (about the 3rd rarest game) almost impossible to find boxed !
