I was 11 years old in 1982 and remember all these. I got a calculator watch for my 12th birthday and found out it had a decent side-scroll racing game, that was so cool.

The old game wrist watches from early 80s looked much better than the 90s offerings. They looked like watches whereas the later models looked like toys. In the year 2000, I had purchased a ink pen with a lcd game within it. That was pretty cool just do to its novelty.

This is AMAZING, an exceptional video, so much to talk about! But I will just thank you for putting such much fastidious the work into. Right, off to ebay to track some of these down! 😅😅 I totally forgot about those Tiger watches, wow. Best regards, TGV
My sister and I got a pair of watches, the Mario and Zelda ones. I got the Mario and she got the Zelda, but I was constantly borrowing hers because it was a more fun game to play. Mario was just "step forward on the platforms that appear/disappear", but Zelda had you actually moving around, picking up items, placing bombs, etc. When I saw the video thumbnail, I commented out loud, "Oh wow, Nintendo game watches!" And then spent a bit explaining to my roommate what I was talking about. ^_^
I got the Tiger Super Mario Bros 3 watch and I actually thought it was coolest watch ever. It was so cool I decided it could probably be cleaned under a stream of water, and it died. However later the water dried up and it worked again so yes, just amazing.
Back in the 1980s (yes I'm old), I had a game watch and a knight rider watch and was always fiddling with them. Fast forward to 2020, I have a smartphone with 12gb ram and yet hardly ever play games on it. These old devices had a magic...I miss that
I live in Asia and they sell knock off versions of these at the dollar store near my house. I've been tempted a few times because I grew up with these in the 80's.
I love all the old advertisements that you put in your videos, I always enjoy hitting pause to read them. They are like a little nostalgia time capsule back into my childhood in 80's and early 90's. Edit: "You'll have the most popular wrist in town!" That does sound pretty tawdry, lol.
I had a couple handhelds with the same vibe as these and i distinctly remember them being the "beeper" line. they looked just like pagers and beepers of the era with the belt clip and stuff and had some random lcd games on them similar to tiger games. but also had a couple hidden features. when the game was seemingly turned off and clipped on your belt, if you previously tapped the designated button it would add a min to the built in timer. little kid me thought i was so cool, because i would walk out of the room, tap the button a few times then clip the device my belt then go socialize, then act all important when my "pager" went off.
I never understood the watch and Tiger style games. I would say I was spoiled by my NES at home, but you had game systems too. Interesting to see a bit of how they worked.
how come you're not having much more views, your content is really unique and entertaining, I mean when I first saw the, quote on quote VERY CREATIVE channel name I didn't expect much, but man you're doing great! thumb up from the other side of the planet!!
My brother had the Pac-Man watch (buttons version). It played Dixie for some reason. He would always stop it after the first few notes to match the horn from the General Lee on The Dukes of Hazard.
I have the mario 3 unit. I don't remember who bought it for me, but I played it so much that I could beat it over and over. When you get to the end it loops.
Man this video & watches take me back. I have a Zelda and Q-Bert. I even remember just the Calculator watches, I didn't have but a few kids in grade school got in trouble for using the calculator in class.
I feel like no one was happy with a Tiger game. They were cheap and what your parents got you if they didn’t want to get you a Gameboy. They said “They were just as good” but they weren’t
I remember having that Zelda watch, my younger brother had the Mario watch, I still have 2 Nintendo Game & Watch multi screen games, Donkey Kong (1982) and Squish (1986).
I had one of the Super Mario watches, only mine was red. I think it's still around here somewhere. The beeping could get annoying after a while but as a short time waster it was fun enough.
I had that Mario watch when I was a kid, but it didn't even survive the first day. I loved it so much that I didn't want to take it off, so when I got into the bath with it still on later that night, water got into it immediately because it had a headphone jack on the side, and it instantly died. Soon took it off when it didn't bloody work anymore lol
I remember being about four years old playing my older brother's Batman watch game. I thought it was the most boring game. I watched Fievel Goes West instead and then played Snake Rattle'N'Roll. I find it odd that a lot of people don't remember much of being a few years old.
I have a Star Fox game watch. Mine came in a box of cereal and it's decent quality for something so cheap. I have another one that's newer, but I forgot what it is, and I don't feel like searching around for it right now lol. It's a large chunky green watch, though.
You forgot Fossil They designed the first Palm OS on a wrist watch. Because it utilizes the m68K CPU you can run in realtime GB GBC and Amiga games. It was rather interesting playing pokemon yellow on a touchscreen watch back in 2003.
Awesome to see that Star Trek II game watch in action again after all these decades. It was my first digital watch back in 1982 and I loved it! Unfortunately I broke the sound somehow while opening it up to change the battery myself... I still remember it after 40 years.
I remember when I was 8 I had pac man watch and one with a lot of melodies and Donkey kong JR game and watch and the famous digital red clock pen in the late 70 th. Ahh i am old now
Thanks enjoyed that. My mum bought me the Nelsonic Pac Man with joystick, and my brother had Space War. Wish I still had them, for sentimental reasons rather than the value.
I owned a Casio gamewatch in the mid to late 80s. It had a game where you flew a helicopter and shot down baddies. We used to have contests during lessons at high school haha!
We had all three GCE watches as a kid: Game-Time, Arcade-Time and Sports-Time. I was worried they'd get damaged if I took them to school and we didn't really go anywhere where I would be idle. When I went away to summer camp I would take my Donkey Kong Game and Watch which was more fun and physically easier to hold & play. So, the GCE watches ended up being mostly novelty items.
@@wes788411 Would you rather I have written the full "80386" instead? Still, you can't deny it's a better name than anything Intel or AMD have used in the last 20 years.
I have an LG G watch - an Android Wear smartwatch from 2014 - and it plays Minecraft. My friends were pretty amazed, though when they did ask to borrow it they'd rather play something like 2048, which controls a lot better than Minecraft does on that tiny watch.
I actually had one of the 'cosmic war' watches (shown in this video) as a kid. That thing was awesome. It was entirely metal, unlike many of the later watches, so it actually looked like a decent watch as well. I remember one of my crowning achievements as a kid was clocking the score (looping back to zero). Liked the video just for the nostalgia bump, but great information too.
Wooow that street fighter 2 & aladdin watches really really looks cool., they also give you the elussion as if the lcd screen was really color, if i got the money and know were to find all those watches, i would definitely buy them.
I don’t care what anyone says, I still think playing a game on any watch is still cool. One time at work, I watched my friend on our lunch break playing Tetris on his Apple Watch. My mind was blown. 🤯
That Casio WR was no Gimmick, amazing watch, I remember my entire class at school being in awe of our teacher changing the channel on the TV with his watch lol - I plan to get one soon but I always forget. Thanks for reminding me.
I had the PacMan watch with the buttons in the late 80s. Loved playing that game. The watch even survived a fall into the pool. Just took a few days to dry out. Eventually the wrist band broke and it got lost in time.
I never could play those lcd action games... I suck at games so much that the stuttered movement of objects made it impossible. The advertising always got me though! Then the frustration set in.
I had a double dragon game watch that totally kept me sane during a summer holiday, and later got the street fighter one you showed at the end. Ah those were the days
What a great video, thanks for making it, was fascinating to hear the background of these fun toys. I've managed to collect a pile of old handheld LCD games over the years, including these wrist watch games: Nelsonic: Pac Man, Frogger, Donkey Kong, Tetris, Q*Bert, Zelda (black strap & white strap versions), StarFox, StarWing, Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario Race, Super Mario World, Black Jack. Tiger: RoboCop, Batman Returns, Jurassic Park, Minnie Mouse, Street Fighter II, Sonic The Hedgehog, Beauty and the Beast, Ninja Gaiden, The Little Mermaid, The Simpsons, WWF Super Stars. Plus about 20 more like Ribena, Nintendo Super Mario Bros Egg Catch, Casio Zoomnzap, Imado branded Pac Man, and some extremely rare Sega Game Gear shaped watches.
As a kid I had friends with watches that played a bowling game and later a Space Invaders game, and that were the envy of us all. I never had a game watch, but I did get a few Tiger handhelds: Gauntlet, Mortal Kombat, and Terminator (my favorite). I still have them. May need to go fire one up for a few rounds now.
Oh wow what a flashback. I had that Casio 10 game watch !. I had completely forgot all about it until you showed it here and the memory came back. They were all the rage amongst 80's school kids.
Awesome video, a great trip down memory lane. I remember having a Pac man clone with the joystick. but I can’t find anything about it. Sold in England 1982/3 ish.
Wow Pac-Man wrist watch with joystick I had one of these when I was a freshman in high school back in 82 here in the states got kicked out of a few classes playing this but it was worth it and I passed the class
7:43. Interesting cause we’d see something like this resurface decades later to provide a simplistic LCD screen for battery saving clock mode on top of a modern full color LCD or OLED in many smartwatches today, that’d switch between the two when the watch was put to sleep or in use.
Those tiger electronic games were great. I remember those times fondly from my youth. I wish I could turn back the clock (I would have freaked out if I saw a smartphone). Evading an LCD bullet in some tiger game was so exciting at the time. It was a perfectly reasonable way to spend precious minutes of life. Goodby forever sweet time. goodbye forever
I remember when the super Mario world watch came out. That thing was the stuff of legend and when I finally got one I was very underwhelmed and never bout another game wristwatch again.

haha you are not alone, it was also my simple mind thinking that it ment watch as watching.
I didn't realise until watching this
Fuck me side ways 😂
Same I just thought that about ten mins ago
so that means WATCHING actually translates to CLOCKING, thats genious
I wonder why dual-layer LCDs never caught on? Seems like a cool technology!
I find myself thinking about the possibilities for a colour display. Instead of having your subpixels side-by-side, stack them up.

That's what I had! OMG! I couldn't remember any of the names of the ones I had until I read this 👌 Mario Bros was the first one I got!
Last time I was this early ET was being proudly advertised for the Atari 2600
These were all the rage when I was a kid. That and watches that played melodies.
Very enjoyable video. Doing the world a favour by documenting this history.

Evading an LCD bullet in some tiger game was so exciting at the time. It was a perfectly reasonable way to spend precious minutes of life. Goodby forever sweet time. goodbye forever
I remember when the super Mario world watch came out. That thing was the stuff of legend and when I finally got one I was very underwhelmed and never bout another game wristwatch again.
Peter where can I get more details on the Sex & Watch?
Asking for a friend.
You just need to make sure it is worn on the appropriate wrist leaving the other appropriate wrist free. 😂
@@richpickings2845 why should there be an appropriate wrist to masturbate with though, especially when the image is nothing to look at compared to full-size pornography?
@@alsatusmd1A13 It is a joke in the non-literal sense, I'll include a disclaimer next time, thanks.
Try looking for "Sexum watch", that's it's actual name. One of the more unusual genres of sexiness on the Internet.
