I find it amusing he called out Ashens at the beginning and says that he's not really seen bootlegs mocking Game and Watch gameplay, when save for minor graphical differences, this is the same bootleg as 'Super Mary' from his Pop Station reviews.
I actually had the “Mini Classic Series” Mario G&W a few years back, and bout DK Jr. for one of my friends! Clicking on this video, I knew exactly what this was a bootleg of, and even worried that the version I had bought *was* the bootleg in the video. Turns out I’ve got the real deal!
3:15 When I was in high school, back in the early 2000s, I worked as a cashier at a Walgreens drug store, and I definitely remember seeing those official lcd games there. I do kind of regret not buying any back then.
This is basically a review of the original Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch based on a random bootleg. Cool video by the way, didn’t know this bootleg existed until today.
I actually used to own an official Mini Classic version of Mario's Cement Factory as a kid, as well as LCD versions of Frogger and Tetris; don't know happened to them, though.
I had a few of those mini classic series handhelds about 15 years ago. Got Marios Cement Factory, Donkey Kong Jr. and Super Mario Bros. Still got two of them but ended up giving the Mario one to a kid I was babysitting at the time since he liked it so much. I think I paid a whopping $20 for all three of them...Not a bad deal for something that plays just like the G&W originals. Never read the manual...Found out about the fire bars the hard way... 😆
Surprising you don't know of the nintendo mini classics yet own a play yan micro. They were everywhere at places like CVS. I had donkey kong jr. and mario's cement factory. Later I was lucky to get an Octopus. They're much cheaper then the real thing (usually) so they make for a great way to start collecting game & watch units.
It’s no doubt that both china,russia but also hongkong did caused alooot of financial losses to nintendo as well as ruin there good reputation as well over the decades🥲
4:05 I appreciate that you actually remixed the Mario theme to sound like the bootleg instead of just playing the direct audio from the bootleg.
You're forgetting he used to submit to a siIvagunner clone channel.
"Pleasure doing business with you, have a Super Mario LCD handheld game" is the most inherently hilarious thing I've heard in a while.
_"Ashens would be proud"_
Made my day.
AK referenced Nitro Rad in his previous video and now he references Ashens! Truly a man of culture!
1:55 this makes me think of that meme where it's like
"HERE, HAVE A FUNGUS"
it made me laugh a bit ngl
"Purple and yellow is, like, one of the best color combinations."
Yes
inb4 people ask how you commented 14 hours early
*cough cough* purple and green *cough cough*
Purple bee
i had a feeling youd say something like that :p
It’s one of the ugliest combinations
I love how this opens up exactly the same way that the fast forward gag in the AR Cards video happened.
I had a green one of these growing up so this is a blast from the past for me, although now I think mine wasn't a bootleg like yours.
I have a gray one.
I also own the green one!
@@fishactivation5087 I’m getting the silver one!
It’s 25 bucks on ebay
I keep forgetting that A.K. is a retired HQVGR mashup maker and then bam, 4:15

All the wackiness and nostalgia topped with a healthy helping of "ummm, okay" in such a small package!
Very interesting indeed.

Ironically, the legit Nintendo Mini Classics also didn’t always accurately replicate the gameplay of the original Game & Watch versions either!
Until now...
So, it wasn't Mario Phone after all...
4:19 I got an ad for Verizon and the music synced perfectly with the music of the bootleg
Those smiley face and pointing finger glyphs look almost exactly like the ones used in Microsoft Powerpoint and Microsoft Word :0
I had the official blue Cement one as a kid that I got from Toys R Us. Nobody really seems to remember these lol.
I still remember them
I have exactly this but the genuine nintendo one in silver 😄
ONLY Ak would make the effort to make a rip that lasts less than 5 seconds to recreate the bootleg tune.
And he did not. Sarvéproductions made it.
I had the original when I was 4 years old. Never figured-out how to reach the final level I think.

Official LCD Tetris was pretty good.
i asked this on the mario royale stream and i got it,
Thanks AK!
I didn't know they did a new official version of this Game&Watch! Thanks Patreon guy!
Wow first time very early!
And lmao a bootleg Gameboy that is a Game and Watch game and is so made in China, amazing!
I had the Nintendo Classic Super Mario Bros. Game&Watch, and would play it with the noise turned off when I was in detention in highschool.
Really liked this video !
Bonus point for adding subtitles, it always help me to improve my English.
Another great video! Pretty surprising how accurate it is for a bootleg.
"purple and yellow is like one of the best color combinations out there" FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT
I have never even heard of super mario bros. Game and watch this is a pretty cool gadget
Even the bootleg i guess
0:43 It's Princess Bleach!
Everyone was expecting the Mario Phone but NOBODY expect Bootleg Mario LCD
KNIGHT
Now let's talk about obscure official games (e.g. Hebereke).
1:14 that always make me think of wario and waluigi
6:38
Every copy of Super Mario is personalized.
You missed the mushroom and star powerups
Akfamilyhome’s intro changes in every video
Aight then.
I have the original mini classics version. Mine is green

For my switch joy cons I have purple and orange and It makes sense
Brick Game 9999 in 1: *UH*
These look like one of those Staudlebauer made. Look it up.
I have one of those before back in 2002
0:15 Anyone realized that he basically reused the intro to this vid in his 3DS AR Game review?
The website that has the Super Mario keychain doesn’t work for me : (
lmao I can't image bootleg scalpers
I own a legit one but it’s Mario’s cement factory and the dk jr one
Ah yes good old Super Mario:tm:
Loyal enough to be a bootleg
4:16
Neat
Game of the year
Honestly this video makes me want to try an actual Mario game & watch. What was that hq footage that you showed sporadically, anyways?
Game and Watch emulator probably
Oh boy, a supra maro bootleg.
He... He can edit music???
Yeah, he’s a SiIvaGunner contributor.
that's a mario
I use to have one of those XD
wy electronics more like why just why
how do you get it
WHO IS THAT 1 PERSON THAT DISLIKED THIS?!?!
4:16 SiIvaGunner, eat your heart out!
I have one thing to say about this...
Why
Super Mario
:)
0:14 Wait! Since when do Bob-Omb Buddies have hands?
Eww
It’s no doubt that both china,russia but also hongkong did caused alooot of financial losses to nintendo as well as ruin there good reputation as well over the decades🥲
