Gold Series

 

On the 29th of January, 1981 Nintendo released its second series of the increasing popular Game&Watch, the Gold games. A couple of new features was added to the games. First of all an alarm feature, a second small hole was added on the front so the owner could set an alarm time. And on the back of the game there where a small metal pin that you could fold out so that the game could stand on a table. The front plate was gold coloured.

Comments
1. Manhole (MH-06) Very catchy. You need eyes all over the place
2. Helmet (CN-07) Not as difficult, but one of my schoolyard favourites.
3. Lion (LN-08) Still Fun, but very frustrating when the lions keep moving around, pretending to come out and then don't.
