Originally released in the early 1980's, the "Game & Watch" line marked Nintendo's entrance into the portable video game market. Featuring liquid crystal displays and a handy size small enough to fit into a pocket, they quickly became a hit everywhere for gamers on the go. "Ball", released in the 1980, was the first of many Game & Watch titles to be released by Nintendo. As the games evolved, so did the hardware. Later games made use of wide and multi-screen displays; they also pioneered the now familiar + Control Pad and button configuration. EGG Mmmm....look at those fresh eggs!
