Game & Watch. The way of the emulators.

Nostalgia and fond childhood memories can make grown men (especially talented programmers and artists, that is) do the weirdest things. Like for example going on, disobeying their mothers, wasting their precious time and emulating dozens of Nintendo's Game & Watch handhelds of yore, thus saving you (and apparently me) hours and oodles of money you (and apparently I -of course) would definitely spend on the accursed ebay.

Now, act the proper way, thank the nice gentlemen of Handheld Remakes and either click here for online Java/Flash/whatever Game & Watch fun, or here for the complete (mostly downloadable) G&W shebang.
