If the inventor of Game And Watch didn’t retire a multi-millionaire at the end of the ’80s to a luxury mansion in the Bahamas then there is no justice in the world. For what was this toy but a perfectly weighted and targeted marketing triumph? A small, portable game that could masquerade when required as a digital watch, meaning kids could persuade parents and teachers alike that it was a legitimate scholastic tool (“But Dad, don’t you want me to know what the time is?”), Game And Watch was the logical next step for a company that had exhausted the potential of the 50m water-resistant chronograph. It was time to take the watch off the wrist and lay it on the table.
