So that's the game & watch...I'd heard of it before, but never seen any pics of it. My guess would be that it didn't have much of a story...so they wouldn't bother to try to work it into an official chronology.

Of course...I don't really think there is a coherent official chronolgy, so I'd call it a moot point.

I just consider the Game and Watch Zelda a game and watch handheld game based on Zelda, just as the other Game and Watch games like Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. are. It's not a 'real' Zelda game in the sense of a Zelda game sense.

a while ago, i bought a zelda game and watch off ebay. i can't understand it though. they didn't send instructions. =p

you do realise those little orange boxes have hyperlinks in them, don't you?

By screenshots, I ment pictures of actual gameplay. But now that I think about it, I guess you really couldn't take a picture of a monochrome screen that well.

I used to have the Donkey Kong wristwatch that came out in 1994. Whenever I got bored in class, I'd start playing it. Nobody would bother me about it, since it only looked like I was fiddling with my watch.

I got a Zelda game and watch off ebay several months ago. I love it, it's one of my favorite Zelda games. I have my high score written down somewhere...it was over 10,000 though.

I didn't get the instruciton manual though, and there's supposed to be a story to it.

I knew there was such a thing, but I never thought about going to ebay to get it... It looks fun, if just slightly out of date. 😃

No man, it's awesome, and really fun. If you like Game and Watch games (like from the Game and Watch gallery series - which I love), you will love this Zelda one for sure.

Wow, I know somebody who has one of those. I spent hours on that thing when I was a little kid... Great memories.
