Brilliant. Absolutely bloody brilliant. As if the Nintendo DSi needed yetanotherdownloadable clock, it’s beenmade apparentthat theGame & Watchseries is here to save the day! Only confirmed for Japan at this point, nine of the ancient Gunpei Yokoi-created minigames are scheduled to launch.
The titles include the very firstG&Wgame,Ball,as well as other LCD-based delights likeDonkey Kong Jr.andMario’s Cement Factory. Let me just reiterate that these games also double as clocks, meaning that it’ll be thefifthtime-telling tool to be announced for the system.

We’ve had the official DSiWare Clock, anAnimal Crossingclock, a Mario clock and a clock included as part of an upcoming Tingle download pack. Bear in mind that the DSi alreadyhasan internal clock as well. At the very least,Game & Watchmeans we’ll be getting something alittlemore interactive, butGod damn.
This is hilarious. The fact that possibly the most interesting thing to come out of DSiWare is a handful of LCD games from the 1980’s is absolutely fantastic. Comedy, thy name is DSiWare.
