The '''[[wikipedia:Game & Watch|Game & Watch]]''' is a series of self-contained handheld LCD games by Nintendo which are often seen as the precursor to the [[Game Boy/Game Boy Color emulators|Game Boy]], although new Game & Watch games were still released as late as 1991.
Despite their simplicity, Game & Watch handhelds were completely unemulated for a very long time due to a lack of information about their hardware and difficulties with dumping ROMs and accurately recreating graphics. After an [http://forums.bannister.org//ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=97003#Post97003 extensive reverse engineering effort by several MAME developers], MAME became the first emulator to support emulate many retro handheld electronic games, including a few Game & Watch systems.
