You have a great collection... I know you don't "count" YM901 but it's the only game released by Nintendo under the "Game & Watch" brand that you don't have Aren't you just a little curious?

Nice spread Andy Like the look of.... Boxed Pano's - Hard to get in very good condition, especially Snoopy Nice Boxed Chef I think I can see a boxed egg? Nice Lifeboat Like the flyer (got a spare? ;D) Nice Boxing Nice Climber CGL Fire - Nice Octopus - Nice Nice OP Nice Crab Grab Nice spitball Well that's what caught my eye anyway. Altogether a very nice collection. I like the word nice! How long have you been collecting? Paul. p.s Andy, I respect your views on the 60/60 thing, but youv'e got to have the yellow magic. It's a g&w and it was released with it own serial number, not to mention it looks the Tommy Nakajimas! p.p.s, try and resize the picture a little, makes it easier to see and also read the posts. I normally reduce by 50% and then by 85 - 90%

I've been collecting since late 1997, I think. See my website. homepage.ntlworld.com/gameandwatchThere's a history page on there. It also tells you in more detail exactly what I've got. there's pics of all the boxes on the HTML pages but not on the purple site. p.s. On the YM-901S thing, I'd like one, but I have to disagree on one point - I'm sure it doesn't actually say Game & Watch on the unit itself, only on one of the leaflets. Andy.

A couple more points I maybe new to this forum but I've probably been collecting longer than anyone else on it!! Did you spot the white spitball sparky in the middle of the picture? Quite easily the rarest I tem I have. Makes a YM-901S look common as muck (well, they are anyway!) ;D Andy.

As I said Andy, it's up to the individual, no one way is right.
Nice White Sparky, I know Taki has one of those aswell.

What's the history on the white sparky folks?

I seem to recall that there was a debate some time ago as to whether or not they actually existed or not.

It 100% exsists. Andy has one, Taki has one and someone else has one for sure.
Taki knows of 3. So if one of them is Andy's then there is at least 3, if not there are 4 that are know about.
Basically the case is white (look at the top of the game where it stands out more and you will see)
I don't actually know why this happened (production error?)
Maybe Andy can shed some more light.

The last site mentioned by Pieter belongs to Ramrodius (old collectors should remember him). He's the one who owns the 3rd white spitball.
