I've been collecting for about 5 years mostly buying things in Japan, so most of my games are Japanese editions. I mainly collect games that I like to play or that have a nice design or funny characters. I'malso interested in Game & Watch related toys such as erasers, flyers, etc. I have put quite a few large pictures in this thread, so it might take a long time to load... Please post any comments you might have and enjoy! Here is my Silver Series collection:

My Widescreen Fire game is the first G&W that I ever owned, given to me by my mother when I was about 10 years old.

One of the first things I bought for my collection was a Mario Bros. game to replace one that I used to have as a child. I like these Italian instructions and warranty card for my Greenhouse game. My Blackjack game was purchased at a small shop in Colombo, Sri Lanka a few years ago.

I bought this game out of curiousity, and now agree with most collectors who think the Micro Vs. System looks great, but are terrible to play!

I bought these in a toy store in the USA, as I seldom see them in Japan. I have seen them for sale in other places in Asia though, such as Singapore.

I bought these from a seller on an online auction in Japan and they arrived covered in dirt, so I washed them off with some dish soap and they are almost like new. I like the 'cheapness' of these and the strange interpretations of the Nintendo games!

I like the packages of these Russian games and the design of the game console. Nintendo never produced any pink Game & Watches, but luckily for collectors like me the USSR did!

Here's an original flyer for the BanPresto keyholders that was in the UFO catcher machines where you could win these items in video arcades in Japan:

Thanks for your comments! No the Greenhouse is not sealed, but the game inside is mint and with original batteries and Italian instructions. I bought it from a Japanese collector a few years ago, and don't know how it made it's way from Italy to Japan.
