Green Game&Watch Fire
In an earlier article from January 10th 2009 I wrote about a green Fire FR-27 from the Wide Screen Series. Each collector knows, that the body of this game is blue and not green. But there are exceptions...Just yesterday, such a rare variation was sold on eBay for just a few Euro. I asked the seller where he got the game from, and he told me, that he did find it in the attic...

Where are the 15'000 Super Mario Bros. ???
Honestly: No idea where they are... But for sure is the fact, that it all was an April fools day joke! (as most of you did notice)
It would be far too nice to be true, wouldn't it? THE sensation!
Unfortunately nothing about it is true. Everything, the news and the pictures are an Aprils-fools-day-trick.
Well, maybe we will have a real sensaion by the next year, who knows...?!
Thank you very much for your comments here, your postings in the forum
and of course your comments on Facebook. That was great, thank you!!!

15'000 Super Mario Bros. YM-901 discovered!
Incredible: Today, a few big carton boxes were found in a big stockroom. All of them full of the famous and much sought-after Super Mario Bros YM-901. Overall there are five big cartons, each of them holding a total of 50 smaller ones. Every of the small cartons contain 60 yellow SMB 901. This makes a total of 15'000 Super Mario Bros YM-901 Games! What a great find!Until today, it was known that there was a total of 10'000 produced. The yellow YM-901 never was sold in stored, but given away by Nintendo to the winners of a contest. But now it's very much clear, that Nintendo produced many more of these games. It's unknown why they have been stored away and why they never were given away or sold. More information will follow soon here on gameandwatch.ch...!
Update: The shipping company just phoned me and told me, that the games will arrive in about 7.5 hours! Please place your preorders now! - Gawaleus
