Strange Vermin Game & Watch Explanation? was created by GameWatchCollector
I found this strange Game & Watch version of Vermin today: Link to EBay auction and it has a color set with it as if Nintendo designed it this way. Is it possible that this is a rare version or that someone opened the game up and put this in somehow? :GW2:

Hello and welcome here.

I don't think that it's a rare version. More likely the seller or someone else did exchange some parts (colored foil).

It looks like that the colored items are from Donkey Kong JR. DJ-101.

Thanks for your reply! I do see the trees and such that are found in DK Jr. but some of which are not the same (not in location) like how that branch thing in the center does not go like that in Donkey Kong JR. and that some grass/leaves on the "ground" (bottom) dont seem to show. Also the trees dont even match too well either. Anyway, it could seem that this person did open it up, because the regular backround is removed, but who knows, maybe it is :-k

It really looks strange... Maybe the owner did cut the foil? I never did try it, so I have no Idea if this would work.

It's Lion (Goldscreen) AND Donkey Kong 2 (Multiscreen, lower screen a bit cut).

That seems ver possible but there one problem: the dk 2 screen is much larger than a silver screens screen, so would a cut be necessary? And furthermore, while all this seems possible, how can 2 layers of color foil be added to one game at a time (unless if the screen is being bulged out from the pressure)
