    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Sat May 29 12:42:33 2021
    I went out and bought one of these from an online auction a few years back. I never had one at school but man were they popular back in the day. Does
    anyone else remember or use the Casio MG-880?

    Never saw one of those, but there were many Casio game watches people had in the early and mid 80s. I had a "plane and tank" game watch where you had to guide your tank across a bridge, avoiding bombs.

    I remember those, but never had one. The first portable "gaming device" that I had was a Nokia phone, on which you could play "Snake". :)
