Shooting watch
« on: April 15, 2012, 01:51:42 AM »
I got my Shooting Watch the other day (thanks Samurai!) and it's everything I hoped it would be.  I took it out on Friday, and my friends were all trying to out-do each other for the high score and trying different techniques.  It's perfect for people who don't normally play games too, because it's just pressing buttons!

It's going with me everywhere from now on, in its adopted Gameboy Micro pouch!

Hany says, "soop, you better damn well LOVE that shooting watch. This is the thirty-seventh thread you've started based on the damn thing!"

Cook wishes more watches incorporated shooting in them.

Hany adds, "Aw, shucks."

If you play it after midnight, the shooting watch will shoot you.

LMAO!  I think the first secret is unlocked after acheiving over 100, but I'm not sure.

ZING!  Just found this: http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=8977395

Took me long enough to figure out the Japanese to set the time...

Yeah, the thing looks pretty sweet! It took a lot of willpower not to crack the thing open and give it a shot (or shots?) before I sent it to you, but I wanted you to have a brand new Shooting Watch. It's on my want list now!!

On a related note before I started collecting PCE stuff I passed on a PC Engine GT signed by the master Takahashi Meijin himself. Crap!!

I even kept the tab you pull out to connect the battery - this thing is staying as complete as possible!

Well that goes without saying... I have kept mine and it definitely is staying complete.

How much do those things sell for nowadays...?

to be honest, you two guys have the 3rd edition, since there were already 2 editions back in the 80s :)

Was there...? I never realised that.

Is there much details anywhere on when they were originally given out...?
