Update: Game&Watch book latest news

The current status is as follows:
Currently, the authors are waiting for the offer from the printing company. After that, production will start. This will take about ten to 14 days. During this time, the authors will provide an application form for their newsletter. Everyone who subscribes to the list will be notified once the book is ready for shipping. That will be the case about by the end of November.

Everything took more times as planned. The reason is, that the authors Dave and Gerhard manage everything themselves. They have neither a publisher nor they have support from someone else who would help them (or could help) and the work of such a book is enormous!

Well, let's wait and look forward eagerly to the new Game & Watch book!

Reading instead of gaming – a new book about Game&Watch!

It's unknown how many different ones of them exist. But now another one appeared:
