I have actually seen a lot of these, ball, octopus, etc...
But you know which one i never have seen a simulator (or emulator, if it is a better term) for: Game & Watch Zelda.
Does any one know if maybe there is one for Game & Watch Zelda out there or not? I am aware you can get it in Game & Watch Gallery Advance, and also the "mini classic" edition, but i simply do not understand why no one has made a simulator of it yet.

I'd recommend picking up the actual game.  It's the first Zelda I played and actually does feel like a real game.  Well worth $30.
I love picking it up and completing it every now and then.  My favourite Game & Watch next to GreenHouse.

I had Zelda as a kid. Found it around four years ago and sold it for 40$, that's before I got into the retro scene... I found the manual two years later and sold it for 10$.
(I still personally think all G&W are useless, boring junk and don't understand why anyone would want them :P)

Really?  They're great fun and some of them have amazing timing games.  Vermin is one of the easiest to get into I think.
I really wished for a complete collection on DS, rather than how they're all scattered around on various other games.

I had Cement Factory as a kid and I legitimately enjoyed the heck out of it.  It was fun, even beyond the novelty factor, which was considerable.  I wish I still had it (damn parents).  Game and Watches are just very cool pieces of electronic entertainment to behold and play.

I've got a few of these lying around but I don't fancy them at all. My favorite handheld game that is similar to the Game and Watch style is those Hudson Shooting Watches! :D

I had a US Cement Factory and gave it away in my teen years to a Mandarake employee for free, among other things like a JVC X'Eye and a Jaguar CD unit. Screw me then, big business now. They went around pleading as poor gamers sucking up inventory. "Boo-hoo, our business stinks, can I have some old games or systems so I can keep my job and this company can stay afloat?". They're afloat all right, and a huge FU to them from me personally. They also went around trying to buy old used Converse Sneakers.

Things flipped overnight, and they were selling rare consoles and loli porn PRIME TIME. This company has no soul.
They're thieves and Pedos that paid $0 for their entire inventory.

Parodius Duh

Agreed 100% SOOOOOO Boring, dont understand why people pay 100s and 100s of dollars for these little shit games, sure there nostalgic, but its nothing Id ever sit down and actually enjoy playing. The only cool one is the Popeye game that looks like a mini Arcade cabinet, but I dont even think thats part of the G&W series...
