Keychain Mattel Games alert

[simbalion]

I trip to Books A Million ended up in my finding and purchasing a tiny, keychain version of Mattel's Football produced by a company called Super Impulse Limited. This game uses the improved sounds from the previous generation of re-released games of a year or two ago, but actually has the Mattel Electronics name on the front. From their page, there should also be a Basketball and a Baseball available in this series. They are at the bottom of the page in this link: http://superimpulse.com/worlds-coolest/

Show us some pictures of it to get the scale and size of it. Does it have an led display? I'd love to see a video of the gameplay and sound.

Here's a picture of mine with a AA battery for scale. These just use a simple, red colored LCD display. No backlight, so you need to have it in the light to see it. Still, fun for a little quick play. Uses two LR44 batteries.

These have been out for years... one I have is definitely older than the latest handheld incarnations.

You're right simbalion! Late 90's/early 2000's is when I purchased mine. My how time flies!

This is the first time I've seen them available around here since the late 90's/early 2000's when I missed out on one. These have the new sound effects that the latest ones have been having.

That's the same company making the mini arcades in the other thread. The ones I bought had a flyer with their other offerings and I noticed the mini games.

Cool though
