Hi Patrick,

schau Dir bitte mal dieses Bild der Keychains an.
Sind das Fälschungen? Die Kette ist anscheinend eine andere und das eine Spiel
hat 4 Actionknöpfe?! Ebay-Artikelnummer: 290588616370

Danke und Gruß

Hi m_byte,

I´ve seen them just from Tomy (chef, parachute, octopus). I didn´t knew that their is a second franchise partner.
I am still wondering why one of the games do have 4 buttons. The three versions from Tomy do only have 2, maybe it´s another title?

Thanks for your comment

It looks like the keychains are not the solar powered from Tomy.
The description says: Material: Hard Rubber (PVC), I am not sure if
they have any electronic at all...

Das sind die früheren Versionen der Anhänger, die gibt es schon seit vielen Jahren:

Die sind nicht spielbar und laufen auch nicht automatisch (= die haben keinen LCD)


Im Gegensatz zu jenen, die im jahr 2010 neu herausgegeben wurden:

These are the early keychains, they exist for many years already:

They are not playable and they don't run automatically (= they don't have a LCD)

Compared to the "new" ones who were released in the year 2010:

Patrick, thanks for your input. The old keychains were totaly new to me.
What old style games are available?
Do they need a battery, or are they solar powered, too?

Hi ciaomao

They don't need batteries and no solar power. They are pure plastic... Nothing to play, nothing to see playing.


There are three Game&Watch types:

Wide Screen:
Octopus and Fire

Gold series:
Manhole (two of them shown on the picture above)

Besides that, from this "keychain series" the following ones exist as well:
Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, GameBoy Advance SP


These keychains are licensed by Nintendo and manufactured by Banpresto in the year 2003.

They even carry the Game&Watch logo (lower left corner of the cardboard).
