Nintendo Game and Watch (2020s)

Nintendo's recent “celebration” of recent anniversaries for the Mario and Zelda franchises. Releasing on November 13th, 2020 and November 12th, 2021, the two “revival” Game and Watches are capable of doing a few things, despite their unsurprisingly lightweight status. Containing an ARM Cortex M7 core, 128 KB + 8 MB of flash memory, 1.4 MB of RAM, and an unknown screen, these little systems can emulate a few eras of game consoles with a simple set of hacks.

Console emulation (potential)
