WonderSwan Review

Brief Description:

The WonderSwan was an ultra-portable (hand-held) console made by Bandai. It was released only in Japan in 1999 (for parties!... JK). There have been many different variations of this console.

The Positive Points:

-It's control scheme was super cool and unique. It enabled you to use the WonderSwan vertically or horizontally.

-It only required 1 AA battery, and depending on which version you owned, it could last between 20-40 hours! Not even our modern technology is that efficient.

-It came in lots of cool designs and colours including pink, black, blue, translucent, etc.

The Negative Points:

-Some people (possibly even me, since I've never actually held a WonderSwan) have found the control scheme to be uncomfortable, cumbersome, and/or complicated.

Innovative: Yes

Affordability At It's Release (affordability for it's time): Very Cheap

General Public Rating: Fair

Success: A Little Successful

My Personal Final Rating: Good (4/6)
