Milestones were made as the wide and multi-screen displays came into use. These were followed by panoramic, colour and even table top Game & Watch models! Also pioneered during this time were the game control systems that evolved into the now familiar +Control Pad and button configuration. + Control Pad Multi-Screen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 5 Panoramic Colour LCD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 6 Welcome to the Gallery!
