 Any chance there could be a different shade of yellow or green? may just be my partial colour blindness, but they seem pretty hard to distinguish on the table. A darker, forest green would probably work well, rather than a pastel yellow and green [[User:Rukal|Rukal]] 16:52, 18 June 2011 (CEST)

 You can't emulate a Game & Watch game, in its strictest terms.  You can only simulate them; basically, remake them with the explicit intent of sticking extremely close to the original.  This is because there's nothing to emulate; the game's done entirely analog.  Closest you can get is the Game and Watch Gallery series.  Also, there are no ROMs to dump or load; ever try to emulate an egg timer?  Therefore, I am moving Game And Watch simulators to Games.  [[User:Blue Protoman|Blue Protoman]] 01:14, 20 February 2011 (MET)

	Now there are five levels instead of three (unless you count Not Enough Info). However, this means that we're back to square one in marking down colors. I also made it easier inside the Edit Page to add colors to entries. Let's see some action here!
