Nintendo Mini Classics - Design

Design

Each Mini Classics unit is designed to look like a small Game Boy. Units typically have all the buttons of a Game Boy, with A, B, Start, and Select buttons, a keychain attached to the top left hand corner, and a stand on the back. Some games, however, do not have a stand, especially Dual-screen releases such as Oil Panic and Donkey Kong. Mini Classics are sold in an assortment of colors, varying from game to game. (Mario's Cement Factory, for example, is blue and Donkey Kong Junior is gold.) Similar to the Game and Watch, the Nintendo Mini Classics units have alarm clock features. Some games, like Oil Panic, have two displays.

Famous quotes containing the word design:

    “You can make as good a design out of an American turkey as a Japanese out of his native stork.”
    —For the State of Illinois, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “I begin with a design for a hearse.
    For Christ’s sake not black—
    nor white either—and not polished!
    Let it be weathered—like a farm wagon—”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    “If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. By suicide, I reintroduce my design in nature, I shall for the first time give things the shape of my will.”
    —Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
