Mega Man on a Smartwatch!? Zuiki's Booth: A Mix of New and Old Game Hardware

At the Zuiki booth, they showcased numerous unique devices that would make any game enthusiast stop in their tracks, starting with controllers compatible with Nintendo Switch 2.

While products for the latest game consoles were lined up, we also discovered a small gadget that looked like a smartwatch.

This is a smartwatch-style game console that lets you enjoy retro games, and on its tiny screen, none other than Mega Man is running. The sight of a game actually running on a smartwatch-sized device is simply jaw-dropping, making you want to exclaim, "Amazing!" While the screen is, of course, quite small, that's part of what makes it so strangely exciting.

Furthermore, a working model of the "X68000 Z," which revives the legendary "X68000" personal computer for the modern era, was also on display. Along with its body, which shrinks the classic style, game screens could be seen, making it an exhibit that looked ready to be played. For those who remember the original X68000, this compact size alone would likely bring a knowing smile.

In addition, a lineup of unique game devices, including dedicated controllers for train simulation games and DanceDanceRevolution controllers, were also showcased. With exhibits spanning generations and genres, from Switch 2 to retro PCs and rhythm games, it was a booth that was simply fun to explore, making you wonder, "What's next?"
