Casio’s G-Shock watch line has joined forces with Nintendo's Super Mario Brothers to release a limited-edition watch that will bring nostalgia to most people. The retro-themed portable timepiece offers a beautiful design and it is one of the best Casio designs that have been sold so far.
The new G-Shock x Super Mario Brothers watch is set to be distributed to customers starting Nov. 11 since the timepieces were pre-ordered. The watch was given the DW-5600SMB-4 model number and it is said to be based on the Super Mario Bros. video fame that was originally made for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) that was first launched in 1985.
As mentioned on Nintendo Life, the Super Mario Bros. G-Shock watch has the same features as the typical Casio watch including the date, digital clock, alarms, and other functions. These are easily seen on the display, however, the collaborative limited-edition item has a different bezel display since it was designed with the pixelated art that is common in Super Mario Bros. games.
The fonts on the bezel are also in the same form as in the game and these alone already give the retro vibe of the favorite video game in the 1980s. The game proved to be really popular and it is still loved up to now, even with some upgrades to the characters’ appearance and colors.
Like the other Casio watches, the Super Mario G-Shock has a backlight as well, but instead of the usual plain yellowish light, the new watch will have a backlight that will show Mario’s image along with the “1Up” logo. The watch’s housing is red which obviously represents the main character’s jumper’s original color. It is shock-resistant and has 2-year battery life.
As per CNET, this collaboration between Nintendo and Casio will offer the Super Mario G-Shock watch for $150 in the United States, £129 in the U.K., and priced at 17,600 yen in Japan. The item is set to be released in a box specially designed to pay homage to the iconic Super Mario video game.
