Rare 'Johnny’s Gadgets' Game Watch

Man, who had one of those game watches in the '80s? Specifically, 'Johnny’s Gadgets' the one where you defused bombs. It was made by this off-brand electronics company, and I’ve never seen another one since childhood. Would kill to play that again, even just a screenshot would be a blast from the past. 😭

Johnny’s Gadgets sounds familiar, but I can't place it... A lot of those old game watches had like generic bomb defusal games, are you sure it was that specific brand? Anyway, hope you find it, dude. It's always cool when someone rediscovers their childhood obsessions.

Buddy, you’re in for a hunt. 'Johnny’s Gadgets' was a niche gem. Even in hardcore collecting circles it barely comes up. If you're serious about finding one, you’ll probably wanna hit up some of the old-school forums or collectors’ groups on Facebook. Don’t forget to check swap meets and thrift stores – you’d be surprised what gems turn up there.

Game watches? Pfffffft... Kid stuff. Get yourself a real watch. Or you can’t tell the time without defusing a bomb?

ugh I wish I could help but googling it is a pain. Did you try eBay? Sometimes sellers have pics up of vintage stuff.

Wow, Johnny’s Gadgets - that takes me back. Wasn’t that made by Caltron or something? I can’t remember the company name, but the gameplay was legit. Pity these babies didn’t catch on as much as they should’ve. Hoping someone finds it for the sweet nostalgia kick!

Hey, I might have what you’re looking for. I collect vintage electronics and game watches are part of my collection. Johnny’s Gadgets wasn’t a big hit so it's pretty rare, but I’ll dig into my boxes and try to find it. Fingers crossed, I’ll update you soon!

I totally remember those! Not Johnny’s Gadgets specifically, but I had a similar one from that era. It's nuts how these game watches were so cool back in the day. If you find a pic or emulator, share the goodness!
