Review Game & Watch Manhole (DSiWare)
Everyone walks all over a nice guy
The Game & Watch series was Nintendo's first real foray into the world of portable video gaming.

About The Game
Experience a piece of Nintendo history with the Game & Watch series for Nintendo DSiWare. Each title is a perfect recreation of a classic LCD game from the early 1980s, including normal Game A and alternate Game B modes.
And no Game & Watch title would be complete without the ‘Watch’ function - each title includes a fully functional clock.
Manhole is a hectic game in which you must plug holes in the street. Using only one manhole cover, move quickly from hole to hole, and hold the cover in place as the pedestrians cross. You lose a life for any people that fall into the sewer. Game B challenges you with a faster pace.
