I bet that if you were a kid in the 80's you should know about Tomy (Takara Tomy is in charge of Pokemon toys) or one of their yellow games: i was hypnotized by their Mr Money so bad that i wished him to eat all the coins in the entire world. Good old times but their masterpiece was the electric mechanical Tricky Traps: this handheld game made everyone fail and shout at it, with the peculiar thing that you just wanted to keep starting a game where you had to complete a trapped road with an iron ball by jumping, using a push button with the right timing (of course!), into every single obstacle to clear it up.
An italian company released a digital version of the legendary Tricky Traps, their name is Belka and if you are an android user you should try it out.
Extra:
Vintage toys are hard to find with their box, even harder if complete and in great conditions. A good price for the Tricky Traps is around 30$ - 25€ for a working and good conditions one and around 50$ - 45€ if in near mint conditions. The boxed version is rare and you should consider the price to be doubled. Remember to check if it's still working and if it comes with the battery cover!
