If you grew up playing Mega Man 2 on the NES and the game holds a special place in your heart, this smartwatch is going to be right up your alley.
The Mega Man: My Play Watch is a collaboration between MyPlayWatch and Capcom, and it’s exactly what it sounds like: a smartwatch that lets you play a reimagined version of Mega Man 2 right on your wrist.
But how does it actually play?
The gameplay has been redesigned from the ground up for a touchscreen. Mega Man auto-runs through each stage while you tap to fire, time your jumps, and dodge hazards. It sounds simple, and that’s the point.
You are not going to replicate the full NES experience on a 1.91-inch screen, and the developers know that. Instead, they have created something that captures the feel of the original game.
There are three game modes to choose from. Classic Mode lets you pick Robot Master stages, defeat bosses, and eventually unlock Dr. Wily’s Castle. Arcade Mode cranks up the speed and difficulty as you chase high scores. Play Time Mode turns the watch into an animated Mega Man display, which honestly might be my favorite mode.
What else the Watch can do?
The watch is not just for playing games but also has built-in sensors that can track your steps, heart rate, and calories throughout the day, all wrapped in Mega Man-inspired visuals. The watch faces feature pixel art and animated characters, so it looks great even when you’re not playing.
The best part might be what it doesn’t do. There is no Bluetooth, no Wi-Fi, no notifications, and no apps. It’s a focused, distraction-free device built purely for play and health tracking.
In a world where everything screams for your attention, that’s genuinely refreshing. The watch is available for pre-order now for $79.99 from GameStop‘s website.
