Asteroids Watch – But I Want to Play!

By

Reading time 1 minute

Fossil is coming out with a line of watches with arcade game themes. This one, inspired by the ultimate in vector graphics, Asteroids, features the hero—a triangle—fighting off the villain and his minions—the squarish blocky things. Remember Asteroids? I think it came out in 1979 and there was a mod you could download via punchcard, as well, to make the triangle have sex with one of the blocky things. God, that was a simpler time.

Priced at $130 and available at Fossil.com, this blast from the past, which isn’t playable, unfortunately, will truly allow me to wear my geek stink on, or near, my sleeve.
