Nintendo Once Did Real Life Co-Operative Play on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Even in the days before the Internet, Nintendo were pondering communication as seen in a newly found walkie-talkie toy.

Known as the "Nintendo Transceiver Companion", these chunky devices were branded walkie-talkies created by the Nintendo of old, with the company's original pre-Mario logo.  As found by French site GameBlog, these are caged in a nifty red and blue and offered owners the chance to engage in real life co-operative gameplay. Internally, the components were manufactured by Sharp, with the original toy going on sale back in 1966.

Wow, Nintendo seem to have always been pondering communication, even before the internet. I find myself pondering communication IN the days of the internet - I should really take note; I could have been pondering communication for so much longer. Oh Nintendo, you're always one step ahead!

Any idea how well these things worked? Was it a cheap toy or did it work really well?
