Quick preview:


My very first encounter of the third kind with electronic games.
Had a few of those Russian ones, I remember the "help them aliens jump to their ship" one, and of course "Nu pogodi" commonly known as "jajeczka" (eggs), based on the greatest Russian cartoon from that time...
There was also a 2-color Lotus-like (engine-wise) "Formula 1" racing game I used to love, but it's not in there...

Were those Russian ones copies of the Nintendo game and watch handhelds?

I've seen a Game and Watch emulator for browsers. And actually there are now quite a few emulators for browser gaming available. I'm going to explore setting some up for us here soon.

Yup, in most cases these were unlicensed (AKA "pirated") Nintendo clones

I have a complete set of all Game & Watch consoles. It's not very big in size, can't remember where I got it from though.

Do you perhaps have the one I'm looking for?
It was a Lotus-like racer in 2 color mode, the road was "driving at us", we had three lanes we could move to and avoid other cars and with time it got faster and faster.
Think it had Formula 1 type vehicles.
