The Bandai Fishing Sonar for the GameBoy has just been released. This fish-finder plugs into the GameBoy cartridge port and enables anglers to detect fish up to 20 meters deep when the float is placed in water. The read out then appears on the GameBoy screen. Priced at 14,800 Yen (approx. USD$100), this Bandai unit is developed with the help of Honda Electronics Co., which is experienced in the manufacturing of sonar products. While waiting for fish, you can also play with the built-in mini game.

and a fishing game for Gameboy called the Handy Watcher, with a special fish finder peripheral that can detect the location of the fish under the water. I wonder if the Gameboy is going to get Train de GO! with it's addon controller soon.. it has every other possible periphreal. Hmm, maybe 3D glasses, no wait, that was the Virtual Boy. Nevermind...

Game Boy Goes Fishing Bandai displayed an interesting little peripheral for Nintendo's Game Boy at the Tokyo Game Show last weekend. The device is called the Handy Watcher, and it acts like a fish finder. Connect the device to Game Boy and float its sensor in the sea water. It will detect sea level, terrain under the sea, and schools of fish. For real. Handy Watcher for Game Boy is slated for a July release and will retail for 14,800 yen (about $115).
It was in Angling Times of 26 August 1998, page 4, headed 'Pocket Sonar is latest hi-tec angling weapon'

'Computer game wizardy is the latest wizardry for anglers desperate to boost their catch rate. Japanese company Bandai has launched an ingenious device called the Pocket Sonar, which uses a Nintendo Gameboy to target fish with deadly accuracy. The compact gadget functions like a fishfinder by displaying an underwater image on the screen. For 14,800 yen (about UKP 65), oriental anglers can now pinpoint fish in their swim and even scan the depth of a river or seabed down to a depth of 20 metres. The gadget relies on a sensor attached to a float with the images sent through a 15 metre cable joined to a special software cartridge. Bandai reckons it's on to a real winner with the electronic fish-hunting gizmo. A spokesperson said: "The Japanese are very keen on fishing and the sonar has sold very well over there. Previously we only sold our products in toy shops but the sonar is breaking new ground by taking us into tackle shops". Despite selling like hot spring rolls in the Far East, there is no information on when the Pocket Sonar will be released in the UK.

This is Nintendo's first SFC release since Feb. 1997 (Bass Fishing No. 1).
