It was originally a cartoon. I remember watching it growing up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu,_pogodi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nu,_pogodi!

  Of course! I've been watching it for an hour now (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ko6UEwT9i20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ko6UEwT9i20). I wanted to find something about Nu Pogodi and found the hand-held game I played ~20 years ago.

  Indeed, I didn't even know a handheld game existed.

  Interestingly, Wikipedia translates "Nu, pogodi" as "Well, you just wait". Actually, this phrase is a threat and should be translated something like "I will get you".

    Idiomatically, "just you wait!" is a threat. http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/just-you-wait http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/just-you-...

      Thank you, I did not know that. It is sometimes very surprising to see such identical idioms, while English and Russian languages are so different.

  A Soviet/Russian classic! I grew up in Canada, but was exposed to it by my parents.
