From the Mask ROM image, to a C#/SDL3 app! Thank you so much for your hard work @OneBitOnePixel in the extraction! Now, we revel in nostalgic wonder!
So, here are some findings:
1/3 D-Tector – uses a Sunplus SPL191 microcontroller (or something similar). The ROM die has been fully photographed.

Wow, thanks a lot for the info! Could you clarify whether someone has already decapped and examined the PP Color's MCU, or where this information came from?
3/3 Digivice Ver. Revival – uses a Sonix MCU labeled "SLL86F8". Unfortunately, it appears to use flash memory, meaning the ROM cannot be read optically.

2/3 Pocket Pikachu Color – the ROM die has been fully photographed, but the microcontroller architecture is unfortunately unknown (assuming it's even a general-purpose microcontroller).

Yes, unfortunately :( I still prefer broken or battered units – it doesn't feel as bad breaking them.
Indeed, the controls and the "peripherals" are very similar. I wonder if there is a connection between them.
Puyolin (ぷよりん) LCD game has been dumped and emulated. It runs on a Holtek HT1190 4-bit microcontroller.

It's great that someone else is developing for this watch, too! By the way, I also got into more or less serious assembly programming because of this watch.

This watch is unique in that it can run programs loaded onto it, which is what initially piqued my interest. There are a few other models I'm interested in, like the Casio VDB-1000 and Seiko RC-1000, but I don't think I'll ever get my hands on one to reverse engineer.

Now I understand what you mean. I've seen a few such projects, but I don't think I've seen anything systematic.
