What screwdriver should be used to unscrew Game and Watch screws?

I was wondering what screwdriver is required to undo the Game and Watch screws. This question is not for the new Game and watches with the tri-wing screws. This is for the ones from the 80's era.

(Sorry for thread revival).

It's some kind of proprietary variation of a flat head screw with a registration pin in the centre. A standard 3mm flat head will work, but it'll just be a little more precarious than normal because of the gap in the middle. I've only been searching for a day, but I don't know if these are available today. If anything, they might be found in Akihabara in Tokyo or Den-den town in Osaka,
