From 1980 to 1991, [[Nintendo]] produced handheld electronic games called ''Game & Watch'', and there would be one game for each model of a ''Game & Watch''. ''Game & Watch'' games use an LCD screen, the same type as an ordinary calculator, which means characters and other moving objects can only move to pre-determined locations on the screen and everything appears flat. Whenever objects move, a beeping sound can be heard. In this stage, the fighters and stage elements on the screen are all flat, and beeping sounds are heard when walking on the stage. | From 1980 to 1991, [[Nintendo]] produced handheld electronic games called ''Game & Watch'', and there would be one game for each model of a ''Game & Watch''.

The other stage transformations are based off of the ''Game & Watch'' games ''Lion'', ''Oil Panic'', and ''Chef''. ''Lion'' involves two lion tamers trying to keep multiple circus lions in their cage with chairs; ''Oil Panic'' involves a gas station employee trying to dump oil into his boss's oil drum below, so it can be taken to people who needed their cars filled; and ''Chef'' involves a chef trying to keep several pieces of food in the air. All of these games are faithfully represented in Flat Zone 2, though in the case of ''Oil Panic'' (which had a dual screen à la the Nintendo DS and [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]]), only the bottom screen appears. | The other stage transformations are based off of the ''Game & Watch'' games ''Lion'', ''Oil Panic'', and ''Chef''.

It is the only Game & Watch game that is not part of Mr. Game & Watch's [[special move]]s, instead it is part of one of his tilt attacks.

*In English, the top of the Game | *In English, the top of the Game and Watch says, "Super Smash Bros." In the Japanese version, it says "Smash Brothers."
