The following content are media from the Game & Watch universe that appeared throughout the Super Smash Bros. franchise. The latest game represented in this universe is Game & Watch Gallery 4, released on October 25, 2002.

Game & Watch series

• Playable characters:
  • Mr. Game & Watch is an amalgamation of several characters seen throughout the Game & Watch franchise. Most of his moves are direct references to at least one game. These references are taken further in Ultimate by having him morph during several moves to look like those characters.
  • Mr. Game & Watch's pummel attack and up and side taunts reference the alarm feature found on most Game & Watch units.
• Stages:
  • Flat Zone contains elements from several Game & Watch titles. The stage itself is designed to look like a Gold Series handheld.
  • Flat Zone 2 rotates between several layouts based on classic Game & Watch titles. The stage itself is designed to look like a Wide Screen Series handheld.
  • Both previous stages were combined into Flat Zone X.
• Trophies:
  • Mr. Game & Watch and a Game & Watch unit appear as trophies.
• Spirits:
  • Mr. Game & Watch appears as a spirit.
• Music:
  • "Flat Zone": An original composition composed of atmospheric techno-sounds mixed with the bleep noises of the oldest Game & Watch games. It appears in Flat Zone.
  • "Flat Zone 2": Much like the Flat Zone music from Melee, this track is constructed out of various sound effects from the Game & Watch games, but has a decidedly different ambiance than the previous one, with the track being mainly composed of Game & Watch sound effects, rather than having them dully in the background. It is used on the Flat Zone 2 stage. This song also plays during Mr. Game & Watch's Classic Mode credits.
