'''Mr. Game and Watch''' is, without any doubt, the most bizarre character in the game. He appears as an unlockable character in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]].

Mr. Game and Watch has appeared in Melee, and will probably appear in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]].

==Special Moves==
In the early years of the 1980's, game designer Gunpei Yokoi created a small hand-held console called Game & Watch that featured a single game as well as an alarm and clock, debuting Nintendo's first video game character, a simple black stick figure. He was finally given his name when he appeared in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]].

Mr. Game & Watch makes his Smash-series debut as the final [[unlockable]] character in Melee. Mr. Game and Watch can be unlocked one of four ways: completing either [[Classic]] or [[Adventure]] with all characters on any difficulty and [[stock]] or the [[Target Test]] with all characters, or playing 1000 vs. mode matches.

Mr. Game & Watch fights with a variety of items derived from the Game & Watch series. [[Chef]], his B-move, launches sausages at random distances from a pan. At closer distances this pan can be used as a pseudo spike; [[Judgement]], his side-b, is a hammer with randomly chosen strength and effects, ranging from weak (1) to strong (9); [[Fire]], his up-b, launched Mr. Game & Watch at a lengthy vertical distance, with the help of a medical team; [[Oil Panic]], his down-b, allows him to catch energy based projectiles. Once three projectiles were caught, the contents can be dumped as a flow of oil, causing damage depending on the projectiles caught. This move can be used to cause the [[Kamikaze Glitch]].

Mr. Game & Watch translated well into Super Smash Bros. Melee, however, this proves to become a severe disadvantage. His movement is choppy and sluggish, thus become dependent on [[wavedashing]] and [[dash-dancing]] as his primary method of movement. His moves, primarily his B-moves, have very limited uses in competitive play and several of his [[aerials]] cannot be [[L-canceling|L-canceled]]. However, the few usable moves he has came equipped with high range and a very large [[hitbox]], many of which are powerful finishers. Aside from his moves, Mr. Game and Watch's throws are very useful do to the fact they can all be used as to chain grab. Mr. Game & Watch's defensive game is arguably his worst property, with an extremely small [[shield]] and a very poor [[side step]] and [[roll]], causes him to have a very small defensive game. This combined with the fact that he is very light, causes him to die at very low percentages. Mr. Game and Watch players must therefore be able to read their opponents ridiculously well in order to simply survive and to have a chance in competitive play.
Mr. Game and Watch will be unlocked by playing Classic or Adventure mode with all 24 characters or or playing 1000 Vs. Mode matches.


==In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''==
==Trophies==
It is unknown whether  or not Mr. Game and Watch will make an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. However, there is a theory of the inclusion of the Game and Watch series in ''Brawl'' that involves the numbering of each icon on the official website for ''Brawl'', [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]]. When the icons are saved as images, they have predetermined names. Each name has a number. Due to the numbering of the icons, the franchises that were introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' are numbered between those in the [[Super Smash Bros.|original Super Smash Bros.]] and ''Brawl''. However, there were only three franchises introduced in ''Melee'' -- [[Fire Emblem (universe)|Fire Emblem]], Game and Watch, and [[Ice Climber (universe)|Ice Climber]]. The 12th icon is Fire Emblem, and the 14th icon is Ice Climber. Due to this ordering, icon 13 has to be a franchise that was introduced to Super Smash Bros. in ''Melee''. Because Fire Emblem and Ice Climber are already icons 12 and 14, the Game and Watch series is the only franchise that can be icon 13, meaning that there will be some Game and Watch content in ''Brawl''.
