The following are articles for the Game and Watch Wiki. Nobody edit this but BlindColours™ and the Game and Watch Wiki staff! There will be an article here soon! I'm working on a few articles.

Mr. Game and Watch

Game and Watch redirects here, for the Game and Watch series, see here.

Mr. Game and Watch, or Mr. G&W, for short, is the main protagonist in the Game and Watch Series. He made his first appearence as a playable character in the Game & Watch game Ball, and only a few Game and Watch games have been made where he doesn't appear as a playable character, such as Donkey Kong Jr. and Game and Watch Gallery. Mr. G&W has made an appearence in three series to date: the Game and Watch series, the Super Smash Bros. Series, and a cameo appearence in the Donkey Kong series. Mr. Game and Watch did not have an official name until Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Game and Watch

Ball

In Ball, Mr. G&W is the juggler, who must keep 2-3 balls aloft, and keep the balls from falling.

Flagman

Mr. Game and Watch is the flagman, who must show the corresponding flags in sequence that is shown.

Chef

In Chef, Mr. Game and Watch has a similair role like that of Ball. He must keep the various food in the air, and avoid the cat, whom snatches food. It is a more complex version of Ball, with more difficulty depending if the player chooses Game A or Game B, respectively.

——————————————————————————————————

Mario

Mario is the main protagonist of the Mario series. He makes many cameo appearences throughout the Game and Watch series, such as in Donkey Kong Jr., and Game and Watch Gallery. Mario has even come to substitute Mr. Game and Watch for various games, such as the last Game and Watch game, Mario the Juggler.

Donkey Kong Jr.

The portable version of Donkey Kong Jr. gives Mario the same role as in the arcade classic. Mario acts as the antagonist and captures Donkey Kong and sits below his cage, on a small branch.

Mario the Juggler

The Game and Watch's last game in the series is a remake of Ball. In this remake, Mario substitutes Mr. Game and Watch as the Juggler. As the same basis with Ball, Mario's role in the game is to juggle two to three balls, depending whether Game A or Game B is chosen, respectivley. Many Mario elements have also been added, such as the Mario themed background instead of a plain white background.

Game and Watch Gallery

In this remake of some of the Game and Watch games, Mario substitutes Mr. Game and Watch in many roles, such as the diver in the Octopus remake. As this game is a Mario themed remake of the Game and Watch games, all of Mr. G&W's roles are substituted by Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Bowser, and Yoshi.

Flagman

Flagman is the second Game & Watch game released for the SilverRange series on June 5, 1980 as the second portable gaming system for the Game and Watch series. The game involves a Simon says style game. In this game, Mr. Game and Watch's role is "Simon", or the "Flagman", holding up a pattern of flags up.

Gameplay

The device has four buttons, which correspond to the numbers, one, two, three, and four, on the screen. As with most Game and Watch games, the game features two modes: Game A, and Game B. Game A involves repeating a pattern in the numerical order Mr. Game and Watch "flags". The player is allowed three "Miss" chances, and can lose one if the incorrect number is chosen, or if one number in the pattern is not pushed in time. Game B introduces a more difficult mode. All the rules in Game A apply, and includes a timer that if reaches zero before the pattern is completed, will cost the player a miss.
