Character description
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.
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 (note that this is the only one Up-B attack which is getting more distance when a charakter is big by getting a mushroom); 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.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Mr. Game & Watch appears as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He seems mostly unchanged from Melee, but his Parachute is now slower. Multiple Mr. Game & Watches have been seen in the Subspace Emissary piloting the Halberd.
