The octopus is very large, and flies about in the air while emitting hovering noises. It can be controlled by the player, and the tentacles will randomly extend towards enemy players, knocking them back and dealing heavy damage.

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 monochrome 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 firefighter team (note that this is the only one Up-B attack which is getting more distance when a character 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]].

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 [[aerial attack]]s 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 due 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 & Watch appears as an unlockable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He ''seems'' mostly unchanged from ''Melee'', but he is actually much more powerful and speedier than in the last game.


Interestingly, in a Dojo update where Sakurai explained some mysteries about the [[Subspace Emissary]], he says that [[Tabuu]] used Mr. Game & Watch's flat qualities to create [[Shadow Bug]]s, making Mr. Game & Watch the origin of Shadow Bugs, though Game & Watch is not aware of it himself.
