Mr. Game & Watch is a character who was created for Super Smash Bros. Melee. He is a living homage to Nintendo's Game & Watch games and is specifically designed to resemble the monochromatic sprites of the early Game & Watch titles (although graphics did improve as the Game & Watch series continued).

Background

Mr. Game & Watch first appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee as an unlockable fighter (the last one to be unlocked) who speaks in only beeps and whistles (to represent the limited sound in early Game & Watch games) and moves in a stilted, frame-by-frame movement. Mr. Game & Watch returned as an unlockable fighter in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Outside the Smash Bros. series, Mr. Game & Watch also made a small appearance in Game & Watch Gallery 4, where he hosted the Present Mode alongside Mario and was perfectly capable of speech.

Abilities

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, nearly all of his moves are based on Game & Watch games. His main B button attacks are:

  • Chef- Mr. Game & Watch uses a frying pan to fling susages at enemies, only up to five at a time.
  • Judgement- Mr. Game & Watch strikes with a hammer while drawing a flag. The effects of this attack are randomized based on the number that appears on the flag, and in some cases may result in Mr. Game and Watch hurting himself.
  • Fire- Mr. Game & Watch summons a pair of men with a trampoline to bounce him into the air. This attack acts as his third jump.
  • Oil Panic- Mr. Game & Watch collects three missile attacks in a container and can then unleash it on the enemy.

His normal attacks include Green House, Helmet, Lion, Flag Man, Manhole, Fire Attack, Octopus, Vermin, Parachute, Cement Factory, Turtle Bridge, Spitball Sparky, and Donkey Kong Jr..

Mr. Game & Watch also has several attacks where he wields a bell as a weapon, in an homage to the Game & Watch's alarm. Despite his great variety of moves, he is very light and thus can be knocked offstage easily.

Trivia

  • In Melee he has three trophies. He is unlocked by playing 1000 rounds of Vs. Mode or clearing Classic, Adventure, or Target Test with all the characters except for Game and Watch.
