First appearing in 1980, the Game & Watch series is the father of all portable liquid crystal games. The main character is simple and monochrome but has a timeless individuality. There are 39 different games in the series and they've sold over 43 million units worldwide. Pictured at left is the particularly popular Fire model. Game & Watch (1980)
A resident of a flat world. His appearance, and his very existence, radiate considerable impact and personality. Black. Extremely black. And extremely flat. "Chef" is a projectile that launches sausages. "Judge" has its attack type decided by a random number. Rolling a "7" is Lucky 7, causing a food item to appear. B: Chef; Side+B: Judge
A senior figure among Nintendo characters, he's relatively lightweight and doesn't have many attacks that boast standout power, so he may struggle a little. "Fire" summons a rescue team that literally saves him when he's about to fall. "Oil Panic" absorbs projectiles up to three times, then releases their combined damage. Up+B: Fire; Down+B: Oil Panic

Mr. Game & Watch SMASH
A man of great stature in the world of Nintendo characters, Mr. Game & Watch is a comparatively light fellow and doesn't feature many powerful attacks. When he's in danger of falling, Fire calls out a rescue brigade to send him skyward once more. He can also catch missile weapons with Oil Panic; once he's caught three, he can dump the bucket on his foes.
Game & Watch
This stage of Super Smash Bros. Melee takes its motif from the Game & Watch series. It incorporates settings from Oil Panic, Helmet, and Manhole, and it's sure to send a wave of nostalgia crashing over old-school gamers. If you want to truly reproduce the Game & Watch experience, try playing this unique level in Fixed-Camera Mode!

Mr. Resetti
Prepare to receive a really long talking-to if you reset this game: the next time you play, Mr. Resetti will be waiting to deliver his best scolding. No matter what your intentions are, pressing the RESET Button will bring you face-to-face with this fervent character. Sometimes, the only way to shut him up is to apologize.
The monochrome hero of the Game & Watch series, a fellow who oozes personality. First appearing in 1980, the series were the original portable game systems. The first games in the series were quite simple, but as time passed, technology evolved. The multiscreen series featured game play on dual screens. As the name states, the games also kept time.

Game & Watch was first released in 1980, making the series the father of the Game Boy and Nintendo DS. Or maybe an older sibling? Anyway...in Smash Bros., Mr. Game & Watch uses distinct retro moves to damage his foes. However, he's only two dimensional, so he's pretty easy to send flying.
Oil Panic is a special move that stores projectiles in a container, converting them to oil to attack the opponent. It can be charged up to three times, and releases when full. Some projectiles fill it up in a single hit. The oil's power changes based on the projectile absorbed — a fully charged Samus Charge Shot fills the container in one hit alone, with enough destructive power for a single KO.

Anyway...in Smash Bros., Mr. Game & Watch uses distinct retro moves to damage his foes. However, he's only two dimensional, so he's pretty easy to send flying. Game & Watch was a series of handheld video games that started in 1980, which pretty much makes Mr. Game & Watch the father of the Game Boy and Nintendo DS. Or maybe an older sibling? Anyway...in Smash Bros., Mr. Game & Watch uses distinct retro moves to damage his foes. However, he only has two dimensions, so he's pretty easy to send flying. Game & Watch was a series of handheld video games that started in 1980, before even the Game Boy. In this game, you can play as the guy who starred in them, moving about in his quirky, oh-so-retro little way. He can string together some pretty powerful attacks but, unfortunately, being 2D makes him very easy to launch.
Mr. Game & Watch (Alt.)
Mr. Game & Watch's Oil Panic special catches shots and turns them into oil. After catching three, the bucket will be full and you'll be able to throw oil all over your enemies. Some shots, like Samus's fully powered Charge Shot, will fill the bucket in one go! Throwing the oil you get from a shot like that can KO your foes in a flash!
This bucket can hold all manner of projectiles. Once filled, unleash the contents on an unsuspecting foe.
Absorbing a particularly powerful energy blast can fill the gauge in one go. However, even the weakest of attacks will always fill it by one segment.
Mr. Game & Watch first appeared in the early '80s in the Game & Watch handheld game series—predating even the NES and Game Boy!
This game character is older than Mario, coming from a series of handheld Nintendo games with LCD screens. Within the Game & Watch games, he took on various shapes and roles.
Mr. Game & Watch's moves Chef, Judge, Fire, Oil Panic, and Octopus are all named after games released in the Game & Watch series.
This move's power depends on the number displayed. Swinging a 1 is nearly useless, but a 9 has incredible launching power!
A pair of firemen launch Mr. Game & Watch high into the air. Nearby opponents will also be pushed back a bit.
This will only absorb energy-based projectiles. Physical projectiles, like Link's arrows, will be reflected instead.
This move can reflect items and physical projectiles that can't be absorbed. If something comes flying at you, give it a try!
You can extend the giant octopus tentacles farther by pressing the special-move button. They'll extend and retract even if you don't do anything, but pressing the button speeds up the movement.
Food jumps out of Mr. Game & Watch's frying pan in all directions. Use this to protect yourself.
You can change the timing of the flying food by varying the length of time you hold the button. Push it repeatedly to throw more food more quickly.
Three apples appear if the number seven shows up. You can eat these to heal up, but if you're not careful, an opponent might snap them up.
You can launch enemies sideways by hitting them on your ascent. This is a good way to turn the tables on someone waiting for you to pop up from a ledge.
You can use this to absorb explosions from Link's bombs or from Bob-ombs. Don't try it with the Bob-ombs that fall during Sudden Death, though.
The gauge doesn't reset when Mr. Game & Watch is KO'd. Try surprising enemies with a bucket full of boiling-hot oil as soon as you respawn!
For his Final Smash, he'll turn into a giant octopus and catch opponents in his tentacles. If an opponent doesn't escape by pressing buttons rapidly, they'll be dragged offstage.
An opponent caught in the giant octopus's tentacles will be dragged off-screen. If it seems like they might escape, you could purposefully hit a floor or wall to flick them away.
Release a puff of air right above you to push opponents. You can even try to KO an opponent with this if you can hit them from a high position onstage.
