Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) | comment |
Game & Watch Gallery is a series of games made for the Game Boy that are Compilation Rereleases of the Game & Watch series of handhelds.Four games were released for this series (five counting Game Boy Gallery, which predates the first game to actually use the Game & Watch Gallery name but was only released in Europe and Australia), each containing a few new versions of the Game & Watch games. In all of the Gallery releasesnote except for Game Boy Gallery, where all of the recreated Game & Watch games use "Classic"-style gameplay mixed with a "Modern" art style, the updated Game & Watch games can be played in two different visual styles: "Classic", which is a recreation of how the games originally looked, and "Modern", which uses a new visual style that utilizes the characters from the Super Mario Bros. series.The games in the series are: Game Boy Gallery, which contains the Game & Watch titles Ball, Vermin, Flagman, Manhole, and Mario's Cement Factory (renamed here as just Cement Factory). Game & Watch Gallery, which contains the titles Manhole, Fire, Octopus, and Oil Panic. Game & Watch Gallery 2, which contains the titles Parachute, Chef, Donkey Kong, Helmet, and Vermin. Ball is also featured as an unlockable game. Game & Watch Gallery 3, which was released for the Game Boy Color and contains the titles Egg, Green House, Turtle Bridge, Mario Bros., and Donkey Kong Jr. Flagman, Judge, Lion, Spitball Sparky, and Donkey Kong II are also unlockable as Classic versions only, alongside a special prerelease variant of Fire. Game & Watch Gallery 4 (Game & Watch Gallery Advance in Europe and Australia), which was released for the Game Boy Advance and contains the titles Fire, Boxing, Rain Shower, Mario's Cement Factory, Donkey Kong Jr., and Donkey Kong 3. Chef, Mario Bros., Donkey Kong, Octopus and Fire Attack are also featured as unlockable games. Through the Museum, it's also possible to play Classic versions of Manhole, Tropical Fish, Mario's Bombs Away, Parachute, Bombsweeper, Climber, Safe Buster, Lifeboat, and Zelda. | |

Artifact Title | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_2b7d29e1 | comment |
Artifact Title: The games no longer have watch or alarm functions, thus making the "Watch" aspect of the title outdated. Some modern versions of the games in Gallery also qualify compared to their classic counterparts: In Vermin, you control Yoshi who must defend his eggs against Fly Guys, Paratroopas and Boos instead of vermin. Subverted as Monty Mole will allow Yoshi to repair some eggs by giving him a heart. In Ball, the character you play will juggle many items not resembling balls. Subverted in Egg. Instead of catching eggs laid by hens, Yoshi must catch cookies on a conveyor belt. However, if he eats enough of any one type of cookie at the right temperature, he will lay an egg. In Turtle Bridge, you control Toad who must cross a makeshift bridge of Goonies across an open sky instead of turtles across a pond. In the original Rain Shower, a man is trying to keep his hanging clothes dry from a passing shower. In the remake, Mario must protect his friends from paint balloons thrown by Bowser. The remake of Mario's Cement Factory takes place in a cookie factory. The new Fire Attack involves Wario protecting a giant golden statue of himself from being blown up by Bullet Bills and Bob-ombs — as opposed to a Cowboy protecting a wooden fort from being burned down by Native Americans. | |

Wolverine Publicity: Mario and friends were the main attraction, as Mr. Game & Watch wouldn't be recognizable or appealing to contemporary audiences until 2001. Mr. Game & Watch himself would eventually become a featured character in the final installment. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
Unintentionally Unwinnable: In order to complete the museum of 3, one needs to get 5 stars in every mode for each game. One of these is Game B of Judge, which instead of a harder version, is a 2-player version. Because the 3DS Virtual Console Game Boy lacks a multiplayer mode, this makes collecting the five stars in that mode impossible, and by extension, makes the player unable to reach 100% Completion. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Game Boy Gallery had no distinction between Modern and Classic modes and instead each game had a hybrid of the two future modes for its games. The games also featured neither the Game & Watch men nor the Mario cast and instead featured a living marionette as the sole playable character. The first Game & Watch Gallery game, compared to later releases. The Gallery Corner only had the unplayable demos, which would become the Museum from 2 onward. There was no star counter, as titles in the Gallery Corner required 400 or 800 points to open. The heart in Modern versions was much smaller and harder to see. Different sound effects played for pausing in Modern and Classic versions. Getting a Game Over sent you back to the Mode Select screen, with no option to retry. | |

Covered in Gunge | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_6c62b1a8 | comment |
Covered in Gunge: Much like the classic counterparts, these result in misses. Yoshi letting Toad, Donkey Kong Jr. or Mario fall in Manhole. Mario dousing Donkey Kong Jr. or Luigi with oil in Oil Panic. In Mario's Cement Factory, letting one of the cookie dough basins overflow with the excess dough landing on either Yoshi or Toad. Rain Shower adds the possibility of Mario's friends getting hit with Bowser's paint balloons (except for Yoshi who eats them). | |

Jerkass Ball: Peach shows little concern over Mario injuring himself in the Attract Mode for Donkey Kong, ignoring him in favor of cheering the guy who caused said injury. In modern remakes of Octopus, she doesn't show concern for Mario when he's attacked by the octopus. in the the Attract Mode for Rainshower, Waluigi deliberately tries to bring harm to a toad. In the game proper, he'll sometimes put Wario in the line of fire. | |

Songs in the Key of Panic: In Modern versions of the games, the music will get faster as your points get closer and closer to a hundred. They go back to a slower tempo once you get those next hundred points. When you reach 1,000 points, it stays at the fastest speed possible. | |

Revisiting the Roots: The Modern versions revisit Mario's original role as The Everyman working a variety of odd jobs (particularly games he originally starred in, such as Mario Bros. and Mario's Cement Factory), but with the supporting character and elements he's accumulated since. | |

Promoted to Playable | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_b8f8b892 | comment |
Promoted to Playable: Mario, Luigi and Yoshi are protagonists in the Game & Watch Gallery games. The sequels play with this. 2: Wario is playable in Helmet through an Easter Egg, and Princess Peach is the main character in Chef. Ball also has unlockable characters in Wario and Bowser. 3: Toad is the central character in Turtle Bridge, and Donkey Kong Jr. is playable in his namesake game. Luigi—a background character in Chef from 2—returns to being playable in Mario Bros. 4: Wiggler, Big Boo and Waluigi are playable through linked play in Boxing. The same goes for Donkey Kong in the two-player version of Donkey Kong 3. Peach again is the central character in Chef while Wario goes from NPC in 3 to playable in Fire Attack. Inverted with Yoshi who is not playable for any of the games in 4. | |

Border-Occupying Decorations: The first three games feature dynamic Super Game Boy borders based around the various included games. Playing them in modern mode presents borders depicting lush landscapes, many of which imitate the visual style of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Playing them in classic mode, however, bring up borders based on the original Game & Watch devices. The original Game Boy Gallery, meanwhile, only features the Classic borders. | |

Unlockable Difficulty Levels: Every game in the collections has two difficulties of easy or hard (excluding those with a multiplayer function). If one gets 1000 points on either difficulty for the modern version of a game, a very hard star mode is unlocked for that game (again with the exception of games with a 2-player). | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: The ability to suspend play by pausing and turning off the power. Earning 1,000 points can take roughy a half an hour if successful on the first try, so this was a welcome feature. Two Classic modes in 3 reduce the number of points necessary for stars. In Flagman, five points are needed per star so you can max out at 25 points. You get a star for every 20 points in Judge, and getting the maximum score of 99 rewards you with five stars. In both versions of Boxing in 4, you get a star for every three KO's so you can max out at 15. In classic versions of Manhole, the central character can only possess one cover at a time, and allowing pedestrians to walk over an open hole is an immediate miss. In the modern version from the first Gallery, Yoshi is provided with covers for all four holes which he can bring up each time a pedestrian walks on one. Yoshi can also avoid a miss by saving a pedestrian in mid-fall. In the original Mario's Cement Factory, the moving platforms were lethal if you weren't immediately on their level when trying to board them, falling right through any other platforms that might be on the screen at the time, which could get ridiculous if the platform was about to rise and you just pressed the button a tiny bit too early. In the Modern version, jumping down onto a platform below you is possible and you won't take damage. The Wii U Virtual Console rerelease of 4 removes the two-player modes in Boxing and Donkey Kong 3. After you get every star in all the other games, you will be credited with the unattainable stars and treated to the cast credits. | |

Game & Watch Gallery (Video Game) / int_dbd8e795 | comment |
Gaiden Game: The first official game in the series is Game Boy Gallery which was only launched into UK and Australian markets in 1994. It includes Ball, Manhole, Vermin, Flagman and Mario's Cement Factory (renamed to just Cement Factory). The games are simply the classic variants with updated visuals, there are no Mario characters or references whatsoever and it noticeably lacks features that made the rest of the series more enjoyable (suspend play, unlockables, score saving etc.). The only reason it can be considered part of the series at all is that Australia used Game Boy Gallery as its Market-Based Title for all future Game & Watch Galley releases. For those interested into game coding, Wario Land II uses the Game Boy Gallery version of Flagman as the basis for one of the minigames, including the Super Game Boy border. Also counts as Remade Forthe Export, as Wario Land II was released in Japan and North America. | |

Video-Game Lives: The games usually take a variant on this; they track misses instead (which can be removed with a 1-Up bonus). Donkey Kong is the outlier where the game tracks lives the traditional way. | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment: In the modern versions of Chef, you can feed burnt foods to Yoshi. Doing so will not result in a miss, but he will either lose his egg or shrink down to baby-sized depending on his condition. Strangely enough, you get a point for doing this. In Fire Attack, Wario can stand near egg-laying hens for bonus points. You don't get any points for hitting one but you also don't get a miss. | |
