The '''''Game & Watch Gallery''''' series | The '''''Game & Watch Gallery''''' series is a series for the [[Game Boy]] line that recreates most of the [[Game & Watch]] titles. Most of those games are given Modern versions, which feature characters of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]], and Classic versions, which recreate their original versions but remove the timekeeping functions to allow the player to get the maximum score possible. | ||

''[[nwiki:Game Boy Gallery|Game Boy Gallery]]'' is the first installment in the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series, and it is by far the simplest. Unlike the other games in the series, this game does not have Classic or Modern modes. Instead, the games come with graphics similar to those of Modern Mode (though without characters of the ''Super Mario'' franchise), but the gameplay is that of Classic Mode. The games feature nameless individuals as the main characters. The games included in here are ''[[Ball]]'', ''[[Vermin]]'', ''[[Flagman]]'', ''[[Manhole (Game & Watch)|Manhole]]'', and ''[[Mario's Cement Factory|Cement Factory]]'' but with some differences and similarities: | |||
*''Ball'' uses a [[Mario]]-like character and uses the balls' sprite from the original version. In both difficulties, three balls must be juggled, and only one [[point]] per bounce is given. | |||

*''Vermin'' now has [[turnip]]s that the player must protect. In Game A, there is a barrier that prevents moles from coming through the center. | *''Vermin'' now has [[turnip]]s that the player must protect. In Game A, there is a barrier that prevents moles from coming through the center. | ||

Game B features six-button gameplay. | *''Flagman'' now has a miss counter instead of a life counter and shows the numbers in horizontal and vertical directions.

All of the games have a background, and music can be toggled on and off in the games' Options menu. ''Game Boy Gallery'' is also the only game in the series not to be officially released in North America or Japan, as well as not to be rereleased on the [[Virtual Console]] or the [[Nintendo Switch Online]] membership. | |||

''[[Game & Watch Gallery]]'' is the second installment in the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series. It is the first game in the series to use characters of the ''Super Mario'' franchise, to use stars for every 200 points, to use the [[Gallery Corner]], and to include Modern and Classic revisions of the games. The games included are ''Manhole'', ''[[Fire (Game & Watch)|Fire]]'', ''[[Octopus (Game & Watch)|Octopus]]'', and ''[[Oil Panic]]'' but with some differences and similarities: | |||
* ''Manhole''{{'}}s controls are reused from ''Game Boy Gallery'' (both versions). The Classic version is based on the New Wide Screen version. | * ''Manhole''{{'}}s controls are reused from ''Game Boy Gallery'' (both versions). The Classic version is based on the New Wide Screen version. | ||

''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]'' is the third installment in the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series. This game marks the first appearances of the [[Music Room]] and the [[Message Board|Note Board]]. The games included in here are ''[[Parachute (Game & Watch)|Parachute]]'', ''[[Helmet (Game & Watch)|Helmet]]'', ''[[Chef]]'', ''Vermin'', ''[[Donkey Kong (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong]]'', and ''Ball'' (unlockable). This is the only game in the entire series to have a varied quantity of borders on the pause menu (21 in total) and to have the pause menu with different colors (depending on the game/version). In this game's Museum, ''Game & Watch Gallery''{{'}}s Museum titles also reappear here (linking required), but the sample of those games in action is static. On the Game Select screen, after any game is highlighted, some characters pop out from the stars between the game's title (does not apply for ''Ball''), and then they look as if they are dancing. Toggling the music on and off on the Mode Select screen applies only to the selected game. | |||

''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'' is the fourth installment in the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series. This game marks the first appearance of a Secret section in the Gallery Corner. The games included in here are ''[[Egg (Game & Watch)|Egg]]'', ''[[Greenhouse]]'', ''[[Turtle Bridge]]'', ''[[Mario Bros. (Game & Watch)|Mario Bros.]]'', and ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' The unlockable games are ''[[nwiki:Flagman|Flagman]]'', ''[[nwiki:Judge|Judge]]'', ''[[nwiki:Lion|Lion]]'', ''[[nwiki:Spitball Sparky|Spitball Sparky]]'', and ''[[Donkey Kong II]]''. In this game, the unlockable games have only Classic Mode. The game holds the feature of applying the on-and-off music-toggling from ''Game & Watch Gallery''. On the Game Select screen, after any game is highlighted, the [[Lakitu]]s that hold arrows between the game's title go away, and then some characters make a repetitive cutscene (does not apply for ''Flagman'', ''Judge'', ''Lion'', ''Spitball Sparky'', or ''Donkey Kong II''). | |||

''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]'' is the fifth and final game in the ''Game & Watch Gallery'' series. This game marks the first appearance of a Game & Watch timeline in the series. The games included in here are ''Fire'', ''[[Boxing]]'', ''[[Rain Shower]]'', ''[[Mario's Cement Factory]]'', ''Donkey Kong Jr.'', and ''[[Donkey Kong 3 (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong 3]]''. The unlockable games are ''Chef'', ''Mario Bros.'', ''Donkey Kong'', ''Octopus'', and ''[[Fire Attack]]''. The Museum games are ''Manhole'', ''[[nwiki:Tropical Fish|Tropical Fish]]'', ''[[Mario's Bombs Away]]'', ''Parachute'', ''[[nwiki:Bomb Sweeper|Bomb Sweeper]]'', ''[[nwiki:Climber|Climber]]'', ''[[nwiki:Safe Buster|Safe Buster]]'', ''[[nwiki:Life Boat|Life Boat]]'', and ''[[ZeldaWiki:Zelda (Game & Watch)|Zelda]]''. This game is the first and only one having two-player Single-Pak link games (unlike ''Game & Watch Gallery 3'', whose only two-player game required Multi-Pak link for the two-player mode). Those games' rules were simplified for easy completion in said mode. On the Game Select screen, highlighting a game's title changes it to its original port's logo (also applies for the Museum games). | |||

In this game, the Game Select screen once again holds its star storage structure from ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'', but it switches from left to right when in primary or secondary games, respectively. Something exclusive to this game is that when a primary or secondary game is highlighted, the game title turns into the original version's logo. Like in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'', after a game is highlighted for a while, a mini-cutscene with some representative characters plays.
