Background

The Game & Watch series was made up of LCD games that began being sold in 1980. Game & Watch is the only 2D character in the Smash Bros series.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Nintendo’s “jack of all trades”, Game and Watch has had every profession imaginable at some point in time. He’s the most unique and gimmicky character in the game, with virtually all his moves borrowed from a different game he’s been in. Whether he’s tossing sausages out of a frying pan, passing judgment on fellow characters or creating oil spills, Gee Dubya is a highly entertaining character to use, if not all that strong.

Role in SSE

Mr. Game & Watch's role in Subspace Emissary is a rather small one. Tabuu apparently takes part of Mr. Game & Watch's body mass and uses this to create and infinite amount of shadow bugs he then uses to create the subspace army. You encounter him on the Halberd and you fight him with Lucario, Snake and Meta Knight. After the battle you send them onto the front deck before they turn into a boss, namely Duon. Falco appears in his Arwing, leaving you to fight with him, along with Lucario, Snake, Meta Knight, Zelda, Fox and Peach. After that he will join your team!

Multiplayer

Pros

• Oil Panic can catch three energy-based projectiles and uses them to charge itself
• Large, disjointed hitboxes with good priority on most attacks
• Bair is a good approach
• Dthrow is good for tech chasing
• Can crouch under many projectiles
• All smashes have high knockback
• Can juggle opponents easily with his Nair and Utilt
• Level 9 Judgement is incredibly powerful
• Can kill at relatively low percents
• Good recovery

Cons

• Second lightest character in the game
• Judgment is based on luck; "1-4" are weak
• Lacks a good projectile
• Bad grab range
• If Judgment is "1" Mr. Game & Watch will do damage to himself
