    Being a child of the 80s I had a lot of the original Game & Watch Mario, Dk, Dk Jr, Snoopy, Mickey etc ( I so wish my mom never gave them away) so for me seeing Game & Watch make a comeback as far as nostalgia. I truly enjoyed them then and love them now.
    I’m glad Nintendo put my fave Game & Watch 3 on the Switch..I still have my cartridge. I think it will bring more attention to Game & Watch and some will grow to love it. I love Egg but the Yoshi’s Cookie in modern was my ultimate fave game to play.

    The Ds (at least here in spain) had a club nintendo game that had the original game and watch donkey kong, oil panic and the game where you killed bugs on 2 screens. It even had an alarm feature, but there were no remakes, extras or unlockables. Still, probably the best way to experience the original games.

    In case you're curious to know what the blocks do in the Oil Panic game in "Game & Watch Gallery", the ones on the right produce coins whenever you give Yoshi the oil while he's standing on the edge of the right, whereas the ones on the left create platforms of blocks that you have to form multiple times for Yoshi to climb up and he attacks Bowser with a fireball before eventually coming back to drop more oil afterwards.

    Great video, dude. It's cool to see someone as young as you take such a huge interest in obscure retro games. I played a ton of Game & Watch Gallery 1 & 2 on my 3DS back in the day, and Parachute was always one of my go-to arcade-like experiences.

  • @pflynn12

    11:20 There's a lot of info here: Right side blocks give you extra points and sometimes an extra life heart and as for Left side blocks you have to get 4 blocks in order to hit bowser with a fireball

    When playing these games, I realize that each little game has its own sense of timing. Some of it strict, some of it fast and loose.
    Of course, one of the big problems with the G&W Galleries was always its "Git Gud" progression. I use save states without guilt because of it.

    In 2002, I was in first grade and got Game & Watch Gallery 4 on my Game Boy Advance. Later on in the 2010s, I got the first 3 via the 3DS Virtual Console and loved those too. This series went so hard and it's good to see someone giving it the attention it absolutely deserves. I also was fascinated by retro gaming when I was a kid. I guess it's because while the SNES was old when I was little in the early 2000s.. it wasn't retro yet and many of its games got GBA ports and the GBA was capable of playing original GB games. I also went to swapmeets that had Famiclones with games like Contra and Super Mario Bros. on them (I've seen that even 20+ years later the swapmeets still do and kids now still wanna play the oldies but goodies on NES). When I used to go to the Boys & Girls Club, kids still traded Gen. 1 and 2 Pokemon games on Game Boy Colors (even when the DS was out). Virtual Console on Wii made the world of retro super accessible before I knew how to tinker with emulators. I didn't even know Tose made these games until seeing this! Thanks for making this video and shining a light on a retro series that deserves recognition.

    Game&Watch Gallery 3 + A Yellow Special Edition, Tommy Hilfiger Gameboy Color, was my first personal game and console, as a kid. Got it on christmas all those years ago. It was mind blowing for me. Played the hell out of it and loved unlocking stuff. For some reason, even with the internet later on in life, i had no clue about the earlier entries until the 3ds. Been super obsessed and im dying for a Switch collection of it all. And it’d be amazing if they made NEW games with modern graphics and concepts using all sorts of Nintendo characters. Almost like a Smash Bros. “Everyone is here,” mentality. Man these games are underrated.

    For Modern Helmet, there is a high risk/high reward system of a sort. If you keep collecting coins without going through the door, your character will start moving to a crawl making it harder to avoid the “wrath of Home Depot.”

I'm a simple man and these are the perfect combination of zen, reflexes, score chasing and time killing.

    2. Game And Watch Gallery 2: Again, Really Good Game Selection Bit Not As Good As Game And Watch Gallery 3.
    3. Game And Watch Gallery 4: The Reason Why I Put This Game Here Is Because Of The Fact That Half Of The Selection Of The Games And From The Previous 3 Other Games But We Got Mr Game And Watch In It As A Reference So Thats Cool.
    4. Game And Watch Gallery: The Game Selection Is Very Short And Basic And I Don’t Know How They Did Not Include Ball For It Being The First Game In The Series Without Game Boy Gallery.
    5. Game Boy Gallery: Better Game Selection Then Game And Watch Gallery But They Could Of Replaced The Generic As Heck Kids With Mario Characters And Called It A Day.

    11:17 I think Yoshi does it because it’s just your usual Bowser boss fight but it’s a game and watch styled game. Just give Yoshi 2 full buckets of oil 4 times and he’ll barf out a fire ball at Bowser causing the koopa king himself to fall off the castle.

    There's no reason to remake Climber because obviously it's just ice climber dumbed down to LCD game.
    In safe buster if you pour the bombs into the left side. the flames will make the bombs explode and a key will start going up and if you can keep that key going up and up and up eventually it'll reach the top and the cops will be called because somehow the key can fly out of the chimney and hit the phone and dile 911. The key will fall back down making it very challenging but the points you rack up are worth trying. Reminds me of oil panic.

    Why do you like FFVIIR when the story is awful and ruins the story of the original? Now if it truly is a sequel it might have potential but as a remake it’s bad. Also it didn’t sell on ps4 it met the expectations when rereleased on ps5.
