Mario the Juggler is a 1991 Game & Watch game that plays similar to Ball. It is notable as being the last Game & Watch game to be released.
Story[edit]
One day Mario was pestered by the Mushroom Retainers to show off his juggling abilities. While he was doing so, a Hammer Brother and Lakitu showed up and decided to join in by helping Mario out.
Information[edit]
The game has Mario juggling a variety of objects, primarily a heart, star, and a bomb. In Game A, Mario juggles these items at increasing speeds. In Game B there is an extra heart. Lakitu and Hammer Brother will show up to give help by juggling the hearts independently. If Mario misses three catches, the game is over and the Mushroom Retainers will ridicule him for his failure.
The game features an alarm setting where a Koopa Troopa will come out and ring a bell. If in the middle of a game though, the Koopa will appear but not play the sound.
