Mr. Game & Watch is a character who was created for Super Smash Bros. Melee. He is a living homage to Nintendo's Game & Watch games and is specifically designed to resemble the monochromatic sprites of the early Game & Watch titles (although graphics did improve as the Game & Watch series continued).

Mr. Game & Watch first appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee as an unlockable fighter (the last one to be unlocked) who speaks in only beeps and whistles (to represent the limited sound in early Game & Watch games) and moves in a stilted, frame-by-frame movement. Mr. Game & Watch returned as an unlockable fighter in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Outside the Smash Bros. series, Mr. Game & Watch also made a small appearance in Game & Watch Gallery 4, where he hosted the Present Mode alongside Mario and was perfectly capable of speech.

According to the official Super Smash Bros. Brawl website, Mr. Game & Watch has no concept of good and evil.
