Game & Watch Gallery is a compilation of Game & Watch games. In Japan, the game is known as Game Boy Gallery and in Australia it is called Game Boy Gallery 2 (as it is technically a follow-up to the Europe-only Game Boy Gallery).
Gameplay
Game & Watch Gallery contains four different games: Octopus, Fire, Oil Panic, and Manhole. Sixteen other games can be seen in the Gallery Corner, but not played.
Each game can be played in one of two modes. Classic Mode is a recreation of the original game, while Modern Mode has updated graphics, new gameplay additions, and various Mario characters. In addition to the two modes, the game has three difficulty settings: Easy, Difficult, and Star Mode. Star Mode has to be unlocked and is only available in Modern Mode.
