This is a list of Game & Watch
games released by Nintendo
, along with their format and date of release, if known. See lists of video games for related lists. Several of these games were collected and re-released as ports for the Game & Watch Gallery series

Game & Watch
series of handheld LCD games. It was first released for the silver Game & Watch on April 28, 1980 with the model number: AC-01.
In the game, the player tosses three balls up in the air. As the balls fall down, the player must catch and toss them up again, earning one point for each successful catch. Dropping a ball will end the game. The object of the game is to continuously catch the balls that fall and throw them back up again, like juggling
.
The game Ball was also featured in the 1994 Game Boy Gallery, the 1998 Game & Watch Gallery 2, and was released as a DSiWare game on July 15, 2009. For its 30th anniversary, Ball was reissued with model number RGW-001 and made available to Japanese (2009) and American (2011) members of the Club Nintendo
program. Ball is also referenced in Super Smash Bros. Melee
and Super Smash Bros. Brawl
, appearing as Mr. Game and Watch's throw.
Game A is a Black Jack game. On the upper screen is the dealer's hand and on the bottom screen is the player's hand. Four buttons are available: double down, bet x10/hit, bet x1/stand and enter. The player starts with a $500 bankroll and can bet up to $109 each hand. There are, however, two major flaws in this game. First, pair splitting is not allowed. Second, you have to lock your bet before shuffling is done, not corresponding to a real-world Black Jack game.
In Game B, the player starts with $500 as five numbers cycle in a random pattern on the bottom screen. Pressing the enter button causes the numbers to stop one at a time, rewarding $50 if all five stop on the same number, or deducting $25 if not.
The top screen is just "cosmetic", showing your "boss" sending you down the underground maze. You are "John Solver", who needs to defuse bombs set by "Jack". In order to reach the bomb you have to move inside a maze. You can move walls (if they are not blocked by other walls) to create a path for you to move. After defusing a certain number of bombs, the game changes a bit (only on "Game A" mode): the maze starts moving from left to right and you have to be able to find an exit back to the surface (top screen).
Differently from most Game & Watch games, your lost lives aren't "erased" when a player reaches 300 points.
, although it was released shortly before the NES title.
game released on September 8, 1981. Its product number is FP-24.
In this game, the player controls a chef flipping various pieces of food, including sausage and fish, into the air with a pan. The player must flip the food and keep it airborne. Failing to do so will cause a mouse to steal the food off the floor, and the player to use up one 'miss'. The player gets three chances to 'miss' the food, and after all three misses have been used, the game is over. A cat often pokes the left piece of food, which holds it in place for a small amount of time, making it harder for the player to guess when the piece will be flippable. The game speeds up as it progresses.
In Game A, the player must flip three items of food. In Game B, the player must flip four food items.
The game Chef is also unlockable in Personal Trainer Cooking for the DS after the player has cooked a certain number of meals. The game was re-released for Nintendo DSi in 2009.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mr. Game & Watch has a special move that came from this game.
. It is similar to Ice Climber
.
A boy with wisdom and courage known as the Climber, one day, sets out on a training trip to the Block Mountain where the Blockmen live to become warrior. On the way, he meets Lord Meiji who grants him a pair of special boots which will enable him to jump very high, an armor to break ceilings and a head band which will help him find a sword that can slash Dragalo the dragon with one stroke. No one knows how many of the obstacles will the Climber be able to overcome with the help of the mysterious bird, Hentori, and continue his quest.
The objective of the game is to control Climber by jumping through a tower of platforms and landing on them, and by avoiding monsters and blockmen. The goal is to either grab Hentori the bird or slash Dragalo the dragon. The other goal is to make the highest score possible.
There are two versions of Climber available: DR-106 (New Wide Screen series, 1988) and DR-802 (Crystal Screen series, 1986). Climber was also an unlockable Game & Watch game in Game & Watch Gallery 4.
There were four columns along which crabs come from the bottom of the screen reaching and settling at the top. Your objective would be to avoid being in front of the crab and start pushing the crabs from the bottom to avoid them mounting on the screen. Pushing and eliminating the crabs earned the points. On the other hand, you had three chances before 'Game Over' to be bitten by a crab. You could move your character along four directions (Up, Down, Left, Right).
There were two games A & B both having almost the similar objective but with slighter different speed. The Super Color was that each column was of different colored LCD. It was considered as one of the expensive games in 1984. The game was one of two Super Color games, the other being Spitball Sparky.
This console was the console that gave Nintendo the idea to make the Nintendo DS. Music composition for the game was done by Hirokazu Tanaka

The game gets quicker as it progresses.
In octopus, a game A and B is shown. If the player picks game A, the game moves lazier and is easier, but if the player picks game B, the octopus moves much quicker and there are more hazards.
Octopus was well received. The game is considered to be one of the most complex Game & Watch games ever created.
The game Octopus was re-released for the Gameboy in the game Game & Watch Gallery. It was also re-released for the Game & Watch Gallery 4, and for the Game & Watch Collection 2. The octopus from Octopus also makes an appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In the game, a jungle explorer is transferring baggage from one side of a river to the other using a line of five turtles as stepping stones. He starts on the home bank and jumps from turtle to turtle carrying the package. However he is unable to land on the far bank and must pass the package to his colleague. Once done so he can return to the home bank to fetch the next package.

It was released in the widescreen version (product number: TL-28).In the game, a jungle explorer is transferring baggage from one side of a river to the other using a line of five turtles as stepping stones. He starts on the home bank and jumps from turtle to turtle carrying the package. However he is unable to land on the far bank and must pass the package to his colleague. Once done so he can return to the home bank to fetch the next package.
The challenges he faces are
- The turtles are hungry and will dive to feed on the fish swimming below if they are in reach;
- Once he has left the home bank with a package he’s too heavy/the bank too slippery for him to jump back to the safety of the home bank whiles carrying the package;
- If he waits too long on the home bank with a package he will slip onto the first turtle;
- His colleague on the far bank is not always there to collect the package when he reaches the far bank, so he may have to wait for him to appear.
As the game progresses the number and speed of fish appearing increases, with the consequence that the turtles dive more frequently. At no point are all turtles diving.
Game A vs. Game B
- In Game A the middle turtle of the five in the ‘bridge’ does not have any fish swimming in reach, and so doesn’t dive, unless the explorer waits too long on his back, at which point fish start to appear and the turtle will dive.
- In Game B: all turtles will dive from the outset; His colleague is more distracted and appears less frequently.
Scoring
- Points are awarded relative to the time taken to deliver the parcel, ranging from 10 down to 2; it takes approximately 1 hour of game play to accrue 1000 points.
- The score board only has 3 digits, so once you exceed 999 it returns to 000.
Lives
- Lives are lost if the explorer lands on a turtle that has dived, and subsequently drowns.
- A life can be recovered at predetermined score levels: 200, 500.
- Lose all three lives and the game is over.
A turtle from this game is used as one Mr. Game & Watch's moves in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
