Pros: Four Games in one, but like, these "games" are small highscore based minigame-type of games, Game & Watch games, they're basic, but strangely addictive. Fire, Manhole, Oil Panic, and Octopus, each of which are all among the best of the Game & Watch line, so they chose a good four to include, and in addition to including the base G&W games, each game has a modern version, that has more fluid motion, easier to read visuals, great background music, and often a new gameplay twist or gimmick to spice things up. And these, are the real stars of the show, they provide enough variety to keep you on your tippy toes during fast paced high scoring sessions, as you try to achieve all the star collectibles by getting over 1000 points in each game. It's a great time, and also, they star the cast of the Mario series! Always fun.

Cons: Once again, basic as all heck. May be too basic for some, but for those that like these types of games, you'll be entertained. Also, four games is nowhere near as much as the sequels in this franchise provided. But what is there is good.

What it means to me: Not only did this game introduce me to Game & Watches, it's the game that really fleshed out the Mario universe for me, like, seeing the cast of Mario characters taking on different tasks, interacting with one another, it felt like a world. And I really got into the Mario universe thanks to this game (and hey, DK Jr. is there! I love that guy!). I remember car trips sitting in the back of a station wagon, playing this game over and over again, trying to reach those high scores... Fond memories.
