Game Boy Gallery 3 (Japan) (GBC)

Game Boy Gallery 3 (Japan), known as Game & Watch Gallery 3 in the West, is a compilation of classic Game & Watch handheld games reimagined for the Game Boy Color. Players can experience both "Classic" versions, which faithfully reproduce the original graphics and gameplay, and "Modern" versions, featuring colorful graphics, lively sound effects, and the beloved characters from Nintendo's Mario universe.

Each game within Game Boy Gallery 3 offers simple yet addictive gameplay, focusing on reflexes, timing, and precision. For instance, in "Egg," players control Mario catching eggs dropped by chickens to prevent them from breaking. In "Greenhouse," you need to guide Mario to eliminate insects in a greenhouse. "Turtle Bridge" requires players to cross a turtle bridge by jumping at the right moment, while "Donkey Kong Jr." focuses on collecting keys to rescue Donkey Kong.

The primary goal in each game is to achieve the highest possible score. As players reach certain score thresholds, they can unlock additional Game & Watch games or view rewards in a gallery. The controls for these mini-games are typically very simple, using only a few buttons, making them easy to pick up but challenging to master. The Modern versions often introduce unexpected elements or slight variations compared to the originals to enhance fun and challenge.
