Game & Watch Gallery is a game developed by Nintendo and released in 1997 for the Game Boy. It is the second game in the Game & Watch Gallery series, after Game Boy Gallery. It is known as Game Boy Gallery in Japan, and as Game Boy Gallery 2 in Australia. This game is the only game in the Game & Watch Gallery series to have its own soundtrack. The soundtrack also included updated versions of the music featured in the game.

Game & Watch Gallery features the following four games:

• Manhole: Mario, Toad and Donkey Kong Jr. are continuously walking across a platform. Players control Yoshi and must maneuver him in order to hold a manhole up to various gaps in the platform so that the characters do not fall. It was later included in Game & Watch Gallery 4.
• Oil Panic: Mario must catch leaking oil with a bucket, then dump it out the window to Yoshi before it overflows.
• Octopus: Mario dives for treasure to give to Peach but must avoid an octopus’ moving tentacles. It was later included in Game & Watch Gallery 4.
• Fire: Peach’s castle is burning and Toad, Yoshi and Donkey Kong Jr. are continuously leaping out to escape. Players control Mario and Luigi, who hold a tarp and must bounce their friends to safety. It was later included in Game & Watch Gallery 3 and 4.

There are some slight differences between the classic and modern versions and in the former the games are composed of simple pixel graphics rather than detailed sprites. When played on a Super Game Boy or Game Boy Color, it receives a limited color upgrade. For every 200 points players accrue in each game, they earn ‘stars’ which can be used to unlock entries in an in-game gallery displaying animations of other Game & Watch titles; up to five stars can be earned in each mode and difficulty of each game, for a total of 80 stars.
