Description
DH-10: MAILMARE | Widescreen“Oh no! Derpy’s mailbag is torn, and she’s unknowingly dropping heavy packages all over the town. And main street is full of ponies – in harm’s way! Luckily, Spike happens to be on the scene, with a sturdy basket to catch the raining parcels and protect innocent ponies from cranial catastrophe.Game A is an easier mode, with more predictable package paths. Game B is harder, faster, and packages can rebound off of walls to confound and surprise you! Let a package hit a pony or crash into the Antique Shop, and you will accrue a MISS! After three MISSES, it’s GAME OVER!”
another mockup of a pony-themed Game & Watch (Pone & Watch? Game & Pony?). I… spent a LOT more time on this one, obviously.
this is also my first-ever time animating something. i wanted to do more with it but it was taking a long time as it was, so I tried to keep it short and simple, as if it was only a demo mode. enough to get the gist of gameplay across, at least.
It would be quite difficult to play indeed, but perhaps it might only happen in game B as a extra challenge.
I’d like glimglam’s approval to make a virtually version of this game and add it to my game page.
The way the boxes fall diagonally might make it hard to play, compared to the G&W games where obhects you have to catch usually fall in a straight line.
I actually have those, and the Gameboy games are actually how I knew about G&W, and such. I’m too young to of actually owned one back in the ’80s.
Interestingly, the G&W game “Egg” was a Mickey Mouse licensed game originally, but they replaced him with a generic cartoon wolf later.

Good thing the Game & Watch Gallery series on Gameboy exists.
I had a couple, but like a kid I didn’t take very good care of them, so they’ve probably been in a landfill for a couple of decades. I can’t remember their names, but one was a spaceship game, and another was a Frogger clone, I think. It’s been 30 years, so that’s all I can remember. ;)
I like the li’l alarm bell, that’s another nice G&W reference.

Did you actually have any G&W games back then?
I want one, but they’re quite pricey on Ebay. I wish Nintendo would rerelease them, even the modern playable keychain ones. (Though, they have a more Gameboy shape to them, and the screens are smaller, so they aren’t very accurate to the originals.)
Despite being too young to ever gotten a G&W game, I loved the Gameboy, DSiWare, and “Nintendo Mini Classic” keychain remakes. (I was probably one of the few whom understood whom Mr. G&W in SSB was from.)
I also got one of those “Nintendo Mini Classic” keychains of the old G&W version of “Super Mario Bros.” (While not a perfect remake of the NES game, it’s still good for G&W standards, and I like the Bowser alarm clock function it has. I managed to get over 1,000 points in it once. Tragically, I don’t know where it is now…)
I wish Nintendo & TOSE would make a “Game & Watch Gallery 5.” I’m baffled the multi-screen G&W games have never been ported to DS, DSiWare, or the 3DS Eshop, (except in 2 limited edition DS “Game & Watch Collection” games, only available to Club Nintendo members years ago) as their two screens would be perfect for remaking them.
