There's nothing wrong with this game other than the fact its
extremely boring. The graphics are decent, the gameplay is poor. Graphics don't count for much in my book. Even though you get up to 15 games on 1 cartrige, it just isn't worth it, as most of these games have little or no interest.

Ripoff for the old folks who played it and are now rich

This is just a money ripper aimed at kids from the 80's who have played these. Some of them are now rich, feel nostalgic about their childhood, and must get this game. The ones don't have much money still buy it by only eating once a day for about a week.

I liked it.........For a while

I will admit that I enjoyed this game for around a week or so. The gameplay was repititous, and took alot more time than I would take to finish the levels. I still play it on and off, although I paid $40 for the dang thing(wish I would have checked amazon.com before making that splurge)

great game to start with

I bought this game mostly because I wanted to use it to get the hang of the Game Boy Advance SP's controls. Plus, as someone who's never really played video games before, I figured I needed to start somewhere, so I wanted something that wouldn't be too hard. The games are interesting and fun, although some games (like the "boxing" game) seem to be a little too easy. Still, the nice thing is that this cartridge is helping me get used to get used to the Game Boy Advance SP, and that's very spiffy. :) :)

wahahahaha~

ok....so it's basically an ancient game that people used to play when there weren't gbas. instead, theses games were on a watch. it's very addicting but i'd rather play yoshi's island than this old old old~~ antique.

Not very good

The games are either really hard, hard to figure out, or really stupid. It's not a very good game.

I must admit that at first I gave this game some tough criticism.
I mentioned that this game had limited selection and repeats(OLD) titles meaning those already released on the previous three volumes.
Well at first it does. You get Fire (old),Donkey Kong Jr. (old)Boxing (new),Rainshower (new,)Donkey Kong 3 (new),and Mario's Cement Factory (new). Then you have to earn points to gain stars to open up hidden games like Chef (old),Mario Bros (old),Donkey Kong (old),Octopus (old) and Fire Attack (new). Well after playing for days and hours gaining 160 stars I've discovered that you can also play the following games in classic mode only.
Manhole,Tropical Fish,Marios Bombs Away,Parachute,Bombsweeper, Climber,Safebuster,Life-Boat, and Zelda.
If you consider the fact that the first 12 games can be played in classic and modern mode thats 24 games plus the 9 classic mode games (33). It works out to be about 90 cents per game.

Here's an overview of what you have to do to unlock games.

As you gain more Stars, you can unlock Chef, Mario Bros., Donkey Kong, Octopus, and Fire Attack (in that order) for classic and modern game play.

Gallery Corner Museum:
60 Stars are needed to unlock the nine titles for display only (not actual game play). They are, in order of appearance: Manhole, Tropical Fish, Mario's Bombs Away, Parachute, Bombsweeper, Climber, Safebuster, Lifeboat, Zelda.

Star features:
The more stars you gain, the more features you will unlock. Note: Museum games are classic play only. You do not earn any Stars for the games in the museum.

5: Chef
10: Manhole (View only)
15: Tropical Fish (View)
20: Mario Bros.
25: Mario's Bombs Away (View)
30: Parachute (View)
35: Donkey Kong
40: Bombsweeper (View)
45: Climber (View)
50: Octopus
55: Lifeboat (View)
60: Zelda (View)
65: Fire Attack
70: G&W History (Gallery Corner Feature)
80: Manhole (Classic Play)

90: Tropical Fish (Play)
100: Mario's Bombs Away (Play)
110: Parachute (Play)
120: Bombsweeper (Play)
130: Climber (Play)
140: Safebuster (Play)
150: Lifeboat (Play)
160: Zelda (Play)

I gave this game 4 stars instead of 5 only because it takes hard work and patience to play a game for so long. But for Nostalgic Gamers from the 1980's I guess it's well worth the effort.

You can wake up now :-)

Repeats? WHO CARES!...

I currently own all three game and watch games. I enjoyed playing the classic games that our generation (those born around 1986,87,88,or 89) never played or heard of before. All three game and watch games for the game boy and game boy color were great,except ball, which was not sooo great. Anyhow, when i first heard about Game and Watch gallery 4 coming out for the game boy advance, i got excited and i wondered what new games would be in it. When i read one of the reviews that were written for this game, and saw that it was mostly repeats, i was shocked and i decided not to buy it. I mean at that point, what's the use of spending [$$] on a game that has games from Game and watch gallery 1,2 and 3. Just a few days back, i read the new reviews written for this game and it turned out i was mistaken. there are a total of 20 games in game and watch gallery 4. 12 new never before played games, and 8 old games from the previous three game and watch games. well its up to ya peoples to figure out what they are, dont wana spoil the surprise, so i aint gonna go in depth. I thought about it, and decided i should buy it. i mean more than half the game is new, so why shouldn't i buy it. so anyway, i saw some pictures of the game, and the graphics were awesome. i haven't played the game yet, so i expect one of you peoples to write about how the controls and sound were. Well, that's all i've got to say. i'll write more about this game when i get it and play it. then i will give ya peoples my final opinion. until then smell ya lata!!!!

Great variety of games

Ok, it's true this is all based on old material, you can read "basic" material. But it doesn't mean it's not good. As the GBA is portable, those games fit perfectly to be played anywhere and no matter how long you can play. If, as me, it's your first Game & Watch Gallery title and you have money, go ahead. If not, just keep playing on your olds titles for there is some games on GWG 4 you can find on GWG 1-2-3.
