The Power of Knowledge
Have you ever pondered to yourself what Mr.Game&Watch represents in this complex and modern world that we live in? In this analysis of Mr.G&W, we will look at the specific move-set of Mr.G&W and find out the meaning of each of his moves and appearance. If you feel that you will not benefit from this analysis, then skip this post.
The multiple costumes of Mr.G&W-As we know, Mr. G&W comes in different colors. These different colors represent the many types of people that coexist in the same world. Mr.G&W as a whole represents knowledge, and knowledge will eventually erase racism and prejudice throughout the world.
N-air-The parachute represents that knowledge will save you from ignorance just as a parachute saves a person from falling at regular gravity. Basically, the more gravity that you have, then the more ignorance you behold. In this case, Mr.Game&Watch represents an individual who is completely free of ignorance, but at the same time, is mocked for both his appearance and his position in the ssbm tier chart list.
F-air-The book of knowledge. Self-explanatory
B-air-The turtle represents old age, which stands for wisdom, great knowledge, and experience. Perhaps you might be a handy turtle that advises the people for the general good.
D-air-The key of knowledge. The key is only obtainable if you realize that you are what you think. Once the key is obtained, then you can differentiate between the truth & illusion of whatever reality throws as you.
F-Smash-The burning pitchfork. The fire on the pitchfork represents the burning desire to gain knowledge.
Up-Smash-The submarine helmet represents the brain that is the deep sea of mystery. As the wearer of the helmet gradually surfaces towards the surface of the sea, the wearer gains knowledge and wisdom and is completely rid of confusion; therefore, he/she will finally understand the purpose of life itself.
Down-Smash-The double hammers. In the original Mr. Game&Watch games, both of the hammers were used by a figure similar to Mr.G&W himself to whack moles. So what can this possibly mean? The hammers represent epiphany and the figure represents knowledge. Once a person is whacked by the hammer after searching for the truth, he/she experiences a state of type of ecstasy since learning new things usually excites a person, whether good or bad. So basically, if one pops his/her own head from his/her own hole, then there is a high probability that they will realize something and gain knowledge.
F-tilt-The chair requires you to take a seat because knowledge requires a huge amount of patience.
D-tilt-The shaky floor board. Throughout life, we will encounter a huge amount of confusion, which the shaky floor board represents. Once we stop the shaking of the floor board, we will not longer be in confusion, and will actually realize that what seems to be true is really not completely true, leading us to come up with the theory that most facts that we are taught in life are doubtful.
U-tilt-The racer flag. It represents the race for knowledge that most people attempt to win. The number 1 that is on the flag stands for the common goal in everyone's mind: to be number one. However, certain people perceive themselves as being #1, until they realize half-way through the race that there will always be a person with a greater knowledge than them. A great example of this would be ourselves. We think we know everything, but what do we really know? And what don't we know?
Neutral-B-The bacon of knowledge. The bacon represents the knowledge that people regularly gain. People attempt to gain more and more knowledge, getting closer to the source of the bacon. But once they devote their whole lives gaining knowledge, they will eventually get burned by the frying pan which represents the point in a person's life when they start to question the validity of the knowledge that they gained. However, the event when the person gets burned by the pan turns into experience. And with experience comes wisdom.
Up-B-The trampoline symbolizes that all your dreams and aspirations will come true; you do not require wings to fly.
Down-B-The bucket of knowledge. The bucket collects knowledge, and as you continue to collect knowledge, you realize that it is your most powerful weapon.
Side-B-
Dash Attack-The big head of Mr.G&W. The head portrays that a person should not just use their body to fight, but also should use their big head to think.
The Taunt-The bell. It represents the beginning of the learning session just as a school rings its bell to begin classes full of knowledge.
I will add more later.
