Still Juggling After 45 Years

Today marks the 45th Anniversary of the Nintendo Game and Watch. What began with Mr Game and Watch juggling balls became a huge sensation in 1980. Since then, Ball has been synonymous with the Game and Watch handhelds. It made a cameo as one of the treasures in Pikmin 2, and it was re-released on a few occasions, with the most recent re-release being a Mario-themed version as part of the Super Mario Bros 35th Anniversary celebrations. Even more remarkable is that some people who know about the Game and Watch handhelds were not even born yet when Game and Watch hit the store shelves, and I was definitely one of them. Incredible, isn't it?

Six Fan Arts Entry 2

Author's Note: This is a sequel to my first #SixFanArts Challenge comic.

Characters in this #SixFanArts Challenge Entry: Gold Fall Guy (Fall Guys), Tobrac (World of Warcraft, specifically the WowCraft videos by CarbotAnimations), Ugandan Knuckles (Sonic the Hedgehog), Mr Hot Dog (BurgerTime), Mr Game and Watch (Creamed Spinach Color) (Game and Watch), Sukapon (Joy Mech Fight).

If a regular Fall Guy wasn't good enough, how about a Gold Fall Guy wearing a gold crown?

For those wondering who Tobrac is, he is the orc OC in the CarbotAnimations WowCraft YouTube videos. His name comes from the reversed name for Carbot.

Remember Ugandan Knuckles? He is basically Knuckles with accents reminiscent of the Ugandan film "Who Killed Captain Alex?" by Wakaliwood.

As the first and most basic of the three main enemies in BurgerTime, Mr Hot Dog needs no explanation.

In the Super Smash Bros series, one of Mr Game and Watch's recolors is reminiscent of the original Game Boy's screen, which was ridiculed by Sega in a Game Gear advertisement titled "Creamed Spinach Color".

For those wondering who Sukapon is, he is the main protagonist of the forgotten Famicom game Joy Mech Fight. His popularity, however, only began to skyrocket when he appeared as an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and long before that, Sukapon was the most requested miscellaneous Nintendo character for inclusion in Super Smash Bros Melee.

Mr Game and Watch meets Paper Mario, Prince Fluff and Parappa the Rapper

Behold! The quickest comic ever made by Brawl in the Family gets remastered in colour!

No Jaywalking!

Remember, jaywalking is against the law. You either get slapped with a fine, or become roadkill just like the frog from Frogger.

The blocker lemming is telling Mr Game and Watch not to cross the road because a frog had just been run over by an automobile, just like in Frogger. Looks like blocker lemmings would make the best traffic police officers when it comes to telling pedestrians not to cross any road known for high roadkill rates.

Video Game Television

Credits to Norwegian RuneScape YouTuber Will Miss It for the idea for this comic.

If only there were better television shows based on video games, then only we would stop taking our TV shows for granted, including TV shows based on video games.

Here are some good TV shows based on video games that do not exist but we wished they existed:

Breaking Bubsy

Based on: Breaking Bad

Bubsy struggles to survive in a society that totally dislikes him while everyone makes his life miserable.

Everybody Hates Bubsy

Based on: Everybody Hates Chris

Similar to Breaking Bubsy, but with people who dislike Bubsy out to get him dead.

Kusoge Kombat

Based on: The Mortal Kombat cartoon

Kusoge game characters such as Wynn from Mystery of Atlantis, Gonbe and Tago from Ikki, and Spelunker, fight to the bitter end against each other for their personal survival.

So You Think You Can Fight

Based on: So You Think You Can Dance

Basically a combat-themed version of So You Think You Can Dance. Contestants have to beat up various objects such as a sandbag.

The Kloffice

Based on: The Office

Let's face it. The Kloffice will be the closest thing Klonoa will ever have to having a white-collar job, and Isabelle from Animal Crossing could just be one of his co-workers.

Last Noob Standing

Based on: Last Man Standing

The weakest characters in video game history battle each other to the death. In this case, Dan Hibiki from Street Fighter emerged victorious with Bubsy and a RuneScape Noob laying dead on the floor. Enjoy your moment of victory while you can, Dan Hibiki. You will still be considered very low in the Street Fighter character rankings list.

Whose Ability Is It Anyway

Based on: Whose Line Is It Anyway

Whose Line Is It Anyway features multiple different games performed by the performers. One of the games performed by the performers is Foreign Film Dub. In video games, cutscenes are basically the equivalent of film, which is why Foreign Cutscene Dub is one of the games performed in Whose Ability Is It Anyway.

Lemmings Invasion

Based on: Rabbids Invasion

While Rabbids Invasion revolves around the Rabbids coming to our society, Lemmings Invasion revolves around the Lemmings coming to our society. At least the Lemmings will be better than the Rabbids, assuming the Lemmings do not self-destruct...

Mii Vs Food

Based on: Man Vs Food

A Mii wearing a chef hat arms himself with a kitchen knife to slice his way through various food-based enemies, including Mr Hot Dog, Mr Egg and Mr Pickle from BurgerTime.

The Browser Wars

This show is all about Internet web browsers fighting a long war against each other. The various browsers warring against each other include Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

Super Smash Bros Supercade Smackdown

Based on: Saturday Supercade

Remember Saturday Supercade? Well, imagine if Super Smash Bros had a TV series, it would aim to relive the glory days of Saturday Supercade. This is a show we would definitely watch.

Please be mindful that this comic was designed before Microsoft announced the end of support for Internet Explorer.

ANA X Nintendo

Who would have thought that All Nippon Airways had a Nintendo Game and Watch giveaway back in 1983? Especially when this particular advertisement predates the All Nippon Airways edition Nintendo 64, Game Boy Pocket and Game Boy Color.
