The '''Gallery Corner''' is a location in the [[Game & Watch Gallery (series)|''Game & Watch Gallery'' series]] that houses the [[Message Board|Note Board]], the [[Music Room]], the [[Museum]], the Gift section, Secrets (''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'' only), and [[Game & Watch|G&W]] History (''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]'' only).

==History==
===''Game & Watch Gallery 2''===
[[File:G&WG2 Gallery Corner.png|thumb|left|''Game & Watch Gallery 2''{{'}}s Gallery Corner]]
The Gallery Corner first appears in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]'', where the Gallery Corner has four sections: the Note Board (initially available), the Music Room (five stars required), the Museum (ten stars required), and the Gift section (permanently available after the player collects 100 stars). With 55 stars, the Music Room can be upgraded.

===''Game & Watch Gallery 3''===
[[File:Game & Watch Gallery 3 Gallery Corner.png|thumb|''Game & Watch Gallery 3''{{'}}s Gallery Corner]]
The Gallery Corner reappears in ''Game & Watch Gallery 3'', where the Gallery Corner holds the four sections used in ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'' as well as Secrets 1 (15 stars required) and Secrets 2 (60 stars required). In Secrets 1, a sample of the reversed ''[[Fire (Game & Watch)|Fire]]'' is shown. In Secrets 2, the reversed ''Fire'' becomes playable.

===''Game & Watch Gallery 4''===
The Gallery Corner reappears in ''Game & Watch Gallery 4'', where the Gallery Corner holds once again the four sections used in ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'' as well as G&W History (70 stars required), a timeline about the original release date of every Game & Watch title released.

====''Game & Watch Gallery 2''====
In this game, the Gift section controls when ''[[Ball]]'' (both versions and all four character variants) is unlocked. Going through here is required to unlock said game, and it instantly redirects to ''Ball'' after permanently unlocked.

====''Game & Watch Gallery 3''====
In this game, the Gift section is now hosted by [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] in the daytime (with a wall as a background). They show the player the secondary games that have been unlocked. Peach shows some things when presenting the secondary games, such as a [[Game Boy Color]], a flag (when presenting ''Flagman''), a [[hammer]] (when presenting ''Judge''), a star (after the player collects 30 stars), a lion plush (when presenting ''Lion''), a block (when presenting ''Spitball Sparky''), and a [[Donkey Kong]] plush (when presenting ''[[Donkey Kong II]]''). A pedestal also shows the secondary games' handhelds. Like in ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'', going through here is required to unlock the secondary games.

Here is a complete list of Peach's lines:
*When unlocking ''Flagman'': "Have you played all games yet? There are more classic Game & Watch titles. For starters, I'll give you ''Flagman''. Game A and Game B are different. Remember which button shows which number."
*When unlocking ''Judge'': "Are you getting used to playing? For your efforts, I'll give you ''Judge''. Hit your opponent if it's a higher number. You can link with a friend to battle."
*When unlocking ''Lion'': "Seems like you're getting lots of stars. For more fun, I'll give you ''Lion''. Use two men to push lions into the cage."
*When unlocking ''Spitball Sparky'': "Thank you for playing so much! Want more? Then take ''Spitball Sparky''. Delete all blocks to go to the next stage. Guess how many stages there are."
*When unlocking ''Donkey Kong II'': "You've come a long way to get up here! The last gift is multi-screen ''Donkey Kong II''. The basic rules are similar to those of ''DK Jr.''"
*Before unlocking credits: "You can collect more stars to open more events."
*After unlocking staff credits: "Again, here's the impressive game finale. To see the credits screen, press A."
*After unlocking both credits: "Again, here's the impressive game finale. To see the credits screen, press A. Press down and A to see character credits."

====''Game & Watch Gallery 4''====
In this game, the Gift section is now called Present, taking place indoors (with some gift boxes, toys, and plants as a background), and it is hosted by Mario and [[Mr. Game & Watch]]. They show the player the secondary and tertiary games unlocked. Before the handheld is shown, a [[? Block]] falls from above and then morphs into the corresponding secondary or tertiary game's handheld. Unlike in ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'' and ''Game & Watch Gallery 3'', going through here is no longer required to unlock the secondary and tertiary games. After unlocking every secondary/tertiary game, the player will be redirected here, and after every secondary/tertiary game is presented, the player will be redirected to the Game Select screen (for secondary games) or the Museum (for tertiary games).

Here is a complete list of Mario's and Mr. Game & Watch's lines:
*When presenting ''[[Chef]]'':
'''Mario:''' Have you played all of the games yet?

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' There are still more Game & Watch titles.

'''Mario:''' For starters, I'll give you ''Chef''.

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Catch the food and cook it, but don't let it hit the floor!

'''Mario:''' Do you think Peach is a better chef than I am?

*When presenting ''[[Mario Bros. (Game & Watch)|Mario Bros.]]'':
'''Mario:''' Are you getting the hang of G&W games? Why don't you try ''Mario Bros.''?

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Move your characters up and down the ladders, but make sure none&mdash;

'''Mario:''' Of the packages fall off!

*When presenting ''[[Donkey Kong (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong]]'':
'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' You must be getting pretty good at some of these by now!

'''Mario:''' Try to reach the platform DK is standing on!

'''Mario:''' This is the last ??? panel!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Now you can play ''Fire Attack''!

'''Mario:''' This game sounds similar to ''Fire'', but it's not!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' It's completely different!

'''Mario:''' Try to take on enemies coming from all four directions!

*When presenting ''[[Manhole (Game & Watch)|Manhole]]'':
'''Mario:''' Take a look at the Museum!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' All G&Ws are out, now you can play ''Manhole'' instead of&mdash;

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Enter from the Museum screen and play away!

'''Mario:''' You got it! If you don't catch the flying fish,&mdash;

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' That darned cat's gonna eat them!

*When presenting ''[[Mario's Bombs Away]]'':
'''Mario:''' Now you can play ''Mario's Bombs Away''!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' This rare G&W features a full-color main character!

'''Mario:''' Hand off those bombs and avoid that fire!

*When presenting ''[[Parachute (Game & Watch)|Parachute]]'':
'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Now you can play ''Parachute''!

'''Mario:''' Save the parachutists from falling in the shark-infested waters!

*When presenting ''Bomb Sweeper'':
'''Mario:''' Here's ''Bomb Sweeper'', a seriously smoking puzzle game!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' This G&W only uses the +Control Pad, so you can even play it&mdash;

'''Mario:''' With one hand tied behind your back!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' But can you solve all those puzzles so easily?

*When presenting ''Climber'':
'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' You just got ''Climber'', where you've got to&mdash;

'''Mario:''' Climb as high as you can!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' ''Climber'' only has one play mode.

'''Mario:''' Look for footholds, and go for the summit!

*When presenting ''Safe Buster'':
'''Mario:''' Next is the multiscreen classic, ''Safe Buster''!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' If you don't catch and dispose of the bombs dropped by the criminal,&mdash;

'''Mario:''' The safe will blow up, and the loot will be stolen!

*When presenting ''Life Boat'':
'''Mario:''' You unlocked ''Life Boat'', a horizontal multiscreen game!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Only four people fit in your lifeboat, so be careful!

*Before unlocking credits:
'''Mario:''' Lots of things happen when you collect more stars!

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' You get one star for every 200 points.

'''Mario:''' So keep practicing and playing those games!

'''Mario:''' If you want to see the cast of our games,&mdash;

'''Mr. Game & Watch:''' Just press down on the +Control Pad when you press the A Button.

=== Secrets ===
{{quote|This is ''Fire'', introduced in ''Game & Watch Gallery 1''. Don't you think something is wrong with it? The truth is, this ''Fire'' is reversed left to right. This version was planned to be released as is. The LCD designer happened to make it incorrectly. Nevertheless, the game was such as playable. It was released as it was. So far, it seems OK. This ''Fire'' is now hidden at Gallery Corner. Why don't you collect enough stars to play it. Well, that is all I wanted to say. See you around!|Mario|Game & Watch Gallery 3}}
Appearing only in ''Game & Watch Gallery 3'', the Secrets section has two parts: In the first one, Mario presents the reversed ''Fire'' while an animation of said game plays. In the second one, the player can choose to play the reversed ''Fire'' or not. The reversed ''Fire'' has some features and differences:
*Pausing is not possible; pressing {{button|gbc|start}} redirects the player to the Gallery Corner.
*After the player gets a Game Over, the game instantly stops. Reentering the Secrets 2 section is required to play again.
*The game behaves similarly to its Wide Screen version, but its appearance is from its Silver version.
*The ambulance's lamp lights up when an evacuee is saved (does not give any extra [[point]]s).
*Its score font was previously used in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery]]''.

=== G&W History ===

Some curiosities and errors are:
*''Crab Grab'' is misspelled as '''''Crab Crab'''''.
*''[[Mario the Juggler]]''{{'}}s release date says "October 1982," but the real release date of that game is October '''1991'''.
*The [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] appears in this list because it was released during the Game & Watch era.
