'''''Game & Watch Gallery 2''''', known as '''''Game Boy Gallery 3''''' in Australia and '''''Game Boy Gallery 2''''' (ゲームボーイギャラリー2 ''Gēmu Bōi Gyararī 2'') in Japan, is a compilation game that was released for the [[Game Boy]] in 1997. Even though it is the sequel to ''[[Game & Watch Gallery]]'', it is actually the third game in the [[Game & Watch Gallery (series)|''Game & Watch Gallery'' series]]. The game includes six revisions of classic [[Game & Watch]] games, one of which is not playable from the beginning and must be unlocked. Like all the other ''Game & Watch Gallery'' games, the [[minigame]]s can be played in either Classic Mode or Modern Mode; the former is identical to the original release of the minigame, while the latter has been redone with characters of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] along with updated graphics, updated gameplay, and music. ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'' was rereleased as a [[Game Boy Color]] game in Europe and Australia, as well as North America, in 1998 but not in Japan. However, on September 9, 2020, an unreleased Japanese Game Boy Color version was leaked.

==Stars==
Like the previous game, ''Game & Watch Gallery 2'' features a system to unlock bonus features. As before, the player earns a star every time they score 200 [[point]]s in a mode of a minigame, being able to earn up to five stars in each mode. The more stars the player earns, the more things they unlock in the [[Gallery Corner]]. The player unlocks a very hard mode called Star Mode after they reach 1,000 points in a Modern game. The player can earn a total of 120 stars.

==Games==
*'''[[Parachute (Game & Watch)|Parachute]]''' – [[Mario]] must catch [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s, and [[Donkey Kong Jr.|Donkey Kong Jrs.]] in his rowboat as they float down with their parachutes.
*'''[[Helmet (Game & Watch)|Helmet]]''' – Mario or [[Wario]] must dodge various falling tools and collect [[coin]]s.
*'''[[Chef]]''' – [[Princess Peach|Peach]] must flip cooking items thrown into the air by the Mario Bros. with a pan and feed them to Yoshi. In Classic Mode, a chef needs to catch food items in his pan, or a mouse will grab them.
*'''[[Vermin]]''' – A Yoshi must protect six eggs from [[Fly Guy]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa|Para Troopa]]s, and [[Boo|Boo Buddies]]. In Classic Mode, the player must keep moles out of a garden.
*'''[[Donkey Kong (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong]]''' – A remake of the Game & Watch version, in which Peach substitutes for [[Pauline]].
*'''[[Ball]]''' (unlockable) – The player must control a Yoshi, Mario, Wario, or [[Bowser|King Koopa]] as they juggle various objects. In Classic Mode, the player needs to juggle balls as long as they can.

There's a lot to do, and with both faithful ports and remakes being included in the same package you're sure to be entertained for a while as you attempt to earn all the stars available. And after that, maybe you can go in for seconds with the super hard difficulties."''

|8/10
|align="left"|''"Overall, I am satisfied with Game & Watch Gallery 2. I grew up playing the original Game & Watches, and have several original Nintendo Game & Watch games still in my collection. For me, playing Game & Watch Gallery 2 was a trip down memory lane, but for a whole new generation of games, it represents a returning to the simplicity of past games. There's no need to sit for that extra five or ten minutes to finish a level, or to reach that difficult to find save point. Gamers can turn off their Game Boys when they want it, making this title ideal for short trips, or for people who simply want to be entertained and not feel like they are locked into the game for a certain period of time."''

==Art errors==
[[File:GnWG2 original box.jpg|thumb|The early North American box art]]
*An early print of the North American localization, released in extremely small quantities, used a different box art from that seen in later prints. In it, a ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''-style [[Baby Yoshi|Little Yoshi]] is shown playing ''[[Vermin]]'', and [[Princess Peach]] is smiling while playing ''[[Chef]]''. [[Donkey Kong]] also looks like his ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' artwork. The final illustration, however, depicts [[Yoshi]] in his ''[[Super Mario World]]'' appearance and Peach experiencing issues.
*Yoshi is shown as an [[Yoshi (species)|Orange Yoshi]] in the Game Boy Color version of ''Vermin'', presumably to make him visible within the handheld's display restrictions, even though the box and manual artworks and his sprite on the Game Select screen depict him with his proper green color. Additionally, the Yoshi in ''Ball'' is a Green Yoshi on the Super Game Boy and a Light Blue Yoshi on the Game Boy Color.
**Similarly, although the Yoshi seen in ''Parachute'' is an adult Green Yoshi, the manual art for that game shows a yellow Little Yoshi in Mario's boat instead.
**Also, the accompanying art for ''Chef'' depicts Toad being a waiter and having his mouth water as Peach is flipping eggs and fish from a frying pan, as well as another artwork depicting Toad with a slab of meat in front of him and obviously planning on eating it, even though Toad is absent from the game itself. Additionally, Peach is shown with a chef's hat, though in the game itself she wears [[Peach's Crown|her crown]].

*Depending on what Game Boy hardware the game is played on, it displays appropriate hardware for controls when the mode for each game is selected, except for the [[Game Boy Advance]] and [[Game Boy Player]], which display a [[Game Boy Color]] regardless.
*After the player views the staff credits once (after attaining 50 stars), they can access the credits again at any time by holding Down on {{button|gbc|Pad}} in the "View the Gallery" option and pressing {{button|gbc|A}} or {{button|gbc|start}}. The player can also view the cast credits again by inputting the same button sequence, except they need to press Up on {{button|gbc|Pad}}.
*In the Game Boy Color version, the pause/Game Over menu's colors vary depending on the game/version. The border can also be changed by pressing {{button|gbc|B}}. Each possible color pair is:
** ''Parachute'' &ndash; Blue and white for Modern and Classic versions
** ''Helmet'' &ndash; Black and orange (Area 1), grayish blue and white (Area 2), red and white (Area 3) in Modern version; orange and black in Classic version
** ''Chef'' &ndash; Orange and white for Modern version and dark blue and white for Classic version
** ''Vermin'' &ndash; Red and white for Modern version and green and black for Classic version
** ''Donkey Kong'' &ndash; Orange and gray (Area 1), red and green (Area 2), green and dark blue (Area 3) for Modern version; green and black for Classic version
** ''Ball'' &ndash; Dark blue and white ([[Yoshi]] variant), orange and black ([[Mario]] variant), orange and blue ([[Wario]] variant), blue and yellow ([[Bowser|King Koopa]] variant); orange and black for Classic version
*This was the first handheld game featuring ''Super Mario'' characters that had its North American manual printed in full color. The manuals for Nintendo-published games on the Game Boy prior to fall 1998 were printed using {{wp|RG color space|two-tone}} {{wp|spot color}} palettes, using black and red inks for all games released through 1995, and black with green, blue or purple used for the background and selected other elements from 1996 to 1998.
