Despite these strengths, Mr. Game and Watch possesses very large weaknesses. He is among the lightest characters in the game, which makes his horizontal and vertical endurance among the worst in the game. In addition, despite having disjoints, his overall range is merely average. This is worsened by many of his disjoints, like down tilt, up tilt, and forward smash possessing less range. This makes characters like Ike and Cloud easily able to keep G&W at arm's length. Also, while his new forward air possesses more damage and knockback, it disappears if it comes into contact with any other hitbox. This makes it unsuitable for approaching and forces G&W to approach with his back air constantly. | Despite these strengths, Mr. Game and Watch possesses very large weaknesses.

Mr. Game and Watch also possesses a laggy grab and lacks any useful throws outside of his down throw. None of his other throws lead into combos or possess KO power. Finally, G&W's rolls, techs, and spotdodges are slow, laggy, and very punishable. Combined with his low weight, they often too risky to use effectively. | Mr. Game and Watch also possesses a laggy grab and lacks any useful throws outside of his down throw.

All in all, Mr. Game and Watch is a very powerful glass cannon. He possesses extremely high damage output and powerful KO options while being extremely vulnerable himself due to his light weight and laggy defensive options. | All in all, Mr. Game and Watch is a very powerful glass cannon.
