'''The Great Gonzales''', commonly shortened as '''Gonz''' or '''TGG''', is an ''[[SSBU]]'' {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} player from New Jersey, and is considered to be one of the best players in New Jersey, as well as formerly one of the best ''[[Smash 4]]'' {{SSB4|Ness}} players in the United States. He is very well known for his performance in ''Smash 4'' at {{Trn|Royal Flush}}, where he placed 5th. The Great Gonzales is also known throughout the Tristate scene, with people commonly saying the phrase "On Gonz".


'''Marcus''', also known as '''The Great Gonzales''' and '''YoutubeMan''', is an ''[[Ultimate]]'' {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} player from [[New Jersey]], and was considered to be one of the best players in New Jersey. Marcus initially mained {{SSBU|Simon}} and {{SSBU|Richter}}. However, after the initial month of the game, he switched to {{SSBU|Palutena}}. He achieved large success on the local and regional level, but did not make a national breakout performance until {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 5}}. Marcus has wins over {{Sm|Tweek}}, {{Sm|Rivers}}, {{Sm|Wishes}}, {{Sm|LeoN}}, {{Sm|ScAtt}}, {{Sm|Suarez}}, {{Sm|Gackt}}, and {{Sm|Jakal}}, as well as numerous sets on the rest of Tristate's best players. He is currently ranked 7th on the [[New Jersey Ultimate Power Rankings]] and was formerly ranked 43rd on the [[Spring 2019 PGRU]].
The Great Gonzales was ranked 11th on the final [[New Jersey Smash 4 Power Rankings]], uncharacteristically low due to lack of motivation by the end of ''Smash 4''{{'}}s lifespan. He has taken sets off of players such as {{Sm|Shoyo James}}, {{Sm|Wishes}}, {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Mr E}}, {{Sm|Pugwest}}, {{Sm|Lima}}, {{Sm|WaDi}}, {{Sm|ScAtt}}, and {{Sm|Salem}}.

He has taken sets off of players such as Rivers, Wishes, {{Sm|Light|p=Connecticut}}, {{Sm|Mr. E}}, {{Sm|Lima}}, {{Sm|WaDi}}, ScAtt, and {{Sm|Salem}}.
With the advent of ''Ultimate'', Gonz initially mained {{SSBU|Simon}} and {{SSBU|Richter}}. However, after the initial month of the game he moved on to the higher tier character, {{SSBU|Palutena}}. He achieved large success on the local and regional level, but did not make a national breakout performance until {{Trn|Smash 'N' Splash 5}}. In ''Ultimate'', Gonz has wins over {{Sm|Tweek}}, Shoyo James, Wishes, {{Sm|LeoN}}, ScAtt, {{Sm|Suarez}}, {{Sm|Seth}}, {{Sm|Gackt}}, and {{Sm|Jakal}}, as well as numerous sets on the rest of tristate's best players.
