*Conceptually, Mr. Game & Watch is the only 2D playable character in the ''Smash Bros.'' series. However, in the technical sense, he is composed of a 3D model just like all other characters; this model is flattened along one axis to provide the illusion he is 2D. This flattening effect is applied to other characters in 2D stages such as [[Flat Zone]] and [[Pac-Land]]. The 2D illusion is broken somewhat when Mr. Game & Watch becomes [[metal]], is a [[false character]], is covered in {{b|ink|status}}, or if the Z-axis glitch is performed on him. as his body is no longer featureless and appears to be rounded. This can also occur during certain cinematic [[Final Smash|Final Smashes]], such as [[Dede-Rush]], [[Triple Wolf]], or [[Supernova]]. | *Conceptually, Mr. Game & Watch is the only 2D playable character in the ''Smash Bros.'' series.

His [[amiibo]] is also 3D, though it more emulates his 2D appearance than using a fully 3D model. | ||

**Although the ''Game & Watch'' was first released in 1980, Mr. Game & Watch didn't conceptually exist until ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. This has led to some debate over whether or not Mr. Game & Watch should be considered the same entity as the playable characters from the original ''Game & Watch'' handhelds. | **Although the ''Game & Watch'' was first released in 1980, Mr. Game & Watch didn't conceptually exist until ''[[Super Smash Bros.
