Mr Game & Watch wandered home late that night, thinking a little.
"Hi, honey. How was your day?" Mrs Game & Watch beeped.
"Same old, same old. Beep beep to the left, beep beep to the right. Having two controls gets boring after a while…" Mr Game & Watch stated.
"Well, there is that new business opening up down a couple of blocks of memory. Want to go check it out?"
"You know, this is why I married you. You're such a peach."
Mr Game & Watch showed up at the new arcade business.
"You are Mr Game & Watch, of Game & Watch Galleries?" the gruff security guard asked.
"Yes, sir-beep!" he stated.
"You are looking to start a new life?"
"Yes, yes I am!"
"Well… we are, sadly, out of jobs for one to complete. Perhaps later?" the guard claimed. However, he spotted an ape throwing three figures out of his home, and hung up a 'Help Wanted' sign.
"I think we just found our home!" Mr Game & Watch said, and he and his wife rushed to join in.
When Mr Game & Watch spawned in the stage, he noticed that he could see an entire business meeting on the table. He was intimidated beyond comprehension at the sight of so many gamers, but he quickly changed his mind upon seeing his new attire. He was garbed in a red hat, a blue shirt and red overalls.
"Hm... odd…" he stated. He looked around, and spotted Mrs Game & Watch captive on a higher girder of what appeared to be a construction site. "Oh no you don't!" he roared, and climbed up the construction site.
"As you can see, Jumpman makes his way up the girders by jumping over girders and climbing up ladders," the director stated. Mr Game & Watch noted his advice, and found himself losing less lives.
"Hm… good advice. But what exactly is this game?" Mr Game & Watch, or as he was now known, Jumpman, asked. He had never before heard of a plot in a game. The tales he had heard recounted in the Game & Watch Galleries had all had a hint of adventure, but none matched this brand new game! He climbed girders after girders, beating level after level. Eventually, the board meeting was wrapped up, and everyone could take a break.
"That was beep-tastic!" Jumpman said as he left Donkey Kong. Mrs Game & Watch, who found her name to be simply 'Lady', shrugged. She wasn't quite amused by being kidnapped by an overgrown monkey.
"DK feel you not like game…" Donkey Kong said, walking up behind the Game & Watches.
"No, your game was good. Just…" Mrs Game & Watch tailed off, not knowing how to politely say what was on her mind.
"Just… DK have no use for lone words."
"I don't know if I'm comfortable with being kidnapped."
"DK understand. DK accept if you want leave."
"No. I'm not leaving… Jumpman!"
"If that case, DK can arrange comfortable plan. DK good at that," he finished, leaving.
"I don't like him."
"You just met him. Of course you don't like him. If, in a couple of beeps, you still don't like him, we'll abandon Donkey Kong."
"Good point."
"You OK with 'Lady'?"
"No. Who would be?"
"Then I'll stick with 'Mrs Game & Watch' until the directors come up with a better name."
"Thank you. You are too kind."
Jumpman, who had been renamed to Mario following an incident with the rent in some warehouse, arrived home to his wife.
"How was your day?" the lovely Mrs Game & Watch asked.
"We have a new title coming out. Donkey Kong's son has volunteered his time to make a sequel to Donkey Kong. I've offered to take the place of villain, and good ol' DK decided to be the damsel-in-distress," Mario responded.
"What a relief. I'm sick of being kidnapped over and over again."
Yeah. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I have officially lost my mind.
...Oh, right. Plot has yet to happen. I assure you that this story will have a different feel, being a) not a sequel, and b) in a different layout. This b) line is actually a change to a more respected writing style. Please tell me if it doesn't suit me.
And yes, Mario is Mr. Game & Watch! I can't stop harping on about how stupid that sounds in hindsight! I chose it to make a Game & Watch story, of all things!
It's-a me, phineas81707!
