'''''Game & Watch Gallery 4''''' is the fourth in a series of compilations of the classic [[Game & Watch]] games made between 1980 and 1990. Like the previous incarnations in the series, the featured games have both Classic modes, which attempt to recreate the look of the original unit as faithfully as possible, and Modern modes, which feature all-new graphics, music, and, often, gameplay elements. It is the first, and likely only game in the series to be on [[Game Boy Advance]]. | '''''Game & Watch Gallery 4''''' is the fourth in a series of compilations of the classic [[Game & Watch]] games made between 1980 and 1990.

Somewhat controversial was the inclusion of "shadows" in the Classic mode. The places where unlit liquid-crystal units would be were filled in with a light gray to attempt to emulate the look of a Game & Watch unit. However, some thought that it was tacky to imitate what they saw as a defect in the original units. Also, many pointed out that several shadows were forgotten, such as [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong's]] mouth in ''Donkey Kong Jr''. In addition, several games in the Museum had no shadows at all, creating an inconsistency some found bothersome. Nevertheless, ''Game & Watch Gallery 4'' is still the most authentic game in the series. | ||
