'''Ball''' is an unlockable game from ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]''. The player starts out with the classic version, but in order to unlock the modern version, they would first have to obtain five stars on both easy and hard mode in the classic version.
'''Ball''' is the very first game<ref>[http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Mario_the_Juggler Nintendo Wiki] (Accessed on 7-20-08)</ref> of the [[Game & Watch]] series, and an unlockable game from ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]''. The goal is to juggle the balls as long as you can. If one ball breaks, it's [[Game Over]]. Game A has 2 balls, while Game B uses 3 balls to juggle with. This has, unlike the other Game & Watch games, one chance to play, before a Game Over.

'''Ball'''The isplayer anstarts unlockableout gamewith fromthe classic version (unlike most Game & Watch games in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]series''). The player starts out with the classic version, but inIn order to unlock the modern version, they would first have to obtain five stars on both easy and hard mode in the classic version. Easy mode seems to be like Game A, while Hard is Game B.
 
==Classic=Modern Version===
As [[Mr. Game & Watch]], juggle, juggle, and juggle some more. In easy mode, there are two balls. In hard mode, there are three. Mr. Game & Watch must move his hands to where the balls are falling. Unlike most classic games that give the player three mistakes, if the player messes up once and smashes one of the balls, the game will end.
Only unlocked after the classic version of Ball is conquered. The player can play as [[Mario]], [[Wario]], or [[Yoshi]]. The first versionmode has Yoshi juggling [[Yoshi Egg]]s. The Mario versionmode has the player juggling a [[Star]], a [[Super Mushroom]] and a [[Heart]]., actually just like ''[[Mario the Juggler]]'', besides the mushroom. These items had varying arcs of flight as opposed to the fixed patterns of the eggs. Wario's versionmode gives the player a Heart, Spiked Ball and [[Wanderin' Goom]] to juggle. The objects had varying arcs of flight and the Goom would occasionally fly off screen.
 
The three versionsmodes of Modern ModeVersion Ball all had [[Bob-omb]]s that sometimes fly down from the sky. If a bomb hit one of the paddles, it would cause a [[Game Over]] too. Every one hundred points, [[Coin]]s will rain down from the sky. Touching the coins with the paddles rewards the player with bonus points.

* This Game & Watch was later re-worked into the Mario-themed ''[[Mario the Juggler]]'', interestingly the last ever Game & Watch. (Ball was the very first.)<ref>[http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Mario_the_Juggler Nintendo Wiki] (Accessed on 7-20-08)</ref>
*This game can be played in Game Boy Camera with the player's face in the stead of [[Mr. Game & Watch]]'s
*A game indentically to Ball was published, too. It had the same goal, same LCD graphics, and almost same handheld machine. It's name was ''Toss Up'' and was a ''Time Out'' game, instead of ''Game & Watch''.
