'''''Parachute''''' is a [[Game & Watch]] system released on June 19, 1981 <ref>[http://www.intheattic.co.uk/parachute.htm ''Parachute'' info page on In The Attic, a website dedicated to classic videogames] Retrieved 13 November 2010</ref>; it later appeared in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]'', ''[[Game & Watch Gallery Advance]]'', ''[[Game & Watch Collection 2]]''. In this game, player controls a rowing boat, and has to catch smaller people parachuting out of a plane. If he doesn't catch one, a shark lurking below will catch the person, and the player gets a miss. In ''Game & Watch Collection 2'', there is also a game which combines this game with ''[[Octopus]]''.
 
In the Modern version, [[Mario]] controls the boat instead, trying to catch characters parachuting from a flying ship, including [[Toad (species)|Toads]], [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]], and even [[Donkey Kong Jr.|Donkey Kong Junior]]s. If a parachuting character falls into a cannon, it will be blasted back out. If a parachuting character falls into the water, a [[Boss Bass]] will attempt to eat it; eventually a [[Fishin' Lakitu]] will reel the fallen parachuter out of the water, and place him or her on dry land. Every 100 points, the cannon will shoot out several shots, each releasing three eggs, one that contains a Bob-omb (which causes a miss), one that contains a moon (for bonus points), and one that contains nothing. The number of shots goes up based on how many points the player has (100=1 shot, 200=2 shots, 300=3 shots, etc.)
