I checked the 'secret' that exists in the Mario watch of 'Game & Watch Super Mario Brothers' commemorating the 35th anniversary of Super Mario
As the name suggests, the handheld game machine '
Game & Watch Super Mario Brothers | Nintendo
https://www.nintendo.co.jp/hardware/gamewatch/index.html
When you press the 'TIME' button on the main unit ...
The display will show 'Mario Clock'. The Mario clock has a large time to minute in the center.
There is no second hand notation, but the icon that circles around the display is a substitute for the second hand.
The second hand icon seems to double as an event occurrence detector, and it seems to blink when a special event occurs.
35 secrets are hidden in Mario clocks in honor of Mario's 35th anniversary, and there are two types: 'events that occur by your own operation' and 'events that occur at time.
◆ Events that occur by your own operation
・ Drawing song
Press and hold the A button on the Mario clock screen to watch Mario's drawing songs. The state that I actually tried is as follows.

If you press the A and B buttons at the same time, the time display will glow gold.

・ Background change
If you press the 'TIME' button while the Mario clock is displayed, the background will switch. There are three types of background patterns, not only 'Super Mario Bros.' but also ' Super Mario USA '.
・ Appearance of Koopa Troopa & Patter
When you press the A or B button, either Koopa Troopa or Patter will appear.

◆ Events that occur at time, etc.
Except for the events that occur by your own operation, it mainly occurs according to the time. Special events occur at 00 and 30 minutes every hour, and at doublet times (such as 1:11).
・ 0:00
At 00:00, the event 'Yoshi appears and breaks the time block' occurs. The 0:00 and 12:00 events are even more special, with the Yoshi event and the event of being caught by the flag standing at the end of each side of Super Mario Bros. 1 & 2. In addition, at 0:00, there will be an effect that Princess Peach is waiting.

・ 30 minutes every hour from 0:00 to 12:00
Every 30 minutes from 0:00 to 12:00, an event occurs in which Mario enters the clay pipe and collects coins at the bonus stage.

・ 30 minutes every hour from 12:00 to 24:00
Even at the same 30 minutes every hour, Mario goes to the underwater surface from 12:00 to 24:00.

In addition to this, familiar Mario characters such as Blooper, Karon, and Cheep-Cheep may appear randomly at each time zone. Comical events come in at a reasonable frequency, so you won't get bored just looking at them. Befitting the 35th anniversary of Super Mario Bros., it was a must-have item for fans packed with small stories about various Mario games.
