Game & Watch Table Top: Popeye
Description
Game & Watch Table Top: Popeye is the fourth and final game in the fifth series of Game & Watch games published by Nintendo, also known as the Table Top Series, also known as the Color Screen Table Top series, consisting of just 4 titles. Each of the four models Nintendo produced for this series was shaped like an coin-op arcade machine. Though not a handheld by name, due to its large size, it's considered a dedicated handheld by definition.
The Table Top version of Popeye has a bigger screen, enhanced color graphics and sound effects due to the color LCD (CLCD) model and larger housing. The player controls Popeye who has to fight off Bluto, who's trying to abduct Olive Oil. The ultimate goal is to punch Bluto off the side of the pier into the water. Hitting Bluto after a few successful times, he will retreat and eventually hit the water, but one must dodge his counterattacks, since this will send you back down the pier. On some occasions Olive Oil manages to temporarily untie her bonds and will send down a can of spinach to boost your strength. Defending and attacking moves are the only way to gain victory in this boxing match.
