Trailer

I've been longing for a new WarioWare for ages. Can't wait to ~~subject~~ treat The Lady to a playthrough.

Very happy to finally get a new Wario Ware! This is the first home console one since Smooth Moves right?

Yep! And the first properly multiplayer one since Mega Microgames on the GC.

Its up on the Eshop for preorder for £39.99. I'm really tempted, absolutely loved the previous games!

Weird, I was thinking about the original of this the other day. I always enjoyed it, but something about it made me feel sad. It may have been the music.

So was I, after looking at the PlayDate.

The beauty of WarioWare is in its simplicity, so from the trailer my slight concern would be are they making it too complex with moving characters, and switching them in and out?

In any case, looks good and looking forward to seeing more of it and how it works.

I'm assuming the different characters and their styles will be akin to how each character have always had a 'style' or 'gimmick' in previous games. Like one character would focus on rhythmic button presses or microgames that only used the D-pad in the first game, or different wiimote positions in Smooth moves, different stylus techniques in Touched, or different ways to rotate in Twisted, etc. It may be a little more complex in that you'll now need to account for where your character is on the screen now and that your actions are now limited based on where they are, but I'm sure they'll figure something out.

This is interesting!

Could it also have been the (purposefully) haphazard, low-rent cheese of the visual style too? Or you reckon mainly the music?

Interesting either way - I sometimes get these atypical reactions to certain games, too.

I think always having a character you are controlling who then interacts with all of the microgames will change how it feels to play though. It looks less immediate because there is an added layer of abstraction there. In smooth moves you would just directly knock the apples off the tree. In this you make your character knock apples off the tree. I think that could be a little restrictive and might lessen the feeling of variety too as all the microgames will now have a common element in the characters. I hope I'm proved wrong!

Good observation and good point - maybe a bigger change than it might at first seem. Let's see!

Kind of interested in the difference of effect either way, whether successful or not!

Ever fancied walking down your street whilst carrying a Wario bag and picking your nose?

The My Nintendo Store UK can make this dream become a reality if you pre-order the game with them.

Nope. This is a wait-for-a-sale purchase.
