Story
One day, Wario
is watching TV. He sees a report about a great video game. He has a great
idea to make money. Well, it seems his plan worked, because it is THAT
good. He then has the idea of getting his friends to join the fun. He may
have stopped his platforming, but later in the game you'll see he hasn't
changed a bit.
Gameplay
There are 204
microgames. Each game is five seconds, making you complete one task, which
is shown at the beginning of the game, such as Avoid!, Praise!, or Jump!
When playing basic games, you have four lives. If you win a game, you move
on, but if you fail, you lose a life and still move on. To make this harder,
you never know which game will come next, so you must figure out what game
it is, and beat it. After a set of games, you play a boss game. Boss games
have no time limit, and are basic minigames you might find in Mario Party.
During basic
games, speed ups and level ups occur to keep you moving. Speed ups makes
the games faster, and level ups make the games harder. There are a max
of two level ups, but speed ups can occur many times, making games go to
super speeds. This helps maintain the difficult, although some hard core
gamers will still feel this too easy. Also, one might get bored after unlocking
everything.
Genres
Each character
has 24 microgames and one boss game. The only exception is Intro, which
has 12 games. Strange, smart, and still strange genres. I won't tell you
too much, but the genres are interesting.
Retro Games
One of the genres
includes small versions of classic NES titles, including ome that didn't
make it to America. Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Metroid, and F-Zero
are some examples.
More Games
While playing
Wario Ware, you'll uncover regular minigames, some multiplayer. Paper plane
races and skateboarding are some, but the best are probably full versions
of Dr. Mario and Sheriff.
Graphics
The graphics
are as good as GBA games go. Most graphics are in the form of cartoony-looking
games, but some games, such as the R.O.B. game, show a great picture of
that robot.
Audio and Video
As with graphics,
video is as good as the GBA gets. Small movies are shown before and after
games. They are usually shown in slideshows. Audio is made perfect. Each
song fits the game perfectly, and when it speeds up, tempo speeds up perfectly.
After Beating
After unlocking
everything, you may think the game will be boring, right? WRONG! You can
play every genre and microgame for the best high score. Also, this can
become just like Tetris, where you can pick it up and play it in several
small doses.
