Minigame Island (Feature)

Jul 20, 2007

From throwaway ideas tacked onto games that aren't much to begin with, to genuine labors of love - gifts from the developers to you - the world of the bonus minigame is wide, varied and rarely more than a couple of minutes long. Here're a bunch of our favorites. Mario vs. Luigi in New Super Mario Bros An insanely intense two-player battle that turns the classic Mario platforming action into a feat of endurance.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves' heightened gaming vignettes (News)

Mar 20, 2007

Frantic sets of microgames have been the standard of every entry in the WarioWare series, forcing gamers to asses and complete outlandish objectives at a frightening pace. While each title has its own "gimmick" with its microgames (e.g. Twisted!'s motion sensor), WarioWare Touched! and WarioWare: Smooth Moves have the responsibility of proving the newly-launched systems they debuted on. Working with these quick bursts of gameplay, these two games promote how the features of the DS and Wii can be taken advantage of, providing hundreds of examples in an enjoyable, playable format.

Warioware and others to sell for less.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves (Review)

Jan 16, 2007

The Wii is already bloated with party games, but there's a good chance the frenetic pace and schizophrenic style of WarioWare: Smooth Moves will topple them all. Using only the remote (called the Form Baton here), you'll engage in 200-plus ultra-fast minigames that range from clipping fingernails to balancing on a ball to whacking the thieving arm of a dodgy old man. Each lasts mere seconds, and then it's off to the next with barely any time to catch your breath. It's fast, it's fun and most ...

Wario Ware footage is for girls? (News)

Nov 16, 2006

As Nintendo never fails to inform us, Wii is a console aimed at hunting down non-gamers. This Wario Ware: Smooth Moves video shows little of the game but plenty of the big N's mindset, featuring, as it does, a trio - nay, a gaggle - of young ladies coming to grips with Wii's controller. Much giggling results. Hit the Movies tab above and click on "Wario Ware: Smooth Moves - trailer - 11-16-06" to watch the demo. Sure, it's no different from Microsoft or Sony's achingly Zeitgeist-hunting promo ...

Friday 12 May 2006 Consisting of over 200 bite-sized minigames, there shouldn't be any surprise that it's WarioWare: Smooth Moves that really pushes the Wii remote's flexibility to the limit and we managed to get hands on with the mayhem.

E3 06: Wario Ware: Smooth Moves (Preview)

May 12, 2006

Ever since it first appeared on the GBA, the eclectic Wario Ware series has always made little sense. They're all collections of super-quick minigames that literally take seconds - so fast, in fact, they're called micro minigames. But now you've got the power of the Wii remote to contend with, and the 200 micro games have just become even more fabulously impossible. The demo of Wario Ware: Smooth Moves strung together a series of events, each more maniacal than the last. What instantly sets ...
