Wario Ware Smooth Moves

Spikey · 11 Jan 2007 at 15:46

Hey there, just got this earlier today and I have to say it's an excellent game, they mini games are quality and if you were fan of the DS version then you'll love this. Some of the humour is excellent! I'm itching to the give the multiplayer a go tomorrow with some mates!

did you get it in store or through the mail ?

Vixen · 11 Jan 2007 at 16:01

Our copy turned up this morning, yay for stores we can't mention here

. I've not had a chance to play it yet though, as my boyfriend has taken over and claims he can't see a multiplayer option yet.

This is the game I bought my wii for!

If I didn't have to start shelling out £50 a week childcare I would be ordering this - even found it for £29 :/

I want it, the missus wants it, bank account says we can't have it

I had a quick blast at lunch. Seems like typical Wario madness but with the benefit of the Wii control, very exciting stuff!

It looks very vibrant and colourful, even through composite on my CRT.

That shop won't accept my card details for some reason

There was another at ~£31, with a coupon. Think it expired yesterday though. It does show that there are deals to be had on games (although I'll be preaching to the converted here, won't I

)

I'm in 2 minds about this one, I've not played the DS version but I've heard storming reviews from people about it.

Bearing in mind I find Wii Play to be naff (apart from billiards) is it just more of the same type of thing?

nintenjo · 11 Jan 2007 at 17:12

Whats the multiplayer like?? and does it have online? (as it was apparently the 1st online title for the wii)

I've had all before and the Gamecube one was deffinetly my fav for all the multiplayer and cool party modes.

not at all. The concept of warioware is that you get like 3 seconds to follow an instruction, then it is on to the next one. Some of the "games" are just stupid, but the appeal is that you only spend like 3 seconds on each one before moving on to the next. The games aren't meant to be good in their own right, although there's usually some old nintendo games in there

A TV advert just reminded me that this is coming out tomorrow. I think I'll go down and pick it up. The DS and Gamecube versions were brilliant

We've just played through all the multiplayer games, and they are weird. The first one is survival, so you're out if you miss one turn. Then it's a points one, where each player has a few turns, then gets tied up at the end. In two player, there are 5 ropes, and the player with the highest score gets 3, the other 2. Each player takes it in turn to cut a random rope above them, and there's no way to tell which rope is around which player. The one left at the end wins.
There are two where one player holds the controller and the other a nunchuck and both are doing stuff at the same time.

The game only works with one controller, which is a bit of a disappointment, as it gets annoying having to pass it back and forth, especially with only 2 players.

My sentiments exactly. A 2nd controller would be much better

Spikey · 11 Jan 2007 at 20:48

I got it via an online store, also the multiplayer has to be unlocked for those wondering where the option is!

richolmes72 · 12 Jan 2007 at 14:17

Arrived this morning - full price of £34.99 inc delivery, but I needed to order from a place that would send somewhere other than billing address.

The game is awesome, presentation is great and it's really funny. So weird too.

Obvious already that its not going to last long, but worth it while it lasts.

Been playing it for an hour or so and so far I dont like it. Traded raving rabbids for so got it for £14.99 but its not my cup of tea.

This game should be £20, no way on earth its worth more.
