It's a great game! January 18, 2008
It's funny and cute, and just something you can't put down. They utilize the ds functions very well, and the replay value is there.
 The "funnest" game for the DS January 7, 2008
I haven't had so much fun playing a game on my DS. The creators have let their gaming imagination run wild. The games are short and hence ideal to play during breaks. Expect "Wario" humor if you are already familiar with the series. Great game for kids and adults alike!
 A good way to kill a few minutes. August 23, 2007
Don't let anything or anyone fool you; don't buy this game thinking you'll be getting a "full" game that you'll sit and play for years to come. If you've played WarioWare before elsewhere you already know this; the series revolves around minigames that take only a few seconds to complete, being fired at you rapidly to test your coodination and reactions. And while this has always been worked as a party/multiplayer game, it just isn't enough to keep going as a single player game.
In multiplayer mode, you and your friends can sit around and laugh as thigns get fast and furious, waiting for one of you to make a mistake and be the one eliminated. This is really a hoot. In one player mode, unfortunately, this thrill isn't even half as strong. The primary thrills in one player mode consist of beating the varous game sets, beating high scores, and unlocking minigames and extras. While not as frantic or fun as the multiplayer, this is still fun. The minigames are still varied and hectic and getting everything done is an engaging challenge.
Unfortunately, it's just not enough. A dedicated player will probably be able to unlock everything in this game playing casually in a week or two, and after that there isn't really much to do in one player mode other than keep one upping your high scores; you run out of minigames, you've beaten and unlocked everything, and the extra have provided their 30 seconds of enjoyment and novelty. From this point on, WW Touched is something you'll likely only take out once in a blue moon to spin through a few mini games while you have some time to kill, or to jam through a hectic multiplayer session.
End Verdict? Wario Ware Touched is a thrill-ride of fast hectic action that will keep you engaged... for a week or two. Don't expect more from it than that.
 Very boring ... July 7, 2007
I'm really not sure why people like this game. It's just full of these mini touch games that take a few seconds like hitting flies, pulling strings, popping balloons and the storyline takes such a long time, and it's not that interesting either. The mini games really aren't fun. Maybe if you're incrediblyyy bored, but with the wait of Wario going to places for the storyline, it just increases your boredom.
Scratch His Nose! Do Something! June 15, 2007
WarioWare will probably go down as one of the original classics of the Nintendo DS. It did seemingly well on the GBA, then went on to get a spin-off on the Wii as well.
The reason it'll go down as one of the classics is not because of how wonderful the game is, but because there aren't that many copies of the game available. It's more of a collector's item than anything.
Full of quirky little minigames that require you to do everything from pulling the string of a party popper to snipping the snot of the silhouette of a woman. Very interesting indeed.
I had a problem with the amount of time it took to get to each of these series of minigames when you start the game out. I tapped Wario in the beginning to get the game started, and it wasn't too bad. It tried my patience a bit to get to the minigames, because the storyline is absolutely horrible. But that was nothing compared to the next series of minigames (the girl's). It took so long to get past her stupid story and to the minigames. I found myself to be thoroughly irritated by the time I was playing the second series of minigames. Had the plot been a little thicker, maybe I would have enjoyed it more.
It's got lasting appeal, cause you can go back and try to master the minigames you've already played. In that sense, it's somewhat nice. Not the best game available, but a good title to own.
This is one of the few games I didn't have the luxury of retail available for. I had to buy it on Ebay after it was flushed out of the retail stores and a little harder to find. Wouldn't be surprised if its value went up monetarily as well. Keep an eye out for that. The notoriety of valuable Playstation 1 games got me to thinking that it could be a possibility for DS titles in the future, seeing as the DS has found wild popularity. Other titles I think may follow suit:
Lost In Blue (I have no idea why, just hard to find brand new)
Advance Wars: Dual Strike (Out of production, price going up on Ebay)
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow (Greatest Hits version released)
I may make a listmania for this category of DS games, as I watch the average price on Amazon and on Ebay and see if the value is going up.
