Wario Ware: Mega Microgames

All that it was was a bunch of retard characters doing stupid things that somehow came into little 5 second games. For example, you see an intro movie of a girl leaving work. She gets on a motorcycle and drives away. Then for some strange reason the police start chasing her. What does she do? She has a freakin' monkey go on the back of the motorcycle and throw bananas at them. And then it gets into the game. What happens is if you win the stupid 5 second game then the police car runs over a banana peel and swerves out of control. So pretty much the story(there's no story it just has a bunch of retard characters show you their stupid games) is messed up. All so the games.

From what I've read from the reviews it's supposed to be laugh out loud stuff. It's not true, but if you are a little retard who thinks that a monkey throwing bananas at police cars is funny than go ahead and buy it.

Then the games. You'd think that with I think over 200 5 second games this game would be really diverse and stuff. Pretty much it's just is about 20 5 second games with different pictures. It's either rapid tapping, or get good timing. There are some different games however like dodge stuff or ok never mind.

Then they have some big games that you have to unlock. They are only worth about 5 minutes unless your the obsesive type who just has to keep beating their high score. An example of a big game is jump forever. They have you jumping a jump rope. Pretty much all that you do is press the A button in order to jump over the rope. NOTHING ELSE!!! All the other big games are like that too.

In short, this game is a commplete waste of your time.


great game for the casual gamer   April 11, 2004

I love this game! The mini-game format makes it easy to learn, so there is no learning curve, unlike games where you struggle to master the controls for different moves. And it is easy to play for a short time and then put down because of ready made stopping points. Some reviews said you can play through in an afternoon. That may be true for a serious gamer, but I personally have had this game for six months, have been playing with it on and off and still haven't beaten the last level. It's fun, it's easy, it's the game (along with Animal Crossing connectablity) that made my Gameboy Advance a worthwhile purchase.


Fun, but the replay value is not what you'd expect   March 15, 2004

This is a very unusual, and at first very addictive game. Over 200 microgames, each of which can (must) be played in under five seconds. Plenty of variety for those of us of the short-attention generation. With the wide variety of fun games, you would expect this to be playable over and over without losing any of its charms. Unfortunately, it does lose a lot with repeated play. The best part about a lot of the microgames is just figuring out what you're supposed to do. You're only given one-word instructions (i.e., "sniff!"), and you have to decide what that means. So once you've figured out the rules, a lot of the games become less fun. Which isn't to say that I wasn't hooked; I don't think I put this down for two weeks. But the first time through each level is the best, and it loses a bit as the game goes on. Still, it's a fun game, and well worth the price.

This games goes from Bizzare micro games to some classic nes games with about 5 second play time to complete. I wasn't sure what to think of this game at first, but after a couple of games was addicted. This game has great replay value and you can even unlock some cool old school games. Overall it is a definite buy.

This game is retarted because it is too short. If you can beat a game in under an hour, IT IS [not good]!!!
