Wario Ware: Smooth Moves (Wii) > Reviews

Advantages: very fun and random
Disadvantages: won't appeal to those who like an actual storyline

Quite simply put, Wario Ware is a game full of entirely random and fast paced minigames. Really. I could stop the review right here if I wanted to, because that's pretty much the most accurate description of the game you will ever read. Of course, that would be an incredibly boring review, so I'll carry on. Wario Ware is an amusing and strange game which is hilariously fun to play (and perhaps even more fun to watch other people play). To ... Read review

Advantages: Laugh out loud funny, Great party game
Disadvantages: Very short Single Player, Multiplayer not unlocked untill Single Player completed

...after a Party Game, then Wario Ware Smooth Moves is where it's at! Smooth Moves is a collection of over 100 mad 5 second minigames. One minute you'll be catching a fish Animal Crossing style, the next you'll be sharpening a pencil. Then you might be doing the hula, swiflty follwed by placing a Grandma's teeth in her mouth! There is only one word to describe this game: Mad. In single player mode you'll be completing roughly 15 minigames and a ... Read review

Advantages: Wacky fun! Great to play with friends.
Disadvantages: Very , Very Short.

This game is very odd. It is a series of mini games that each last about 5 seconds. after 14 mini games a hard "boss stage" appears and if you pass it you unlock a new level. The levels are set out like a map, with a new location appearing every time you beat the previous one. There are a host of wacky characters (Most of whom will be recognised by anybody who has played the WarioWare series previously) The single player part of the game is ... Read review

Advantages: Great at a Party; Wacky and embarrasing!
Disadvantages: If you havn't played it before, you're done for

...the newest game in the Wario Ware series for Nintendo Wii, if you aren't familiar with the series, the games have always been about having fun at the cost of massive embarresment. Its a great principle in my oppinion, but some say its for kids. I bought Smooth Moves not knowing what to expect, like a few games on the Wii, Smooth Moves has had mixed reviews. Even I am not sure if I was impressed with it! ~~~What is Smooth Moves?~~~ Before ... Read review

Advantages: Addictive multiplayer, makes innovative use of the Wiimote
Disadvantages: Boring single player, needs more minigames, on occasions bad motion detection

Let's face it - this game was built for the Wii, and it is Nintendo's opportunity to show off the versatility of the Wiimote with this game. That's exactly what this game is - it makes use of the Wiimote in every conceivable way. If you are unfamiliar with the WarioWare games, the premise is very simple - a series of fifteen or so mini games blasted at you in quick succession. The mini games range from unlock this door to answer that telephone. ... Read review

Advantages: different, fun, random, enjoyable
Disadvantages: not a lot of depth

Firstly, if there was a box for random weirdness then this game would definitely score max points. That said the playability and enjoyment do benefit as a result of the general insanity of this product. At the outset of the game the instructions are to make sure the "form baton" (wiimote) is secure and also to ensure there is nothing close that you may break in your gesturing. What stayed with me however was the instruction to leave your inhibitions ... Read review

Advantages: exciting, fast, addictive and fun
Disadvantages: gets you really addictive

...addictive. At the start Wario is walking and spots a temple containing a Wii remote. You have to chose one of the residents from the map, and then a small introduction animation plays. the animations are fabulous and sometimes funny. The funky and wonderful characters is what gives the game its cartoon like atmosphere. The introduction scenes give the game a fun vibe. In the game you play about 200 mini-games you always perform a one-move action ... Read review

Advantages: Group playing is amazing
Disadvantages: Some moves can be unresponsive

...boss is in the wario level where you have to dance, this level continues after the boss stage to more rounds and dance boss stages.The multiplayer option doesnt need another wii remote, you just pass the one that your using tot he next player. The multiplayer games are simple and are just playing against eachother. If you want you can complete levels together in non multiplayer by just passing the remote to the next person for the next move. This ... Read review

Advantages: Great at getting a group involved with harmless random fun.
Disadvantages: Quite limited and easy to complete.

One of the most fun and yet randomist games I have ever played! It seems to be designed for kids but when playing with friends it can be very enjoyable. There are numerous screens where you are taught to use the wii remote in different positions to perform strange actions on screen. (such as plucking peoples nose hairs or pumping up baloons) You are encouraged to take on these actions which makes you look quite silly in front of your friends. I ... Read review

Advantages: Full use of Wii Remotes
Disadvantages: have to unlock games and Muliplayer

Wario Ware has always been known for small Micro games which last a few seconds but this version knocks Them all out. This version uses the Wii remote for all the games and sometimes it uses the Nunchuk. With This version you not just pressing A & B you're moving your controller around so it makes it fell like your more in the game. Wario Ware Smooth Moves is a set of 200 Micro Games which use the Full the Wii Remote to it Fullest Campitiabties. ... Read review

Advantages: Fun, Entertaining, Colourful, Good with Friends, Loads of different games
Disadvantages: Single player shelf life - limited. Addictive at first but not for long

I have now had this game for a good couple of weeks. The first night after I bought this game my boyfriend and I were up for a long time playing all the funny mini-games (apparently 200 different ones). It is defiantly a game which you would play with a get together of friends. It is very easy to pick up the remote and take part. It is suitable for everyone. The game is full of colour and has a cartoon nature which will be a big hit with kids. It ... Read review

Advantages: Great multi player, one player is long-lasting fun
Disadvantages: Some might find it a little TOO wacky...

This is already indispensable for an evening of fun for all the family. While the kids bought it with Christmas money, my wife and i really like it too. What's not to like? Its a chance to do lots of silly things, like inserting false teeth into an old lady's mouth with a time limit, or chasing people away with a skunk on a stick! You tend not to do that sort of thing on a daily basis (well, I don't) and its part of the game's appeal. OK, there ... Read review
