A solid entry in the WarioWare series, although not the best. The main gimmick this time is that you switch between characters with different abilities after each minigame. The same minigames can vary wildly in difficulty depending on the character; for example, one character floats around freely in a ufo, while another jumps uncontrollably requiring extra finesse. Most of these characters are fun to use even if they aren't always effective, but a couple of them are too limited. (9-Volt moves on his own and your only control is you can tap 'A' to shoot a yo-yo upwards. As a result, all his minigames feel basically alike).As usual, the main story is pretty short and most of your time is spent either replaying levels for high scores or playing unlockable extra ... MoreA solid entry in the WarioWare series, although not the best.

The extras are a bit sparser than usual, but one of them is really good; the Wario Cup. This is a weekly challenge mode where you're given various constraints and compete for a high score, comparing your score to people online. This is definitely a mode you should check out (you need a Nintendo Online subscription to submit your high scores online, but you can play the mode just fine without one).

I played this game at my friend's house and had so much fun with the 2 player co-op mayhem so I had to get a copy for myself but when I received my copy in the mail from Bestbuy, there is a crack on the spine of the case. I contacted their customer service requesting for a replacement but they said just go to the store to get it resolved. I went to my nearest store but they didn't have any in stock so now I'm stuck with this one.This game is so much fun with others; its funny, sometimes easy to pick up and other times a challenge getting used to as it will switch up how you maneuver through the field (i.e. character only faces one direction or a character does not stop moving). The music is great but the story is very basic but the WarioWare games were never about ... MoreI played this game at my friend's house and had so much fun with the 2 player co-op mayhem so I had to get a copy for myself but when I received my copy in the mail from Bestbuy, there is a crack on the spine of the case.

The music is great but the story is very basic but the WarioWare games were never about the story anyway. Lots of collectibles, high scores to achieve, and gameplay modes.

The newest WarioWare entry for the switch is very fun, despite being a somewhat unexpected take on the series. This is a game that only contains minigames. The minigames are diverse sure, but what makes the game interesting is that the characters you select are all very different and will have very different ways to complete each minigame. The minigames are all 2D, and aren’t tech-gimmicky (no mic, no tilting, no touchscreen stunts), but instead are like 2D retro game challenges with weird settings and tasks. Overall, it’s super fun, but the story mode can be completed in less than 5 hours, and I didn’t feel like playing for more than 10 hours total. Super fun, but short. Maybe when friends come over, I’ll break it out for the multiplayer.
