    The Japanese version of WarioWare Snapped! has compatibility with the obscure, Japan-only DSi game Atsumeru Egaocho (name translates to something like "Smile Collecting Book"), which had some WarioWare staff involved. If Snapped detects you have a save for that game, some graphics will be...

    New Wario series sales thread

    Since I made this thread, a more comprehensive website called nichebarrier.com has started, which includes week-to-week sales figure. These are the ones for DIY, Twisted and Gold It's worth noting that digital sales have gotten much stronger in Japan since Gold came out.

    For its 3rd week in Japan, Move It sold 10.487, bringing its retail sales in the country to a total of 53.411. The launch of Momorato Densetsu World didn't affect it as much as I thought it would but we'll see how it plays out over the following weeks.

    New Wario series sales thread

    The one mitigating factorI see is that the game looks very budget-conscious (not much content, all the voice clips are recycled from Gold, not that much voice-acting even if the cutscenes are fully voiced again, expensive charles martinet repalced by a complete newbie who I assume they aren't...

    New Wario series sales thread

    For the Oct 30 - Nov 5 period, Move It launched at the #3 spot in Japan with 29.584 units sold. This is not a great debut. For comparison, WarioWare Gold launched at 35K and Get It Together at ~73k. I don't expect it to have much legs either because in the following weeks, the sequel to...

    New Wario series sales thread

    First bit of data for Move It (for reference, GiT was #1 in its launch week) Tbh I expect sales to be soft. It barely charted on Japanese store pre-orders and it doesn't seem to be charting at all on regional e-shops or online retaillers. When I checked the Canadian e-shop top sellers, it was...

    Upcoming Game To those who played WarioWare: Move It, what are your thoughts so far?

    The motion controls are really not doing it for me. The game is very finnicky about the exact position and orientation of the joycons, and being dyspraxic, that's kind of a problem. And even when you eventually master the poses, it never feels quite as fast or intuitive as it should be. Smooth...

    WarioWare portal page (now in English!)

    Nintendo's Japanese website has been updated with a spiffy portal page for the WarioWare series. It has a retrospective, pages for Mona / Jimmy T / Ashley / Red / Dr.Crygor / Mike / Penny, Wario saying his favourite movie is the non-existent Wario movie, an employee contact form and a bunch of...

    Upcoming Game Reviews are out

    https://www.metacritic.com/game/warioware-move-it/critic-reviews/?platform=nintendo-switch The trickle hasn't ended yet but it seems about as divisive as Get it Together. Some say the motion controls are brilliant and other say they suck. Some like that it's focused on unusual controls again...
