    Upcoming Game WarioWare music is in Mario Kart World?

    The odd thing about it is that the course doesn't otherwise appear to be based on anything that one might associate with Drifting Away, which may lend credence to it just being a random song selected in lieu of whatever music normally plays there as suggested in #2. But who knows, maybe there'll...

    Princess Shokora Thread

    There's ways to make it work, even in unexpected ways. Take if we decided to put her in a WarioWare stage; the failure animation could force her back into her cat form. Should beating the microgame allow her to assume the powerful G&W form though?

    What are this Forum's Thoughts on Young Cricket?

    I would love to see later games explore Lulu's crush on Young Cricket as a story. But whether she can ever find it within herself to host such a stage, that's a question.

    Happy Mothers' Day from WarioWare, Inc. Who else but 5-Volt to headline it? Given that WarioWare has no father figures, you might be surprised who will be leading Fathers' Day.

    Well, well, I've hit the jackpot. I've found the JSON file that defines all the event text. https://www.nintendo.com/jp/character/wario/assets/json/contact.json Here's what I have gathered from it: Each event has a month and day attached to it... but strangely, does not even attempt to emulate...

    Children's Day indeed exists (internal name childrens_day). For posterity, here's what I saw for Greenery Day, the day before. I was able to corroborate the existence of these events, although not with their text...

    This rather shouty Reddit post has archived Coming of Age Day, featuring everyone's favourite singer-scientist Penny. This one is called "coming_of_age_day" internally, and was what led to me decompiling the website to find the other internal names actually.

    While I haven't found the code that actually implements which day gets shown, I have found in the CSS file some events. I'll be leaving out the standard month days, whose internal names are all... well, the month in all lowercase letters. All pictures for the events are stored at, for example...

    Nintendo Direct soon

    If it's Intelligent Systems, it would be hilarious if it completed the Fire Emblem canonisation process WarioWare is going through and designed one of the characters to look like Marianne or something but in the Rhythm Heaven artstyle. /s In all seriousness however, my hope for Groove would be...

    Now that trailer drop, what do you think about the SW2 ?

    Unfortunately, economic reality (not just in the US) has made affordable Switch 2s a pipe dream. Australia has probably got it... not so bad, general electronics prices notwithstanding, so I'm hoping for a MKW bundle to fit in my budget. Also, the virtual game cards are an opt in thing. If...

    Upcoming Game Nintendo Switch 2 compatibility?

    None of the Joy Con 2 support the IR camera, which rules out all the Hand Model microgames. Interestingly, the compatibility section lists Move It under the "Games that require Nintendo Switch Joy-Con to play"... but specifically mentions that "it's only possible to play microgames that use...

    Nintendo Direct soon

    You certainly got the Rhythm Heaven part of that in Groove, at least. What I wonder though is who primarily developed the game. TNX is mentioned as a codeveloper, but it doesn't seem to actually be a game dev company. Intelligent Systems isn't mentioned on the copyright either, but WarioWare...

    Nintendo Direct soon

    The last time any Wario game was a launch title was WarioWare: Smooth Moves for the Wii. It would be quite neat if, to demo the mouse Joy-Con, a WarioWare also served as a launch title, but that doesn't seem too likely given Move It! only released two years ago.

    Calculating just how "classic" are Nintendo Classics

    I'm starting this as a general thread where we can track just how "classic" Nintendo Classics are in each WarioWare. While the R&D1 developers of Mega Microgames! never intended to feature anything truly from its era, over time the games have reached more and more into newer games... to the...

    Article Why Princess Shokora should return in WarioWare: A Thesis

    To add to this, if she returns as a full-fledged microgame host, I think she'd be a good fit for the Fantasy genre, although with WarioWare's ever-proliferating choice of hosts vying for the spotlight I do wonder if she's best served being combined with Dribble and Spitz... maybe as their first...

    My thoughts on why there won't be a new Rhythm Heaven game

    Tsunku's cancer struggles culminating with permanent loss of his voice certainly did not help matters, either. That said, the occasional WarioWare redraw of Rhythm Heaven characters is at least something rather than nothing.

    Interestingly, a different page than what Internet Archive saved for January 31, 2024. That could mean that the text is unique to this year and we won't get reruns of anything we've missed... or the website already considered it February at that time. I'm hoping that it'll be a loop so that we...

    It seems that Wario's new year resolution is a terrible work ethic. In addition, it looks like someone else than Wario was late to buy his fellow cabbie a present on Christmas Eve. I missed this, but luckily someone more thoughtful than me was able to archive it (but not Christmas itself...

    July 7's page is Lulu almost outing her crush on Young Cricket. It's not clear what holiday it's based on but some cursory research reveals it could be Tanabata? Contact Us | WarioWare, Inc. Official Site | Nintendo Edit: This holiday indeed is known as "tanabata" internally.
