Undoubtedly ruins the core mechanic of Wario-Ware by interrupting the gameplay to show you which pose to use, which removes any spontaneity and surprise between mini-games. The novelty and humour make it worth it though. There's a relatively well fleshed out dart minigame thats easy to spend hours on with friends
I don't usually like rating games this high purely off of fun factor alone (if that were the case, I'd have RE5 as an all-time favorite... how horrifying to think about) but I've got to do sooomething for warioware, yknow? It's well-deserving besides. Though it was my first warioware game, having played it some many years ago, I revisited this game sometime in mid 2023 and I had a thoroughly fun time with it! The microgames are all very interesting and intuitive, barring a small handful I couldn't figure out how to make work. the variety in the usage of motion control is great and i.m falling asleep now bye
WarioWare: Smooth Moves is pure chaotic fun, delivering a hilarious collection of lightning-fast microgames that utilize the Wii Remote in bizarre and creative ways. You'll twist, twirl, and flail your controller mimicking actions like hula hooping or nose picking. The humor is delightfully absurd, and the focus on physical movements makes it a fantastic party game. While the single-player experience can feel short, WarioWare: Smooth Moves excels in its multiplayer madness, guaranteeing hours of laughter and ridiculousness.
This is either tied with WW: Touched! for my favorite WarioWare or it may be a slight 2nd place. The quintessential wacky, quick-paced microgames of WW feel like they thrive on the Wii. Say what you will about motion controls; in this game, they were utilized with creativity & skill. Played this with a group of a dozen or so friends at a high school party & woke up the next day hoarse from all the shouting & unbridled laughter. And that's gotta count for something.
WarioWare: Smooth Moves is a quirky, off-the-wall adventure that'll have you questioning reality and laughing hysterically at the same time. While some might deny its existence (seriously, who's ever heard of it?), those in the know understand its zany appeal.
This game is like stumbling into an alternate dimension where chaos reigns supreme, and Wario is your mischievous guide. With its unique microgames and unconventional controls, it's a wild ride from start to finish. Whether you're racing against the clock or trying to figure out what exactly you're supposed to be doing, each microgame offers a fresh and unexpected challenge.
Sure, it may not be as legendary as its sequel, WarioWare: Shove It Up Your Own Ass Game (seriously, who comes up with these names?), but Smooth Moves holds its own as a wacky, unforgettable experience. So, if you're ready to embrace the absurdity and dive headfirst into the chaos, give WarioWare: Smooth Moves a spin. Just don't be surprised if you find yourself questioning reality along the way.
Score: 8/10
