The microgames here are either far too easy, or require you to frantically search for which of the many things on screen are interactable. The latter leads to some very cheap feeling fails.
The blowing on the microphone bit is cool in concept but all of the microgames suck or else it would be too difficult.
The bullet hell boss stage is a ridiculous difficulty spike compared to the rest.

The Wii entry is way more fun.

its a great platform in terms of potential but i hate how it preys upon both children who play and the creators (some still children also) who make the content for it. most of the games pushed by them are slop riddled with robux microtransactions and unfair dopamine dripfeed game structures to keep kids and others alike addicted to the platform and spending money, often times even gambling in the form of loot boxes.

there are genuinely good games that give you a lot for free and some of the ones ive played would include stuff like Doors, Become Fumo, or one of the many other passion projects like Fnaf Co-op where the gameplay is incredibly polished and looks really pretty.
Shame the good ones are buried under the pile of predatory slop.

Absolutely enraptured me when I had it on Nintendo DSi. A great little arcade with perfect pixel aesthetics and some of the best game feel I've ever gotten off of something like this. Is just as much about twitchy movements as it is about long strides and it just is so satisfying to reach out for a Bean and get 1000 points off of it.

I actually wouldn't get that this is kind of a WarioWare thing, despite being a huge fan of the franchise even back when I first played this, until last year when our little friend Pyoro would make an appearance in WarioWare: Get It Together! It would be the first new title in the series that I would buy in years and when Pyoro made an appearance in that game I went "Wait, what the fuck, that's the Bird & Beans guy!" Then, this past year in trying to 100% WarioWare Twisted!, I would unlock a mini-game called "Pyoro R," the 'R' standing for "Rotate," I imagine. I've had 'Twisted' for ages, and I can't imagine how cool it would've been to, somewhere along the line, unlock that game closer to when I started playing this.

Bird & Beans is the fucking bomb, and a modern release on iOS/Android with online leaderboards would steal time from me like crazy. Or, dare I say...

...Pyoro 99, when???
