![]() ![]() Though it is very fun, Smooth Moves isn’t without its problems. The eclectic mix of cheerleader cheers, remixed NES tunes, and J-pop music also works with this game where it would seem horribly out of place for most others. It wouldn’t work for, say, Halo, but that visual style definitely works here. Visuals are the same crappy-on-purpose MS Paint style they’ve always been with a few exceptions. 9-Volt still has plenty of retro Nintendo games to offer, as you’ll find yourself doing everything from playing with Nintendogs, reffing a Punch Out match, and even going over 100 years back in Nintendo’s history by sifting a deck of their playing cards out of a pile of sand.Īlong with motion sensitivity, the game also integrates your Miis into the game (see below) so you can watch yourself go through a boot camp style obstacle course, shoot bananas at a giant alien nose, or arm wrestle your sister’s Mii. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a WarioWare game without plenty of nose-picking and the self-referential games of 9-Volt. After smacking orange-thieving old men with a blackjack, lifting weights to the delight of a bunch of lions (above) or shoving the dentures back into the gaping maw of a toothless old granny, you’ll find that the games are just as WTF!?-inducing as they’ve always been. You may look foolish in front of your friends when you play this, but-trust me-it’s nowhere near as foolish as you’ll feel when you’re standing in your empty living room, all alone, doing squat thrusts with a plastic controller on your head and posing like a samurai, so let go of your inhibitions.įans of the series have reason to celebrate this installment. ![]() There are quite a few stances, all of which are designed to be as fun as they are silly-looking. For example, if you are given the Mohawk stance (shown above below), then you hold the Wiimote atop your head to play the upcoming microgame. You’re instructed to hold the Wiimote in a specific “stance” before playing each microgame. The Wiimote’s motion sensitivity adds a new dimension of silliness to the title. Previous versions have never been afraid to look stupid themselves, asking players slice logs, pick noses, and slather french fries with ketchup within the span of ten seconds, but Smooth Moves adds something new to the mix-now you get to look stupid, too! The newest WarioWare title, Smooth Moves, takes the erratic gameplay back to your TV for the first time since the GameCube version was released three years ago. Since its GBA inception, nothing has delivered ridiculous, ADHD-friendly fun quite like the WarioWare series. This classic GameCola article was originally posted in May, 2007. ![]()
