I adore this game. One of my favorite party games still. There's not much content in it, but what's there is well crafted, with a sense of humor that holds up.

*it is kinda weird you have to beat the game to unlock multiplayer, a lot of people don't even know this is a party game??

while It's probably the best at using the Wii Remote capacities, It lost the unexpected feeling because of the advises before each micro game.

like every other warioware game, this is very good and you should definitely play it if you haven't already

This is literally A Perfect Game. other than the fact they sidelined my man crygor for no reason


Utilizes the wiiimote better than any other game on the system. Loads of fun, some of the better microgames in the series. Also the tutorials are hilarious.

It is very hard to describe the level of consistency that the WarioWare games are able to deliver. Just like all games that star Wario, they are short, yet perfect. Smooth Moves is able to take the Wiimote and use it in many ways that you would not expect, especially from an early Wii game. The development team clearly knew what the Wiimote was and wasn't capable of, and it is very evident throughout the use of the various "forms" of the game.

And incredibly entertaining game with an eye-catching style that uses the Wii Remote in unique ways. It's gameplay, consisting of doing small mini-games in rapid succession, has a certain rhythm and energy to it that makes it endlessly replayable and entertaining.

revisited this one, still a gem. the poses are great and the sense of humour is really ahead of its time, its funnier than the average reddit humour today. the gameplay is simplistic and i wish there were more levels but still really dope

Honestly, after seeing what could be done with the Wii-Mote at the time, I think a Switch WarioWare would be great to play.

Smooth Moves is a game that is easily enjoyed with more people around. Its quirky, its fun, simple, and can help make a dead party come back to life. Unfortunately Smooth Moves simply doesn’t bring enough to the table that really makes it the center of attention for parties, and even less when it comes to a single player experience. It still has the Wario Ware charm, but the heart isn’t all there.

Remember it being really fun

On the surface, WarioWare is a simple game about a city full of quirky people and tasking the player with goofy, timed minigames. But that's just what the government would like you to believe. This is an in-depth analysis of the themes of loss, individuality, conformity, addiction, and gnostic religious symbolism in WarioWare: Smooth Moves for the Nintendo Wii.

Deep beneath the wahahas and the groovy cats dancing is a tale of sorrow. A tale of loss and regret. A tale of raw humanity—on display for the world to see and look within themselves and ask, "am I Dribble... or am I Spitz?"

In a controversial move for Nintendo, one of WarioWare's major characters is a young witch named Ashley. Her sole intent is to separate humanity from God and devote her life to the dark lord Lucifer, wreaking chaos upon Diamond City. Her descent into madness highlights the strengths of Nintendo's greatest writers and religious researchers. I am inclined to believe this is a straight translation of a passage from the Kabbalah long lost to time.

Kat + Ana = Katana. Makes you think.

The sheer complexity behind some of the late game stages demands we stop our mindless flailing of the Wiimote and start asking where our Nunchuk adapters are. When did life pass us by? Much like 9-Volt's Game & Watch system, we too are broken.

Possibly the most compelling story is that of the mad scientist. Penny's devotion to truth and the sciences holds a mirror to our own misguided society. She abandons and outright rejects God as she continues down her path of science. Morals cast aside for the sake of what if, just as Frakenstein had. Penny's creations breed nothing but unspeakable evils and destruction. Her first victim—the unknowing Wario himself.

As Wario comes face to face with the demi-urge unleashed by Penny's selfish scientific pursuits, Wario is split into many horrid abominations. The coalition of Mini-Warios as they march headlong into the field of strawberries represents our own journey into the unknown terror we call life. The strawberry represents our innermost desires while the congregation of miniature Warios represents our desire to belong to a group, even at the cost of our own individuality.

So where does this leave us? What can we learn from our experiences during WarioWare: Smooth Moves on the Nintendo Wii? The truth may be difficult for us to hear, but WarioWare is here to tell us anyway. Jesus was black. Ronald Reagan was the devil. And the government is lying to us about 9/11.

Todo lo bueno de WarioWare, una vez más, en esta ocasión con controles de movimiento. ¿Qué mejor forma de aprovechar el gimmick del control por movimiento que con minijuegos?
Con la tontería, acabas haciendo bastante ejercicio.

I love how the devs basically had no 3D artists available so all their console games ended up looking like shit.

Eu ADORO a série WarioWare. É uma série hilária, descompromissada, que gera muita risada e uma boa dose de desafio.

A versão pra Wii tem 2 grandes pontos a destacar: os modos e o uso do wiimote.

Os modos são a estrela do jogo. Campanha single, multiplayer, minijogos extras...tudo enriquece o título e adiciona conteúdo valioso pra um jogo full price (a Nintendo, IMO, tem um forte problema com precificação).

Contudo o uso do Wiimote é, novamente, o mocinho e o bandido. Ao passo que as interações e utilizações do Wiimote estão facilmente dentre as mais criativas e divertidas do console, a imprecisão que pragueja motion control ainda é o responsável por uma certa dose de frustração quando não o devido reconhecimento, especialmente porque é característica da série ir aumentando gradativamente a velocidade e o tempo de input se tornar estupidamente curto para mudar a pegada do Wiimote e executar a ação do microjogo.

Apesar dos pesares, é um dos melhores da franquia.

One of the only good uses of the motion controls of the Wii - using them in lots of ways, with tutorials, for short bursts that don't rely on lots of precision.

played this really recently and is honestly now my favorite wario ware game. The humor is great and the mini-games are suprisingly accurate for a wii game not using the wii motion plus.

I barely remember anything about this game but I remember renting this as a kid, playing it, and having a good time because the microgames were wacky as shit and everything was fun,

Better than the mario party stuff if you wanna play with friends

Weird, wacky, and a great use of the Wii Remote with engaging microgames with different art-styles.

an outstanding warioware game. the different ways you can hold a wiimote being used as different control schemes for the microgames feels incredibly natural for the wii. this was my introduction to the series and as a result this game is very special to me. this game also invented asmr

a very fun warioware to play with incorporated wii elements. my only critique is that there is a LITTLE too many fart jokes but this is wario after all

Smooth Moves consegue construir bem em cima do que os jogos originais tinham, mas trazendo algo que até então era bem diferente: múltiplas formas de controlar. Por mais que todos usem o movimento do Wiimote, as diferentes Forms fazem as coisas serem bem diferentes entre si. Pensando que isso foi lançado junto com o próprio Wii no Japão, ter tanta variabilidade assim é bem interessante e é o precedente de jogos como WW Gold ter tantas opções também.

Uma pena que o jogo me frustrou várias vezes em controles que não eram devidamente reconhecidos ou mesmo, com tantas opções, não entender bem como ou o que fazer em alguns microgames. De toda forma, é uma experiência bem diferente e legal, feita com toda a maestria que o ano de 2006 podia proporcionar.


wiimote waggle, but it's in warioware so it's cool

WarioWare is silly and fun. Smooth Moves is no exception and greatly utilizes the Wii Remote's capabilities. Recommended if you're looking for a fun party game.

Silly warioware fun. The microgames are fast paced and funny, and I always liked the art style.
