What do you think of warioware? I havent stopped playing the thing its soooo addictive

Stephen · 09-02-2005, 20:19

Its so addictive. think I will buy it next week as it out in the USA on the 14th I think. I have really got the hang of playing Metroid with the touch screen. Those controls are perfect for fps games.

Agreed! It is the best of the 3 games - even my wife is addicted to it and she does not like video games!

Does the full Warioware have a multiplayer option and if so will a US verion work with a UK version or will it be like Metroid?

Not sure if it does have multiplayer but if it does it should work with the UK version.

i have so brought the US version of Wario Touched! it so amazing and it's on a demo. Apparently there lots more to do in the full version. my gf and her brother were up till 2am playing it and it lasted so far about 9 hours on a single charge....(sniggers at PSP "battery") I guess someone just hasn't got the kiddie in him. My gf is 38 and I am 30 and her brother is 41 I think heh.... I might even buy a second one too after trading in my GBA SP.

I ordered the US Warioware which should be turning up this week. The demo is great but I could not wait to get the full game. Also bought Feel the magic which has some crazy games(such as shouting at the machine to get a girls attention, blowing at the screen to move a sail boat). Got Tiger woods golf as well which is ok but not great.

TigaSefi · 21-02-2005, 10:51

Heh I think mainly the games that provide short burst of fun will suit the DS much better than let's say a full blown RPG or Metroid Prime game. I even thought that Mario 64 DS wasn't that good (mini games are class though).

Halcyon · 21-02-2005, 13:09

Wow !!!
Those pics of the DS look great.

Mini games in all games are great.... look at all of them there were in Super monkey ball on the Cube. Lots of fun.

TigaSefi · 21-02-2005, 14:01

yeah super monkey ball with the stylus gonna work so well..... I hope they think of bringing it on the DS. I brought it to work, and everyone loved it.

It ok but no games bundles with it ? it a bit redundant ? Aren't there deals with games ? I haven't really looked since I already got one.

Stephen · 22-02-2005, 10:39

My full version of Warioware came this morning. It is fantastic. So much better than the demo. Some of the games are just mental.

I read that the DS is compatible with gba games. Can it also play original GB carts?

I've only got a couple of these (xenon II and r-type 2) but it would be nice if I could play them on the DS when I get one.

It can only play the GBA games.

Have to say my DS does not get a lot of use now as I bought a PSP a few weeks ago, it is amazing compared to the DS, although I still think the DS is quite good as it is different.
