The Warioware series is responsible for the mini game craze that is still pretty popular to this day. You'll find mini-game compilations across multiple platforms that have tried to mimick what Warioware first accomplished. Still, the Warioware series in my mind is still the best mini-game compilations series out there. The series is still going pretty strong today with the great Smooth Moves on Nintendo's Wii. The series started with Warioware Microgame$ back in 2003. When I first played the game it was possibly the most refreshing, most original game I had ever played. And I still believe that this first installment in the series is still the best one.

In Warioware you get to choose one of the many wacky characters and play their mini games. Each character has their own genre of mini games. 9-Volt, a crazed little Nintendo fanboy, his minigames are a compilation of old Nintendo classics. Dr.Crygor, a weird scientist, his mini games deal with reality. Orbulan, an alien, his mini games deal with puzzle solving and thinking. The mini games start out slowly but get faster and more difficult as you go. Every 10-15 mini games there is a boss mini game which is a bit longer than 3 seconds. Completing a boss mini game gives you an extra life. You have 4 extra lives and once you lose them all...you lose. The game records the top 3 scores for each character's mini game. One of the things that was so refreshing about this game when I first played it was the humor. The total randomness, wackiness, and crazy sound effects are laugh out loud funny. Besides the main mini game compilations there are a bunch of great unlockables. The full playable version of Dr.Mario being one of them (Dr. Wario in this game, of course.) . The game has great value and replayability with over 200 mini games to complete. Warioware Microgame$ is one of the best GBA games out there.

  A trip to one of the biggest malls in Europe (and the biggest in Portugal) proved fruitful with a cheap wacky find. Wario Ware Inc.: Mega MicroGame$ was sitting on the bottom shelf of a store for roughly $13. I never pla... Read Full Review

  One of the weirdest games I've ever played. At first, I thought this was a bad idea. Boy, was I wrong! It's great

  I've never seen anything quite like this. It's like someone took a fragment from every type of 8-bit game ever made (some 16-bit) and put those fragments into one cartridge to play on the GBA. At first, this game looks ... Read Full Review
