2.01. Story
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
This is the 'story' of WarioWare: Smooth Moves - note that it has been lifted
from the game's manual, and none of it is of my own composition.
--
Message From The Editor In Chief, Wario.
Have I got a story for you! It all started this morning, when I was taking
a break from starting this column. Just as I sat down in my snacking chair,
a freakish little creature appeared out of nowhere and snatched all my food
away! NO ONE MESSES WITH ME LIKE THAT!
I started running after the little weirdo, but he was pretty fast! Before I
knew it, we were in this rickety old shack on the other side of town.
Apparently, the shack was a temple for some ancient civilization!
Wha-wha-WHAT! Talk about FREAKY!
Anyway, inside the shack I found this stick and picked it up. Nothing about the
stick screamed TREASURE! or GET RICH QUICK! but I've got a nose for that
kinda thing. Plus, I noticed that, depending on how I moved and held the
stick-thing, different things would happen.
Suddenly, I had one of my patented great ideas: I would share the wisdom of
the ancients with the people of DIAMOND CITY. And what better way to share
information than creating a magazine!
So, TA DA! Here it is.
I know what you're thinkin', but really, I'm not trying to turn a profit by
selling my magazine! But it's not like I'm gonna turn away donations or
anything!
Because I'm Editor In Chief, the magazine is called...
THE "WEEKLY WARIO"! WHAT ELSE?!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
2.02. Basics
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
WarioWare: Smooth Moves is a game of fast paced minigames one after another. If
you fail the minigame then you lose a life, if you succeed then
you march on. Every so often you will come across a boss battle, and if you
win you will gain a life and the difficulty of the minigames will increase.
If you lose then you lose one life and you the difficulty of the minigames will
increase regardless. You start with four lives and if you lose them, it's
game over. You cannot get more than four lives at one time.
You can fail the minigame through several ways, which are explained in the
minigame section later, however each one has a time limit (except the boss
battles). You can check what the time limit is by the bomb and fuse line at
the bottom of the screen. Of course the shorter the fuse, the less time
remains. Usually you will receive audio conformation when you succeed of fail
a mini game.
Before each minigame, you are told which Pose to assume in order to play the
minigame. From that pose you are meant to perform movements in order to pass
the game, so for example with Umbrella you have make Mario jump by jerking the
Wiimote vertically upward, or by hitting it forward you can swat flies in
another minigame. As you progress through the Single Player unlocking more
and more characters, more Poses become available but don't worry as each one
comes with a quick explanation.
On the Main Menu, you have a selection of characters. Each one has a different
range of minigames with different poses to each (although some overlap).
Each one has a unique boss as well at regular intervals, while the minigames
for that character come in a random order. The game ends when you lose all
your lives, as it goes on forever - although it does get ridiculously hard
in the later numbers.
------
Handy!
------
In the Factory, it's possible to change which hand you will play with. Of
course choose the one you will play with as this will change some things.
The bomb and fuse location will differ (so it goes on the opposite side your
hand will be so you can see it). Some minigames will change too, such as
Rotate! where the rotating wheel will be on the opposite side.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
2.03. Controls and Poses
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-------
Buttons
-------
A Button - Select / Microgame Action
B Button - Speed through Menu Explanations / Microgame Action
+ and - Buttons - Pause Game
As the above shows you mainly use the Wii remote motion to play the games.
Before each game you need to assume a pose, which can be seen below. Although
the game advises you to stand and use the wrist strap, neither as used as
most games can be done by sitting (the odd few can be cheated with to
compensate, which are explained in the minigames). If you want to pause then
press both + and - together, or easier still, the HOME button.
----- Poses
-----
Here is every pose in the game, and how to get them right. You unlock more
as you get in the game, but here is all 19 (21 including the nunchuk) poses.
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Umbrella
Hold the Wiimote upright so the front faces you, with your thumb over the
A button incase you need to use it during a microgame. From here you can
move it in any direction according to the microgame.
The Handlebar
Hold the Wiimote face up and so the pointer is facing left, and hold it
with two hands on either end. Games include pumping up and down, or
keeping balance by holding it straight.
The Samurai
From your left hip, when the game starts move it toward the screen. This
includes slicing objects and a gun-wielding draw.
The Sketch Artist
The same as the Remote Control, except you are holding the Wiimote with
your thumb and index finger, still face up and pointing at the screen.
Although most these games are pointing ones anyway, some require the
positioning to succeed properly (such as Darts, as throwing is easier in
this position). Basically you are holding the Wiimote like you would a
pencil or pen.
The Chauffeur
This is basically the Handlebar, but the front of the Wiimote facing
toward you with the pointer still pointing left. You need this for the
car driving boss game and various others, like Extreme Patty-Cake. Just
make sure it's facing you however, otherwise you might bugger up a
little.
The Waiter
Hold out your hand flat and rest the Wiimote face up upon it. Most of
these games require balance of some degree, so when you are doing one of
these games hold it as flat and as still as you can before the game
begins.
The Tug-Of-War
Pointing the Wiimote toward the screen with two hands on it, most of
these games involve moving the Wiimote away or toward the screen.
Although this is the same as the Remote Control effectively, the two
handed stance does help get you pulling the remote to pass the games.
The Elephant
Hold the Wiimote from your nose facing outward. You don't actually have
to do this as it's pretty much the same as the Remote Control (most use
the pointer) however it's more fun if you actually do. :)
The Discard
This is where you put the Wiimote down and pick it up at the right time.
Although it tells you face down, *most* of the time this doesn't matter,
and also you can just face it down in midair and hover it, then move it
(if you haven't got a surface nearby). Just have your hand by the Wiimote
ready to pick it up however.
The Thumb Wrestler
Hold it upright with your thumb over the sensor. Like the Umbrella, but
you need to have your thumb at the top. The microgames aren't that
different, mind.
The Big Cheese
Requires to you have your Wiimote at your side. This includes using a
hola hoop and flapping your arms to fly. Can be cheated with though by
just holding it in front of you and replicating the same actions.
The Mohawk
Hold the Wiimote with both hands just above your head with the front
pointing toward the TV screen. Most of these have you moving your body
(such as doing squats), aiming, or stabbing down from this top position.
Like many of these whacky poses, this one can be faked by just holding
it in front of you and replicating the same movements.
The Dumbbell
Hold the Wiimote in one hand to it's side, so it's facing to the right.
Games require you to move the Wiimote up and down, or sometimes across.
The Janitor
Hold the Wiimote upright so it faces you, and with two hands like a
broom. The same as the Umbrella but with two hands.
The Finger Food
Hold the Wiimote on it's side between your thumb and finger, with the tip
still facing the screen. It's named because you pose like you would when
picking out finger food. Almost all of these involve you rotating the
Wiimote to the sides, like for unlocking doors with a key.
The Boxer
Hold the Wiimote in one hand to it's side, so it's facing to the left.
This is the same as The Dumbbell but facing the other way.
The Mortar and Pestle
Hold the Wiimote in your right hand vertically and hold the bottom with
your left. This is mostly so it's stablised and doesn't move the Wiimote
around, as an example microgame includes holding it like a joystick.
The Diner A
Both the Wiimote and Nunchuck held up, facing toward you.
The Diner B
Both the Wiimote and Nunchuk face down and pointing towad the screen.
The Diner C
Have the Wiimote and Nunchuck's tips facing one another.

cream.

random item such as a shoe.
------------

Objective: Throw the food up in the wok until it lands on the plate by jerking
up the furthest end of the Wiimote up.
Variations:

to avoid the various dangers.
Variations:
Level 1 - A few birds.
Level 2 - A few more birds.
Level 3 - Birds, Walking people and falling objects.
Strategy: For the first two levels, remain in the middle of the screen so
you can see the birds coming from the sides, enabling you to easily
move out of the way in time. The third level is quite tricky; I
find it easier to stay in the middle and when the birds show up
plant myself underneath them to avoid any falling objects, also
noting to move incase of people also.
Obstacles: Birds, Falling Objects (spike balls and sticks), People.
Other notes: None.
----------------------------
You Can Pick Your Friends...

the edges.
Variations:
Level 1 - Slight unpeeling.

otherwise just go over the edges quickly if you cannot see where
the poster is coming off.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The Wanted Wario poster head comes alive. Wooooah.
--------------
Shaving Scream

Variations:
Level 1 - Slight amount of facial hair above mouth
Level 2 - More facial hair around mouth, longer hair elsewhere
Level 3 - Complete facial hair around mouth, longer hair elsewhere
Strategy: Point the Wiimote at the facial hair to shave it off. Later stages
will include longer hair either at the chin or sideburns, but just
takes the same time to shave (just out of the way I guess). If you
haven't passed, go over the stubble edges to get any remaining bits.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: He'll show some soreness after the shave. Worth documenting?
-----------
One In Hole
-----------------------------------------

pointing and moving the Wiimote toward or further away from the
screen.
Variations:
Level 1 - One character.

fan! Move the Wiimote up and down to fan.
Variations:
Level 1 - Several Wariolings, Standard RoboWario.
Level 2 - More Wariolings, Advanced RoboWario.
Level 3 - Most Wariolings, Tough RoboWario.
Strategy: For the first section, lots of little Wariolings will come over the
cliff and advance toward you. Just fan away at this point, no
strategy needed. When facing RoboWario, wait until he has fully
appeared from the edge of the cliff and has his hand raised, and
quickly fan away until he either lowers his hand or is blown away.
If you fan when his hand is down, he'll just block. When he is blown
away you are done here. The later stages have RoboWarios that attack
slightly quicker, so after the blocks be prepared for his attack;
one swipe will take out the fan for good!
Obstacles: Wariolings, RoboWario.
Other notes: None.

------------
Stage Fright
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Using the Wiimote pointer, shine the light to find the little guy.
Variations:
Level 1 - Large Light.
Level 2 - Medium Light.
Level 3 - Small Light; guy moves.
Strategy: Just quickly search the entire screen and when you catch a glimpse
keep him in view for a second or so to complete this microgame.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------------
Welcome Committee
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Control the rocket by tilting the Wiimote side to side and aim it
into the alien spaceship.
Variations:
Level 1 - Stationary spaceship.
Level 2 - Moving spaceship.
Level 3 - Offensive spaceship.
Strategy: Just aim toward the spaceship for this one; the first level is
pretty tricky though, just head around the projectiles so you
come round and hit the ship from one of the sides.
Obstacles: Projectiles from spaceship (level 3 only).
Other notes: Kind of reminds me of when Will Smith says 'Welcome to Earth' in
Independence Day. The theme and title at least.
-------------------------
Keep Your Guy On The Ball
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Hold the Wiimote still to keep the guy balanced on the ball!
Variations:
Level 1 - Long balancing stick.
Level 2 - Medium sized balanced stick.
Level 3 - Shortest balancing stick, easier to give way.
Strategy: Hopefully you'll be starting this game off with the Wiimote held
horizontally straight as much as possible, otherwise you'll topple
right over. If you start giving way, only gradually tilt the Wiimote
in the opposite direction - sudden movements will just make you come
off the other side. On Level 3, the movements you make have more an
impact so make sure you make them more gradual.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The panda makes a funny noise when you near the edge. :)
-------
Fan Boy

Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Fan the Wiimote back and forth to keep the paper butterflies in the
air!
Variations:
Level 1 - One paper butterfly.

too fast or slow will make them fall to the ground.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------
Shakedown
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Shake the Wiimote to remove the debris from the object!
Variations:
Level 1 - Insects on a banana
Level 2 - Soapy suds on a man
Level 3 - Tiny robots on a robot
Strategy: Just quickly shake the Wiimote from side to side (only a few
centimetres either way) until all the insects or suds are removed.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different ending animations for each level, the first two
featuring a crudly drawn banana.
---------
Swat Team
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Whack the Wiimote forward to swat the fly on the wall!
Variations:
Level 1 - Stationary fly.
Level 2 - Moving fly, smaller swatter.
Level 3 - Faster moving fly, even smaller swatter.
Strategy: The first level is straight forward, just whack it forward to pass.
The second and third levels involve a moving fly, so wait until
it stops in the centre of the screen and quickly swat it to pass.
If you are too slow, then it'll fly away and you'll fail.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------
Carrot Away
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Pull the carrots out of the ground by pulling up on the Wiimote!
Variations:
Level 1 - One carrot.
Level 2 - Two carrots.
Level 3 - Three carrots.
Strategy: Quickly pull up on the Wiimote to get the carrot out of the ground -
it requires about a movement of 1ft upward, otherwise he'll just
stumble so be don't be afraid to over do it!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-------------
Runner's High
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Finish the race by holding the Wiimote like a baton and running!
Variations:
Level 1 - No competitors.
Level 2 - One competitor.
Level 3 - Two competitors.
Strategy: Move your arm as if you were running up and down so make him run
towards the finish. On later stages you have competitors to win
against, so make sure you come first. Oh and you have to finish the
face on all the levels in order to pass.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: On certain races, they will have 'Go NAME!' where NAME would
be the one you entered for your profile!
--------
Fired Up
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Change the angle of the bouncing bar to correctly bounce the
survivors to the firemen!
Variations:
Level 1 - One bar.
Level 2 - Two bars.
Level 3 - Two bars, two survivors.
Strategy: For all of these only gradual tilting is required. For level 1,
just tilt it slightly toward the fire crew. For Level 2, tilt the
top bar toward the bottom one, and midbounce tilt it toward the
fire crew to get him to safety. For level 3 you have two bars and
two survivors; you only need to use one of these bars though, so
whatever one the first survivor goes toward, that's the one you'll
use for the other. Bounce them both straight to the fire crew and
not off the other bar.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------
Dough Boy

Objective: Pull the various items out of their holds! Point the hand toward the
item and once it's gripped on, just jerk back away from the screen
to pull it out.
Variations:
Level 1 - Nose hair.
Level 2 - Remote Control from boy.
Level 3 - Two umbrellas.
Strategy: Quickly target the object and jerk backward away from the screen to
pull out the object. The second and third levels require two tugs,
as the boy puts up a fight and the second level has you aiming
at the second umbrella and pulling that one once you have finished
with the first.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-------------
Come to Poppa
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Pump the Wiimote up and down to inflate the balloon until it bursts!
Variations:
Level 1 - Large balloon.
Level 2 - Medium balloon.
Level 3 - Small balloon.
Strategy: The later levels require more pumps. You need to really go at it for
this one, even on level 1, so really pump away in order to pass.
It might be easier if you do this one handed too. The later levels
have the balloon smaller so there is more to pump, so act sharp.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different objects come out of the balloon when burst, including
birds, confetti and a small man with a leaf. The level 3 balloon
also looks like a tomato.
------------
Closing Time
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Close the shop shutters by pushing the Wiimote control down.
Variations:
Level 1 - Few customers.
Level 2 - More customers.
Level 3 - More customers, some wanted to get in.
Strategy: For the first two levels, when everyone is out just close the
shutters (level 2 has an old lady go in when everyone is leaving,
but that's fine). For level 3, once everyone has left quickly close
the shop, as two people want back in and letting them in will
fail you.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The shutter animation will be a tomato, chicken and house (in that
order). Shutting customers in when they are leaving will make
them run into the shutter, creating an imprint of their body.
Someones your name will appear above the shop, such as 'NAME's
MARKET'.
---------
Over Easy
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Flip over the food by fliping over the Wiimote control face down!
Variations:
Level 1 - Pancake.
Level 2 - Starfish.
Level 3 - Large fish (understatement).
Strategy: You aren't meant to be flipping it up in the air, just turn the
Wiimote from face up to face down so you are dropping it back onto
the saucepan. If you don't do it quick enough you'll just drop it
on the same side.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different animations for winning; when the food is served, the
pancake is joined by more and some syrup, the starfish is joined
by more moving starfish and the large fish just moves off the
plate (clearly underdone).
------------------
Honeymoon Fall Out
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Reach out and grab the arm of the falling girl!
Variations:
Level 1 - Fairly close.
Level 2 - A slight tad further away.
Level 3 - Slightly further away still, arm moving around.
Strategy: Move the Wiimote toward the screen pointing toward her arm quickly
to rescue her. Wait too long as you cannot reach her and she falls
too her doom (oops). The final level her arm is moving around so
move toward her in that general direction and then quickly adjust
to grab her properly.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different surroundings; skyscraper, canyon, plane (if you fail
the last one, she is swept away by the rushing air at the last
minute, somewhat sadistically funny).
--------------------
Universal Marionette
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Move the puppet's strings by tilting the Wiimote to bat away the
watermelon onslaught!
Variations:
Level 1 - Few watermelons.
Level 2 - More watermelons.
Level 3 - Lots of watermelons, both sides.
Strategy: Tilt up in the direction you want to swing the limbs to bat away
the oncoming fruit. I found just going crazy with the tilting works
rather well, although you may need to be more specific on level 3.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: If you fail to bat the watermelons away, a watermelon will
replace the puppets head. Keep failing and they will just keep on
replacing.
-----------
Cupsy Daisy
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control.
Objective: Get the ball in the cup!
Variations:
Level 1 - Short string.
Level 2 - Medium string.
Level 3 - Long string.
Strategy: Simply move from The Remote Control (pointing face on) to The
Umbrella (pointing upward) quickly and the ball will fall into the
cup. Ta da.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Flowers will grow out of the top of the cup.
-------------
Escape Artist

Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Lower the helicopter and ladder to rescue 'Fronk' from the building!
Variations:
Level 1 - Open roof.
Level 2 - Denser roof.
Level 3 - Dense passage on the roof.
Strategy: Direct the helicopter above the passage and move left and right until
the ladder falls down the passage, and when Fronk grabs on pull up
and awaaaay.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Fronk has featured in other WarioWare games, I'm sure.
-----------------
Five More Minutes
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Tap the top of the alarm clock to turn it off!
Variations:
Level 1 - Close positioning.
Level 2 - Far positioning.
Level 3 - Moving around.
Strategy: Ensure you are pointing at the screen and point the arm over the
alarm clock, and move the Wiimote down to stop the clock. Later
you need to move a bit further up the screen.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------------
Tearful Reunion
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Handlebar
Objective: Tilt the Wiimote toward the island to make the zipwire move the
person toward it, when the timing is right.
Variations:
Level 1 - Clear path to the island.
Level 2 - Whale blocking path.
Level 3 - Two whales blocking the path.
Strategy: For levels 2 and 3, wait for the water to stop spirting and tilt
the Wiimote toward the island.
Obstacles: Whales.
Other notes: The zipwire can go either left or right, with the guy or lass on
it.s
------------
Hand Me Down
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Hand the erm, hand the object you are holding!
Variations:
Level 1 - Slow moving hand.
Level 2 - Jerky moving hand.
Level 3 - Speratdic moving hand.
Strategy: When the time is right, move the Wiimote from upright to horizontal
to give the object to the hand. Watch the timing in order to pass,
as if you get it wrong then you'll just throw the object away. Oops!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Objects include pipes, leaks and bananas. The hand may also be
dirty too!
----------------
Wet Your Whistle
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Drink the water from the cup!
Variations:
Level 1 - Small amount of water.
Level 2 - Half a cup of water.
Level 3 - Full cup of water.
Strategy: Gradually tilt the water toward you (as if you were drinking) until
it's all gone. If you tilt too quickly you'll just splash it over
your face and fail!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The liquid has different effects on each level. Level 1 the
water will make long thin hairs grow out of his head, Level 2 is
an afro, and Level 3 will make him super muscley!
---------------------------
BOSS STAGE: Toilet Training
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Guide people into the toilets, either into male or female!
Variations:
Level 1 - Few people, reasonable order.
Level 2 - More people, slight disorder.
Level 3 - Lots of people, less order.
Strategy: From pointing the Wiimote up, move it right to guide the ladies to
the women's toilets and left to guide them to the men's. They will
come down from the top of the screen and take various paths on their
way. The first level the order is pretty much as they come. The
second level has some of them tripping up, and so others may over
take them; have quick reactions to change toilets if that happens.
The third level has more people tripping and people jumping from
the middle toward you; keep an eye out on all those that are coming
down and remember what sex the jumper was so when they appear in a
second or two you can quickly send them on their way. Make one
mistake and you fail!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Make a mistake and the person will fly into the other toilet,
rather humourous. Also your created Mii's occasionally make an
appearance!

==============
Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Samurai
From your left hip, when the game starts move it toward the screen. This
includes slicing objects and a gun-wielding draw.
The Sketch Artist
The same as the Remote Control, except you are holding the Wiimote with
your thumb and index finger, still face up and pointing at the screen.
Although most these games are pointing ones anyway, some require the
positioning to succeed properly (such as Darts, as throwing is easier in
this position). Basically you are holding the Wiimote like you would a
pencil or pen.
The Chauffeur
This is basically the Handlebar, but the front of the Wiimote facing
toward you with the pointer still pointing left. You need this for the
car driving boss game and various others, like Extreme Patty-Cake. Just
make sure it's facing you however, otherwise you might bugger up a
little.

Cutting Edge
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Samurai
Objective: Slice the object!
Variations:
Level 1 - Stationary object.
Level 2 - Moving object.
Level 3 - Jumping object.
Strategy: Slice across the screen from the side to take out the object. Do it
quickly for the second level, and for the third, point the Wiimote
at the edge of the screen and quickly move across when the falls
across the screen and down the hole.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------
On The Edge
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Complete the line tracing!
Variations:
Level 1 - Less to trace.
Level 2 - More to trace.
Level 3 - A lot to trace.
Strategy: Using the pointer, just follow around the dark line to fill it in
until it's complete. You have more to do in later levels so be
quicker.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different objects to trace leading to different animations, such
as circles (plates), hearts (ugly faced heart) and fish (blimp).
--------------
Serve Already!
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Bounce the ball on the racket!
Variations:
Level 1 - Standard Tennis Racket.
Level 2 - Smaller Tennis Racket.
Level 3 - Table Tennis Paddle.
Strategy: You get a second or two to position in the centre of the screen, with
the shadow of the ball showing where it will land. Keep bouncing the
ball until the game finishes. Keep it in the middle, and if you like
you can hit it up in the air, which may save you some bounces. The
last stage is Table Tennis, which is pretty tough as it requires
more bounces but just keep your hand steady and your bounces
vertical.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------
Paper Trail
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Guide the paper airplane around the tree!
Variations:
Level 1 - Slow speed, tree central.
Level 2 - Fast speed, tree central.
Level 3 - Fast speed, tree random placing.
Strategy: Take the plane down under the tree leaves with some distance away
from the ground and keep it steady until you finish. It gets faster
in later stages so just keep steady, and dodge that tree. Just
clipping the leaves can fail you.
Obstacles: Tree.
Other notes: Fun!

Objet D'Art
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Throw the dart at the dart board!
Variations:
Level 1 - Normal sized board.

forward toward the screen, throwing it at the board with some luck.
As long as you hit somewhere on the main board, you'll pass.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: If you hit a bullseye (the centre) it lights up the board! Whee!
--------------
Frequent Flyer
-----------------------------------------
Pose: Pass out fliers to people.
Objective: The Samurai
Variations:
Level 1 - Stationary person.
Level 2 - Walking person.
Level 3 - Running person.
Strategy: Quickly point the Wiimote at the screen to hand out the flier.
For
the other levels, wait until they are in front of you or have
stopped before handing out the flier.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
------------------
Extreme Patty-Cake
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Clap the hands of the person in front of you!
Variations:
Level 1 - Stationary hands.
Level 2 - Hands move away gradually.
Level 3 - Hands move away quickly.
Strategy: Jolt the Wiimote toward the screen to clap the persons hands and to
send them flying. For the second and third levels they will move
their hands away every so often, so wait until they do this and when
they put them back into position hit them good.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different people on each level. The third one gets eaten by a
giant cat if you get him.

Variations:
Level 1 - Thin slab of meat.
Level 2 - Thick slab of meat.
Level 3 - Roll the meat to the village.
Strategy: Rotate the Wiimote around quickly so it cooks the meat. If you
take too long you'll burn it and you'll fail. The third level sees
you rolling it toward the village, be faster here.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-------------
Teeth Polithe
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Insert the teeth into the ladies mouth!
Variations:
Level 1 - Standing still.
Level 2 - Moving left to right.
Level 3 - Moving herself and her jaw.
Strategy: Point the Wiimote at the screen and when you've got it right,
move the Wiimote toward the screen to insert them into her mouth.
Later stages she is moving left to right, with level 3 seeing her
opening and closing her gob. She has it open from the off, so if you
are quick you can pass this game sharpish.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: She wears different clothing and eats different foods upon
completion, such as an apple, corn on the cob and a carrot.
-------------
Cookie Rookie
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Cut out the shape from the dough!
Variations:
Level 1 - Large sheet of dough.
Level 2 - Medium sized sheet of dough.
Level 3 - Small sheet of dough.
Strategy: Aim carefully in the centre of the dough and move the Wiimote
toward the screen to make the imprint. If you get it at the edge
and only cut off half of the shape you fail! So make sure you
cut it out right.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different shapes including crosses and men.
----------------------
A Moment of Reflection
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Shine the light on the head of the nearest person!
Variations:
Level 1 - Large hairdo.

Strategy: Move the mirror by tilting the Wiimote so it shines on the head
of the person nearest. Keep doing this until the game is complete.

Other notes: Different things occur, like the hair burning or making the
bold hair shinier.

Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Aim at the ladies head for snapping a picture!
Variations:
Level 1 - Close up.
Level 2 - Out of the way.
Level 3 - Far away.
Strategy: You'll see some of her body, so point the Wiimote in the direction of
her bounce and keep aiming there until you pass. You may be asked to
rotate the Wiimote for a portrait image too.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------------------
Stick It Through 'Em!
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Skewer all the food!
Variations:
Level 1 - Food is stationary.
Level 2 - Food moves slightly.
Level 3 - Comets move a lot.
Strategy: Jab forward with the Wiimote when the food is lined up. With levels 2
and 3 there will be a time when they are all lined up so just wait
and quickly jab to pass this microgame.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The finishing animations differ for all three levels; Level 1 has
the muscle man eating the food, level 2 three muscle men wear
apple helmets and level 3 has the muscle man riding a rocket into
space.
------------
Shear Terror
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Shave the animal!
Variations:
Level 1 - Shave the sheep.
Level 2 - Shave the dog.

Objective: Raise your arms in time with the others!
Variations:
Level 1 - Fair timing.
Level 2 - More timing.
Level 3 - Raising and lowering.
Strategy: Get the timing of the line and raise your arms when it's your turn -
use the rumble of the Wiimote to help you here. For Level 3, keep
the Wiimote raised in the air as the line will double back and you'll
be required to lower it.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
--------------
S-T-R-E-T-C-H!
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Point toward the item the animal wants!
Variations:
Level 1 - Cat wants the fish.

Budget Dentistry
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Sketch Artist
Objective: Do the fillings in the patient's mouth!
Variations:
Level 1 - One filling.

Variations:
Level 1 - Ball positioned at the edge of the maze.
Level 2 - Ball positioned near the centre of the maze.
Level 3 - Ball positioned at the centre of the maze.
Strategy: Tilting the Wiimote will tilt the maze, so move it so the ball drops
down below, then in the next direction and so on. Tilt sharply as you
won't have much time to finish each one that quickly.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: As far as I can tell, it's the same maze each time.
----------
Simon Says
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Samurai
Objective: Match the pose!
Variations:
Level 1 - Quick pose.
Level 2 - Longer pose.
Level 3 - Longest pose.
Strategy: Match the pose of the guy on screen. However as all of them are
just the Wiimote facing up, you can get away with just have the
Wiimote in the facing up Umbrella position, and nudge it up slightly
to fool the game into thinking you've moved and you will pass.
Although this microgame isn't exactly tough anyway.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------------
Code Dependency
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Scan the item through the barcode reader!
Variations:
Level 1 - Smaller item.
Level 2 - Larger item.
Level 3 - Most awkward item.
Strategy: Rotate the Wiimote around to move the item until the barcode is
facing down. Once it's scanned, you've passed. If it doesn't read
fiddle around with the positioning until it does.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The higher the level, the most expensive the item becomes.
---------

Variations:
Level 1 - Small crowd.
Level 2 - Medium crowd.
Level 3 - Largest crowd.

moves up the screen and to the stage, where you pass. Later stages
just keep shaking until you are done.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------------------
BOSS STAGE: Driver's Ed
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Drive the car to the finish!
Variations:
Level 1 - Linear Course, few obstacles.
Level 2 - Winding Course, few obstacles.
Level 3 - Very twisty course, most obstacles.
Strategy: Drive using the Wiimote like a steering wheel to the finish line.
The only things you can hit at cows (most of which are at the sides
of the road) and the trees at the trackside. The birds that fly
across the screen just cloud your vision and the monkeys you cannot
run over. Just stay on the road at all costs. Later stages the
track is very twisty, so stay on your toes and really tilt the
remote to turn sharply.
Obstacles: Cows.
Other notes: None.

==============
Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Waiter
Hold out your hand flat and rest the Wiimote face up upon it. Most of
these games require balance of some degree, so when you are doing one of
these games hold it as flat and as still as you can before the game
begins.
The Tug-Of-War
Pointing the Wiimote toward the screen with two hands on it, most of
these games involve moving the Wiimote away or toward the screen.
Although this is the same as the Remote Control effectively, the two
handed stance does help get you pulling the remote to pass the games.
The Elephant
Hold the Wiimote from your nose facing outward. You don't actually have
to do this as it's pretty much the same as the Remote Control (most use
the pointer) however it's more fun if you actually do. :)

------------
Broom Shtick
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Waiter
Objective: Keep the broom upright!
Variations:
Level 1 - Short head.
Level 2 - Medium head.
Level 3 - Long head.
Strategy: Hold the broom as still as possible. If it moves then gradually
move the Wiimote in the opposite direction. If you start this game
with the Wiimote moving or unstraight, then it'll fall over straight
away so get it right!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------------
That's How I Roll
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Waiter
Objective: Roll the balls into the holes!
Variations:
Level 1 - One ball.
Level 2 - Two balls.
Level 3 - Three balls.
Strategy: Moving the Wiimote moves the stage, so tilt it so a ball goes into
the hole closest to it to start with then deal with the rest. Do
small gradual movements, as if you start rolling around it will be
hard to stop the ball and you won't be able to get it back into the
centre again.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: A snowman, rainbow and dolphins come out of the rolls when you
complete this microgame.
----------------
Plane and Simple
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Tug-Of-War
Objective: Plane the wood!
Variations:
Level 1 - Short amount of wood.
Level 2 - Medium amount of wood.
Level 3 - Large amount of wood.
Strategy: Pull the Wiimote toward you, then foward and back again until all the
wood is planed. The later stages have more wood to plane so do it
faster.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Level 1 are skiis, Level 2 are train tracks and Level 3 are the
rings of Saturn.
---------
Logged In
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Tug-Of-War
Objective: Saw the wood!
Variations:
Level 1 - Thin piece of wood.
Level 2 - Medium piece of wood.
Level 3 - Large piece of wood.
Strategy: Lower the Wiimote so put the saw to the wood so it doesn't bend and
move it back and forth to saw through it. You'll need to be quicker
in the later stages, but saw slower to begin with then speed up
otherwise you'll bend the saw.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The first level has a heart shape through the wood.
----------
Anchor Man
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Tug-Of-War
Objective: Play Tug-Of-War and win!
Variations:
Level 1 - One tug.
Level 2 - Two tugs.
Level 3 - Three-five tugs.
Strategy: Pull back on the Wiimote to tug the team over the line. Stage 3 is
tough as it takes at least 3 to do, so just keep tugging back and
forth quickly until you manage it.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------------------
Castanet, First Chair
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Waiter
Objective: Slap the Castanet (the Wiimote) in time!
Variations:
Level 1 - One note.
Level 2 - Two notes.
Level 3 - Three notes.
Strategy: Holding the Wiimote in your hand, slap the top it with the other
hand when the note passes through it. It does pick it up surprisingly
and be sure to do it firmly. You need to do it in time for the
later stages.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The notes turn into frogs if you pass, otherwise they will get
eaten by a snake.
-----------------
Meet The Eggheads
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Guide the boy egg to his parents!
Variations:
Level 1 - Linear maze.
Level 2 - Bendy maze.
Level 3 - Very bendy maze.
Strategy: Point the Wiimote at the boy egg to assume control of him, and
slowly guide him through the maze. If you touch the normal sizes
you lose control, and if you touch the jaggied edges then you fail.
Take your time and have a steady aim.
Obstacles: Jaggied edges.
Other notes: The screen colour changes as you near the jaggied edges, a helpful
warning.
--------
Pink Eye
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Elephant.
Objective: Destroy all the white enemies!
Variations:
Level 1 - Single line of enemies.
Level 2 - Two lines of enemies.
Level 3 - Three lines of enemies.
Strategy: Point at the enemies to take them down with the laser. They are
destroyed on contact so just sweep the screen quickly to take them
all down.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The higher the level, the more kids you rescue.
------------------
Geared For Landing
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control.
Objective: Rotate the gears to open up the bridge for the plane!
Variations:
Level 1 - Single plane.
Level 2 - Chance of a fake plane.
Level 3 - Chance of a fake plane.
Strategy: With the Wiimote, move it in a circle (still pointing toward the
screen) clockwise to move it up and anticlockwise to move it
down. When you see the plane, quickly move the bridge so it can
get though. With levels 2 and 3 there is a chance of a fake plane
which very quickly appears, and then backs out again so if you do
see plane that quickly then wait for the other one to arrive before
moving, otherwise you'll have more ground to cover.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------
This Bites!
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Elephant
Objective: Move out of the way of the insects, otherwise you'll be bitten!
Variations:
Level 1 - One insect.
Level 2 - Two insects.
Level 3 - Three insects.
Strategy: Point the face from side to side across the pillow, as long as you
don't stop the insects won't have a chance to land.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
---------------
Suit of Armoire
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Find the item in the drawers!
Variations:
Level 1 - One item to choose from.
Level 2 - Two items to choose from.
Level 3 - Three items to choose from.
Strategy: Items will appear above the drawers, however only one will actually

and your self-created Miis.

Objective: Sweep the ice to get the curler to the target!
Variations:

Pose: The Tug-Of-War
Objective: Clean up the mess with the vacuum cleaner!
Variations:
Level 1 - Small mess.
Level 2 - Medium mess.
Level 3 - Large mess.
Strategy: Strange mix of using the pointer and moving the Wiimote here; point
the Wiimote at the screen at all times and move the Wiimote back
and forth to clean up the mess. Do simple clean sweeps to get all the
rubbish.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The mess is in fact leaves and such, giving a double meaning to
the game's name, Spring Cleaning.
--------------

Pose: The Tug-Of-War
Objective: Hit the Volleyball back off the net.
Variations:
Level 1 - Long time to react.
Level 2 - Short time to react.
Level 3 - Little time to react.
Strategy: Follow the ball's position and point across the screen to move the
palms so it bounces off them and back over. As long as you connect
with the ball, you pass. Later you have less time to react as the
ball is placed to you quicker, just be sure to keep pointing at the
screen and not move the remote around.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------------
Clean Your Plate!
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Waiter
Objective: Clean the plate by washing the water over it!
Variations:
Level 1 - One spot of dirt to clean.
Level 2 - Two spots of dirt to clean..
Level 3 - Three spots of dirt to clean..
Strategy: Tilting the plate makes the water wash down it in that direction,
so if the dirt is on the left side, tilt it left. Later stages has
more dirt in different places; aim in the centre of the dirt to
get it cleaned quicker.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-------------
Smile And Nod
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Elephant
Objective: If the question is correct, nod with the Wiimote!
Variations:
Level 1 - Different Question.
Level 2 - Different Question.
Level 3 - Trickier, Different Question.
Strategy: Read the question carefully and if it's true, then nod, otherwise
just stay still. Questions are about you and the date, for example
'Is NAME Male?', 'Is it 2PM'?, 'In 9 years, will it be 2032'? and
so on. Due to that nature of the questions there are no definate
answers, so just quickly work it out. You have some time to think
about it, so do so.
Obstacles: No.
Other notes: This microgame is in the form of a quiz show, featuring your Mii.
-----------------
Junk And My Trunk
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Elephant

seconds!

Level 2 - Five Blocks.
Level 3 - Six Blocks.
Strategy: Move the Wiimote left and right as the blocks fall, and position
them side by side or on top of one another. Make sure there are no
gaps so they are stable, and look ahead to make sure you can safely
accommodate the next piece. Easiest way to play is to make them all
straight and flat, as levels 2 and 3 have triangular pieces that need
putting on.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Named after the band 'Bloc Party', surely? There is also a
Minigame based on this once you have done it in the Character
Mode.

==============
Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Discard
This is where you put the Wiimote down and pick it up at the right time.
Although it tells you face down, *most* of the time this doesn't matter,
and also you can just face it down in midair and hover it, then move it
(if you haven't got a surface nearby). Just have your hand by the Wiimote
ready to pick it up however.
The Thumb Wrestler
Hold it upright with your thumb over the sensor. Like the Umbrella, but
you need to have your thumb at the top. The microgames aren't that
different, mind.
The Big Cheese
Requires to you have your Wiimote at your side. This includes using a
hola hoop and flapping your arms to fly. Can be cheated with though by
just holding it in front of you and replicating the same actions.

For Level 3, just shoot the robot in the torso until it falls back
off the shelf.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: There is a minigame based on this. If you like this, there is also
a similar shooting game on the Wii Play package. I don't work for

use that to help you get your score.

Objective: Swing your arms and march along with the others!
Variations:
Level 1 - One stop.
Level 2 - Two stops.
Level 3 - Two stops, slightly faster pace.
Strategy: Swing your arm to move the character, and stop to well, stop.
Try and remain in the middle of the group to avoid collision (which
will fail you). You can move when you need to stop if you want to
get more centralised. If you don't fancy moving your arm then just
swing the Wiimote in front of you.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
--------------

Level 1 - One ball on the table.
Level 2 - Two balls on the table.
Level 3 - Several balls on the table.
Strategy: Just thrust the Wiimote forward to hit the cue into the white ball,
to send it into the ball. All of them start off exactly as they
should be so unless you move it just jerk it onward. Later levels
have you hitting the balls together to make a chain reaction to
get one in, so add a bit of welly to see that end ball potted.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
-----------------
Secret Ingredient
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Thumb Wrestler
Objective: Grate the items!
Variations:
Level 1 - Small object.

Pose: The Discard
Objective: Take away your burger when it's done!
Variations:
Level 1 - Small burger.
Level 2 - Larger burger, thrown ingredients.
Level 3 - Very tall burger, thrown ingredients and people distracting.
Strategy: Just observe the burger until the bun appears and lift up the
Wiimote to take it away. It's pretty easy. However later levels
have distractions such as items being thrown across and people
walking past, but just concentrate on that bun appearing and quickly
grab it. Also watch out for the thin orange segments that are
coloured like buns, look out for that distinctive shape.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Various ingredients include Front, Wiimotes and whole fishes.

==============
Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Mohawk
Hold the Wiimote with both hands just above your head with the front
pointing toward the TV screen. Most of these have you moving your body
(such as doing squats), aiming, or stabbing down from this top position.
Like many of these whacky poses, this one can be faked by just holding
it in front of you and replicating the same movements.
The Dumbbell
Hold the Wiimote in one hand to it's side, so it's facing to the right.
Games require you to move the Wiimote up and down, or sometimes across.
The Janitor
Hold the Wiimote upright so it faces you, and with two hands like a
broom. The same as the Umbrella but with two hands.

Other notes: The second level person is really a witch, and the third level
sweeper gets taken out by a hawk at the end. Haha.

still at the top of the screen for some reason.

but vertically up). For the second stage wait until the spikeball
has passed before heading, and for the third stage the ball will hit
a defender on the way which will speed it up toward the end.

outcome of you passing this microgame or not.

Pose: The Mohawk
Objective: Dodge the fireballs!
Variations:
Level 1 - One fireball.
Level 2 - Two fireballs.
Level 3 - Three fireballs.
Strategy: Tilt the Wiimote to the sides to dodge the fireballs. It's a lot
easier to concentrate on their shadows for their positions otherwise
it's hard to tell where they are further up the screen. This is
handy for the first one, when they are quite close together.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Your Mii's head is on top of the spring.
------------
Femme Brulee

too long and burn you fail!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Couldn't they just wear sunblock?
----------------

Strategy: Using the Wiimote to control the spoon point it left and right into
the path of the powder falling down. When you have some in the tip
move it above the container and tilt it to drop it in. The latter two
stages are containers that are thinner, so place it right before
tilting. You just need one drop of the powder in order to pass.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: We can only assume the first is sugar, the second fish food, but
what of the third? Arsenic?
------------------
Stick A Fork In It
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk
Objective: Stab the food with the fork!
Variations:
Level 1 - Table moves slowly.
Level 2 - Table moves quickly.
Level 3 - Table moves very quickly.
Strategy: Stab the Wiimote down from straight on to horizontal (facing the
screen) to stab the fork into the food. The table moves, but it will
stop at around the food. This includes level three, although it will
stop just before the food, but when it moves again it will be slow
at the point when the food passes so you can easily get it in time.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Food includes steak, cake and iced buns.
-------------------
Armed And Dangerous
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Dumbbell
Objective: When the arm wrestling match!
Variations:
Level 1 - Slight struggle.
Level 2 - More struggle.
Level 3 - Plenty of struggle.
Strategy: Move the Wiimote across to the side to pull the hands across.
Put it down to the far side and if you haven't won, keep putting it
back and forth quickly until you do win. On the later levels, the
opponent will put up a bit more of a fight.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: You play as your Mii, with your other self created Mii's as
your opponents!
---------------------
BOSS STAGE: Boot Camp
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk / The Elephant
Objective: Complete the assault course and defeat the enemy!
Variations and Strategy:
Level 1 - Short Assault Course, offenseless boss.
Level 2 - Long Assault Course, offensive boss.
Level 3 - Long Assault Course, offensive and closer boss.
Strategy - For the Assault Course, you have to either dodge or jump the wooden
frames. When there is just the frame then jolt down to duck or
if it's solid then you have to jolt up to jump. Note if it's
several slats tall then jump earlier to clear it in time. On the
second and third levels you'll have to do an additional section
from the side, although the controls will remain the same.
For the Boss, you have to shoot at the nostrils. The first level
will shoot no projectiles, where as the second and third levels will
out of the nostrils. Keep firing toward them and any that get close
enough to you then fire at them to save your bacon. Level three's
boss will get close to you so you need to have faster reactions.
Keep on aiming at the nostrils until the nose is destroyed.
Obstacles: Wooden Slats, Projectiles.
Other notes: This game continues the series' strange fascination with the nose.

Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Finger Food
Hold the Wiimote on it's side between your thumb and finger, with the tip
still facing the screen. It's named because you pose like you would when
picking out finger food. Almost all of these involve you rotating the
Wiimote to the sides, like for unlocking doors with a key.
The Boxer
Hold the Wiimote in one hand to it's side, so it's facing to the left.
This is the same as The Dumbbell but facing the other way.
The Mortar and Pestle
Hold the Wiimote in your right hand vertically and hold the bottom with
your left. This is mostly so it's stablised and doesn't move the Wiimote
around, as an example microgame includes holding it like a joystick.
==========
Microgames
==========
--------------

Objective: Unlock the door with the key!
Variations:
Level 1 - Turn the key 90 degrees.
Level 2 - Turn the key 180 degrees.

the door.
-------------

Level 2 - Shred the pasta sheet.
Level 3 - Shred the block of ice.
Strategy: Facing the Wiimote left, rotate the Wiimote around toward and away
from you to operate the shredder and keep going until it's all
shredded up. The later stages have you shredding larger objects
but just keep it up until it's done.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: A goat eats the paper, the pasta turns into spag bol and the
block of ice turns into some sort of fishy meal.
-------------
Mixed Signals
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mortar and Pestle
Objective: Move the arial to tune in the TV signal!
Variations:
Level 1 - Least adjustment.
Level 2 - Some adjustment.
Level 3 - Most adjustment.
Strategy: Move it quickly to see if it clears, then fiddle around that area
until it fully clears up. The later stages require you to be most
accurate, so find the area quickly so you can have more time to
fine turn the signal.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The images awaken or change once you get the signal, such as the
level two bird coming out of the screen.
-------------
Yes, You Can!

Variations:
Level 1 - Nearly open already.

straight with it.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
----------

Pose: The Mortar and Pestle
Objective: Stir the solutions!
Variations:
Level 1 - Grind the herbs!

Pose: The Boxer
Objective: Clean up the objects!
Variations:
Level 1 - Clean the Cow.
Level 2 - Clean the Car.

so readjust. The polar bear will turn his head to the left side
when talking so watch out for that, and keep up with the old ladies
movements.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The baseball player will sometimes dedicate his homerun to you. :)
The old ladies comment is also perhaps the funniest in the game,
I won't spoil it but it's priceless!

to read it and if it hasn't gone down by then, shake and read again.
You need to finish by reading it, so regardless of how much you
done always read it by when the time runs down.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The bed ridden bloke will have one, two or three thermometers in
his mouth according to the level.

Strategy: Use the pointer to grab the zip and move across the screen to
complete it. Level 2 has you doing the Finger Food pose in order to
do it (otherwise it won't grab on) and level 3 has a zig zag zip,
where it's easy to let go when turning so take your time.

Other notes: You zip up a man in a panda suit, a boy's mouth and a scar on
Frankenstein's head.

-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Defend your goal against the pucks!
Variations:
Level 1 - Defend against one puck.
Level 2 - Defend against two pucks.
Level 3 - Score a goal.
Strategy: Using the Wiimote pointer, bat away the oncoming pucks. However hit
them away gently otherwise they will just rebound back at you really
quickly and make your job harder. The third level has you scoring
a goal with the puck, which isn't too tricky, just whack it hard
so if you do miss you can have another shot or two on the rebound.
Just don't score an own goal.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
------------
Cranky Robot

Pose: The Finger Food
Objective: Wind up the robot to power it up!
Variations:
Level 1 - One rotation.
Level 2 - Two rotations.

Strategy: Move the Wiimote toward the screen to throw a shuriken down the

closer, around every half a second (level three is around quarter of
a second) so when he lands on a tree, throw one and you should hit
him when he next comes out.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The 'ninjas' are more bankers than anything. The title is also
a play on the word Shuriken.
-----------------
Burning Sensation
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Burn the germs with the magnifying glass!
Variations:
Level 1 - One germ.
Level 2 - Two germs.

tilt the glass which is required for level three when the two
germs are on the wall.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.

Pose: The Finger Food

Level 2 - Two turns to light the cooker.
Level 3 - Three turns to light the cooker.
Strategy: With the Wiimote pointing toward the screen and facing left, rotate
it anticlockwise 45 degrees to turn the gas nob. As it's an old
cooker it requires multiple turns for it to actually work, so keep
turning back and forth until it comes on. Later levels require more
turns.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Turning it on burns different things held above the cooker.
----------
Hit Parade
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mortar and Pestle

Strategy: With the Wiimote upright, you hit to down to the left right or
toward you to hit the hammer over the holes. When the enemies appear
whack them to take them down. The enemies increase for each level.

once you have taken out two enemies, the other hole must have that
last enemy.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The Moles from Super Mario World pop out and give you a thumbs
up for completing this microgame.
---------
Litterbot

Objective: Collect all the waste barrels!
Variations:
Level 1 - Three stationary barrels to collect.
Level 2 - Two stationary and one moving barrel to collect.
Level 3 - Two stationary and one moving barrel to collect, plus a van.
Strategy: With the Mortar and Pestle pose you use the Wiimote like a joystick
to control the robot, so approach the barrels in front of you to
pick them up. Levels two and three have barrels that are rolling
away (pick these up last anyway) and level three only has a van
heading across the area, which will knock you over if you touch it
so avoid!
Obstacles: Van (level three only).

----------------------------------------
Pose: The Boxer
Objective: Have a sword fight with the vegetable bandit!
Variations:
Level 1 - Banana Bandit (with help arrows)
Level 2 - Strawberry Bandit
Level 3 - Blueberry Bandit
Strategy: Hold the Wiimote upright yet facing left to hold the sword up. In
first person you must defend against the on coming attacks and
then strike when the time is right. Just tilt the controller to the
sides to move the sword, as the enemy will come from either the left
right or centre. Whatever position of the screen they are in is the
position there attack will be, so just move your sword there in
preperation. Later levels won't have help arrows and you'll need
fast reactions. Eventually the swords will clash and you'll be told
to Push! to push toward the screen to knock them back and
slash vertically at the screen to end the battle.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: I think the third one is the blueberry bandit, couldn't quite make
out what fruit it was. One of the funniest boss battles.

enemies widen, but just go to the extreme edges and as long as you
reach the finish line you'll pass (you don't have to go over the
middle section).
Obstacles: Spike enemies, black holes.
Other notes: From Clu Clu Land (1987, NES).
---------------
Sifty Character
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Sift the sand through the sieve to free the object!
Variations:
Level 1 - Little sand to sift through.
Level 2 - More sand to sift through.
Level 3 - Lots of sand to sift through.
Strategy: Shake the Wiimote from side to side to sieve the sand out the bottom
until it's all one. Later levels has more sand so do it quicker and
more vigorously.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Objects found include a Nintendo playing card, an original
Game Boy, and a Virtual Boy.
--------------------
BOSS STAGE: Starwing
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Chauffeur
Objective: Play stages from Starwing; head through the stage and defeat the
boss!
Variations:
Level 1 - Planet Corneria.
Level 2 - Outer space level.
Level 3 - Ice Planet.
Strategy: To play, hold the Wiimote with the pointer facing left and tilt it
from side to side to move left and right, and up and down to
more up and down (simple eh?) as well as either A or B to shoot.
Level One has you going through the opening planet of Starwing,
Corneria, so just dodge the buildings and keep shooting to take down
enemies (just so they are out of the way but just aim to get to the
end of the stage). The boss is none other than R.O.B with a NES
Zapper! Wait until he stops shooting and shoot at the green block
to his side until he is destroyed.
Level Two is in outer space, where you must dodge plenty of
crosses and lines in order to reach the boss. Stick to one of the
extreme sides of corners is easiest as there is minimal obstacles
but you still need to move now and again, and only go after enemies
if they are in your way. The boss is R.O.B again with this time with
a red and green block; just take your time and stay low to avoid
his shots. The blocks will turn grey after a while where you cannot
shoot them so just wait until they are flashing colours again before
having another pop.
Level Three is at an ice planet, where you have giant ice blocks
in your path. Stay at the top of the screen as they thin out toward
the top and make it easier to get through. The enemies are a bit
tougher too, with flyers appearing in the passages and tall walkers
in the way (you can shoot the flashing diamond several times to kill
them but it's far easier just to ignore). After a long ish stage,
R.O.B comes back one last time with four blocks (yellow and blue at
the back now) so dodge his shots until they become active (stay low)
and then let rip.
Obstacles: Enemies, buildings and blocks.
Other notes: From Starwing (SNES, 1993). Note this is called Starwing in the
UK due to copyright reasons, so in the US and Japanese versions
this is probably called Star Fox.

Level 1 - Thin Wario.
Level 2 - Fat Wario.

Strategy: Point the Wiimote at the screen to control the stethoscope, and
Wario will nod more the closer you get to the injury. Use the rumble
as well as a guide to show you are getting close, and when you are
there the game will end. It gets harder in later levels as he gets
more fat, so find the approximate area and search around that.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.

Objective: Tap the box to defeat your paper opponent!
Variations:
Level 1 - A few taps to defeat the opponent.

knock them over. If you take a break your opponent will knock you
over to just keep going at it.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: You play in different arenas each level. I bet this is one game
that you got stuck on right? I know it took me a short time to
figure out was going on.

Level 3 - Thin pin.
Strategy: Holding the Wiimote to the side and facing you, swing it down

Strategy: Tilt the Wiimote left and right to shift falling creatures into
either cold (left) or warm (right) habitats. Most of them are
straight forward such as seals and cacti however the crab may
catch you out. This is bright red and should go in the cold habitat
and not to be confused with the scorpion which goes in the warm.
Later levels means more creatures to sort.

Other notes: I've put two puns in this game's description, can YOU spot them?!
-------------

Variations:
Level 1 - Bow when instructed.
Level 2 - Bow and stand when instructed.
Level 3 - Bow and stand along with everyone else.
Strategy: With the Wiimote facing the screen, tilt it forward to bow to the
crowd, and for the second and third levels stand up by tilting back
when you need to. The third level has no instructions, so just go
along with everyone else to the sides.
Obstacles: None.

Pose: The Umbrella

arse to waving the Wiimote around from side to side. Otherwise,

out your arm you must keep moving like show on screen. Later levels
have you doing more complex moves and at a much faster pace.
Obstacles: None.

Strategy: With the nunchuk being the hour hand and the Wiimote the minute hand

image, so you right his left, but you are mirrored.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The third level has you juggling a fish! You can also throw it
more than required but you only need to do it one, two or three
times to pass (as the fish won't leave the screen in time for you

Level 3 - Island out of the way.
Strategy: With the controllers facing in on one another, fan them to start

Strategy: Keep you controllers raised at all times until one of the boxer's
arms drops and punch at that side to open him up, and punch away
until his guard is raised again. Keep doing his until he's finished.
The only difference with the later boxers is that they attack more,
so just keep your guard and when they rest or power up a shot (put
their wrist back) quickly punch. You just need to be patient here.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: None.
===============================================================================
-----------------
4. MINIGAMES
-----------------
===============================================================================
There are a total of six minigames to unlock as you play through the Single
Player mode. Here is how to get them all, and a description and guide through
each one -
Tower Tennis - Complete Kat & Ana's Microgames
Block Star - Complete Young Cricket's Microgames
Can Shooter - Complete Ashley's Microgames
Tortoise & Hare - Complete Orbulon's Microgames
Balloon Trip - Complete Dr Crygor's workout stage
Pyoro S - Play every microgame from every character
------------
Tower Tennis
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - Remote Control / Sketch Artist
Objective - Bounce the ball up the tower!
Strategy - Keep bouncing the wall with the bat, holding it as straight as
possible to go up. Blocks will get in the way, with grey blocks
destroyed in one hit of the ball, beige two hits and orange three
hits. You need to accommodate room for the bat as well so if two
blocks are next to one another then destroy them both so you can
get through. Tilting the bat will bounce it to the side if you need
to. Later, enemies will appear in the background which must be
avoided.
----------
Block Star
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Waiter
Objective - Stack the blocks and hold them for 3 seconds to clear the stage!
Strategy - Hold the Wiimote flat and facing the screen (The Remote Control is
easiest) and move the Wiimote left and right as the blocks fall, and
position them side by side or on top of one another. Make sure
there are no gaps so they are stable, and look ahead to make sure
you can safely accommodate the next piece. Easiest way to play is to
make them all straight and flat. Stage descriptions coming in the
next version!
-----------
Can Shooter
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Remote Control
Objective - Shoot the cans and stay alive! A or B to shoot.
Strategy - Shoot the cans and projectiles to earn points, and hitting them
in the centre will net you more points (100 compared to 10).
Missiles and dynamite will be thrown at you which if you don't
get in time take you out and it's game over, so get them quickly
(you also get more points for getting them early). There are also
powerups - Heart Cans which add between 5 and 8 seconds (again,
depending how early) and the Crosshair Can which makes your Cross
Heir large, targeting several things at a time and for the best
accuracy - so if you target three cans you get 300 points as it
counts as hitting the centre. The final powerup is the Slow Mo Can
which slows down the action for a short amount of time.
Other Notes - The backgrounds change every few thousand points.
---------------
Tortoise & Hare
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Diner A.
Objective - Follow the Commands as long as possible! Connect the Nunchuk.
Strategy - Hold the controllers out to the sides and follow the flag commands
such as White Up (raise the Nunchuk) and Red Not Down (don't move
that Wiimote!). If you don't do it in time you fail! See how far
you get.
Other Notes - Move suddenly and with a lot of motion so the game can
catch your movements with more accuracy.
------------
Balloon Trip
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Big Cheese
Objective - In this 3D rendition of Balloon Fight, fly as far as you can and
earn points. Uses both the Wiimote and Nunchuk.
Strategy - Flap the controllers to fly across the stage. Flapping one turns it
that direction. The aim is to get points, so aim for the balloons
but not if it's risky ie. near a spark or the water (fish will
eat you up good). A balloon is worth 10 points and getting 10
balloons gives you a 100 point bonus. If you fly 1000 yards you get
a bonus, plus popping enemies balloons nets you more bonus points.
-------
Pyoro S
-----------------------------------------
Advised Pose - The Remote Control
Objective - In this side scrolling shooter, defeat enemies and earn as many
points as you can! Press A or B to stick out your tongue and
tilt to aim left or right.
Strategy - Hit enemies with your tongue will net you 10 points, with hitting
a line in one go will release an apple with 100 points. Hitting a
flashing line of enemies gives you an orange, which adds Mini
Pyoro's either side that help you get more points. The giant
nest a little way in can be used to bat away more enemies if you
hold out your tongue. Be sure to get the oranges whenever you can
as usually a torrent of insects follow it. Later you also face
flying pointing insects from the sides of the screen which fire
projectiles so take them out quickly! Eventually the stage will
reset once you get far enough.
===============================================================================
------------------------
5. MULTIPLAYER MODES
------------------------
===============================================================================
Once you fully complete Single Player (defeat all the Elephant stages)
multiplayer is unlocked. These are basically random minigames with one remote
where up to 12 people can play!
Survival - Complete Thrilling Mode (Elephant Stages).
Darts - Complete Thrilling Mode (Elephant Stages).
Bomb - Play Survival.
Lifeline - Play Bomb.
Balloon - Play Lifeline.
Star Nose - Play Darts.
Bungee Buddies - Play Star Nose.
--------
Survival
-----------------------------------------
Players - 1-12
Objective - Survive as long as you can!
Strategy - As long as you win your game then you'll stay alive. Otherwise
you fall out of the sky and are out !
Other Notes - The Miis are represented as angels flying through the sky!
----
Bomb
-----------------------------------------
Players - 1-5
Objective - Win your games and pass the bomb to a player!
Strategy - A random player starts and is handed the bomb and must play a game.
Winning grants you who has the bomb next and what pose they must
have (but most be chosen within the time limit). Fail and you are
out! Levels increase gradually.
--------
Lifeline
-----------------------------------------
Players - 2-5
Objective - Players must play five games each and earn points by winning. After
the games each player is suspended above a croc filled river and
the more points you have the more ropes hold you up. The players
take it in turns to cut ropes however they might cut your own!
The person who stays alive the longest wins.
Strategy - Get as many points as you can to stand a chance but as to the rope
cutting it's random, so good luck!
-------
Balloon
-----------------------------------------
Players - 1-5
Objective - Fill the balloon with air between turns - if it pops you're out!
Strategy - Before microgames you have to chance to pump the balloon. Do this
if you like especially at the start but don't when it starts to fill
the screen as completing a game will fill the balloon for you.
If you lose the microgame you have to play once more and if the
balloon pops on your turn, you're out!
-----
Darts
-----------------------------------------
Players - 1-4
Objective - Count down from 301 to 0 first to win!
Strategy - Throw darts at the board until you reach 0. Hold the Wiimote in the
Sketch Artist pose (above and holding with your finger and thumb)
aiming and then jerking it forward to throw. Start by aiming for
high points such as 25 / 50 (center) or 60 (triple 20, red line
closest and straight above the bullseye). Once you get close
then you have to get exactly 0, otherwise you'll be bust and you
have to take your last go again until you do it. First player to
reach 0 wins.
---------
Star Nose
-----------------------------------------
Players - 2
Objective - Collect three pieces of fruit to win!
Strategy - Players control either the nunchuk or Wiimote and guide it down
the passage, collecting fruit and avoiding the obstacles.
As the Nunchuk doesn't have a pointer you may need to move slightly
more for it to be recognised. First person to get three pieces
wins, or you'll win if the other player crashes.
--------------
Bungee Buddies
-----------------------------------------
Players - 2
Objective - Run the course and dodge the pitfalls! If one fails, the other
suffers! The further you go the better.
Strategy - With the nunchuk attached each player has a controller at there
hip, and you jerk it up to jump. You need to avoid pitfalls this
way, such as ditches and man holes. Falling down a man hole will
stop you, so jump out to continue. You can also eat food like cake
which will make you fly waaaay up the track and really help your
progress. After you finish you get a rank according to how well
you fared and a finishing move to complete.

---------------
Elephant Stages
---------------
Once you've completed Tiny Wario's games you start unlocking the Elephant
Stages in the upper right corner of the map. These are all the games in a
random order (bar those with the Nunchuk) and have different themes, such as
Sudden Death (level three, one life) and Thrilling (no clue as to what form
is next). To unlock the next one complete the required amount of games.
-------------------
Dr Crygor's Workout
-------------------
After completing 9 Volt's microgames, this is unlocked at the island in the
upper right corner of the map. You have to play through 20 microgames, where
all our movements are shown in calories and are totaled up. You get none
for not passing the microgame.
-------------
Staff Credits
-------------
Unlocked once you complete Tiny Wario's stage, you can control a hole with the
pointer on the Wiimote and make the Staff Mii's fall down! The total is added
up so watch as long as you can!
------------
Sound Studio
------------
Unlocked after playing completing Thrilling Mode (the Elephant Stage) this
allows you to play Music and Sound Effects. Each character has an album of
tunes that you can play or conduct (by swinging the remote) or Sound Effects
which are falling shapes that play noises when selected. You can also select
music to play as you do this (the three buttons on the left hand side).
----------
Pose Cards
----------
Once you have completed a character, if you replay and get past their boss
(even if you lose but as long as you have at least one life) then you will
get a random Pose Card. These are just stupid poses to collect and gives the
game more replayability. As they are random there is no exact walkthrough to
getting them so just keep playing the characters over until you get them all!
---------------
Mii Involvement
---------------
When you start the game, you have to create a profile with a name, an
assigned Mii and selected hand. Your assigned Mii will feature in several
Microgames, as well as others you have created. Here is a list of each
microgame that features a Mii, and in what way -
Wario
- Wario PI
One of the Images through the looking glass
Mona
- Toilet Training (BOSS STAGE)
Some of your created Mii's rarely make an appearance here!
Young Cricket
- The Outcast
Out of the 9 Mii faces, spot the odd one out.
- Smile And Nod
Your Mii features in a quiz show.
Dribble & Spitz
- Spring Training
Your Mii's head is on top of the spring.
- Armed And Dangerous
You arm wrestle your Wii against others you've created.
- Boot Camp (BOSS STAGE)
Your Mii will have to go through an assault course!
9 Volt
- Opening Night
If you finish the song, your Mii will bow!
Two of Mona's games feature the name you put in your profile, which are -
Mona
- Runner's High
Your name will feature on banners on the trackside.
- Closing Time
Your name will sometimes appear above the shop, as 'NAME's Market'.
