WarioWare: Get It Together! Demo Out Now! (Switch)

Seems like it'll be pretty mixed, but I have to say some of these really don't feel like they fit the score given with the text. But I have to call out Twinfinite with this quote: "WarioWare: Gold for the 3DS seemed to have better value with 100 more microgames, full voice acting, and a lower price tag." Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the vast majority of WarioWare Gold's microgames brought over from previous games? Wasn't it like a greatest hits type of thing with a smattering of new games? Or am I wrong there?
Yes, it can. It only uses buttons and joystick.
You're not wrong, much of the content in Wario Ware Gold was recycled.
Seems like if you liked the demo you're going to like this too, and I loved the demo so I'm probably going to have a blast.
It's funny because some of the more positive reviews seem to be just like that.
It seems very divisive in that regard, depending on whether you wanted motion controls or traditional controls.
Yay thanks for the reply! I looked on Nintendo's site and a couple of reviews, didn't see any mention of it. Happy to hear it's supported.
Yeah. Sure it would have been cool if they included Touch, HD Rumble or the IR Camera. But I'm already happy that I can play it with the Pro Controller (My hands aren't made for joycons) or that I can pick up and play it with friends.
In an ideal world, you could play with joycon like on Wii, with screen like on DS and with buttons like GBA.
But obviously it is impossible to design such a game.
We already had Touched that explored touch screen microgames (I guess we could have had mutlitouch games) and motion games were done in Twisted and Smooth Moves.
Changing what our input does (depending on the character) rather than revisting input methods with already experienced is a fresh take on the formula.

Looking at the Meta Critic score for Gold tells me that Wario Ware just isn't the type of series that'll still get in the high 80's on meta critic anymore.
Gold is legit one of the best in the series and people just shrugged it off. Same with this one it seems.

Gold's reception also saddened me, but when considering that:
A) As opposed to 3DS, Switch is still alive and kicking.
B) The demo was an immediate hit that successfully conveyed the game's depth/party potential.
I think we'll be seeing another sales success in the vein of the series' glory days -- with a little help from Switch's momentum.
Yeah not a fan of reviews that spend time criticising a game for not being something that it was never trying to be. "Previous Warioware games were launch titles that showed off the consoles unique features." Yeah. Ok. Is this game any good?
Demo impressions were overwhelmingly positive so I'm still looking forward to this, I guess ultimately it'll come down to how enjoyable the microgames themselves are - which is all too subjective anyway.

And if this had been more focused on being unique to the Switch we would have gotten the typical "why aren't there traditional controls" that Super Mario Party suffered. What a pointless critique lol.
...there's a 4 player mode?!
That's awesome! Jeez, way to bury the lead Nintendo. All the trailers I saw boast "you can also add a SECOND PLAYER" and "IT HAS A TWO PLAYER MODE!" so I always assumed it was only 1-2 players.
Sounds like 4 player is for certain mini games only. Story mode is 2 player
