It wasn’t long ago that I was stressing in my Go Vacation review that a sheer variety of minigames, activities, can be a massive draw in a game, but if those activities are sub-par, well, they can be a struggle to enjoy. The Yakuza series understands this, with a fantastically detailed supply of minigames and activities to indulge in every entry in the series.

The WarioWare series is a bit of a different breed to either of them, honestly. Instead of having a large variety of detailed, but smaller experiences, there are no minigames here. Instead, there are microgames – dozens upon dozens of them, and they are thrown at you with such speed and ferocity that you won’t even have time to notice that, most of them, are barely worthy of a GameJam entry. But that is absolutely the draw of WarioWare Gold. The games are so small, short, and simple, that the challenge isn’t in playing them, it’s in being able to complete them with speed and accuracy.
