The presentation trailer was then translated into several languages and an American advertisement was also released. Finally, the game’s official European site has been updated with more details. We’ll update this article based on what Nintendo shares throughout the week and how much more information we find. First of all, here are the different videos:
As a reminder: WarioWare: Move It! appears two years after the previous part, Get it together!. This new episode was developed in collaboration with Clever systemsis the tenth part of the series and a true successor to WarioWare: Smooth Movementspublished on Wii in 2007. This is not obvious in the Western title, but is evident in the Japanese title. Super Dancing, made in Wariorefers directly to this, as in Japan it is called WarioWare: Smooth Moves Dance from Wario. Of course, this new game has its own story in a special mode. It will be possible to play this mode with a pair of Joy-Cons, or a second player can join the game with another pair of Joy-Cons to play the entire adventure as a duo. In this mode there are several levels consisting of various mini-games that are selected randomly and depending on the associated character. For example, Wario’s classes require you to imitate the Tchou Chou pose. Therefore, to progress through the stages, you must successfully complete the mini-games but also face bosses.

WarioWare: Move it! will contain more than 200 mini-games that feature a more traditional gameplay style while using the motion controls of the Joy Con similar to Wii controllers. This episode will therefore only be playable in television mode and tabletop mode. Portable mode is not compatible as it requires Joy-Con to play. Some of the mini-games in Move It! will be completely new. For example, we have to cut down bamboo, catch fish, lay eggs and much more.
In this new game we will of course find many characters that have already appeared in previous WarioWare games. We are promised even more crazy mini-games that will be playable individually, up to two or up to four. Given that Move It! will focus primarily on the To know of movements Since the mini-games require different poses, you must therefore be careful to hold the Joy-Con controllers correctly and move correctly to enjoy the mini-games that will soon follow. Each mini-game requires you to reproduce a specific pose and then perform the correct action shown on the screen. The goal will be to react quickly and well to achieve victory every time. Some mini-games will be directly based on other Nintendo titles, such as: Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Super Mario 64 DS, Nintendogs And Super Mario Bros. 3. There will also be all sorts of references, such as the singer trio from rhythm paradise who appear in the opening sequence. Here are some examples of mini-games:
- Tchou-Tchou pose – locomotive : Move your arms back and forth like the pistons of a steam locomotive!
- Cocorico Pose – Super Mario Bros. 3 : Swirl your tail to reach the safe spots!

The game will also have one Fashion Fiesta where up to four people can compete against each other on site. The mini-games follow one another in a board game with WarioWare-style rules and multiple scenarios.
After successfully completing all stages in Story Mode, a new map will appear with additional stages. Special rules apply to these stages. Some of them were presented by Nintendo:
- Mega muscle play : Help Cryor train by playing mini-games!
