This is Nintendo we're talking about. I'm not sure when they'll ever realize that.Quote:

Early impressions: Not as good, but much better than Touched.Quote:

These gimmicks are unnecessary, though.
The only way I play these games is multiplayer (aka, I only played the original on GameCube). They're fun, but hard to want to keep playing.
I picked up Twisted a few days ago. In about two hours I had already gone through all the character's stages. Right now I'm trying to play all the games in each chacter's set.
My impressions of Twisted are that I really like it and the ways it uses the senser is interesting, but I do wish there were some mini games in there that were like the Original Wario Ware games in addition to all these new motion ones.
I played the original Wario Ware for, easily, two years. After the original black and white Tetris, it is probably my most played portable game ever. I don't see that happening with Twisted and, well, I already sold off Touch on eBay after about two months of owning it.

Nintendo needs to get some downloadible Wario Ware going on for either Revolution or DS as soon as possible, yo.
I disagree. If Nintendo is going to make a sequel to Wario Ware, they pretty much have to rely on gimmicks because with the original, they took the concept about as far as it can go. There were plenty of repeat games in Wario Ware as it was because there's only so much you can do with one button and a d-pad in five seconds that can be learned and executed on the first try. The only way to really do new things with the series is to change the controller.Quote:

I agree, but it makes Nintendo money, and this is one series where gimmicks can actually make the experience more fun anyway. I mean, the entire thing is a gimmick.Quote:

I found Twisted at TRU but no luck with Touched.
