Ok folks, here comes another series! It's not gonna have commentary, nor are the episodes going to be very long, but I need a break after my last series so...here's something that will keep me from getting the nerdy LP-making cravings, but with me still having a rest.

The game is: WarioWare: Smooth Moves for Wii!

If you liked Beat The Beat, then this one may be for you. It's not my favourite Wario Ware game, but I can't record DS games, so this one is all about accessibility on my part. There are a few particularly hillarious minigames to look out for, but I won't say which so you can decide which ones they are for yourselves.

While this game may seem simple, the timer makes it incredibly stressful. Especially once more forms start coming into play :/ . Also, the game starts with level 1 minigames, and ramps up the difficulty later on. Aaaand not all of the minigames will be shown in this playthrough. You have to keep playing the characters over and over and unlock them through luck (much like in Mario Party).

Anyways, let's get some proper info in this thread, shall we? It was made and published by Nintendo back in 2007. It's a minigame game, with no major story in itself (although there are some little bits of story played out right through).

I don't think there's much else for me to say really. Here's a link if you want more info before deciding on delving in (!beware of spoilers, even if the story isn't fantastic!):

I'll be starting this series with the opening tomorrow folks! It'll only last...1-2 weeks, so it's not gonna be long.

See you there hopefully :)
 
Ok, here's the opening to Smooth Moves!

http://youtu.be/h7_NvlqI5cs


2 episodes per day are incoming for 1-2 weeks! I feel like I'm repeating myself here, but this is gonna be as barebones as possible so that I can have a break. Shall see you tomorrow when we make a proper start! :)
 
Episode 1 - Wario

http://youtu.be/SnWmtV8mMnA


Hey there folks, here's episode 1! Wario's story has the whole start to this adventure, and has some of the only story in this game worth paying attention too (the others will just be filler and for the lols really).

Anyways, Wario's minigames are simple, but the time limits can still trip you up if your reflexes are really bad.
As for the boss of this set...is it really a boss? It's more like just a couple of flaps of your arm and you're done.

See you next time for Mona's set ;)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 2 - Mona

http://youtu.be/bAWOeYAFEew


And here comes the cheerleader! Poor quarterback doesn't even get a look-in :( , but y'know...at least he gets someone, right?
The minigames...ok, there are more baton forms than the remote control and thumb wrestler this time. Added to our collection are: Umbrella and Handlebar. You can probably get a sense of how this game gets tricky later on, once there are about 10? forms. Trying to fiddle your hands into the right positions with the speed ups and time limit getting shorter all the time. Frantic times!

As for the boss this time around...it's pretty easy again. Has anyone else needed the bog so bad that you go in the girls' toilets? No? Just me then...
 
Episode 3 - Kat & Ana

http://youtu.be/xWEOlPiEmM4


Hey there folks, this time around we check up on the mini-ninjas and see what trouble they're in! There may be some things about stuffed toys that are yet to be discovered...sneaky little creeps, they are!

Another couple of forms are added in this set, namely: The Sketch Artist, The Chauffeur and The Samurai. Samurai doesn't quite work, because you have to hold the wiimote differently to how the picture shows, and that makes some minigames tough to beat until you've played them a few times and figured it out.
That boss stage...still not all that interesting. Running over the animals and leaving a bloody mess on the windscreen would have been much more interesting :D

-----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 4 - Tower Tennis

http://youtu.be/5GPz4tlWIHo


Here comes the first of the extra minigames! Tower Tennis is really tough, as you'll see in the vid, and is a slightly different version of Super Breakout. Destroy those blocks and make it to the top of the tower! Just...watch out for the hand cramps that the sketch artist can cause! ;)

See you next time when we check out the next character's story :)
 
Episode 5 - Young Cricket

http://youtu.be/eXSvjpEia-4


Ok folks, it's time to introduce Young Cricket (and his master) to the series! A few new forms, including the waiter and elephant (one of my personal favourites), are added this time. The waiter is annooooooying to get into, when you are rushing. You barely have time to put the "baton" on your hand :p

Storywise, you've gotta love jumping on peoples' heads rather than queuing up. Wish it went without its consequences...

The boss is...interesting? Think Tetris mixed with those spinning plates that you can see at variety shows or whatever. Just gotta balance the board and don't let anything drop folks! Hard work when you're using The Waiter.

If you like the boss, look out for the next extra minigame!

--------------------------------------------------------

Episode 6 - Block Star

http://youtu.be/cawu2_ETRvY


Why hello again! Another extra minigame here, which is pretty fun. Block Star is basically tetris on a balancing board. Hold your form folks! Hold your form! :D
I play through 8/10 levels but...it doesn't change enough to keep it interesting. It's not worth seeing the last 2 levels I reckon.
 
Episode 7 - Jimmy T.

http://youtu.be/oGnpvTA6Gx4


Wooo! It's time for us to meet Jimmy T! He's the cool guy that we all wished we could be, until we grew up a bit and realised that he's probably a paedo.
His minigames are all a mixture of what we've seen so far, but his cinematics are by far the best to date. Poor cat :'(

As for the boss, which of the already played boss minigames will it be? Such a mystery :p

-----------------------------------------------------

Episode 8 - Ashley

http://youtu.be/57brYUiA200


Hey there peoples! This episode has the WarioWare regular Ashley returning! This little goth has trouble with her spells, so she decides to have some help from the most evil spellbook known to mankind...this can only go well lmao.

The new forms this time include The Thumb Wrestler, The Discard and The Big Cheese. They're really starting to stack up now, huh?

As for the boss...we build a burger. A bloody burger. I give up :/
 
Episode 9 - Can Shooter

http://youtu.be/437lt0vYcB4


Hey peoples, it's time for another extra minigame! Can shooter is just about shooting cans. What more is there to say? It's pretty addictive I guess, but I can't see myself going back to it.

--------------------------------------------------

Episode 10 - Dribble & Spitz

http://youtu.be/7AUTa5XG9Hk


And hello again! This is one of my favourite minigame sets, because the story and music are so good! Taxi driving seems so harmless but...sometimes you can get one of those weird customers, you know?

The new forms this time around are: The Dumbbell, The Mohawk and The Janitor. The Mohawk has to be one of the better forms, even if it's embarrassing as hell if anyone notices you doing it lmao.

As for the boss, it's by far the best one so far! Changing forms, attacking a giant nose...everything just works. It's better at higher levels but, it's alright on level 1 too :)

To Tomorrow Hill, taxi man!
 
Episode 11 - Penny

http://youtu.be/RoXxypI_iW4


Ok folks, it's time to meet Penny! It's a bit of a girly story, but the Doc from the other WarioWare games makes an appearence too, so it's not so bad. Who's gonna win the invent-off? :eek:

Our new forms this time around are: The Finger Food, The Mortar and Pestle as well as The Boxer. Neither of these are particularly interesting for me...I can't even think of anything to say about them :s

As for the boss, it's pretty great. The art style is interesting and the whole thing makes me think of Red Steel (ye olde Wii game), but while the sword fights didn't work in that game, they do in WarioWare :)

See you in episode 12!

-----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 12 - 9-Volt

http://youtu.be/Otf3nfmsCDU


And we are back once again for 9-Volt's minigame set! This is by far my favourite set, because of the whole theme: Nintendo games! Expect to see some Mario, Zelda, Pikmin, Animal Crossing and more!

There aren't any new forms this time, but considering the minigames are more interesting and fun, it doesn't matter one bit for me.

And the boss! Here comes F-Zero folks! Hope you enjoy ;)
 
Episode 13 - Jimmy P.

http://youtu.be/eyfFt5JD57Y


Those of you who saw the Jimmy T episode will know exactly what's coming here. Jimmy P's story is pretty much the same but with puppies...but there is a twist at the end!

The minigames are a mixture of some that we've seen before. There are no new minigames here!

The boss...which one could it be? The mysteries of life arise again! :D

------------------------------------------------------------

Episode 14 - Tiny Wario

http://youtu.be/849OWAsx0bw


And we are back to a more normal minigame set, which has the old minigames from Wario's as well as plenty of new ones! It's taken things up a gear (into level 2 in fact) but it's still not too tough.

The boss...oh wow the boss :D . I love this boss so much! The music, the dancing weirdos, the art style...everything! Hope you enjoy it too.

For some reason, the credits are at the end of this one too. Sort of. That doesn't mean that it's all finished though!

See you tomorrow when we move onto something optional and...actually pretty tough :)
 
Episode 15 - Orbulon

http://youtu.be/rWcXCDaUyP0


So, this minigame set introduces the nunchuk to the mix. Problem is, that the nunchuk doesn't work properly for half the minigames, so it's not great. Still, this is one of my favourite characters from the WarioWare series, with his toggle head, so it's all good.

The Diner is the new form this time around and it's split into 3 types. You'll be seeing plenty of that form with Orbulon :) . The boxing boss is pretty great...not that original though?

See you again!

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 16 - Tortoise & Hare

http://youtu.be/XxTQrIwjqlo


Ooook, so there's the last of the nunchuk minigames here, but it doesn't work properly no matter how many times I shake it. Failure :(
 
Episode 17 - All Mixed Up

http://youtu.be/XIRSJklPdLE


Woop, it looks like all the minigames so far have been thrown together for this set! We need to clear 30 minigames to unlock something new, which is pretty tough because of the speed it reaches.

Still, we make it and unlock the next set...

----------------------------------------------------------

Episode 18 - Dr. Crygor

http://youtu.be/X6PGnpCPTL0


It's time to lose some weight folks! Well...not really, but y'know. It's the last of the characters that we're gonna see, so make the most of it ;)
All the same minigames, but this time we get points depending on how long we take and stuff.

See you again...only 2 days left now! :)
 
Episode 19 - Balloon Trip

http://youtu.be/acVZeo-rZRg


Hey there folks, let's get some balloon trip on the go! It's the last extra minigame that we can play, but there'll be more...elephant buildings coming!
This minigame is pretty fun, though it's better in Nintendo Land. Still...there's no reason not to give it a go :)

--------------------------------------------------------

Episode 20 - Super Hard

http://youtu.be/JPJY7nXcd2s


Well, I'm sure you can guess what's coming here from the title lol. All the minigames are tough and at a higher level, but this is still easier than Sudden Death.
Meh, fun times :)

See you tomorrow for the last two episodes!
 
So far, this has been a pretty awesome LP, so great job! Also, I have really smooth moves:

Episode 21 - Sudden Death

http://youtu.be/q1P8eFTKZa8


Hey there folks, it's time to throw up the last two episodes for this series so...let's do just that! Sudden Death is by far the hardest set of minigames in Smooth Moves (as it should be so near the end).

You have 1 life, and 10 minigames to clear. I know that doesn't sound like much but...it took me a hell of a long time to finish this :/

See you for the last episode! :)

----------------------------------------

Episode 22 - Thrilling

http://youtu.be/6ILsVTWNUbE


Wooo, last episode is here! Thrilling is just a mixture of all the minigames at high speed and higher levels (I think?). We also play around with the sound system at the end, but I fail miserably so I just quit :lew:

Well I hope you enjoyed this series. It hasn't been as great (or as fun imo) as some of my other stuff, but y'know...I'll be starting a proper series tomorrow or Tuesday. Thanks for watching! :)

P.S. Carry on commenting or whatever if you like. The thread won't be closed or anything :)
