#70 WarioWare Touched! (DS, 2004)


I ranked my Top 10 favorite Nintendo series awhile back, and WarioWare checked in at #2, so a game from there was bound to show up sooner or later.

WarioWare gets so much more mileage out if its micro-game formular than it has any right to be. They ask to complete a simple task in a matter of seconds, and then you move on to the next one until you reach a longer and more complex boss(?) micro-game. Maybe if not for the out-there style and weird sense of humor, I would not have been as into the series, but every WarioWare game is addicting.

Touched lands on this list because it succeeded in being built around the DS's touch screen, dual screen, and microphone capabilities. This was the first game that I went out and bought after getting a DS for my birthday freshman year of high school, and I played this a ton during lunch and parts of classes. I have distinct memories of times when we had substitute teachers in my history class. I was dumb and had a hard time figuring out the best way to play the mic games, and I found out that making a turkey call worked for all of the mic games. My classmates did not mind and I hope knew what I was up to, but after a while, the substitute teacher had enough and yelled, "Who is making those turkey noises!"

I feel like if I got into the series for this first time now, I would like it even more as I do not play video games for more than an hour or two at a time, and these games are some of the best to play in short spurts.
