List of WarioWare Gold microgames

This page lists all the 316 microgames included in WarioWare Gold. Each microgame falls under a control scheme – "Mash", "Twist", "Touch" or "Blow" – and a genre – "Intro Games", "Sports", "That's Life", "Fantasy", "Nintendo Classics", "Mic", "Pop-Up", or "Anything Goes." Over 80% of the microgames in this game are from previous WarioWare games.

A microgame with an italic font lasts twice as long (16 beats).

Mash League

“You chumps ready to mash some stuff? You'd better be! Find the +Control Pad...and the A Button. You'll need those to squeeze out a win. Not hard enough for you? Some games just use this. Some, just this. Is that too much to handle? Now, then, make like a potato...and MASH!”
Wario, WarioWare Gold

Microgames in this league are played using buttons only. Some games use the  , others the  , and some of them use both. All microgames that use   also support   unless otherwise stated.

Intro Games

Wario's first set of Intro Games introduces the "mash" controls to the player. Wario is featured in all games in some form. All six regular microgames are played before the boss microgame. His intermission stage consists of him sitting on a chair and a jumbotron consisting of a crowd, the Mash League logo, a yellow stage, and yellow speakers. The number of lives is represented by garlic. When the player wins, Wario cheers. If the player loses, Wario falls, the league logo dangles, and the crowd on the jumbotron boos. When the player loses all their lives, Wario's background changes, the jumbotron shuts off, and the speakers blow out. After the player continues during the first playthrough, the background changes back to normal, the jumbotron turns back on and Wario gets back up.

Description

"I'm 9-Volt, and this is the second stage of the Touch League! I bet it's gonna be way more fun than what I'm doing—studying math. I'd rather be at home with my pet Fronk, or playing the Nintendo Classics games that I made for the tournament. Think of me when you're gaming like a pro!"

"Thanks to math wizard Fronk, math class isn't so scary anymore, but I'm still glad it's over! Now we can have some real fun playing my Nintendo Classics games." (second description)

Sports

Young Cricket & Master Mantis host the Sports set in the Touch League. 14 regular microgames are played before the boss microgame. Their intermission stage consists of them riding on a carousel horse and a carriage reveals the next microgame. The number of lives is indicated by horse heads. When the player wins a microgame, they ride with joy. If the player loses, they slip off the carousel and the horse heads show their "death" expressions while one falls off. When the player loses all their lives, Young Cricket & Master Mantis fall off of the carousel. If the player continues on the first playthrough, they will climb back on.

Ultra League

Microgames introduced in this league are played alongside games from the previous sets. In the first two stages, the boss microgames are always played on the highest difficulty level. The themes are as follows:

Dancing Team

The Dancing Team consists of Dr. Crygor, Mona, Penny, Jimmy T, Kat, Ana, Young Cricket, Master Mantis, Mike, and Fronk. Their microgames are incorporated into the bundle along with Mike's and Fronk's. Their intermission stage consists of them on the dance floor as silhouettes on the top screen. The bottom screen displays the silhouette of the next game's developer. The number of lives is represented by disco balls. When the player wins a game, the dance floor is lighted up and the characters celebrate. When the player loses, the characters fall on their backs (current microgame's host included), and a disco ball drops. 21 microgames are played before the boss stage. The speed increases by two semitones at microgames #7 and #15. Boss microgames are automatically on level 3 and cycle in this order: Punch Out, Toilet Training, Top Notch, Nail Call, Basic Training, Pro Bowling.

Description

"Jimmy T is back and ready to par-TAY! Up next we got the Ultra League. Get excited, 'cause we're gonna mix up the controls from the Mash, Twist, and Touch leagues! The Dancing Team's headin' over to Club Joe now with all their Sports and That's Life games... Fronk and Mike are going to be there too, and they got a few surprises up their sleeves. Ooooh yeaaah!"

"Yo! It's Jimmy! Thanks to you, Club Joe is the hottest spot in town. The Dancing Team's there all the time. Come check us out whenever you get a chance. We got all sorts of games, with Sports and That's Life themes. We got Mic and Pop-Up games too! All right..." (second description)

Potluck Gang

The Potluck Gang consists of Dribble, Spitz, 5-Volt, Ashley, Red, 18-Volt, 9-Volt, Orbulon, Mike, and Fronk. Their microgames are incorporated into the bundle along with Mike's and Fronk's. Their intermission stage consists of them playing a card game with a hidden card in the touch screen. The developer of the next game raises their hand when the card appears. The number of lives is represented by kabobs. When the player wins a microgame, everyone in the background cheers, and the card reveals the microgame's host. If the player loses, the screen gets dark, the characters fall on their backs, a kabob burns and drops, and the card reveals a mandrake. Boss microgames are automatically on level 3 and cycle in this order: One Hit Wonder, Crossing Guard, Sneaky Snatcher, Nose Dive, Super Mario Bros., Clawing for More.

The designs of the characters' cards are as follows:

  • Ashley - Purple card with magic patterns
  • 9-Volt - Blue card with + Control Pad patterns
  • Dribble - Red card with tire patterns
  • Orbulon - Pink card with space patterns
  • 5-Volt - Lime-green card with utensil patterns
  • 18-Volt - Yellow card with disc patterns
  • Mike - Orange card with gear patterns
  • Fronk - Green card with square patterns

Description

"Come join me, 5-Volt, for an extra special second stage of the Ultra League! I'm throwing a barbecue, and everyone's going to bring their favorite food. 9-Volt and Fronk have been drooling since yesterday! Join the Potluck Gang for some special games too, including some from the Nintendo Classics and Fantasy genres."

"I'm 5-Volt, and I'd love to invite you to join me, the Potluck Gang, and a sasquatch or two for another barbecue! We've got all sorts of games, from Nintendo Classics to Fantasy themed. I even brought my camera so we can remember this day forever!" (second description)

Microgames

Mike and Fronk have microgames that are exclusive to the Ultra League. The microgames are:

Mike

Mike's microgames are based around blowing on the microphone, like in WarioWare: Touched! They can be unlocked during the Ultra League stages, "Dancing Team" (Grape Aim, Make a Wish, and Thar He Blows) and "Potluck Gang" (Grape Aim, Hit the Gust, and Lung Capacity).

Name Image Origin Description Passing score
Grape Aim   Original, resembles Silent but Deadly from Touched! and I Hate Bananas from Twisted! "Shoot the grapes. With blow darts. Once the grapes are in the target. Blow with all your might." 15
Hit the Gust   Touched! "The mouse in the wind-powered car wants that cheese. Don't overshoot. Or he might get trapped." 25
Lung Capacity   Touched! "Imagine you are a trumpet. Blow one long note. The audience will inexplicably love it." 15
Make a Wish   Original "Blow away. The dandelion fluff. Do not be concerned if you see a butterfly. Just blow." 20
Thar He Blows   Twisted! "Continue to inflate this balloon. Until it pops. If you ran out of air. Take a breath. Recommence blowing." 15

Pop-Up

Fronk's microgames are, like in WarioWare: Twisted!, shorter than regular ones (except Tread Carefully). Referred to as Pop-Up microgames, they can be unlocked during "Dancing Team" (Answering Machine, Feed on Fronk, and Vicious Veggies), "Potluck Gang" (The Claw, Fronk Fishing, and Sliding Doors), and "Wario Deluxe" (Tread Carefully).

Name Image Origin Description Control scheme Passing score
Answering Machine   Original "Pick up the phone right away when it rings. The correct phone, that is." "Touch" 25
The Claw   Mega Microgame$! "Stop the crane at just the right spot to pick up a mini Fronk. Aren't they so cute?" "Mash" 20
Feed on Fronk   Twisted! "Spin the dolphin to feed it, and remember, it can eat with only one side of its body. Hold on! It appears I'M the main course?!" "Twist" 15
Fronk Fishing   Twisted! "Want to know what it's like to control gravity? Just tilt your system, and watch what happens to the water's surface." "Twist" 15
Sliding Doors   Original "Let's not overcomplicate things. Slide to open and close the door." "Touch" 25
Tread Carefully   Touched! "Save the mini Fronks from a perilous fate by blowing into the mic, or doing nothing at all!" None
or
"Blow"
30
Vicious Veggies   Twisted! "Help me protect Earth from danger with a single punch. I told you I was more than just an apprentice..." "Mash" 20

Anything Goes

These microgames are themed after Wario, and can be unlocked during the last stage of the Ultra League, "Wario Deluxe". All of Wario's introduction microgames are bundled together and automatically on level 2. Much like in Mega Microgame$, the theme of Wario Deluxe's microgames is called Anything Goes. His intermission stage consists of him wearing the pot and floating away on a balloon basket. After 10 rounds are cleared, Wario Deluxe gains electric powers and zaps the screen before each microgame and hides the style hints, but only Wario's introduction microgames are played at this point. After four of these microgames are cleared, Lulu appears to pop most of the balloons with her arrows and start fighting with Wario Deluxe, and the style hints return. The number of lives is represented by gold bars. When the player wins a microgame, the crowd cheers and the screen gets brighter. If Lulu is on screen at the time, she gives two fingers up as well. If the player loses, the screen darkens, the crowd boos, and a gold bar is smashed. If Lulu is on screen at the time, she gets upset. When the boss is defeated, all the balloons pop, except for one which Lulu floats down on, and Wario Deluxe falls as a result. When the player reaches the bonus stage during subsequent playthroughs, Wario Deluxe and Lulu stop fighting and stare at the player with sparkles in Lulu's eyes. When the player completes the bonus stage, Wario Deluxe throws Lulu off of him with his electric powers and flies off in the balloon basket. When the player loses all their lives, a different "Game Over" tune is heard, and Wario Deluxe throws Lulu off of him if she is on-screen at the time. If the player continues on the first playthrough, Wario Deluxe will say “Oh! Don’t know when to quit?”, and Lulu jumps back on Wario if she was on-screen at the time. Unlike his normal counterpart, Wario Deluxe actually wants the player to lose.

Demo microgames

The demo version of WarioWare Gold includes the three intro leagues from the full game, "Mash", "Twist", and "Touch", led by Wario as usual. However, the games in the demo version are collected from the various other leagues. Each of the three main leagues includes 6 microgames, same for the "Ultra" league that mixes all 18 microgames. Below is a list of microgames featured in the demo version, as well as where they appear in the full game:

Microgames that would have 8- or 16-beat time limits in all other modes in the game, have 28-beat time limits in WarioWatch. No 4-beat microgames can be selected.

  • Normal: The clock starts at 20 seconds (25 in Twist). Speeds in the table below apply. Speeds increase after every six regular microgames. A boss is played after every 18 regular microgames, with difficulty levels increasing after each boss as in the Story Mode.
    • Ultra: Two additional microgames can be picked, both of them "Blow". Bosses are played in rotation, but at the current difficulty level and speed, so that the order goes Punch Out first difficulty → Basic Training second difficulty → Pro Bowling third difficulty → Punch Out third difficulty high speed, and so on.
  • Close Shave: The clock starts at 6 seconds. Speed categories in the table below are disregarded, so any standard microgames can be selected at any time. All microgames are played at their third difficulties. No notifications are shown for Speed Ups. Bosses are never played.

SplitScreen

All 8-beat microgames can be picked, but none that are 4-beat, 16-beat or boss levels. This results in approximately 67 microgames being possible to get in Mash and approximately 193 microgames being possible to get in Ultra.

Arcade

Microgames included in the Misc. console souvenirs

 
Crazy Cars being played on the Nintendo 3DS souvenir

Three microgames in the Mash League appear in the same hallway as All Mixed Up, except the lion is gray, the room is purple, it does not have a score counter, and it uses the same jingles as Dancing Team.

The microgame modes are started by pressing the power buttons on the souvenirs. For every three microgames played, the modes alternate between adding Speed Up and Level Up. Level Up retains the existing speed in contrast to the Story mode and All Mixed Up. When getting a Game Over, the souvenir will turn itself off. The order of when the microgames are selected is randomized.

The microgames are controlled with the souvenirs' on-screen   button, making them Mash games that are played with Touch controls. The modes cannot be paused with the souvenirs'   buttons or the Pause button of the physical 3DS.
