We only have a couple of weeks left until WarioWare: Get It Together! launches on Nintendo Switch, so what better time to take another look at the game?
Nintendo has dropped a brand new overview trailer for Wario's latest outing, starring the man himself as the clip's narrator. Wario – voiced by the wonderful Charles Martinet, of course – talks us through some of the fast-paced minigames you'll be getting stuck into and the characters you'll meet along the way.
In fact, we received an email from Wario just a few moments ago. Here's what he had to say in Nintendo's latest press release:
"Me and the other chumps at my company put everything I could ever want into this game. It’s got a Story mode full of microgames where we all get sucked inside a video game. In the movie biz they’d call that a biopic. I like to call it a NOSE PICK! WUAHAHAHA!
For the first time, YOU control me and my friends using our absurd abilities to take on a rush of microgames. (It’s quite generous of me to share the spotlight.) I even let you play as my subordinates who are less attractive than me, like Jimmy T, Ashley and 9-Volt. You can play Story mode with your friends in both local and wireless co-op mode. There’s all sorts of gameplay to dig into, so you better bring a shovel!
There’s also Variety Pack, which is a competitive party mode for friends playing locally using the same system. You can compete in microgames, play volleyball and work together – or not! – with up to four players. Whether it’s a platformer, a strategy game or a battle royale, I wanna be the best!
Naturally, if you think you’re the best, throw your own biker hat in the ring with Wario Cup, a rotating weekly high score challenge. There’s even a Ranked Mode with an online leaderboard. Don’t confuse it with a rank odor, though. Leave that to me! WUAHAHA!"
If you're still on the fence about picking up a copy for yourself, you might want to consider Wario's final statement. "Remember – if you buy my game, everyone will surely love me the most! Who’s the popular one now, Mario? Me … WARIO! WUAHAHA!" Sold.
Remember that you can check out a free demo of WarioWare: Get It Together! right now.

I played the demo for five minutes and deleted it. Awful. Any elements that made the older versions fun have completely vanished, not sure what they were thinking with this release.
I'm getting this !! Love Wartio (though I have no idea why!) I prefer his 'traditional' outfit more though..he's a hunk
Just watching this trailer shows how much personality Wario has compared to most of Nintendo's other characters. Looking forward to picking this up eventually.
@Old-Red lol 5 minutes of a demo is enough for you to make that call?
I thought the demo was good fun enough that I'll be picking it up.
Really enjoyed the demo, can't wait for the rest of the game to expand on the few micrograms featured in the demo
I'm so hyped to play this!
Demo was great! This is the most crazy multiplayer game Nintendo has ever done. Can't wait to pick it up!
@theabstractart pretty much. I played though one round and was baffled why they thought using a controller to do all the mini games would be fun. What's the point in a novelty game if all the novelty is gone?
@Old-Red ??? The GBA/GameCube WarioWare only used controllers (D-Pad + A button), and that’s one of the best instalments, if not my favourite.
@Old-Red You can't have played the first Warioware game which controlled the same way. Great for those of us who can't stand motion controls and ditto the upcoming Mario Party!
@Clyde_Radcliffe @Markiemania95 fair enough, I guess it's just not for me then.
@theabstractart While I don't agree with @Old-Red, the purpose of a demo is for you to try and decide if it is for you or not.
Old-Red didn't like it, probably won't spend money on it, and I believe that is the job well done for the demo.
I would hate to waste money on a game that I won't enjoy playing.
@Old-Red
And which elements exactly are these?
It's super fun. At first I was sceptical but upon playing it with my nephew, I've decided to get it, no matter what)
I want to buy this game, but won't at launch. May be one of my Christmas games.
What's everyone's top score in the demo? I somehow managed to read 68 just now and it was going so fast my hands started sweating! What a rush!
This demo and the video have convinced me I need to buy this game.
Can’t stand this IP but Warioland is an awesome IP
I'm really excited to try out both the co-op and versus modes
This wasn't really on my radar, but now a day one after my kid and I couldn't stop playing the demo. Loved how the demo gives you a sense of progression by leaking out a couple of the new characters to keep you playing.
The demo isn’t just great… it’s exquisite! I put the demo in my top 10 list for this year.
I am getting this day one, even if it’s way overpriced.
The demo was fun, but I'll look at the reviews before getting it.
cant wait to get this game. controlling characters can make some microgames pretty hard (or easy) and im all for that challenge. i think im gonna get so much out of mastering the characters and their micrcogame matchups. microgames that were once disposably easy can now always keep you on your toes and that excites me
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme!!!
Goro Abe directed this game and he really "gets" Warioware... probably more than anyone at Nintendo. They make great games, but can be a little stuffy. Abe is a quirky dude and the series is his masterpiece.
@rockodoodle The physical is actually pretty cheap in my country (UK) but feels like one of those games I have to have in digital as it's good for short bursts without changing cart's you know?
@rockodoodle Good news for you, it's underpriced!
@Clyde_Radcliffe yeah….I think going digital is the way to go….
I really enjoyed the demo usually i try once and I'm done, but I kept coming back to this one.
I genuinely don't understand the appeal of this game
I’m getting this day one. Such an addictive game to pick up and play and even more fun with friends. I like the new character specific abilities they’ve brought in. I’d also like to see a wario world/land again one day. We just could use more wario…and fzero but that’s a whole other story.
The demo was so much fun! I think I am going to get the full game now.
