Wario Wii: It's All About "Block Star"

 

Dsc01855

I got Wario Ware Smooth Moves for Wii this morning, and quickly got to this one boss stage where you had to catch blocks on a moving platform that you steadied by holding the controller in your hand. It was awesome, and I thought, "Gee, they could make a whole game out of this if they wanted." Well, immediately afterwards, a new icon opened up on the map screen. Block Star. A whole game of this.

Even if you don't think you like Wario games, this is so much fun (and so potentially difficult as you start to balance more and more blocks that fall faster and in odder positions) that you should at least rent Smooth Moves and check it out. Here's an example of a game that you just can't do without a motion-sensitive controller, because it's the little tiny shakes of your hand that make it so appealing.
