Fair-Weather Friend is one of Orbulon's microgames in WarioWare: Move It! Its name comes from the term describing a person who is only a friend when it is convenient.

Gameplay[edit]

The player must point the rooster wind vane towards the source of the wind. Once the player does so, the rooster celebrates.

  • Level 1: The wind is shown indicated by gust lines.
  • Level 2: A hanging piece of clothing swaying in the wind is the only clue of where the wind is from.
  • Level 3: The vane has a pinwheel on its head. The wind is determined by the pinwheel's spinning.
