Wario's Homerun Derby

Wario's Homerun Derby is a mini-game that is featured in the game Wario Land 4. Like the other two mini-games in the Mini-Game Shop, it costs 5000 points to play (points are obtained during normal gameplay). In this mini-game, a stick figure pitches a baseball to Wario, who must hit it by pressing with good timing to hit a home run, while at the same time avoiding a foul ball or striking out. If Wario manages to hit three homeruns in a row, he wins a Frog Medal, which can be spent at the Item Shop. As the mini-game progresses, and the player gets more and more Frog Medals, the pitches get faster, and some times curve. The game continues until the player either strikes out three times in a row, or hits the ball and is unsuccessful in getting a home run three times in the same round. Playing again costs another 5000 points. The baseball that is thrown has Wario's face on it.
