WarioWare: Twisted!

WarioWare: Twisted!, known as Mawaru Made in Wario (まわるメイド イン ワリオ Mawaru Meido in Wario, lit. "Turning Made in Wario") in Japan, is the third game in the WarioWare series. It is one of only a few Game Boy Advance games to use a motion sensor, another being Yoshi Topsy-Turvy. It is also one of the only two Game Boy Advance games to use a Rumble Feature, the other being Drill Dozer. The gameplay often involves moving the Game Boy Advance rather than actually pressing the buttons. This can cause a wide variety of wacky mini-games, including ones where the player must make Wario move forward by twisting the Game Boy in the direction that he needs to go. Though it was announced for release there, the game was not released in Europe.

Story
One day, Wario was playing his Game Boy Advance. His character dies and, in his anger, Wario throws the handheld system at the wall, breaking it. Horrified, he quickly takes it to his friend Dr. Crygor and asks if he can fix it. Dr. Crygor pops it in to a newly invented machine, the Gravitator, and creates a new system that resembles a Game Boy Advance. Wario learns that he must tilt the game in a certain direction to make the character move. Shortly after he discovers how to control the new system, Mona and 9-Volt walk in and try out the new system for themselves. They love it, and this gives Wario an idea. He can market this new item and sell it to make millions, and so the game begins.

Microgame Stages
Microgame stages are a collection of microgames. Here is a list of microgame stages.

Fronk's microgames appear randomly through the other stages. Fronk does not have his own stage.

European Release
In 2005, when the game was released in Australia and America, Nintendo announced the game for release in Europe. They later announced that the game's release was delayed because it was still undergoing compulsory LGA testing to ensure it was safe. Three years later, in 2008, the Game Boy Advance was discontinued. People then found out that the page for the game on the Nintendo Europe Website had been removed and in the European version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, when it is mentioned on the Chronicle, the game is marked as "Not Released". This indicates that the game was cancelled in Europe. It is likely that the game failed its safety testing. It did receive good reception, so it would have been released in Europe had it not failed.

Trivia

 * In the Guinness World Record 2010 Gamer's Edition, WarioWare: Twisted was the game with the most minigames in a single video game. The game had 223 minigames all in one.
