Template:Articleabout Template:Infobox Game & Wario is a party game for the Wii U. This game is a spin-off from the WarioWare series[1]. The game stars Wario and, like WarioWare, it takes place in Diamond City. The game can be played between one to five people. The title and logo are a reference to the Game & Watch series.
Story
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
Wario is watching television at his house. He changes channels, until noticing a reporting about a newly released console, featuring a controller with a screen (similarly to the Wii U GamePad). In order to win a lot of money, Wario decides to create games for that console and starts working on his computer. His friends in Diamond City also have news about the console, and are interested in it.
Arrow
Wario is at home, eating strawberries and watching TV. A mouse comes from behind his head and steals the last strawberry before running away. Wario grabs arch and arrows from a passer-by archer and shoot them at the mouse. He hits the strawberry and gets it back, but the mouse keeps running. Later, Wario is sleeping in his house. The animal comes back and throws pepper at his nose, making him sneeze. The mouse bounces in the room until it hits Wario's dusty laptop. From this, Wario has the idea of creating the Arrow minigame.
Shutter
Joe gets a phone call from Mona and tells her that he has the latest scoop for their next newspaper. He asks her to go out to the crime scene to take pictures for evidence. She says "OK" and zooms out on her scooter to the crime scene. Once she gets to the crime scene, she sneaks up on the criminals and takes a picture of them and as a result, they get arrested.
Ski
Jimmy T. skis past a girl, and she and some other girls join in a line to ski with him. They then jump off from a slope.
Gamer
9-Volt is playing a game while 18-Volt watches as he beats his score. 5-Volt then enters the room and takes 9-Volt's game, telling the boys they should be doing their homework. After they finish, 9-Volt and 18-Volt discover 5-Volt achieved 100 points, beating both of their scores.
Pirates
Wario decides to take a ride on his bike out of boredom and stumbles across a pirate suit in a store window. He buys it and rides his bike on the beach in his new costume.
Gameplay
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
The game makes full use of the Wii U GamePad controller, as it includes minigames that require players to use the controller's touch screen. Players must play a variety of minigames to earn medals and bonus items.
Single-player
| Host | Minigame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Wario | 
|
A shooting minigame that requires players to use a bow and arrow to shoot the on-screen Tiny Wario robots. The minigame is played by holding the Wii U GamePad vertically, aiming at the television screen, and using the touch screen to draw and fire the arrow at the enemies. If the Tiny Warios reach the television screen, they will appear on the Wii U GamePad's touch screen, where the player must tap them on the touch screen to make them disappear. A gigantic Wario-like robotic vehicle also appears in the minigame as a boss. The player can also use pepper shakers by tapping the nose on the arrow which can have a bigger impact than the regular arrow. |
| Mona | 
|
In this minigame, players must search the buildings and streets to look for hidden criminals. It is played by holding the Wii U GamePad in front of the television like a camera. Once players take a picture of a criminal, they must tilt the Wii U GamePad down to send it to the newspaper editor. The newspaper editor will then give the player feedback on the picture and tell the player if they need to improve on the picture they took. The player can take multiple pictures for a better score but they have a limit on how many they can take. |

|
A game with a similar gameplay to the WarioWare games, playing microgames in the Wii U GamePad.
