'''''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]''''' is the fifth game in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series, released as a launch title for the [[Wii]] initially in Japan on December 2, 2006. The game showcases and takes full advantage of the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] and its motion sensor, as microgames are played by placing the controller in numerous positions, called "Forms" in the game, which often invites the player to perform odd actions. All major characters from the previous games return, in addition to the new characters [[Young Cricket]], [[Master Mantis]], [[Penny]], and [[Jimmy P.]] Alongside the microgames and some longer minigames, the game includes a multiplayer mode with several subgames. This was the first ''WarioWare'' game to receive an E10+ rating from the ESRB. The game received a successor, ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'', which was released in November 2023.
'''[[Pauline]]''' (originally known as '''Lady''' or the '''Beautiful Girl''') is the damsel-in-distress in the arcade game ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', the installment that marked her debut in both the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' and ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchises, along with [[Mario]] and her titular kidnapper (confirmed in later games to be a younger [[Cranky Kong]]). She was Mario's first love interest. After a long absence, Pauline reprises her damsel-in-distress role in the [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series]]. In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', she plays a prominent supporting role, being the mayor of [[Metro Kingdom|New Donk City]], as well as singing the theme song of the game, "[[Jump Up, Super Star!]]"
