    Extremely easy to use interface and excellent tutorials. Download service sounds promising.

    Wario is at it again and this time he'll be your ally in creating your own entertainment in the form of minigames. The process of creating and sharing these micro experiences is easy and quick, but the miniature format of these experiences can also become a bit repetitive in the long run. If you're a creative person you'll have plenty of tools to keep you busy in this package.

    The fun you can get from Do It Yourself is totally dependent on the effort you want to put into making your own minigames. If you only want to play the little games, you can find much better games in the WarioWare series. But if you love making your own games, you'll find yourself engrossed in this game for weeks.

    There are good ideas here, and around 100 pre-made micro-games to play, but WarioWare: D.I.Y. ultimately reveals itself as an obscure, cluttered experience.

    So why? You can play and create your own micro-games, music and also comics! When I was a kid, it seemed to was like a infinite game, with infinite posibilities, and I wasn't wrong at all... You really can do everything who do you want, I maded Mario style games, fish games, etc. There aren't so much limits, such like Minecraft.
    Anyways, the game have prepacked games to play if you don't want to do it yourself, and all are so cool! Also the music is really good, search the OST in YouTube if you want.
    There are so very different modes and a lot of content, really, you will be not bored in any second. So in conclusion, a masterpiece of the DS and my second favorite game of the DS (my first one is NSMB)    … Full Review »
