    This is the madest game i have ever played. At first you will be like... "what... the hell.." but trust me once you get the hang of this game you will want more! Completing it is easy if you get used to the fast paced action in the game but difficult if your hand eye co-ordination is a bit slow! The mini games arn't exactly games per-say, thats if you look at them in the way one is This is the madest game i have ever played. At first you will be like...

The mini games arn't exactly games per-say, thats if you look at them in the way one is just drawing a line through the eye of a needle and lasts about 2 seconds but the amount of mini games makes it shockingly random and exciting to play! Definately worth getting although not reccomended for people who like to play mulitplayer as there is no option for this.… Expand

    This game is a must-buy for the DS.It has a great use of the DS's functions, as well as fun gameplay. The only flaw is this game is waaaaaay too short (i beat it in the first two hours i got it) and gets boring after a while.

    Before getting this game, please be sure that the mic in your DS still works; otherwise you'll get stucked at certain point.

    Amazing addition to any DS collection. Too bad there's no local multiplayer for the microgames. The boss stages were amazing, and the music is on point. You'll never get tired of those microgames.

    Wario Ware Touched is one of the best in its series. I would recommend this game to everyone. This game looks like it took a long time to develop and was developed well.

    It looks and plays out good and nice at first glance, but if you squint and look closer, it's so short and simple the game's not even worth 6 bucks.

    Has to be ten. you thought that wari ware for the GBA was good? HAH! think again because this is twice as frantic/fast-paced and above all FUN than its counterpart. A must have for all DS owners.

    An addictive afternoon snack that ends up an amazingly entertaining dinner and dessert. Just when you think you've had enough you'll go back for more!

    Calling this game "weird" is an understatement. WarioWare: Touched! is one of the most freakish games ever made. Freakish and fun. It's great to see errant games like this being released. Possibly the best DS game yet.

    Awesome. Short, but none-the-less awesome. You can see the credits in less than a couple of hours, but collecting all the unlockables will own you until all has been found. So, for about a week. After that, you'll still desire more of Wario's weird and wacky touch games. Best played on "mix" modes.

    Most of the magic that made the original irresistable is now-curiously weakened. The frantic, clueless entrance into every mini-game has been reuined by a new organization which groups games into play-style, thus taking away the empty-headedness which made it so entertaining. Plays more like a tech-demo for the touch-screen than anything else.

    I think this game is fantastic, the learning curve is great and (although there are only minigames) it never seems to get repetative. Even my mum enjoyed playing this game, surely that means its a success?

    This game is good, but it lacks a wireless multiplayer mode. I frown upon this game because this doesn't have the wireless multiplayer mode! It's good for your mind, but once you master it, you get tired of it and abandon it. That's what I did. Sorry, folks, this is bad on replay value.

    A great addition to the series. It is brilliant fun, instantly playable and hilarious. Unfortunately all the good work is almost undone by the appalling "blowing into the mic" set of minigames. It is a truly awful gimmick and one that hardly even works. One can only hope and pray that other DS games don't follow suit and use this terrible, embarrassing feature.

    I know nostalgia is throwing this one off but this was my first ds game and the main driving force as to why I ended up getting one. This game was so simple yet it used the touchscreen so well. This was definitely the perfect game to show what the ds was capable of. I thought all of the minigames were fun, they had a lot of extra content. The music and art were good.

    this is a good game if your on the go but is not the best in the series their are a lot of mini games to hold you over for a while. the graphics could be better as the pixel sprites don't seem the best the DS can do. the mini games are not as quirky as others in the series and any using the mic do not succeed and take you out of the game. and the some of the mini games that you play inthis is a good game if your on the go but is not the best in the series their are a lot of mini games to hold you over for a while. the graphics could be better as the pixel sprites don't seem the best the DS can do. the mini games are not as quirky as others in the series and any using the mic do not succeed and take you out of the game. and the some of the mini games that you play in the story segments can screw you over espically the boss stages which can go on too long and not make sense control wise. the music is good though muffled through the ds speakers. and im not sure if you can beat the character levels like in other WarioWare games. so no closure on any of these great characters.… Expand

    Nice bargain if you are a user of My Nintendo. It is a portative console adaptation of different mobile games like Dumb Ways To Die which was created 10 years before it. Pretty nice quality of drawings and music, enjoyable controles with stylys and 2+ hours of fun (with huge replayability)

    Really good wario game. Lot of fast and great deigned mini games. Sometimes it is little bit too much, when game tells you to blow into the microphone all the time... But besides that it's really solid Wario.

    Uno de los juegos más importantes de mi vida, era mi droga de pequeño, pero a niveles serios. La necesitaba y, cuando no la tenía, sufría. Mucho.

    It's a good product, overall, but its overreliance on touching means that many of the microgames have you doing the same sort of activity again and again.

    Touched! may be an incredibly brief experience, but it's still one of the top titles in the Nintendo DS library. At the very least it gives a great insight into gameplay ideas that the touchscreen and dual-screen handheld's capable of.

    It's fun, inventive, cute, often hilarious, and occasionally heart-pounding -- nearly everything you expect a Wario title to be. It's just not especially challenging nor lengthy.
