WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase

If you've enjoyed WarioWare D.I.Y. and are looking to further the experience, WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase is the perfect compliment to the already outstanding DS title.

As a standalone game, Wario Ware D.I.Y Showcase is a fun WiiWare title that is somewhat shallow.

Having D.I.Y. Showcase means I can play F*ck Face on the big screen. It's purely a vanity thing, but it's still amazing to hold a controller in your hand, look at your TV, and play something that came out of your own brain. That alone was worth my $8.

WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase doesn't improve the series as far as gameplay or visuals. It's all the same wacky stuff, packed with 2-5 second games that get faster and faster till you lose. Still, between the 70+ new micro-games and the downloadable ones, plus the ability to transfer the DS creations to the big screen, there's a good value in this title, which makes it better than the mere "showcase" the name implies.

Its real potential resides in its connectivity with the Nintendo DS version. That is the real showcase.

While Showcase doesn't include as much variety as past WarioWare titles, it continues the franchise's longstanding tradition of being completely maniacal, frantic and fun.

Still, if you fancy a means of enjoying the unhinged insanity of user-created microgames on the big screen, Showcase is a worthy purchase.
