The insanity begins in January

The gang at GoNintendo has stumbled upon the tentative release date of the one game that, in my humble opinion, would have best shown off the Wii controller at launch: WarioWare: Smooth Moves. According to the game’s description on the official Wii site, the madness will arrive on January 15. Another interesting tidbit: the site says the game is “1 player, some 2-5 players.” Five, huh?

Don’t get me wrong – the Wii game I was the most bummed about for not making launch was Super Mario Galaxy. But I can’t deny I felt a great sadness when I found out my post-launch Wii party wouldn’t involve me and a group of friends destroying my living room through wildly swinging the Wiimote while giggling like 3-year-olds (a side effect of playing WarioWare, often the onset of insanity).

  1. Not surprizing seeing that they did the same with Warioware Touched!, launch game in Japan, Mid season replacement here in the US….never in Europe(Oh wait that was Twisted…)

  2. I'm totally agreeing with you, man. Especially about the Wii Party, I mean, who wouldn't want to rock out with their friends in WarioWare while breaking many household items, like your cat for example. Although, I'm sure Wii Sports will suffice for a while. Then we get Brawl and WarioWare, which will give us some awesome mulitplayer action.

  3. 5 players?!?!? My downstairs neighbors are going to kill me. /shakes head/ Looks like no night time playing….James from Tyler, TX

  4. well… i think its awesome that they're doing things the way they are… we've got Super Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros., Metroid Prime 3, Wario Ware and Twilight Princess to add to our libraries within the next year… we will be steadily anticipating great titles and i think it will be great to have these things to look forward to…

  5. I'm also bummed that there won't be a new Mario Party game this holiday season. I usually get some sort of Target birthday gift card that ends up being used on a game … maybe it'll be Rayman this year!1-5 players? I'm assuming 4 players + a judge for your 'moves'.

  6. This title will be fun, but I'm going to buy Rayman: Raving Rabbids to suffice. I can live without WarioWare, to be honest.

  7. to my knowledge this has to be the very first nintendo system to not release a super mario series game with the system, thats a bummer
