WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party 게임!

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party 게임! is a 2003 party video game developed by Nintendo R&D1 and Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for the GameCube. It is a remake of WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames!, and the second installment in the WarioWare series, the game translates the “microgame” gameplay of Mega Microgames! to be playable in a 멀티플레이 environment. It comes with eight special 멀티플레이 modes for up to four players that all involve the known microgames in some way.

게임플레이

The gameplay in Mega Party 게임! shares elements with other WarioWare titles, emphasizing quick consecutive minigames for the player to complete (dubbed by the game as “microgames”); it includes all of the microgames from the original WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames!. However, the game places a heavier emphasis on 멀티플레이 than other series entries. In addition to a basic single-player mode, the game features several 멀티플레이 variations, each of which utilizes the microgames in different ways. Some of these include “Survival Fever”, in which players are eliminated after failing three microgames; “Balloon Bang” in which players attempt to not be actively playing a microgame when a balloon inflated by the other players bursts; “Listen to the Doctor”, in which players must perform a given action while completing a microgame and are rated by their opponents; and “Wobbly Bobbly”, in which players must keep a stack of turtles balanced, with another turtle being added after each microgame.

개발 과정

The game was developed by Intelligent Systems and Nintendo Research & 개발 과정 1, and published worldwide by Nintendo in October 2003 in Japan, and a year later in April for North America and in September for Europe. The game was produced by Takehiro Izushi and Ryoichi Kitanishi, directed by Goro Abe and Osamu Yamauchi and composed by Masanobu Matsunaga and Kenichi Nishimaki.

평가 및 반응

Mega Party 게임! received generally favorable reviews upon release, with reviewers commonly citing the game’s 멀티플레이 appeal as a positive, but its copied material from Mega Microgames! as a negative. GameRankings gave the game an aggregated score of 77% based on 53 reviews. The game is the first in the series to introduce a focus of 멀티플레이, a theme that would not be re-visited by the series until the console sequel WarioWare: Smooth Moves on the Wii in 2006. During the 8th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party 게임! received a nomination for “Console Family Game of the Year” by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences.
