Poses Required
==============
The Remote Control
Just point the Wiimote toward the screen. Most of these games involve
using the pointer, so ensure you aim the Wiimote at the screen before the
game actually starts. Sounds stupid, but it's a common mistake.
The Mohawk
Hold the Wiimote with both hands just above your head with the front
pointing toward the TV screen. Most of these have you moving your body
(such as doing squats), aiming, or stabbing down from this top position.
Like many of these whacky poses, this one can be faked by just holding
it in front of you and replicating the same movements.
The Dumbbell
Hold the Wiimote in one hand to it's side, so it's facing to the right.
Games require you to move the Wiimote up and down, or sometimes across.
The Janitor
Hold the Wiimote upright so it faces you, and with two hands like a
broom. The same as the Umbrella but with two hands.

Diddly Squat
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk

Variations:
Level 1 - Perform one squat.
Level 2 - Perform two squats.

Strategy: With the Wiimote on your head, squat down and up for one squat.
Alternatively just hold the Wiimote in front of you and lower it
up and down, which does the job just as nicely.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Different people squat on each level, including an old man for
level 3.
----------
Up In Arms

Pose: The Dumbbell
Objective: Lift the dumbbell the required amount of times.

Level 2 - Two lifts.
Level 3 - Three lifts.
Strategy: Make a quick and sharp lift so the Wiimote faces you and down again.
Later levels require more lifts.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The finishing screen is always the same for all three, whereas
most other microgames have slightly different ones. Hmm.

Pose: The Janitor
Objective: Sweep away the leaves!
Variations:
Level 1 - Small amount of leaves.
Level 2 - Lots of leaves.
Level 3 - Lots of leaves, with more falling.
Strategy: Sweep the Wiimote side to side to clear away the leaves. Just keep
doing this until all the leaves are gone; when it comes to level 3
more leaves fall as you go so just keep it up until the end.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: The second level person is really a witch, and the third level
sweeper gets taken out by a hawk at the end. Haha.

Variations:
Level 1 - Large open mouth.
Level 2 - Smaller mouth.

Strategy: With the Wiimote upright, jerk it forward to whack. The first level
is easy however the second and third require timing. Wait until they

to the side to avoid the others. Do this in time yet gradually.
The third level has you doing the Mohawk pose making things harder,
although you can hold it in front of you like The Sketch Artist
to make it easier and ensure you keep in line, nothing else really
changes in this third one.

it upright) so you are ready, and when the food gets the plate jam
it down firmly. For the second level the fish will come back and
forth so make sure you get it right, and for the third level wait
until all three of the creatures are fully on before you close the
lid on them.

still at the top of the screen for some reason.

Level 2 - Spikeball crosses same path.
Level 3 - Deflected off a defender.
Strategy: Either with the Wiimote above your head or in front of you, jilt it
upward at the right time to header the ball (not toward the screen,
but vertically up). For the second stage wait until the spikeball
has passed before heading, and for the third stage the ball will hit
a defender on the way which will speed it up toward the end.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Sometimes the keeper will save the ball, which doesn't impact the
outcome of you passing this microgame or not.
------------------
Unintelligent Life
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Abduct the objects!
Variations:
Level 1 - One object to abduct.
Level 2 - Two objects to abduct.
Level 3 - Two objects to abduct, one moving.
Strategy: Move the Remote closer and further away from the screen to position
the UFO over the objects. You need to have it dead centre underneath
you for it to be taken away. The third stage has Fronk moving around
on the ground, try and block him off by getting in front of him
to abduct the little bugger.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Objects include TVs and cardboard boxes.
---------------
Spring Training
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk
Objective: Dodge the fireballs!
Variations:
Level 1 - One fireball.
Level 2 - Two fireballs.
Level 3 - Three fireballs.
Strategy: Tilt the Wiimote to the sides to dodge the fireballs. It's a lot
easier to concentrate on their shadows for their positions otherwise
it's hard to tell where they are further up the screen. This is
handy for the first one, when they are quite close together.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Your Mii's head is on top of the spring.
------------
Femme Brulee
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Umbrella
Objective: Adjust the umbrella to save the people from burning in the sun!
Variations:
Level 1 - Shimming sunbather.
Level 2 - Rolling sunbather.
Level 3 - Mole sunbather.
Strategy: Tilt the Wiimote's tip to the sides to shade the people in the sand.
The shimmier and the roller operate around the umbrella and are easy
enough to get, where as the mole (level three) appears and disappears
around it, so quickly adjust when he appears. If they stay in the sun
too long and burn you fail!
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Couldn't they just wear sunblock?
----------------
Sprinkler System
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Remote Control
Objective: Use the spoon and get the powder into the container!
Variations:
Level 1 - Cup of Tea.
Level 2 - Fish Bowl.
Level 3 - Bottle.
Strategy: Using the Wiimote to control the spoon point it left and right into
the path of the powder falling down. When you have some in the tip
move it above the container and tilt it to drop it in. The latter two
stages are containers that are thinner, so place it right before
tilting. You just need one drop of the powder in order to pass.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: We can only assume the first is sugar, the second fish food, but
what of the third? Arsenic?
------------------
Stick A Fork In It
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk
Objective: Stab the food with the fork!
Variations:
Level 1 - Table moves slowly.
Level 2 - Table moves quickly.
Level 3 - Table moves very quickly.
Strategy: Stab the Wiimote down from straight on to horizontal (facing the
screen) to stab the fork into the food. The table moves, but it will
stop at around the food. This includes level three, although it will
stop just before the food, but when it moves again it will be slow
at the point when the food passes so you can easily get it in time.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: Food includes steak, cake and iced buns.
-------------------
Armed And Dangerous
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Dumbbell
Objective: When the arm wrestling match!
Variations:
Level 1 - Slight struggle.
Level 2 - More struggle.
Level 3 - Plenty of struggle.
Strategy: Move the Wiimote across to the side to pull the hands across.
Put it down to the far side and if you haven't won, keep putting it
back and forth quickly until you do win. On the later levels, the
opponent will put up a bit more of a fight.
Obstacles: None.
Other notes: You play as your Mii, with your other self created Mii's as
your opponents!
---------------------
BOSS STAGE: Boot Camp
-----------------------------------------
Pose: The Mohawk / The Elephant
Objective: Complete the assault course and defeat the enemy!
Variations and Strategy:
Level 1 - Short Assault Course, offenseless boss.
Level 2 - Long Assault Course, offensive boss.
Level 3 - Long Assault Course, offensive and closer boss.
Strategy - For the Assault Course, you have to either dodge or jump the wooden
frames. When there is just the frame then jolt down to duck or
if it's solid then you have to jolt up to jump. Note if it's
several slats tall then jump earlier to clear it in time. On the
second and third levels you'll have to do an additional section
from the side, although the controls will remain the same.
For the Boss, you have to shoot at the nostrils. The first level
will shoot no projectiles, where as the second and third levels will
out of the nostrils. Keep firing toward them and any that get close
enough to you then fire at them to save your bacon. Level three's
boss will get close to you so you need to have faster reactions.
Keep on aiming at the nostrils until the nose is destroyed.
Obstacles: Wooden Slats, Projectiles.
Other notes: This game continues the series' strange fascination with the nose.
