Video Gaming News - May 2003
Redmond, WA (May 22, 2003) - Nintendo today announced that WarioWare
is in stores and that they are launching a game design contest that will award
the winner with cash and a GBA.
From Nintendo:
With profit$ his top priority, Wario has set up shop in Diamond City and will
sit at the helm of his newly established video game company, WarioWare, Inc.
In his new entrepreneurial role, Wario will $pend his time dreaming up ways
to enjoy the fistfuls of ca$h he plans to rake in and has enlisted his friends
to make his first game, WarioWare, Inc.(TM): Mega Microgame$. His team of
developers has created a collection of more than 200 super-fast, instant-action
game$ designed to push players' reflexes to their limits.
"The name of the game at WarioWare, Inc. is crank out as many game$ as
possible, as fast as possible!" says Wario, president, WarioWare, Inc. "I've
crammed so many game$ in here, I've lost count. I'm too busy counting my money,
and soon there will be mountains of it. This business is going to be a ca$h cow!
I don't know why I never thought of doing this before."
To avoid co$tly production overhead, Wario has taken a simple approach with
his game$. In this series of microgame$, only the A Button and the + Control Pad
are used for play and each game lasts just a few seconds. It's left up to the
player to figure out what to do.
Wario's Diamond City production team holds a diverse mix of expertise. It
includes: groovy disco dancer, Jimmy T, who specializes in sports game$; old
school grade-schooler, 9-Volt, whose collection of retro classics will make you
late for class; and savvy student, Mona, who scoops gelato at the gelateria.
Other WarioWare, Inc. employees include: reckless cabbie duo Dribble and spitz;
the intelligent life-form, Orbulon; the laboratory authority, Dr. Crygor; and
two kickin' kindergartners, Kat and Ana.
Wario is courting other ideas to create additional microgame$ that can be
mass-produced in no time flat. Potential developers who think they would cut the
mustard will have the opportunity to enter a conte$t at
www.warioware.biz in late
May.
As a worldwide leader and innovator in the creation of lucrative interactive
entertainment, WarioWare, Inc. of Diamond City manufactures and markets tons of
microgame$ in order to make mountains of ca$h. For more information about
WarioWare, Inc. or WarioWare,Inc.: Mega Microgame$ log onto
