WarioWare: Move It! Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Short wacky fun for all.
Still, Move It! is a creative addition to the WarioWare license and delivers on its main promise: fun, light-hearted gaming sessions with friends.
WarioWare: Move It! is a great entry in the series, making excellent use of the JoyCons’ high-definition motion controls in classic absurd Wario fashion.
WarioWare: Move It! stands out not just as a return to the beloved mechanics of the series but as its crowning achievement since Smooth Moves. It’s a game that knows its audience, delivering a perfect blend of nostalgia and innovation that fits right into the Switch's lineup.
It's time for some silly microgame shenanigans and WarioWare: Move It! brings the goods so let's check this ridiculously fun game out.
“WarioWare: Move It! is a joyously fun return to the series motion-control era, though it doesn't evolve the formula too much.”
WarioWare: Move It! calls back to the early excitement of the Wii and motion controlled gaming. There's a ton of daft and inventive microgames here (with a slightly surprising amount of bum shaking), that's great for solo, co-op and multiplayer, but brace yourself for some wonky motion controls and fleetingly frustrating failures.
Nintendo builds on the wiggle waggle of Smooth Moves with an enjoyable yet breeze successor.
Master a multitude of motion-based microgames in the newest entry in the WarioWare series. Shake, stretch, dance, wiggle, & even curtsey through over 200 lightning-fast microgames.

WarioWare: Move It! utilizes the Joy-Con to its full potential, delivering the quick-paced, quirky fun you'd expect from such a brilliant franchise. While Story mode is a blast, the game only offers a few hours of content outside its clever but somewhat disappointing multiplayer. Move It! won't replace a certain red-hatted plumber's party and family game staples any time soon, but Intelligent System's creativity is something to be applauded.
As comical and outlandish it remains, WarioWare: Move It! and its admirable attempt to add legitimacy to the Switch's motion controls result in an experience that's both inconsistent and at times simply all too unclear to work out. When it works, the ideas posed and the involvement needed do manage to draw a smile at the absurdity one is voluntarily offering, let alone being presented on-screen. If nothing else, the egocentric, narcissistic idea of Wario plastering his face across many a Microgame visual is still as satisfyingly-dumb as it's always been. But it's a feature so obviously mutual ...
