The WarioWare Series is a collection of fast-paced video games developed by Nintendo. The series features a unique gameplay style where players complete a series of short, quirky mini-games, known as "microgames," that last only a few seconds each. These microgames often involve simple tasks, such as tapping buttons or moving the control stick, and are designed to be humorous and unpredictable. First introduced in 2003 with WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames!, the series has since expanded to include multiple titles across various Nintendo consoles. Each game typically features a cast of characters, including Wario, who provide different gameplay mechanics and themes. The series is known for its creative design and engaging multiplayer modes.
