A note on the game collection: each "round" of four games is made up of (in order) a game from the GBA, DS, and Wii with the fourth being a new game for this collection. All of them, though, have been updated visually to add 3D effects.

Hmm, I don't know about these graphics. Rhythm Tengoku had a ton more charm.

For anyone wondering, this game is MASSIVE. You will think you're done several times, only to open up several more levels all the sudden. Not to mention the 6 pages of games you can buy in the shop.

Also there are 'hard' variants of a lot of the early games that are...quite hard. The game gets pretty damn challenging later.

And 'best' of all, Lockstep is back. *shudder*

You could've still passed the monkey watch, Dan. If you mess up enough (about 5 times?) the Barista in the café will let you skip a game. I had to do it for Remix 2, ALSO because of that god damn monkey watch, I had the other 3 games down pat.

Monkey Watch is in the game too! Not in story mode though, I think they realized it might be too difficult.

And yeah, game has a few false endings that are very funny, the progression is a bit weird since the beginning areas have very easy versions of the games, a bit too easy imo. But it gets much more lengthier and tough later on, its fantastic.

I would watch @danryckert play Ouendan. I mean his name is in it and everything. The feature title writes itself!

The timing of Jeff and Dan's "What?" was perfect with the incredulous look on all those scientists' faces at 28:47. Lol.

Jeff was saying the game is easier. While it is easier to get Superb rating, the mini games get much much harder towards the end of the game, but its really satisfying. Great game!

Aw do they not have those stage remixes where you play 4 games mixed together? I really liked those since they were super hectic.

@joedangerous: There are remixes after the first third of the main game. The beginning is really meant to be a warmup for people new to the series.

Ho man, the sound effect when they selected the first game sounds like the sound effect from the World of Warcraft Instant Messenger mod so I had to do a double take to see if I was alt tabbed or somethin. Christ.

I wish the game was a little more manic and spent more time actually playing the games. The dialog isn't that funny and the games finish way too quickly before you have to go back to reading. Here's hoping there's another proper wario ware down the road.

Mars was never the same after Earthlings introduced citrus, like pineapples.

That's a really weird criticism of a game that isn't WarioWare.

@dudeglove: EBA is kind of a sequel to Ouendan, so I'd say Ouendan 2 is whatcha want. They are all solid games and the music isn't that bad in the japanese ones.

As @meepasaurus said, the first 4 areas or so are really meant for beginners. When you get to the Lush Tower things start to pick up some steam.

I enjoyed this quick look, there were shades of Ryan-era Jeff in here. It's crazy to say, but I wish Dan had been less of a straight man and knew how to bring that madness out.

..... I think I've had my Dan quota at the 4 minute mark. This game is an automatic music buy just like the GBA was the must import 10 years ago.
