WarioWare D.I.Y. (DS)

Sale Price $14.48 SALE

(64% off) at Amazon Deal Factor 6.3 (details) Deal Factor for "WarioWare D.I.Y. (DS)"
The Deal Factor reflects the value of a deal: it's a score ranging from 0 to 10 that is based on the game's average review score, the percentage of the price drop ("savings"), and the game's age. Deals with the largest savings on the best-reviewed and most recent games have the highest Deal Factors. Since we're snobs, we give more weight to the review score than the savings or age (a bad game doesn't get better just because it's cheap or new, and our goal is to help you find the most attractive deals, not just the cheapest or newest games).

For "WarioWare D.I.Y." the Deal Factor details look like this:

Weighted Review Score 4.2
Weighted Savings Bonus + 1.6
Weighted Age Bonus + 0.5

Deal Factor 6.3 Review Average 8.3 (based on 5 critics) Genre Casual Simulation Publisher Nintendo of America Release Date 2010-03-28 Description From Wikipedia: "WarioWare D.I.Y. allows players to design their own microgames, creating their own graphics, music and designing a 'cassette' for them. The game features ..." expand → WarioWare D.I.Y. (DS)

WarioWare D.I.Y. allows players to design their own microgames, creating their own graphics, music and designing a 'cassette' for them. The game features three sections in its main menu: My House, where the player designs microgames, WarioWare, the tutorial, and My Shop, where the player makes microgame cassettes. Due to its cross-compatibility with the Wii, the gameplay is restricted to tapping mechanics. When creating the music, the player can sing through the DS's microphone, which the DS then converts into notes. These notes can then be performed by various instruments such as pig noises, similar to music creation in Mario Paint.
Players can send their creations to other D.I.Y. owners or receive other people's works. They can also be uploaded to Nintendo Wi-Fi connection for contest purposes. Microgames made available by Nintendo can be downloaded, too. Additionally, the WiiWare game WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase, known in Japan as Asobu Made in Ore, allows users to play the microgames on the Wii with the Wii remote's pointer.
