If a robot makes it across the map, for example, they'll appear on the touchscreen and you have to squash them as quickly as you can. It's got loads of lovely little bits of business in it, too. It's brilliant - bright, precise, and surprisingly stressful. Strike them to take them down, hit bombs to kill them en masse, and pay attention to armoured guys and a boss who has to have his shielding undone, one screw at a time. The Pad's vertical again, and you use it to pull back and then release a bow, aiming shots at nasty little Wario robots advancing towards you on the TV. Now what about Arrow? Arrow is basically Space Invaders. The skier uses the Game Pad, held vertically, to view proceedings from a top-down perspective: tilt to steer, don't miss the jumps, and would it kill you to stay out of the snow? The rest of the family follows the action on the telly, incidentally, and they get to see the whole thing nicely cut together, as if they're watching the best Winter Olympics ever. It's all about Jimmy, and he's cel-shaded and racing across the ice to get to a disco. Ski is the least interesting of the bunch, so let's get it over with quickly. Rejoice!Īlso, I've played four of the new games. The series' masterful blend of chaos and precision has been sorely missed from the 3DS's line-up so far, but at least it's going to make it to the Wii U.

It's hard to stay upset when WarioWare's back, and - guess what? - WarioWare's back. Why make room in your E3 press conference for a brilliant new Platinum Games project when it's going to eat into precious time that Reggie could be using to do an impression of a randy French zombie? (It was meant to be randy, right?) Why tell anyone you've got a new WarioWare in the works, when you could be showing off Batman - a dazzling action adventure that absolutely everybody's already played? They just chose not to show people all of them. So it turns out that Nintendo has a bunch of decent games for the Wii U.
