Wario Ware: D.I.Y. Showcase

WARIO WARE: D.I.Y. SHOWCASE


So, today, we'll be starting the deluxe ports, pre-existing games re-released for new consoles with significantly noteworthy additions that make the second purchase worthwhile. This differs from the remakes we've previously covered as those games were mostly reconstructed from the ground up for a new generation, while these are mostly the same game, just adjusted a bit to suit the new system.

I'm not entirely sure this game really counts in that criteria, but I didn't initially realize it was an entirely separate game at first when I was covering the Wario Ware games, and it more or less fits this group. D.I.Y. Showcase was released as a supplement to D.I.Y. featuring some of the best microgames made during the initial games' run. The game also adds in a handful of minigames featuring the characters who stayed with Wario after the others went off to join a rival company. This includes a rally race starring Dribble and Spitz, a hang-gliding game starring Kat and Ana, and a shooter game starring 18-Volt.

That's about it! Here's what we've got so far:
