WarioWare DIY

As if I don’t have reason enough to buy WarioWare DIY, this sounds very awesome:

Some of the video game industry’s brightest talents are contributing to a unique series of microgames for the upcoming WarioWareâ„¢: D.I.Y. game for the Nintendo DSâ„¢ family of products and the downloadable WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase game for the WiiWareâ„¢ service.

Starting March 29, consumers who own either of the games and have a broadband Internet connection will be able to download microgames created by several acclaimed developers, each of whom has been invited to create an original microgame using Nintendo’s new WarioWare: D.I.Y. game. New microgames by the developers listed below and many others will be available for download under the “Big Name Games” banner every Monday through July 26, at no additional cost to users with broadband Internet access.

The list of “Big Name Games” participants reads like a roster of gaming all-stars. Pixel aka Daisuke Amaya (Cave Story), 5TH Cell (Scribblenauts), WayForward (A Boy and his Blob), Gaijin Games (BIT.TRIP series) and Team Meat (Super Meat Boy) will be featured in the weekly series.
