The WarioWare series has always been known for its humor, speedy gameplay, and minigames that are enough to make players question just what in the world they're doing. With another title in the series coming soon to the Switch, WarioWare: Get It Together! has gotten ahead of the trend with the ESRB rating spoiling a few minigames and its comedy directed to pet owners and animal lovers.
WarioWare may be famous for being one of the more hilarity-driven Nintendo titles, but returning players would be aware that the jokes the series uses have always been a little out there. Previous minigames have seen things like being encouraged to help a girl sniff back snot into her nose, and Wario keeping bears and door-to-door salesmen out of his house with a few taps of a button.
The listing for WarioWare: Get It Together! points out the cartoony nature of the game's jokes while warning buyers of how frequently Wario picks his nose, and how many games deal with toilet humor. The listing specifically mentions minigames that involve dodging pink bird droppings and one where the player has to move a piece of poop around a cat's litter box.
Fans went to Twitter to discuss the litter box game in general. Fans who don't have cats are wondering as they laugh if this is part of having a cat. Cat owners are voicing playful disgust, with one wondering if picking the droppings off a rug instead is the minigame's hard mode.
Some players do seem rather grossed out by the idea, their comments ranging from laughing to legitimately finding the idea repulsive. The minigame has yet to be shown, only known thanks to what the ESRB thought needed to be included. What type it is, what the variants of the game are, or how long the player has to move the cat's poop is up for interpretation right now, and the player's opinions may change once WarioWare: Get It Together! shares what this game is like.
In general, minigames dealing with toilet humor is just par for the course with WarioWare titles. While fans being disgusted with this one, in particular, makes sense since it's the grossest in recent memory, there are plenty of others that have the same humor about it. At the very least, with WarioWare: Get It Together!'s gimmick of having different playable characters with different movesets, it's possible fans won't have to touch the poop in-game at all if they play it right.
WarioWare: Get It Together! comes to Nintendo Switch on September 10th.
