The Wario Land series is where Wario, Nintendo's greedy, uncouth
and rude anti-hero first appeared, and now he's back in
singleplayer action in Wario Land: Shake It. With the Wii Remote
controller turned sideways like an old-school controller,
veterans and newcomers alike can run, jump and smash their way
through hectic side-scrolling stages. Players shake the Wii
Remote to help Wario take down his enemies, empty bags of
treasure or cause earthquakes. Best of all, there are numerous
stages each offering multiple missions to keep players coming
back again and again to unlock everything, collect more coins or
just improve their best times.
Storyline and Gameplay
Wario receives an antique globe and tele that allow him to
travel to the once-idyllic Shake Dimension, now conquered by the
tyrannical pirate, the Shake King. With the assistance of his
longtime rival, Captain , he must rescue the Merfles,
denizens of the Shake Dimension imprisoned by the Shake King.
Only by defeating the bosses of all five continents of this
strange world can Wario find and confront the Shake King, rescue
Queen Merelda, queen of the Merfles, and, most importantly, cl
the Bottomless Coin Sack, a never-ending supply of gold.
Each stage has Wario navigating an obstacle course of dangers
and traps to find an imprisoned Merfle. Once he frees the little
fellow, the countdown begins and he must find his way back to the
starting gate before time runs out. Wario must also defeat a boss
in each continent, and then buy a of the next continent from
Captain . Once all five continents' bosses have been
defeated, Wario takes on the Shake King himself.
Characters
Wario Land: Shake It features a wide cast of off-the-wall
characters including: Wario, our "hero." Captain , a female
pirate (and rival from previous games) who aids Wario on his
quest. The Merfles, helpless natives of the Shake Dimension, and
their queen, Queen Merelda. The Shake King, leader of a ruthless
pirate band who has conquered the Shake Dimension.

The Wii Remote: Powers, Weapons, Moves & Vehicles
Wario can jump and dash, as per previous Wario Land games. New
to this game is the ability to shake the Wii Remote for various
effects. By default, a shake of the Wii Remote makes Wario punch
the ground, causing a small earthquake and dazing enemies. Wario
can then pick up dazed enemies and, with another shake of the Wii
Remote, shake them for rejuvenating garlic and occasionally gold.
Enemies can also be thrown, and you by tilting the Wii
Remote.
Wario also takes control of three different vehicles during the
course of the game, all of which are piloted in part by tilting
the Wii Remote. The controls are standard for a Wii Remote held
sideways (D-pad, buttons), but with an important twist: most of
Wario's special moves are accomplished by shaking or tilting the
Wii Remote. This allows great versatility but without forcing the
player to remember complicated button combinations.
