WarioWare, Inc. is a fictional game company owned by the Nintendo character, Wario. WarioWare's employees are friends and companions of Wario. Wario's greedy attitude is embedded in his company; the cover of WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$, for instance, shows him saying "Hey! Buy my game!" He also happens to never share his money with his employees.
In 2003, WarioWare was established as a new Nintendo franchise derived from the Mario universe. The distinctive feature of all WarioWare games is that they are collections of relatively short, simple microgames packaged in a single game. Each of these microgames last about five seconds and must be completed, or else a life will be lost. For example, there is a level where the player must pick a nose before the time runs out; in another, Wario must collect coins in a Pac-Man-like maze. The numerous microgames are linked together randomly and steadily increase in speed and difficulty as the player progresses.
Aside from the main characters, there are a number of recurring characters who play a minor part in some or all of the games.
