Arrow Space is one of Dribble & Spitz's microgames in both the Sci-Fi folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and the Fantasy stage from the Mash League in WarioWare Gold. Its name is a portmanteau of "arrow" and "aerospace," and it shares its music and setting with Ninja Vision.

Gameplay[edit]

There is a ninja known as Tiny Ninja standing in front of a wall. Various arrows fly upward in the background and then fall down in the foreground. The player must control Tiny Ninja (using the +Control Pad left or right) in order to avoid the arrows, because otherwise, the microgame is lost.

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$![edit]

  • 1st level difficulty: There are 11 arrows and the gap is 5 arrows wide.
  • 2nd level difficulty: There are 12 arrows and the gap is 4 arrows wide.
  • 3rd level difficulty: There are 13 arrows and the gap is 3 arrows wide.

WarioWare Gold[edit]

This version incorporates another microgame into its version of Arrow Space, Drywall Dodge, from WarioWare: Twisted!

  • 1st level difficulty: 12 arrows fall down and the gap is 4 arrows wide.
  • 2nd level difficulty: 11 wall panels fall over and the gap is 5 panels wide.
  • 3rd level difficulty: Both arrows and panels fall down. Combinations can be: 5 arrows plus 4 panels; 5 arrows plus 6 panels; and 3 arrows plus 5 panels.

Appearance in the Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

One of the 9 microgames of the WarioWare, Inc. stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Arrow Space in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Arrow Space reappears as a microgame in the WarioWare, Inc. stage of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Like the actual microgame, players must avoid the arrows to win. They have significantly more room to do so, as they can go out of the play area which the ninja is trapped in. (The ninja being struck by an arrow does not affect whether the characters can win.)
