Basket and Ball is one of the microgames in Jimmy T's Sports level in WarioWare: Get It Together!

Gameplay[edit]

The object of this microgame is to maneuver a basketball into a wheeled basket. This is done by either moving the basket or the ball. If the ball gets in the basket, confetti explodes out of the basket, and the game is won. If the ball touches the ground, the game is lost.

  • Level 1: The basket is red, relatively wide, and has slanted lips (allowing the ball to roll into the basket more easily), and the ball is small. The ball is moving, and the player must quickly move the basket under it.
  • Level 2: The basket is the same size as in Level 1 but cyan and has straight lips, and the ball is medium-sized. The basket is already in position, and the player must move the basketball.
  • Level 3: The basket is blue, narrower, and has straight lips, and the ball is large. The player may have to move the basket or the ball.

If two players are utilized for this microgame, the ball will always move, the basket will be blue in Level 2 and green in Level 3, and it has slanted lips in Level 1, straight lips in Level 2, and no lips in Level 3. The player that last touched the basket wins a point for effort.
