The game's purpose is to pick a sushi and eat it. To do so, the player has to rotate the belt until the person's hands are right above the sushi plate, then press the {{button|gba|A}} button to grab it. If done so, the game is won. However, if the player grabs the wrong plate, he or she will lose.
The player controls a sushi conveyor belt with many different objects on it and a man standing in front of the center of the belt. The man wants to eat red sushi, as indicated by a thought bubble to the left (his right). There are two steps to perform. The player has to rotate the conveyor belt by tilting the system so that the sushi is beneath the man. The belt rotates in the same direction the system does, with the maximum and minimum angles being just past the final plate. Then, the person lowers their hands to grab an item when the player presses {{button|gba|A}}. If there is an object below the man, he eats it. Otherwise, he returns to normal. If the man eats sushi, the player wins. If the man eats anything else, the player loses. The game specifically checks for the eating animation; selecting the correct item is not enough to complete the microgame. If the man does eat sushi, his eyes turn into hearts and a ring of hearts appears around him.

Picky Eater is one of Dribble & Spitz's microgames in WarioWare: Twisted! and returns as one of Penny's microgames in WarioWare Gold. The name comes from the term "picky eater", which is an eating disorder that prevents the consumption of certain foods.

Gameplay[edit]

The player controls a sushi conveyor belt with many different objects on it and a man standing in front of the center of the belt. The man wants to eat red sushi, as indicated by a thought bubble to the left (his right). There are two steps to perform. The player has to rotate the conveyor belt by tilting the system so that the sushi is beneath the man. The belt rotates in the same direction the system does, with the maximum and minimum angles being just past the final plate. Then, the person lowers their hands to grab an item when the player presses A Button. If there is an object below the man, he eats it. Otherwise, he returns to normal. If the man eats sushi, the player wins. If the man eats anything else, the player loses. The game specifically checks for the eating animation; selecting the correct item is not enough to complete the microgame. If the man does eat sushi, his eyes turn into hearts and a ring of hearts appears around him.
