WarioWare: Snapped!

In WarioWare: Snapped!, Jimmy T. runs the newly opened Wario Park along with Wario, Mona, and Kat and Ana.

WarioWare: D.I.Y.

Jimmy stars in his own aerobics TV show called Jimmy's Aerobics in WarioWare: D.I.Y., where he is seen doing aerobics along with two women in the background.

Game & Wario

In Game & Wario, Jimmy T. hosts the Ski minigame. In the minigame's introduction, Jimmy is seen skiing with some women and a bear.

Jimmy T. is also seen in the Bowling minigame, as a bowling pin (like most other characters in the game).

Microgames

Jimmy T. comes with his own set of microgames in all games of the WarioWare series, except for WarioWare: Smooth Moves.

For WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, Jimmy created microgames of the Sports genre. As its name implies, all games involve some kind of sports. He also provides two remixes, meaning that he provides mixes of the microgames of other characters. WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$! does also feature Jimmy's sports microgames, plus a multiplayer game made by him, Survival Fever. Instead of sports, it features Jimmy's favorite activity, dancing.

Jimmy's microgames in WarioWare: Twisted!, involve a particular style of gameplay rather than a specific visual theme, which was also continued for the next games in the series until WarioWare: D.I.Y.. In this game, his set of microgames is called Big Tipper and requires large spins.

In WarioWare: Touched!, the name of Jimmy's set of microgames is Dance Club Rub and involves rubbing with the Stylus.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves is the only game that doesn't feature microgames of him. Instead of that, he provides a mix of microgames of other characters again, like Jimmy P. also does. And it starts at Level 2 instead of Level 1.

Jimmy's five microgames in WarioWare: Snapped! require the player's acting skills. He puts photos taken of the player into a comic strip after the end of his stage.

In WarioWare: D.I.Y., Jimmy returns to his original role and hosts a set of new Sports microgames again.
