The Real McCoy is a microgame found in the IQ folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!. The title of the microgame is based off an idiom and metaphor which means "the real thing".

Gameplay

The objective of the game is to choose which GBA looks like the one shown in the beginning.

  • 1st level difficulty: The player must find the correct GBA by looking at the front side.
  • 2nd level difficulty: The player must find the correct GBA by looking at the back side.
  • 3rd level difficulty: The player must find the correct GBA by looking at the front side again. Some of the GBAs are flipped upside-down, which may include the correct GBA.

Different colors will have different effects on the differences as well.

  • If the GBA is indigo, the GBAs will have the buttons mixed up. Buttons may even be on the back.
  • If the GBA is pink, the GBA screens will have different sizes. The screen, or the buttons, may be on the back as well.
  • If the GBA is orange, the GBAs will have the buttons modified. The back will be modified as well.

There is a total of 12 different forms possible for a GBA including colour and 10 not.
