List of WarioWare Gold microgames
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
This page lists all the 316 microgames included in WarioWare Gold. Each microgame falls under a control scheme – "Mash", "Twist", "Touch" or "Blow" – and a genre – "Intro Games", "Sports", "That's Life", "Fantasy", "Nintendo Classics", "Mic", "Pop-Up", or "Anything Goes."
A microgame with an italic font means that it lasts twice as long.
Mash League
Microgames in this league are played using buttons only. Some games use the , others the , and some of them use both.
Wario
Wario's first set of Intro Games introduces the "mash" controls to the player. Wario is featured in all games in some form. All six regular microgames are played before the boss microgame. His intermission stage consists of Wario sitting on a chair and a jumbotron consisting of a crowd and the Mash League logo and a yellow stage and speakers. Number of lives are represented by garlic. When the player wins, Wario cheers. If the player loses, Wario falls, the league logo dangles, and the crowd on the jumbotron boos. When the player loses all their lives, Wario's background changes, the jumbotron shuts off, and the speakers blow out. After the player continues during the first playthrough, the background changes back to normal, the jumbotron turns back on and Wario gets back up.

Wario Deluxe
These microgames are themed after Wario, and can be unlocked during the last stage of the Ultra League, "Wario Deluxe". All of Wario's introduction microgames are bundled together. Much like in Mega Microgame$, the theme of his microgames is called Anything Goes. The intermission stage consists of Wario wearing the pot and floating away on a balloon basket. After 10 rounds are cleared, Wario gains electric powers and zaps the screen before each microgame and hides the style hints. After four of these microgames are cleared, Lulu pops most of the balloons with her arrows and starts to fight Wario. The number of lives is represented by gold bars. When the player wins a microgame, the crowd cheers and the screen get brighter. If she is on screen at the time, Lulu gives two fingers up as well. If the player loses, the screen darkens, the crowd boos, and a gold block is smashed. If she is on screen at the time, Lulu gets upset. When the boss is defeated, all the balloons pop except for one which Lulu floats down on. Wario falls as a result. When the player loses all their lives, a different "Game Over" tune is heard. Lulu gets thrown off of Wario Deluxe if she's on screen at the time. If the player continues on the first playthrough, Wario Deluxe will comment “Oh! Don’t know when to quit?” Lulu jumps back on Wario if she was on-screen at the time. Unlike his normal counterpart, Wario Deluxe actually wants the player to lose.

Description
What are YOU doing here?! Are you thinking you could beat ME? THE Wario?! Well, think again. The theme for this last stage is Anything Goes. That's right! You're about to see all kinds of crazy stuff! I'd pay attention if I were you. I'm not gonna make this easy!
What's this? Now you want to challenge Wario Deluxe? If you insist... Remember, Anything Goes is this stage. And the crazier I can make this, the better! I hope you like losing. (Second description)
