8-Bit Hero is a microgame found in WarioWare: Touched! in the Retro Action stage. It features sprites from the NES games Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Ice Climber.

Gameplay

The object is to find the odd pixel out to match the example on the Top Screen. When the player succeeds, a brief scene from the respective game complete with music is shown. This game has twice the time to complete, as it requires thinking.

  • Level 1: Find the difference from a 5×3 area (15 pixels) that reveals Mario.
  • Level 2: Find the difference from a 6×4 area (24 pixels) that reveals Link.
  • Level 3: Find the difference from a 7×5 area (35 pixels) that reveals Popo.

The Ice Climber scene uses the game's original Famicom Topi (a seal) rather than the yeti-like creature in the NES and VS. System-based versions of the game.
