High Hoops is one of the Microgames in the Sports folder in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!. It reappears in WarioWare Gold. Its name is a portmanteau of the phrase "high hopes" and the basketball term "hoop."
Gameplay
A man holding a basketball continuously jumps next to a basketball hoop. When the man is at the peak of his jump, the player must press the / button to throw the ball into the hoop. As the difficulty increases, the hoop gets higher, making it harder to hit.
- 1st level difficulty: The hoop is a bit low.
- 2nd level difficulty: The hoop is slightly high.
- 3rd level difficulty: The hoop is considerably high.
