Well, there's only so many minigames you can do with the same three or four buttons and a joystick. Hence, mashing.

They could have easily come up with another form of control for those types of games. I recall the C-Buttons not being used at all (save for minor things like reading the rules in the minigame intro screens).

MP's 5 and 6 (or was it 6 and 7?) started using the entire controller, having the C-Stick as part of the control scheme in some of the games.

What I'd like to see is less of the Press the button repeadtley/as fast as you can/rotation games and more of the other types of games.

MP8 was a step in the right direction. I don't recall a single button masher in that game (though, I didn't play it nearly as long as the oterh MP games).

I don't know what the rest of you are talking about. I love button mashing minigames!

Then you must love the Warioware series.

...
Have you ever played WarioWare?

Who doesn't love WarioWare?

The Wario Ware games I've played are twisted and smooth. Twisted is by far the best handheld game to feature the motion thingy. The mini-games are good, wacky fun and there is a good amount of features like the souvenirs, it also manages to be challenging without feeling cheap. Smooth was a great game, but it just wasn't as good as twisted, it was just missing something.

Those two are my personal faves, actually (though the original has that simplistic, bare-bones charm).

I need more Wario Ware games, as I only have the first. But it's amazing, Nintendo even manages a new genre in this day and age. Amazing stuff.

Definitely Super Mario Bros.2 for NES, the "oddball" one. I have never beaten it! All the other NES, SNES, GameBoy games, I have beaten, but not SMB2!!

Personally, I had a little trouble with SMB2J at first, but to me it isn't as hard as everyone is saying it is. I don't know which Mario game I think is the hardest because I have still yet to play them all. I did play all the RPGs, some sport games, and most of the platformers, though.

Super Mario Galaxy, mostly due to the Daredevil and Speedy comets.

The only prankster comets that I had a lot of trouble with were Bouldergeist Daredevil run and Luigi's Purple coins.

Super Mario Galaxy is SO much easier than SMS or SM64. And it's especially easier than SMB2 Japan.

Preschool Fun is the hardest. Honestly, it downright unbeatable.
