Summary
[DSiWare] Put yourself in the frame for some motion-controlled fun with WarioWare: Snapped! Created especially for Nintendo DSiWare, the latest game in the WarioWare series uses the Nintendo DSi’s inner camera to make you the star of the show as you play wacky mini-games that are guaranteed to get you moving. To get started, you'll line yourself up for a photo - positioning your head and hands as instructed so that your body can become your means to control the madness. You can choose from four game modes to play, each mode featuring five different challenges and hosted by different characters. Whichever mode you opt to play, the fact that it reflects the personality of your host is a guarantee that things will get crazy! In Wario's challenges, you'll have to make big movements with your face and body to succeed - perhaps collecting coins or shaking your head at high speed to dry off a dog! Mona’s mini-games, on the other hand, will require you to line yourself up with targets on the screen. You might have to move your head into place to catch a falling hat or squash a fly just by clapping your hands. In Jimmy’s challenges, you'll play peek-a-boo with a baby, stick fingers up nostrils and dish out a quick massage just by performing the right actions. The remaining set of mini-games are hosted by ninja twins, Kat and Ana. This duo know the value of good friends, which means all their challenges require you to have a sidekick handy. Line your faces up in a totem pole, smash through a stone block together and figure out the right formations to get through whatever comes your way. [Nintendo]

IGN
The camera minigames are a lot of fun and that fun is enhanced with the payoff of the snapshots that have been taken during gameplay. It's a huge letdown that you can't save these snapshots, however, and hopefully Nintendo will let the team finish what they started so that gamers can send their wacky photo sessions to their friends.

It is a good proposal, although with some flaws which don't prevent this game to be enjoyable and original. Sometimes it's hard for the camera to give us the green light, but except for this details, it works, and very well indeed, and we'll laugh with the ridiculous photographs it has taken.
Read Full Review >Gamervision
WarioWare Snapped! might have set the bar for DSiWare, but it didn’t set it incredibly high. The amount of time it takes to set up the camera usually outlives the amount of time that can be spent with the game, and the limited number of microgames included is regrettable.
Read Full Review >PALGN
WarioWare: Snapped! is great fun with friends, but can be difficult to set up and offers little value for money.
Read Full Review >Multiplayer.it
Even with some nice ideas and the same crazy and funny atmosphere of the WarioWare series, Snapped feels nothing more than a tech demo that shows what DSi can and cannot do.
Read Full Review >Giant Bomb
WarioWare: Snapped! does make for a great tech demo, though. It's pretty crazy that you can do all this on a handheld, and it's goofy enough that you'll want to show it to your friends.
Read Full Review >Cubed3
Therefore, whilst admittedly still lots of fun on the whole, the overall experience is somewhat lacking and ends up feeling quite shallow.

When it does work, Snapped! is a really fun experience, if a little short. [June 2009, p.87]
Nintendojo
WarioWare Snapped! is like buying a Lamborghini with a bad engine. The game looks super slick and proffers a highly amusing time when running, but more often than not, never gets started because of under-the-hood problems.
Read Full Review >Cheat Code Central
It's a WarioWare game and it works with a camera, so it may pique your interest at first. However, it's very short, it won't let you save your goofy pictures or videos, and it's tough to make it work!
Read Full Review >Gamer.nl
Pretty sweet, using the camera in the brand new DSi for a bunch of minigames. Too bad that number of minigames involved is so few that you can hardly call it a game. And with a price tag of 500 points, the only thing we can cheer about is the idea of doing something new.
Read Full Review >NintendoWorldReport
WarioWare: Snapped! is a lot of fun, but it never really goes anywhere: it is just a demo of what the DSi Camera can do.
Read Full Review >games(TM)
Technical issues aside, the main problem is that each set of games is not a random selection from a larger bunch but the same set of five every time. As such, you'll experience all the game has to offer in less than five minutes. [June 2009, p.129]
Destructoid
A great credits sequence isn't enough to keep the game from getting a [40].
Read Full Review >GameSpot
These microgames are so brief that you spend more time wrestling with the camera than you do actually playing.
Read Full Review >Nintendo Life
Lets the series down; it feels more like a tech demo than anything else – there's no replay value because high-scores and full games have been removed, and then you have to be content with the fact that there are only 20 microgames to play (instead of the hundreds available in every other WarioWare!)
Read Full Review >Modojo
While we're huge fans of the series, WarioWare: Snapped! is a novel tech demo that shows just how far Nintendo needs to go to create a compelling DSi experience.

masterat t gave it a2:
Luckily I bought it via the free DSi points you get when you buy a DSi as this game is not worth anything. As mentioned it's just a tech demo that doesn't even work that well (set-up is REALLY fussy) and overall the games get boring in one go.
bea k gave it a3:
The camera-function almost doesn't work, there's always something wrong with the light or background or whatever. you don't really hold on till the game begins, because the setting takes too long and that's annoying. the mini-games itself is fun the first time, but get boring quickly. the movie shown at the end, made out of pictures of the player is fun though. but that's not enough. i'm happy that i got that one via my free nintendo-points. wouldn't have wanted to pay for that. it really should be included as a free game or kicked out/improved.
