Wario Land: The Shake Dimension[citation needed], known as Wario Land: Shake It! in North America and Wario Land: Shake (ワリオランド シェイク, Wario Rando Sheiku) in Japan, is a video game for the Wii video game console. It is the sixth game to be released in the Wario Land series.

According to a scan of a Japanese leaflet,[5] Wario Land: The Shake Dimension will follow the graphical style of earlier Wario Land games on the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Virtual Boy, and Game Boy Advance. The player will hold the Wii Remote sideways and shake it to attack enemies and perform special moves. These include grabbing items and enemies and shaking them to produce coins, and grabbing a rope flipping upwards.

The game is developed by the Japanese company Good-feel, Co. Ltd.[1], headed by the former CEO of the now-defunct Konami Computer Entertainment Kobe branch Shigeharu Umezaki.[2] It includes several animated cut scenes to progress the plot, created by anime studio Production I.G.[6]

Plot

Within an ancient globe exhibited at a museum, there is another world called Yuretopia. Yuretopia’s peace is shattered by the marauding pirate Shake King. Queen Merelda and her Merelda subjects are imprisoned and Shake King claims the legendary “Bottomless Coin Sack”, which spits out coins when shaken. Female pirate Captain Maple Syrup observes Yuretopia’s crisis from the outside world. Desiring the legendary treasure, she steals the Ancient Globe and sends it to Wario to avoid the actual work of stealing it. Wario prepares to raid the kingdom when one of the Merelda escapes to the outside world in hopes of finding help. Beseeched by the Queen to become a hero to the kingdom, Wario sets off to Yuretopia.

Stages

Wario Land: The Shake Dimension consists of 5 continents within the world of Yuretopia. Each continent holds stages - and a unique boss. It's Wario's duty to complete the stages and defeat the boss at the end of the continent. Most stages have secret passages and other goodies. Wario's main goal is to free Merfle - a small green character who is trapped in almost every stage, once Wario has collected him he must back track through the stage in a limited time. If Wario's too late he loses a life.
