Speed Up!
- "Speed Up" redirects here. For the status boost in the Mario & Luigi series, see SPD-Up.
"Speed Up!" ("Faster!" in the English versions of WarioWare: Twisted! and WarioWare: Smooth Moves ) is a recurring event in the WarioWare series. Every time this prompt is shown, the game increases in speed, giving the player less time to react in the microgames. Generally, two "Speed Up!"s occur at certain intervals during a level; after that, a "Boss Stage" prompt introducing a boss microgame appears, and the speed resets to its original speed at the beginning of the cycle. If the player is replaying the level, a "Level Up" prompt appears after the boss microgame, which increases the game's difficulty, and the cycle repeats. After two "Level Up"s, the "Level Up"s are replaced by "Speed Up!"s, increasing the game's speed gradually until the player loses all of their lives.

Notes[edit ]
- Mona's stage in WarioWare: Twisted! was the first time there is one "Speed Up!" in a single stage.
- The five D.I.Y. stages in WarioWare: D.I.Y. was the first time that more than two "Speed Up!"s occur in a single stage. This also happens in the Wario Cup in WarioWare: Get It Together!
