Both the ''WarioWare'' series and the ''[[Rhythm Heaven (series)|Rhythm Heaven]]'' series, having been made by the same developers, share fairly similar structures, being minigame collections with rankings, stages, remixes/harder versions of past minigames, and unlockable extras. They also share the same whimsical, comedic tone. The two series often reference each other, with the [[Wario...Where?]] and [[Wario...Where? 2: The Sequel]] [[Challenge Train]] courses in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' being the most prominent example of this.
