Information

Game:

Wii Party U

Type:

2-4 Players

Timer:

7 seconds

Instructions:

"Knit like the wind! (NTSC)/Knit like a machine! (PAL) Move your knitting needles as quickly as possible to knit as many inches as you can. The player who knits the longest scarf wins."

Close Knit is an All-Play Minigame in Wii Party U.

Gameplay[]

The players must hold down the D-Pad and the 2 Button and shake their Wii Remotes to knit a scarf as fast and long as they can. They have only 7 seconds to do it.

Controls[]

  • Hold the Wii Remote horizontally.
  • Shake the Wii Remote while holding the D-Pad and 2-button to knit. If you aren't holding both buttons, you won't be able to knit.

Gameplay (Spot the Sneak)[]

In Spot the Sneak, the Sneak can hold down the B button to knit at the fastest possible speed.

Rankings[]

The #1 default record in this Minigame is set by Faustine, a Master Difficulty Mii, with a total of 152 inches (380 centimeters outside of the USA).

The rankings consist of:

  1. Faustine - 152 inches (380 centimeters)
  2. Rie - 148 inches (370 centimeters)
  3. Xixi - 140 inches (350 centimeters)
  4. Marit - 132 inches (330 centimeters)
  5. Frank - 120 inches (300 centimeters
  6. Cheng-Han - 116 inches (290 centimeters)
  7. Kazuhiko - 104 inches (260 centimeters)
  8. Maria - 100 inches (250 centimeters)
  9. Mitsu - 84 inches (210 centimeters)
  10. Chris - 76 inches (190 centimeters)

Trivia[]

  • Distances are measured in inches in the American-English translation, and in centimeters in the other versions.
    • Unlike most other minigames of this caliber, the measurements are actually recorded differently: 1 inch in the American version roughly equivalates to 2.51 centimeters in other versions, thus scores will be x2.51 times higher in centimeters than in inches.
      • This is slightly inaccurate to reality, as 1 inch should actually equivalate to 2.54 centimeters.
    • Technically, this makes ties more likely in the American-English translation than elsewhere.
  • The max distance a player can knit is 399 inches/999 centimeters, only when using Spot the Sneak controls.
  • When a player's scarf touches the ground, their Mii will stand up.
    • If any player has yet to knit their scarf to the floor - thus remaining sitting - when the timer hits 0, they will stand up when the time ends.
  • There is a single white yarn ball in each basket which doesn't get used at all. You can tell because there isn't a white yarn string connected to the knitting needles.

    See how Helen does not have the white yarn connected to her needles.

    • If you play a 3 player game, one of the baskets will have 2 white yarn balls instead of 1.
  • From the start, all Miis are set to angry face, until the time is up, when they become happy.
  • Kentaro, Sho, Masako, and Akira appear in the rules of this minigame.
