Shifty Gifts (ぐらぐらプレゼント (Guragura Purezento), Wobbly Present in the Japanese version) is a 4-player Minigame and a Challenge Minigame in Wii Party.

Gameplay (Four Player)[]

The objective of this Minigame is that the players try to balance a pile of presents without tipping them over. The player tilts the Wii Remote left or right to balance the presents. Wind gusts will occasionally happen causing a distraction. A Mii riding a bicycle also causes the presents to slightly shift to the side, and a truck can also arrive with several presents, making the stack taller. The last player with his/her presents still up or the players whose presents are still up after the time limit wins.

Gameplay (Challenge)[]

Unlike its four player version, the objective is to see how long the player(s) can balance all presents. The longer they can balance the presents, the more presents get out on their stack. This mode also has more events that can tip the player's(s) presents:

  • Two Miis running around the player.
  • A Mii on the scooter.
  • A Mii starts walking in front of the player, and jumps in surprise and starts running away from a barrel. With another Mii chasing the barrel. Afterwards, the Miis and the barrel are going in the opposite direction in the same situation.
  • A Mii on a pogo stick.
  • A Mii does a double jump. Their final jump makes a small explosion.

Note: It is able to last to 5 minutes maximum if you manage to keep balance. It's harder to do so once the stack of gifts with the Teddy Bear appears, for it makes the stack that the player is already holding more wobbly and harder to balance.

Note: On the top of the presents there is a teddy bear. The teddy bear appears after roughly 4 minutes have passed. After the teddy bear is on top, no more presents will pile up.

The default #1 record for the challenge mode is set by George, a Master Difficulty Mii, with a time of 2:00.0, unless if you get a time more than 2:00.0.

Default Records (Challenge)[]

  1. George: 2:00.0
  2. Martin: 1:55.0
  3. Rainer: 1:50.0
  4. Ashley: 1:45.0
  5. Sota: 1:40.0
  6. Ursula: 1:35.0
  7. Marco: 1:30.0
  8. Mike: 1:25.0
  9. Haru: 1:20.0
  10. Chika: 1:15.0

Trivia[]

  • The helicopter is shown to have nobody inside of it.
  • In Challenge Mode, when the player drops the presents, Their Mii will just look at the floor with no expression on their face.
  • If the player drops the presents at the same time the barrel is rolling past, it will push the presents out of the way.

A Beginner Difficulty Mii can actually last longer than a Master Difficulty Mii in this.

  • This is an unused Spot the Sneak minigame. Here, it prevents the Sneak from dropping their stack of gifts. Holding B will allow the Sneak to drop their gifts as usual. Like Derby Dash, Quicker Chipper, Crash Balls, and Tropical Punch, it is implied that this unused Spot the Sneak minigame is not released globally because it gives the sneak an unfair advantage, regardless if a sneak pretends to be a normal player.
