Another Star Fox microgame appears in "WarioWare D.I.Y", taking place on Corneria, with an Arwing flying down a valley where a butterfly-shaped enemy flies towards it. The only control is tapping the screen, which causes the Arwing to fire. The microgame is won if the enemy is shot down before it hits Fox.
In "WarioWare Gold" for the 3DS, another 1993-styled Star Fox microgame identical to the Wii microgame but more regular shorter microgame appears, this time challenging players to not crash into anything when their ship is on the verge of being destroyed
