The heart of the Land series is its collection of minigames. In the Wii version, these are designed specifically around the "Wiimote" pointer and motion capabilities.

• Movement: Uses the Nunchuk for movement and the Wii Remote pointer for camera control/interaction.
• Zones: The world is divided into themed zones (Bomber Castle, Sea Zone, Western Zone, etc.). Each zone contains "Attractions" (minigames) that must be cleared to earn "Bomberman Coins" and unlock the boss battle.
• Customization: A massive focus is placed on "Bomberman Cards" found throughout the world. These cards allow the player to customize their Bomberman’s head, body, and accessories (e.g., giving him a samurai helmet or a guitar).
