Money is earned by attaining good results in a collection of minigames, that are what the game consists of; the better the results, the more the gain.
Among the eccentric unheard-of occupations, to be a monster in a haunted house, a sumo referee, a red-carpet celebrity interviewer, make-up artist, stunt person, and many more ones.
Three game modes compose the gaming offer of Help Wanted: 50 Wacky Jobs .* Employment Office, the story mode; Career Fair, a practice mode for those minigames formerly reached in the story mode, that you can play with Mom Grandpa or Grandma as the rivals of yours; Job Battle, a double-player competition mode which in turn offers a set of rules and game options: Free For All; Goal Money, whose winner is the first to earn the amount of a previously set pay cheque; Total Money, seeing the contenders trying to attain more money than one another along a defined number of rounds; Wins, where the challengers select how many wins are necessary to achieve victory.

The Memorial Channel sells items to be displayed in the memorial hall alongside a collection book which records visitors.
The Support Channel is where items giving aid in duties are sold, while Uniform Channels offers new uniforms.

All the game is played by Wii Remote and Nunchuk: some minigames require either
About Nintendo Wii
Launched in 2006, the Wii's motion controls (Wii Remote) brought casual and non-traditional players into console gaming at a scale no prior system had achieved, making it one of the best-selling consoles ever. Because so many Wii units sold with bundled software like Wii Sports, the bulk of the library is inexpensive to collect — but it also means truly rare Wii titles (often niche Japanese-only releases) stand out sharply from the norm.
Gamevaro tracks Help Wanted for Nintendo Wii with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Help Wanted to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WII release dates back to 2009.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Help Wanted, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Wii titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
