How time flies...
Today is March 21st 2023 in Japan. 20 years ago today, a full-fledged successor to Mario Artist: Polygon Studio's Sound Bomber mode was released to the world. It looked simple and humble, this is true, but no one knew just how far the idea or the characters that would be later attached to it would go.
WarioWare took this idea and RAN with it. The first title, Mega Microgame$!, refined this formula and introduced us to Wario's kooky friends: Jimmy, Dribble, Spitz, 9-Volt, Orbulon, Dr. Crygor, Kat, Ana, and of course, Mona
You have NO IDEA how much I was freaking out when I saw this live. I was so happy!
Anyways, the truth is, I really, really love all these guys, not just the pizza girl. Without them, I don't think I would have gotten hardcore into video games, much less Nintendo. I hope we see more of them in the future.
Happy Birthday WarioWare!
