The Developer Diaries of WarioWare Mega Microgames

That makes sense. But agreed with you very much there. In general though I just wish there was a little more story behind it. These are all cool characters that get pushed to the wayside.

This goes for Land too.
 
Before I continue on Wario's entries, I had the urge to translate the rest of the character's profiles. I hope it gives people a little more of a taste in what character they're interested in.

That bit about Dr Crygor's recent studys is very enlightning, I always wondered why his experiments in the first game were seemingly chemical in nature, as opposed to mechanical like in the other games, those experiments being about love and hair growth and not his usual fare actually gives it some context.

I haven't forgotten this thread.

I've been struggling a little bit with the translations with a couple of 9-Volt’s entries. I have week 2 all set up though and am still going through the remaining entries on page 1.

This week, 9-Volt and co go to a barbecue and we celebrate 5-Volt's birthday. 9-Volt also likes cherry blossoms. :3

3/7 Friday
Today I’m taking a break from games and practicing DJing. I’m still working on getting better with my skills, so I’m not sure if I can DJ by myself.
Now, if Jimmy asked me to DJ at Club Sugar, maybe I’ll have to


3/8 Saturday
Wario invited everyone over for a barbecue and I went to it. Everyone brought their favorite foods. Since I like Nintendo, I brought mushrooms that looked like Super Mushrooms. I wanted to eat sweets and enjoy the barbecue, but Wario ended up eating all the food by himself. But then, Wario went through something painful. I hope he’s alright…?
Jimmy performed in the field later that night. I also wanted to participate as a DJ. I slept in a tent listening to “Until the Waves of Drifting Voice.” I had also brought my Game Boy Advance, but now I wonder how you can play it with everyone!

Note: the song title is what I’m presuming to be the theme that plays in Dribble and Spitz’s stage. The original page has a link that’ll take you to Dribble and Spitz’s part of the site to listen to the song. I have it linked but I can’t confirm for certainty as I don’t have a computer and my phone doesn’t support Flash player.


3/9 Sunday
This morning it was very cold. You shouldn’t go to bed in a tent on the beach in March. Wario made a reckless plan.
Wario is also strange in the morning. He suddenly became a good person, like he had gotten hit in the head. What was that, I wonder?
Ana caught a cold. Poor thing. But, spring is starting soon. Diamond City park becomes full of cherry blossoms in spring. I’m looking forward to it.


3/10 Monday
It’s raining today. It was hard to ride my skateboard to school. Because it was also raining a lot this afternoon, I played a game quietly at home.
I played Wave Race Blue Storm for the first time in a long time. The games beginning is difficult, but it’s Avery exhilarating game once you know how to play it. It really feels like you’re running on top of the sea! The rough waves in the race started to appear before the rain outside got heavier. Sooo thrilling!


3/11 Tuesday
When I saw the article for the GameCube version of F-Zero in a magazine, I decided to play the Nintendo 64 version, F-Zero X. F-Zero seems like most racing games (and is like Mario Kart if you play it with everyone). The overwhelming sense of speed is killing me!
The Nintendo 64 version had 3D courses and a good number of rivals. I wonder if the GameCube version will be the same? How fun!


3/12 Wednesday
Today I got to be a DJ in Club Sugar!
Jimmy danced while I arranged club versions of Nintendo background music (BGM). The collaboration between my DJing and Jimmy’s dancing made me satisfied! Jimmy is a very good dancer.
I got ring tones from Jimmy, though I don’t know the songs. They bear a likeness to Jimmy.


3/13 Thursday
Today is my mom’s birthday. I gave her a Game Boy Advance SP that I got from Wario! Since my mom loves games, I was very pleased. I wonder if everyone can buy it?
Click to expand...
Wow.... I just wanna say thanks for doing this! I was just about to accept the fact that These Diaries are only in Japanese and that I'll never get to read them...that was until I discovered that some random person decided to translate everything for fun... what are the chances!
Also could you clarify Entry 3/13 from 9 volt? He gave his gameboy to his mom for her birthday but was "he" very pleased or did you mean his "mom" was very pleased? Thanks!
