==History==
===''WarioWare'' series===
====''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!''====
Diamond Taxi first appeared in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', where Dribble & Spitz are seen washing their taxi in the middle of the night before driving to a taxi stop. There, they pick up a young boy or girl (named after the player) who asks to be taken to the sea. Knowing that the closet place is the pier, they take the passenger there instead, and the scene shifts to the inside of the taxi, where it stay's until the player clears [[Sci-Fi|Dribble & Spitz's stage]].
When they arrive at the pier, the person walks to the edge, transforms into a merman/mermaid in front of the furry cabbies, and jumps in the sea, bidding them farewell. Fascinated by this strange phenomenon until dawn breaks, they eventually realize that they forgot to collect the passenger's fare. Afterwards, the taxi pulls over at the [[Gelateria]], where Dribble & Spitz are seen eating [[wikipedia:Gelato|gelato]].


====''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!''====
==''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!''==
In ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!]]'', Dribble & Spitz are traveling around Diamond City, where they are called upon by a woman who was really [[Orbulon]] in disguise. She asks them to take her to the farthest reaches of outer space, and on the way, she reveals her true identity, but the furry duo don't seem to be bothered. When they arrive, Orbulon drags the taxi into [[Oinker|his UFO]], and makes them his underlings, until they suddenly get hit by an asteroid and fall back down to Earth, landing in [[Dr. Crygor]]'s laboratory. Dribble & Spitz's taxi soon becomes able to float on water, and they, Orbulon and Dr. Crygor travel to the mainland. During the journey, Spitz tunes in to watch the Super Show, and before long they had arrived at [[Restaurant Sora Sora]], where [[Mona]] is working.
