'''Wario's second story:'''<br>Wario is once again seen in the headquarters, before throwing his laptop up high, and having it land onto him. Like the boombox from before, Wario is sucked into it, and appears on the monitor. In the epilogue, Wario once again emerges from the laptop, and an advertisement is shown for WarioWare, Inc.'s own game. The game becomes a success, but when WarioWare, Inc.'s employees ask Wario for their pay, Wario runs away with the cash and escapes with a rocket. However, the escape fails when Dr. Crygor accidentally bumps the rocket, and the two fall into the sea as the money flutters down with them, as the rest of WarioWare, Inc. looks on. While rowing an emergency boat with Dr. Crygor, Wario complains about his friends. | '''Wario's second story:'''<br>Wario is once again seen in the headquarters, before throwing his laptop up high, and having it land onto him.

In the end, the game does have a lot of that Tetris-like appeal, making it something that you can play in short bursts and return to again and again, which is one of the most admirable qualities a portable game can have. Anyone looking for an exciting change of pace will have a fantastic time with WarioWare.''" | |align="left"|"''While it can be said that the game isn't quite as exciting once you've seen every minigame it has to offer, the method that it brings the games to you stays fresh, and a bevy of unlockables--including full versions of Dr. Mario (renamed Dr. Wario here) and Nintendo's classic arcade game Sheriff--keep things moving along quite nicely.
