“I'm 18-Volt. My hobby is music! Check it out!”
18-Volt, WarioWare: Twisted!

18-Volt is a major human character in the WarioWare series. He is a great friend of 9-Volt, and shares his love of video games with him. 18-Volt debuts in WarioWare: Twisted!, where he becomes a new student at Diamond Elementary.

History

=rtgryhyjyuk.,i.s 18-Volt that he will always be his P2 (Player 2) and all goes well after that.

WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase

In WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase, 18-Volt now has his own set of microgames, in which he stars in a game called Jet 18Volt, similar to 9-Volt's microgame set in WarioWare: D.I.Y.. In a bird's eye view of Diamond City, 18-Volt flies in mid-air and shoots an army of Fronks that join together to form the number of the score. His microgames share the same theme as 9-Volt's, which is Nintendo.

After 9-Volt left WarioWare, Inc. to work for Diamond Software, 18-Volt, who continues working for Wario, appears to view him as a rival after his departure, as suggested by his role as a boss in his game (as well as their interaction after the boss game is completed) and his greeting to the player where he insists that he works at "twice the power as that other guy you might be thinking of".

Game & Wario

18-Volt returns in Game & Wario once again alongside 9-Volt. He holds his own mode in Gamer. In their story, 18-Volt and 9-Volt are playing their new console, and 18-Volt burst into tears when 9-Volt gets a score higher than his. 5-Volt takes the console and orders them to do their homework. They do so, but they get mad when they find out she got a score higher than both.

He holds a mode in Gamer. He plays microgames on the console, but unlike 9-Volt his mode is timeless and with no interruptions.

Microgames

9-Volt and 18-Volt come with their own set of microgames in all games of the WarioWare series between WarioWare: Twisted! and WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase. For the two previous games and in WarioWare: D.I.Y., he develops his games solo. However, it isn't known how much he shares in the creation of the games. For example, in WarioWare: Touched! 9-Volt says "our games", but in WarioWare: Twisted! he just speaks about "my games" in the character select menu, plus 18-Volt isn't even mentioned by name in the menu.

The microgames are based on products of Nintendo, mainly on game software and hardware, but also on merchandise from the time before Nintendo became popular as a video game company. Microgames based on the Mario series are featured in every WarioWare game.

In WarioWare: Twisted!, the microgame set of 9-Volt and 18-Volt is called Spintendo Classics. All microgames are only based on Nintendo Entertainment System games in this game. While the microgames of most of the other developers involve a particular style of gameplay per developer, the microgames of them require all kinds of spin techniques.

In WarioWare: Touched!, the name of 9-Volt and 18-Volt's set of microgames is Retro Action. The choice of Nintendo products is much more versatile than in the prior game again. Also newer products from the 21st century are featured. The microgames include a variety ways of using Stylus and also the application of the microphone, while most other microgame sets involve a particular technique again.

In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, 9-Volt and 18-Volt's set of microgames involve all possible forms. Considerably more microgames are based on more recent Nintendo products. An example is Brain Age, which is based on the Nintendo DS game Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!

In WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase, 18-Volt goes solo and has created a separate set of Nintendo themed microgames, while his friend 9-Volt goes solo for the first time since WarioWare: Mega Party Game$, in WarioWare: D.I.Y.
