Played until unlocking the end credits. Fittingly, they were printed on toilet paper. A swan song to nearly 15 years of dual-screen handheld goodness, featuring nuggets of absurd and subversive humor that normally don't exist in the same room as Mario. The DS began with WarioWare and its legacy ends with WarioWare. Yes, unless you're replaying the same minigames over and over for the extra goodies and high scores, it's light on content. Still, it's a 4-hour goodbye to the DS line, and hopefully a sign that Nintendo's creative staff hasn't fully let go of its weirder side. After all, Mario RPG remakes be damned, I can't imagine the standardization is that deep if they're allowing this many poop jokes and Pikmin killing in a video game.
