..... It's supposed to be! It's satire done in the style of Wario. If it wasn't cringeworthy it'd be terrible!
Oh well, maybe I never got the Wario appeal.

I remember him from the Game Boy era, when he was just a likeable anti-hero/villain. Here he just sounds and looks like a douchebag.

The last place I would have expected a good satire about Kickstarter to come from is Nintendo, and the fact that it is actually funny suprises me even more!

I never quite understood how Wario went from villain to game developer, but I guess I'll roll with it.

He likes money so he makes tiny cheap games so people will buy them and give him money without him having to do much work.

It's funny 'cause it started before people started buying iPhone games.
 
Very nice, and in keeping with Wario's previous marketing and ingame character.

I am half-anticipating an attempted backlash about the campaign though, but such is life...
 
It's funny because that's what I tell myself every time I read about someone with crowd funding. "Why should I pay for it all when others will do it for me!? Pay me so I can make my dreams come true and become rich!"

Yeah, the interview part was lame, but I like the idea.

lol "Why pay for it myself when other suckers can do it for me" lol. that's great and probably what all those wealthy developers believe hahaha.

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Genius marketing. Probably from the same people that brought us non-specific action figure.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
What the heck? I was planning on getting this game, but now I'm really going to get it.

This is......amazing!

I wish Nintendo would make WarioWare, Inc. Mega Microgames 2. Or at least put the GBA version in the eShop.
