Biography
A new Friend
18-Volt is the only new employee of WarioWare, Inc. introduced in WarioWare: Twisted!. On his first day at Diamond Elementary, the teacher asked him what his hobby is, to which he responded by taking out his boombox and playing loud Rock 'n 'Roll music.
He got in trouble for this, and after school he headed for his house broken-hearted. However, 9-Volt stopped him and said that he liked his music. The two of them became fast friends, and 9-Volt invited 18-Volt over to his house. When they got there 18-Volt was ecstatic to see that 9-Volt has a NES, and the duo spent a lot of time on playing on the system. However, eventually 9-Volt's mother 5-Volt told her son and his new friend to cease.
Gaming far into Night
In WarioWare: Touched, 18-Volt and 9-Volt went to the toy store Toy Express to get a copy of the coveted new GameCube game 36-Volt Man. 9-Volt could snatch one and showed it happily to 18-Volt, who carried his boombox on his shoulder. The two friends did quickly return to 9-Volt's house, courious about their new game. On their way, they passed the alien Orbulon who ran after his flying spaceship.
At the house, 18-Volt and 9-Volt played far into the night and succeed in the game. To celebrate their success, 9-Volt spinned records again while 18-Volt danced behind him with his boombox. But it got so late that the two gamers fell asleep.
In the morning, when they woke up, it was already 9'o clock. 18-Volt and 9-Volt were shocked about that and hurried to school.
The Multiplayer Test
18-Volt visited 9-Volt again in WarioWare: Smooth Moves. There 9-Volt showed a Game & Watch handheld console to his tall friend and played with it. 18-Volt did firstly mistake it for a Nintendo DS Lite. He wanted to see more of the console and grabbed it. 9-Volt also still held the console and told him that he is still playing, but 18-Volt couldn't await and so the Game & Watch broke into two pieces. 9-Volt got mad and ordered 18-Volt to leave the house.
Now 18-Volt had a bad conscience and tried to find a new Game & Watch for his friend. He first looked in Toy Express but they didn't have what 18-Volt searched. After leaving the store, he noticed another store where some video game fans lined up. 18-Volt went into the store and the owner of the shop, Satoru Iwata, did coincidentally have the searched Game & Watch on offer. 18-Volt reached for it, but surprisingly 9-Volt did the same. The friends faced each other and they both excused for their mistakes. 9-Volt told 18-Volt that he will always be his P2 (Player 2) and all was okay again.
