Probably because I lack my English skills, I've got some questions about WarioWare Touched!
(1) In 9-Volt's introduction movie, why does 18-Volt keep saying "Word!"? Does it mean "I'm saying the same"? (2) In the game intro, what does "I had to steal two of 'em" mean? Does Wario try to say "I've stolen two of 'em"?

Despite the fact your English is good, the problem here is individual dialects.
1. "Word" is basically just a 'cool-dude' way of saying "I agree" or something.
2. Wario says he had to steal two of 'em... basically meaning he liked them so much he couldn't steal just one.
Hope that helps.

Thanks a lot!
1. Basically I can get the meaning by the whole story itself, but I cannot confirm its meaning. (Such language is not included in my dictionary, which is about 35 years old.)
2. Your explanation differs form my expectation. I saw this caption while seeing Wario holding a GBA and an SP, so I guessed he means "I've stolen two". Thanks for explaining!

18-Volt seems to be a man-boy of very little conversation. He's so cool he only utters cool words. It's basically meaningless, but when in this kind of context, assume he means "I agree" where it would make sense.
That's the problem with cool words... they rarely mean anything comprehensible.

Each character seems to have a short story of their own, unrelated to everyone else's. It's not really a story, more of an excuse for the developers to be silly.
And yes, in my opinion it is the best game available on the DS right now.

Fair enough.
I like the look of Yoshi's Touch & Go - is it any good? It looks like a puzzle version on the SNES classic Yoshi's Island - kind of like a sequel/spin-off, but part of the ultra-cutesy Yoshi series.

That's only becouse you guys don't have Yoshi Touch&Go yet. That is true! I am looking forward to it bigtime. But for what's available in Europe right now, WarioWare wins.

From what I hear - usually american reviews - Yoshi T&G is extemely good, but far too short. Apparently, the thing we should be looking forward to at the moment is Kirby Cursed Canvas. Same good stuff from Yoshi, but from a Kirby stance and in an actual "full length" game. P.S. STILL haven't got Wario Ware Touched yet!! Its an experience I've been saving until my birthday in May: waiting is half the fun
