Notes[edit]
- The Mona Pizza logo (the picture depicting Mona as a parody ofMona Lisa) is not present in the Japanese version ofWarioWare: Twisted! and did not appear until the Japanese release ofWarioWare: Touched! It was presumably added to the English version ofTwisted! due to the later release and sinceTouched! was released prior toTwisted! outside of Japan.
- The Mona Pizza delivery box's design is completely different in the Japanese version ofWarioWare: Twisted! The characters on the box arethe Pork Loins, the band from theGarage Rock microgame fromWarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and Mona's intro inWarioWare: Touched!
