| '''9-Volt''' is a major human character in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series. He is a [[Nintendo]] fan who collects everything released by the company and loves to play video games. 9-Volt lives with his mother [[5-Volt]] and his pet [[Fronk]] in their [[9-Volt's House|house]] in [[Diamond City]] and attends [[Diamond City Elementary]]. He debuts in ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'' as one of [[Wario]]'s friends who help him produce [[microgame]]s. His name comes from the operating voltage of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]]. 9-Volt's microgames are typically based on products of [[Nintendo]], mainly on game software and hardware, but also on merchandise from the time before Nintendo became popular as a video game company. Since ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', 9-Volt is frequently accompanied by [[18-Volt]], who becomes one of his best friends.

| 9-Volt's first appearance is in the intro of ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'', where he is called by Wario to join his company [[WarioWare, Inc.]] and to produce microgames for his upcoming game. Like Wario's other friends in Diamond City, 9-Volt agrees.

| | '''9-Volt''' is a major [[human]] character in the ''[[WarioWare]]'' series. He is a [[Nintendo]] fanboy, he collects everything about this company, and loves to play video games. 9-Volt lives with his mother, [[5-Volt]] and his pet [[Fronk]] in their [[9-Volt's House|house]] in [[Diamond City]] and attends [[Diamond Elementary]]. He debuts in ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'' as one of [[Wario]]'s friends who helps him produce [[microgame]]s. |
| In 9-Volt's own story, after his school day ends, he skates home with his high-tech skateboard, [[SK8]]. At the house, 9-Volt gets into his room and plays with his mixing console. 9-Volt says "Hello" a few times, and with the help of the machine, he imitates a voice resembling [[Jimmy T|Jimmy T.]]'s. 9-Volt's oversized [[Game Boy]] answers him with "OK". 9-Volt makes music with the mixing console and spins records on it, and the Game Boy uses a mechanism to insert a cartridge into itself. This starts a game on the Game Boy's screen which is based on a turn-based role-playing game, in which 9-Volt is the player character and battles microgames.
| |
|
| |
|
| Later, as 9-Volt is still spinning records, [[Ken the Reporter]] suddenly appears and announces that the [[nwiki:Game Boy Advance SP|Game Boy Advance SP]] is on sale in stores. Excited by this news, 9-Volt leaves the house and his skateboard transforms into a hoverboard. With that, 9-Volt hurries to the next store to purchase the new handheld.
| | Since ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', 9-Volt always stars together with [[18-Volt]] in the ''WarioWare'' series, who becomes one of his best friends in this game. |
|
| |
|
| 9-Volt has created microgames of the [[List of microgames in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!#Nintendo Classics|Nintendo Classic]]s genre. The games involve various Nintendo products from the 1960s up to the 1990s. | | ==History== |

| | Firstly, 9-Volt could be seen in the intro of ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', where he is called by Wario to join his "company" [[WarioWare, Inc. (company)|WarioWare, Inc.]] and to produce microgames for his upcoming game. Like Wario's other friends in Diamond City, 9-Volt agrees. |
|
| |
|
| 9-Volt also makes a short appearance in the ending story of the game, where Wario escapes with the money he earned from the games made by him and his friends. 9-Volt is in shock over this, but like the other employees except for [[Mona]], he does not chase after Wario. | | [[File:9-Volt prologue WarioWare Mega Microgames.png|thumb|left|9-Volt, at home with his Nintendo collection and mixing console.]] |
| | In 9-Volt's own story, the school is out and he skates home with his high-tech skateboard, [[SK8]]. At the house, 9-Volt gets into his room and plays with his mixing console. 9-Volt says "Hello" a few times and with the help of the machine he imitates the voice of [[Jimmy T.]] or at least a similar voice while saying it. 9-Volt's oversized [[Game Boy]] answers him with "OK". Then 9-Volt makes music with the mixing console and spins records on it. Some kind of grabber comes out of the Game Boy and pops an over-sized cartridge into it. |

|
| 9-Volt is featured in four unlockable [[minigame]]s in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!''. In [[Skating Board]], he appears as the protagonist of the game, and he must avoid obstacles and red birds with his skateboard. In the two-player minigame [[Chicken Race (minigame)|Chicken Race]], 9-Volt is the character of the player who has to use {{button|gba|L}}, while the other player's character is a Fronk, possibly his pet. 9-Volt also makes an appearance in the minigame taken from ''[[Mario Paint]]'', [[Fly Swatter]], where the [[Spiny]] appearing in the congratulations sequence has been replaced by him. The minigame [[Paper Plane (minigame)|Paper Plane]] features 9-Volt as one of the characters looking through a window and telling the current flight time. | | Later, while 9-Volt still spins records, [[Ken the Reporter]] appears and announces that the [[Game Boy Advance#Game Boy Advance SP|Game Boy Advance SP]] is on sale in stores.

This suggests that both 9-Volt and Mona have a strong friendship with him (though in his case, it might have been his fanboy tendencies). |
| In ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!]]'', 9-Volt hosts a television show called Super Show. There, he uses a mixing console again and a [[Game Boy Advance]] with arms and legs that responds "OK" each time 9-Volt says "What's up!", in a similar manner to the Game Boy in the previous game. [[Kat & Ana]] follow 9-Volt's entrance.

| In the intro of ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', 9-Volt comes along with Mona to [[Dr. Crygor's Lab]]. There, [[Dr. Crygor]] tries to fix Wario's broken Game Boy Advance with his invention, the [[Gravitator]]. Instead of fixing it, the Gravitator creates several devices controlled only through tilting. 9-Volt and Mona try it out and enjoy it. Wario gets the idea to make a new ''WarioWare'' game involving this style of gameplay.

| 9-Volt is shown to be a troublemaker at school in this game. In his own story, a new student named 18-Volt comes into his class.

There, he showed a [[Game & Watch]] handheld console to his tall friend and plays with it. 18-Volt mistakes it for a [[Nintendo DS#Nintendo DS Lite|Nintendo DS Lite]] at first. He wants to see more of the console and gropes it, but 9-Volt still has the console in his hands and informs him that he is still playing, but he couldn't wait and the Game & Watch brakes in two halves.

| The name of 9-Volt & 18-Volt's set of microgames is [[List of microgames in WarioWare: Touched!#Retro Action|Retro Action]]. This set of microgames returns to the variety of Nintendo games and toys seen in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!''. Newer Nintendo products from the 21st century are also featured. The microgames include all kinds of ways of using the {{button|ds|Stylus}} stylus, as well as the application of the [[Nintendo DS#Microphone|microphone]], while most other microgame sets once again involve the use of a particular technique. Their logo is a reference to the logo of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]''
| | Now, 18-Volt has a bad conscience and tries to find a new Game & Watch for his friend. He first looks in Toy Express, but they didn't have what he desires. After leaving the store, 18-Volt notices another store where some gamers lineup. He got into the store and the owner of the shop, [[Satoru Iwata|Shop Manager Iwata]], coincidentally has the searched Game & Watch on offer. 18-Volt reaches for it, but surprisingly 9-Volt does the same. The friends face each other and they both excuse each other for their mistakes. 9-Volt tells 18-Volt that he will always be his P2 (Player 2) and all goes well after that. |

As he was supposed to sleep, [[5-Volt]] often drops by his bedroom. If 9-Volt hides the console from 5-Volt, she will leave. However, if 5-Volt finds out 9-Volt is playing video games during his bedtime, he is scolded by her and the player loses. On his minigame's title screen, 9-Volt is depicted as having red hair; this is also the first time he is seen without his construction helmet. | | {{br|left}} |
| | |
| 9-Volt is also in the [[Bowling]] minigame, depicted on a bowling pin, like most other characters in the game.
| |
| | |
| As with the other ''WarioWare'' characters, 9-Volt makes an appearance in ''[[Game & Wario#Miiverse Sketch Masterpiece Collection|Miiverse Sketch Masterpiece Collection]]'', a series of videos showcasing pictures of often questionable quality made in the game's Miiverse Sketch mode. 9-Volt is the host of the fourteenth video, themed after drawings of [[Samus|Samus Aran]].

| |
| 9-Volt makes a reappearance in ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'' for [[Nintendo 3DS]]. He, like the other characters, has his design changed, as he looks slightly taller than he was before, has had his fingerless gloves changed back to fingered ones, and has more hair. His voice clips also no longer appear to be robotic and filtered. He is also seen attending a [[Diamond City Elementary|school]]. In his story, 9-Volt appears to find math uninteresting, but suddenly, [[Fronk]] appears (despite pets not being allowed in school) to help 9-Volt make math fun by connecting it to video games. 9-Volt also makes a cameo appearance as a DJ in 18-Volt's opening and another appearance in 5-Volt's ending cutscene. 9-Volt, Wario, and Dr. Crygor are the only microgame hosts to have dialogue in more than one stage outside the Ultra League.
| |
| | |
| 9-Volt, 18-Volt, and 5-Volt each have separate microgames, themed around Nintendo. 9-Volt's microgames are again named [[List of WarioWare Gold microgames#9-Volt|Nintendo Classics]] and are hosted in the Touch League. Some of them include but are not limited to [[Hanafuda]], [[amiibo]], and the Wii's [[Mii Channel]].
| |
| | |
| 9-Volt also appears in the Potluck Gang set of the Ultra League, where he goes on a camping trip with Orbulon, [[18-Volt]], [[Ashley]], [[Red (WarioWare series)|Red]], [[Dribble & Spitz|Dribble, Spitz]], [[Mike]], and [[5-Volt]]. He asks the group what food they brought, saying that a potluck might have been a bad idea after Ashley brings a [[mandrake]] root. He is then seen playing cards with the rest of the group.
| |
| | |
| After completing the game, a new mode called "Sneaky Gamer" is unlocked, which is a variant of Gamer. However, there are two additions:
| |
| *[[Fronk]] sometimes come to the door and looks at 9-Volt playing as a fake-out.
| |
| *The TV sometimes vibrates and gets lifted by [[5-Volt]], who then checks whether 9-Volt is playing. It is also possible for [[Mr. Sparkles]] to lift the TV instead of 5-Volt or for the TV to vibrate but not be lifted as fake-outs.

| 9-Volt appears in ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'' In the game's story mode, he appears in the opening cutscene, playing a video game with 18-Volt. He, along with the rest of the WarioWare, Inc. employees, gets sucked into the game world due to [[Wario]]'s actions.
| |
| | |
| His stage is the Nintendo Classics stage, which is available after Mona's That's Life stage is completed. In the pre-stage cutscene, Wario, [[Young Cricket]], 18-Volt, and Mona are seen wandering in front of 9-Volt's stage entrance, with 18-Volt taking joy in being pushed around without having to move and Cricket complaining about this dilemma. Suddenly, the crew notices 9-Volt skating across on his [[SK8|skateboard]], stating that he is somehow unable to stop it from moving. As he skates into a box in front of his stage entrance, he skates the opposite direction, and comments on his newfound ability. He notices his ruined level, and when 18-Volt explains the situation to him, 9-Volt prepares to deal with the [[game bug|game bugs]].

| | |
| In his story, 9-Volt is seen skating home along with 18-Volt and [[13-Amp]] following behind him. As they reach [[9-Volt's House|his house]], his friends bid him goodbye. Upon nightfall, 9-Volt goes to sleep, with [[5-Volt]] tucking him in. Once she leaves his bedroom, 9-Volt gets out of bed and shows [[Fronk]] his new [[Epic Augmented Reality Game]], eliciting a joyous reaction from Fronk. His reaction is immediately shushed by 9-Volt, and, upon hearing his mother's footsteps approaching the door, he pretends to go back to sleep. After his mother checks on him and leaves, 9-Volt gets out of bed again and puts on his construction helmet, starting the game. After his stage is cleared, 9-Volt joins the gang, commenting "Haha! Talk about a KO!"
| |
| | |
| Throughout the various pre-stage cutscenes, 9-Volt is shown between two other characters, due to his inability to control his movement.

| After beating Anything Goes, 9-Volt goes back to the real world alongside most of the other WarioWare, Inc. employees and chases after Wario after it is revealed their predicament was caused by his poor programming. However, they soon remember other people were left behind in the game world, and they immediately return to rescue them. After completing Showdown, 9-Volt recognizes the creature that captured some of the crew as [[Pyoro]], the star of the recent best-selling game in Diamond City.
| | ==Microgames== |
| | 9-Volt comes with his own set of microgames in all games of the ''WarioWare'' series. Between ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' and ''WarioWare: D.I.Y.'', the games are always provided by both him and 18-Volt. However, it isn't known how much he shares in the creation of the games. For example, in ''WarioWare: Touched!'' 9-Volt says "our games", but in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' he just speaks about "my games" in the character select menu, plus 18-Volt isn't even mentioned by name in the menu. |
|
| |
|
| As a playable character, 9-Volt rides his skateboard moving along the ground side to side. His movement cannot be manually controlled, and he turns around and travel the opposite direction if he reaches a solid surface or a bump. Pressing {{button|switch|a}} makes him stop moving and throw a yo-yo upwards. Although his attack is one of the strongest in the game (e.g. [[Rock-a-Bye]], one of 4 microgames considered a good fit) and useful in forcing objects upward (e.g. [[Face Wash]], another good fit), this is completely overshadowed by his inability to be manually controlled through movement. The yo-yo is also ineffective in moving objects horizontally (e.g. [[Sleep Clinic]], [[Slathered in Ketchup]]). These disadvantages require the player to precisely time their attacks to pass microgames. Like 18-Volt, rings are featured in microgames that either prioritize vertical movement (e.g. [[Great Escape]]) or require positioning 9-Volt in a specific area due to the lack of movement control (e.g. [[Hide-and-Seek]]). 9-Volt can throw his yo-yo onto the rings to grab them, and {{button|switch|leftstick}} can be used to change the direction he is facing before the player detaches him from the ring. Because of the extensive amount of disadvantages compared to the few advantages, 9-Volt has 25 microgames deeming him a bad fit (the most out of any character, tied with [[Kat & Ana]]), and 104 microgames deeming him a below-average fit.
| | The microgames are based on products of [[Nintendo]], mainly on game software and hardware, but also on merchandise from the time before Nintendo became popular as a video game company. Microgames based on the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'']] series are featured in every ''WarioWare'' game. |
|
| |
|
| ====''WarioWare: Move It!''====
| | For ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', 9-Volt creates microgames of the [[List of microgames in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!#Nintendo Classics|Nintendo Classic]]s genre. The games involve various Nintendo products from the 1960s up to the 1990s. ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!'' also feature his Nintendo microgames, plus a multiplayer game made by him, [[Card-e Cards]], which refers to a Nintendo product as well, in this case, the [[e-Reader]]. |

| |
| 9-Volt appears in ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'' where he, along with the rest of the ''WarioWare'' cast, join Wario on his vacation to [[Caresaway Island]]. In 9-Volt's stage, "Quest in the Dark", he is seen along with 18-Volt, 5-Volt, and 13-Amp in [[Pack-'Em-In Plaza]]. 18-Volt calls to 9-Volt to hurry up, who is seen playing a video game on a handheld console. After a while, he notices everyone else is missing and tries to find them. He sees 18-Volt's CD in front of a [[Polario's shop|mysterious store]], and assumes him to be inside. He hears everyone screaming from inside the store, and fearfully enters to find them. 9-Volt reaches a storage room in the back of the store and, to his shock, finds everyone playing on a video game console. [[Shopkeeper Polario]] greets 9-Volt, who becomes distracted by the video games and joins his friends in playing with them.

| | In ''WarioWare: Twisted!'', the microgame set of 9-Volt and 18-Volt is called [[List of microgames in WarioWare: Twisted!#9-Volt and 18-Volt's Microgames: Spintendo Classics|Spintendo Classic]]s. As an exception all microgames are only based on Nintendo Entertainment System games in this game. While the microgames of most of the other developers involve a particular style of gameplay per developer, the microgames of him and him require all kinds of spin techniques. |
| 9-Volt also appears in the second Remix stage, "Pool-Party Panic". After Kat & Ana accidentally get a ball lodged in [[Poolopus]]' mouth, 9-Volt joins the rest of the crew in trying to remove it, only to be flung into the air before landing on a moving tour bus. When the tour bus returns to the pool, 9-Volt, along with the rest of the crew, gets thrown again by Poolopus by his request. | |
|
| |
|
| 9-Volt, along with the rest of the ''WarioWare'' cast appear in the final stage, "Lava at First Sight", where they all dance to defeat [[Volcano Wario]]. After Wario is launched from the volcano, the cast enjoys their vacation, while Wario is stuck inside a temple.
| | In ''WarioWare: Touched!'', the name of 9-Volt and 18-Volt's set of microgames is [[List of microgames in WarioWare: Touched!#Retro Action|Retro Action]]. The choice of Nintendo products is much more versatile than in the prior game again. Also newer products from the 21st century are featured. The microgames include all kinds of ways of using {{button|ds|Stylus}} and also the application of the [[Nintendo DS#Microphone|microphone]], while most other microgame sets involve a particular technique again. |

|
| ===''Wario World''===
| | In ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', 9-Volt and 18-Volt's set of microgames involve all possible forms. Considerably more microgames are based on more recent Nintendo products. An example is [[Brain Age]], which is based on the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''[[wikipedia:Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!|Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!]]'' |
| [[File:WW Microgames Demo 9-Volt.png|frame|left]]
| |
| In ''[[Wario World]]'', an icon of 9-Volt can be found in [[Treasure Square]]. It is used to represent a demo of ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'' consisting of [[Butterfingers (microgame)|Butterfingers]], [[Chicken Pinch]], [[Gold Digger]], [[Ground Control|Paper Plane]], [[Tilt-n-Tumble]], [[Right in the Eye]] and [[Dry Eye]].

|
| ===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
| | In ''WarioWare: D.I.Y.'', 9-Volt returns to his original role by going solo, while his friend 18-Volt is granted with his own microgames in ''WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase''. Despite this, their microgame stages are both Nintendo themed. Akin to ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', 9-Volt's microgames adapt to more recent Nintendo products such as ''[[wikipedia:Wii Fit|Wii Fit]]''. |
| In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], 9-Volt appears in the form of a few collectible items. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', 9-Volt has two [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]]s that can be equipped in the game's [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] mode. One of the stickers increases electric attacks by eight, while the other increases head attacks by five. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', 9-Volt from ''Game & Wario'' is depicted along with his mother, [[5-Volt]], as a ''WarioWare'' series [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]], which can be purchased from the Trophy Shop. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', 9-Volt appears alongside 18-Volt as an Ace-class {{iw|smashwiki|support spirit}}, and equipping it to a fighter grants immunity to electric floors. In the game's [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]] mode, the [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] is located on the [[smashwiki:Base|Base]] sub-map of [[smashwiki:The Light Realm|The Light Realm]], where in the corresponding battle, the player faces against [[Villager]] and [[Incineroar]] on the [[Gamer (stage)|Gamer]] stage. The core obtained from the 9-Volt & 18-Volt spirit can be combined with a Labrador Retriever's core to summon [[nookipedia:K.K. Slider|DJ K.K.]]'s spirit, referencing 9-Volt's DJ hobby. | |
|
| |
|
| In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', one of the names that can be gotten from pressing the "RANDOM NAME" button is "9VOLT".

| |
| ===Physical appearance===
| |
| [[File:9-Volt WarioWare Mega Microgames.png|120px|thumb|left|9-Volt's first design]]
| |
| 9-Volt is a young elementary-schooler; as such, he takes on a short and stubby build. Although he appears throughout the ''WarioWare'' series, his appearance remains consistent. He has round eyes with thick black eyebrows, a button nose, and a cat-like mouth. 9-Volt has light-brown hair framed with star-like whispies. His hair has always been covered until ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'', when his shaggy hairstyle is shown for the first time. In his earlier appearances, his pupils were small, as with [[Wario]]. After the art-style change in ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', his pupils were slightly enlarged and have a brown coloration.
| |
| | |
| He wears a yellow construction helmet that has a green translucent visor, two orange globes on each side, and built-in gray headphones. 9-Volt's shirt, gloves, and boots are colored red, while his triangular shirt collar and puffy pants are olive-green. His short-sleeved shirt has a front pocket bearing the initial of the word "volt". The gloves that he wears are inconsistent in design: they are depicted as either fingerless or fingered gloves.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Game & Wario]]'', he is stylistically drawn in the title screen for his minigame, [[Gamer]], as with the other WarioWare employees. The art-style for this screen resembles cartoons. It features him in a lanky build; and a face with blue eyes with bloodshot sclerae, big ears, red curly hair, and freckles. He also wears a T-shirt with red sleeves which has the number 9 on it, green jeans, and white socks with purple stripes. The general artwork from the same game has his eyes solid-black, like the rest of the cast.
| |
| | |
| As revealed in ''WarioWare: Get It Together!'', he has his own set of pajamas consisting of an orange T-shirt, and shorts which have two stripes on each side. [[:File:WWGIT Gallery 9 Volt 2.png|One of the character gallery artworks]] has 9-Volt in a variation of his regular outfit, albeit without the construction helmet; he has a layered shirt with the initial "9", drawstring shorts with a wide yellow stripe on each side, and red loafers. In [[:File:WWGIT Gallery 5 Volt 5.png|another piece of artwork]], baby 9-Volt is shown with a light-yellow swaddling cloth. He is also drawn in the anime art-style in the title screen for the Variety Pack mode [[Frenemy Frenzy]].
