==Modes==

In this mode, each player is required to eliminate all viruses from the jar. Unlike ''Dr. Mario'', this mode can only be played with the {{button|wii|Wiimote}}. Up to four players can participate in this mode. In this mode, the interface is represented by multiple Miis fighting off a horde of viruses, where if the player(s) are performing well, the viruses will be pushed back, but if they are at a disadvantage, the Miis are the ones being pushed back. The difficulty determines not only how soon more capsules are added to the stage at once (up to three of them), but also the time it takes for each set of capsules to be added. Unlike the ''Dr. Mario'' mode, the preview only shows one next set of capsules, as opposed to three capsules.

*The amount of capsules that drop into the jar is increased the longer the game is played.

*New capsules can be added even though the existing capsules have not landed yet. This is most evident at higher difficulties.

Depending on the level, the starting amount of viruses are as follows:

''The doctor is in! Mario takes a break from his adventuring ways and once again dons his stethoscope for a new generation of germ-battling mayhem. In addition to the classic mode of using vitamins to exterminate viruses, you'll find two battle modes and an online multiplayer mode where you can hone your skills against players from around the world. Feel like challenging a friend who doesn't have Dr. Mario Online Rx? Then the WiiWare-exclusive Friend Battle Demo is just what the doctor ordered. Or maybe you'd like some help taking on those nasty Viruses? Try out Virus Buster, where four players can simultaneously move capsules simply by pointing at them with a Wii Remote controller. Any way you look at it, Dr. Mario Online Rx is a prescription for fun that everyone can enjoy!''

==Trivia==

*Virus Buster in its original form was designed to help players relax instead of training their brains in ''Brain Age 2''. It even includes relaxing arrangements of the classic ''Dr. Mario'' music.

*In the Virus Buster game, if the player presses {{button|wii|A}} while their cursor is on a Mii while in game, it will say something such as, ''"Good luck, Dr. Mario!"'' or ''"The more bitter the medicine, the better!"'' Sometimes, the Miis will tell the player information concerning the actual gameplay, such as how many minutes have passed and how many capsules they've thrown. If the player presses {{button|wii|A}} while their cursor is on a Virus, it smiles to the front.
