In the epilogue of Wario's second story, Dribble & Spitz confront Wario with the rest of the WarioWare, Inc. staff to demand their pay. When he runs away, they are shocked. They later watch his rocketship fall into the sea after [[Dr. Crygor]] bumps into it. Dribble also appears in an unlockable minigame called [[VS Dong Dong]], where he fights against [[Mona]].

In ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', Dribble & Spitz's microgames are of the [[List of WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! microgames#Sci-Fi|Sci-Fi]] genre. For the entirety of the stage, the song "[[Drifting Away]]" plays. ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!'' also features Dribble & Spitz's Sci-Fi microgames, as well as a mini-game created by them called [[Milky Way Delirium]], which uses similarly themed elements.

In ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!]]'', Dribble & Spitz are traveling around Diamond City, where they are called upon by a woman who is really [[Orbulon]] in disguise. She asks them to take her to the farthest reaches of outer space, which Dribble happily agrees to. After driving on a stretch of road, the taxi flies into space. When they arrive, Orbulon's disguise wears off. After passing by a planetoid, the taxi gets dragged into the [[Oinker|UFO]] and Orbulon, after thanking Dribble & Spitz, makes them his underlings. The two shout "numbskull" at Orbulon, causing a nearby asteroid to approach the UFO. It misses them, but more asteroids hit the UFO and causes it to fall back down to Earth and land in Dr. Crygor's laboratory. The three greet him when he falls back into his lab. After, Dribble & Spitz use their taxi to float on water, and they, Orbulon and Dr. Crygor travel to the mainland. During the journey, Spitz tunes in to watch the Super Show. They are also seen at [[Restaurant Sora Sora]].

Dribble & Spitz's Sci-Fi microgames return in this game. The two also host the multiplayer mode [[Milky Way Delirium]]. They are also available to play as in the multiplayer modes. When played as, Dribble's and Spitz's entire outfits excluding Dribble's watch and the base of Spitz's goggles are tinted in the player's color.

In ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', Dribble & Spitz drive through [[Interstate 310]], where Spitz fiddles about with the taxi radio. Suddenly, the taxi breaks down, and during their microgames stage, they try to fix it. They fix it in the end, but Dribble decides to push a button that transforms the taxi, and takes them into space. Before long, they pick up an alien customer that asks them to take it to [[Club Sugar]]. When they arrive, they dance on the dance floor. They make another appearance in the epilogue of [[Wario-Man]]'s story, driving in their taxi.

Dribble & Spitz's microgames in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' involve a particular style of gameplay rather than a specific visual theme, which was also continued for the next games in the series until ''WarioWare: D.I.Y.'' In this game, their set of microgames is called Steer Clear and require tilting the Game Boy Advance and pressing the {{button|gba|A}} Button. Before their stage begins, the player can choose between the songs "[[Dribble & Spitz (souvenir)|Dribble & Spitz]]" and "[[Taxi Sonata]]" and a baseball game to play in the background.


Dribble & Spitz also appear in ''[[WarioWare Twisted Marble Maze Game]]'', where they can both be seen on the Round 3 board.

Dribble & Spitz appear once again in ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]''. On the map, Dribble repeatedly eats a chocolate bar and gets choked up, surprising Spitz. In their opening movie, a curtain rises as spotlights move around. Once they converge on a sign with their names on it, the light expands and they rise from their taxi. Spitz gives off a meow before the scene fades to black. In their story, the two clean their taxi, glad that the weather has turned out to be nice after all. Suddenly a young woman arrives, asking for a ride to a place called [[Tomorrow Hill]]. When they arrive, they are shocked to see that a giant [[Alien Mitzi's Spaceship|spaceship]] has descended to the edge of Tomorrow Hill. The young lady transforms into an alien named [[Alien Mitzi|Mitzi]] and departs using the spaceship, leaving her hat behind. Once they get over their shock, Dribble & Spitz realize that Mitzi did not pay the fare. During [[Tiny Wario]]'s epilogue cutscene, Spitz is seen holding [[Red (WarioWare series)|Red]] by the tail while Dribble watches nearby as Wario gets chased by some [[Splunk]]s.

In ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', Dribble & Spitz's set of microgames involve the forms The Remote Control, The Umbrella, The Dumbbell, The Janitor and The Mohawk. However, the second part of their boss microgame, [[Boot Camp]], involves The Elephant. The song "Tomorrow Hill" plays throughout the stage.


Dribble has his own blog entries at the official Japanese website of the game. His profile mentions his hobby is sewing and that he is famous for his driving, which is described as "thrilling like a roller-coaster ride." His boss, Spitz, is said to occasionally space out.

In ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', they are once again recruited by Wario to make games for him after Wario runs out of money. This time the games are for the [[Wario Bowl]], Wario's gaming tournament. They host the third stage of the Mash League, which involves their fantasy microgames. In their stage, Dribble & Spitz drive their taxi across [[The Farthest Edge of Space]], just after their last passenger stiffed them. The Farthest Edge of Space is currently occupied by the [[Space Gangs]], who fire lasers everywhere. One of them nearly hits the taxt. Spitz tries to tell Dribble about "stayin' cool", but when a second laser beam hits the taxi and nearly knocks the duo out, Spitz declares war on the Space Gangs. He tells Dribble to bring out the [[octoblazooka]], and they dive into combat despite Dribble insisting they should stay cool. Their stage has them fight the UFOs, with every microgame being represented by Spitz firing the octoblazooka. Success brings down a UFO; failure lets the UFO dodge. Eventually, they chase away the remaining UFOs and make it back home, with Spitz standing by his philosophy of "stayin' cool", despite his rage earlier. This annoys Dribble.

Eventually, they chase away the remaining UFOs and make it back home, with Spitz standing by his philosophy of "stayin' cool", despite his rage earlier.


Dribble & Spitz are later seen having a potluck with [[9-Volt]], [[18-Volt]], [[5-Volt]], [[Orbulon]], [[Mike]], [[Fronk]], [[Ashley]], and [[Red (WarioWare series)|Red]] at [[Peridot Campgrounds]], forming the [[List of WarioWare Gold microgames#Potluck Gang|Potluck Gang]]. The Potluck Gang is the host of the second stage in the Ultra League. Dribble and Spitz bring ingredients for s'mores and chicken respectively. When Ashley reveals that she brought a [[Mandrake|mandrake root]] for her ingredient, Spitz plays a prank on Red by crying like a mandrake, causing him to faint. They all play a card game together, which is the framing device for the Potluck Gang's stage. Dribble and Spitz play a card when one of their microgames are played, though the Touch Screen only displays a card representing Dribble. After the potluck, Dribble suggests they invite Wario for the next potluck and they all agree to have one tomorrow.

They are last seen asking Wario along with the rest of the characters for their share of the earnings from the Wario Bowl, with Dribble demanding where their "cut" is. After Wario drops the suitcase and [[Young Cricket]] holds him down, the suitcase opens up and Spitz comments about how shiny the coins within are. The group splits the money between themselves, Wario, and the [[Mii|player]].

Dribble hosts the Challenge mode [[WarioWare Gold#Cruise Controls|Cruise Controls]], where the player drives the duo's taxi in a race against black cars. Both Dribble and Spitz are offscreen. The Spitz dolls normally inside the taxi representing lives are replaced by Dribble dolls. In the mode, the player has to complete 15 Mash microgames as fast as possible. Instead of microgames having higher speeds as the mode progresses, the player manually chooses how fast or slow the microgames play out by tilting the 3DS up and down.


The game depicts Dribble with an inconsistent number of fingers. In most cutscenes, he is depicted with only four fingers on each hand. However, his Mash League artwork, Potluck Gang stage sprites, and cast roll artwork depict him with five fingers on each hand.

Dribble is treated as the primary character of the duo in many cases across ''WarioWare Gold''. He is the only one present on the radio in the Index for their microgames, the only one with an [[Alarm Clock (souvenir)|Alarm Clock]], and the only one who speaks in text in Story mode's and Challenge mode's menus.

Their stage is the Fantasy 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 take note of the corruption that the [[Game bug|game bugs]] have caused, and as Wario sarcastically dismisses the state of the game, Mona immediately reprimands him. They suddenly notice Dribble & Spitz, with the former stating that they've been looking for Wario and co. Dribble states that he had seen corruptions all over the game (with Mona commenting on the dilemma). Without hesitation, the duo prepare to exterminate the game bugs.

In their story, Dribble & Spitz host a tour titled the Outta This World Tour, where they take customers to see the stars as well as other sights in space. They descend on a planet and pick up four purple aliens, and then travel to a green planet. After their stage is cleared, the duo joins the gang, with Spitz commenting, "Ha HA!

However, they soon remember other people were left behind in the game world, and immediately return to rescue them.

Unlike most playable characters, Dribble is controlled by Player 1 and Spitz is controlled by Player 2. With the exception of the Variety Pack and select Wario Cup challenges, the player always controls Dribble in single-player. As playable characters, Dribble & Spitz fly around in their taxis with {{button|switch|leftstick}}. Pressing {{button|switch|a}} makes them fire a bullet from their bazookas; Dribble faces and shoots bullets to the right, and Spitz faces and shoots to the left. This ability allows them to clear microgames that feature objects easily targeted at a horizontal range (e.g. [[Is Anyone Home?]] and [[Animal Crossing: New Leaf]], the 2 microgames that consider them a good fit). Although there are no microgames that deem them a bad fit, the inability to fire projectiles vertically requires them to use their body to move objects (e.g. [[Piggy Pluck]] and [[The Vampire Arose]], two of 6 microgames that deem them a below-average fit). Dribble's fixed shooting direction may also toughen the player's ability to pass microgames with targets to his left, with major examples being [[Wobble Boxing]] and [[There's a Monster Behind You!]], which are especially difficult in single-player, requiring the player to find alternate ways to clear the games. Dribble & Spitz have 138 microgames that deem them an above-average fit, and 66 microgames considered an average fit.

If the player wins a microgame, Dribble flexes his right arm upward with a happy expression while Spitz gives the peace sign with a smile. Failure of a microgame causes Dribble to flex his right arm downward with an angry expression while Spitz scratches his bazooka.

Dribble & Spitz appear in ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'', where they are invited along with the rest of the WarioWare Inc. crew to [[Caresaway Island]]. In the opening of their stage, the duo are shown relaxing aboard their taxi, which has been converted into a motorboat. Spitz wakes up Dribble upon realizing that they have inadvertently floated onto the starting line of the Caresaway Grand Prix. Despite their initial confusion, the duo enthusiastically join the race. Later, they are shown to be in the lead; however, a seagull landing on a directional sign causes it to flip, sending Dribble & Spitz, along with most of their competitors, in the wrong direction. They continue racing off into the sunset, unaware that the [[High-Octane Hippo]] won the Grand Prix.

The duo also appear in the final stage of Story Mode alongside the rest of Wario's friends (besides Wario himself, who has been merged with Perspiration Peak Volcano). Dribble & Spitz are both seen expressing shock at the [[Volcano Wario|erupting volcano]], before dancing with the others to calm the volcano down.

==Microgames==
Dribble & Spitz come with their own set of microgames in all games of the ''WarioWare'' series, except for ''WarioWare: Touched!'' Their stages are occasionally accompanied by full-length, vocal songs that play on their taxi's radio.
 
In ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', Dribble & Spitz's microgames are of the [[List of microgames in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!#Sci-Fi|Sci-Fi]] genre. For the entirety of the stage, the song "[[Drifting Away]]" plays. ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!'' also features Dribble & Spitz's Sci-Fi microgames, as well as a mini-game created by them called [[Milky Way Delirium]], which uses similarly themed elements.
 
Dribble & Spitz's microgames in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' involve a particular style of gameplay rather than a specific visual theme, which was also continued for the next games in the series until ''WarioWare: D.I.Y.'' In this game, their set of microgames is called Steer Clear and require tilting the Game Boy Advance and pressing the {{button|gba|A}} Button. Before their stage begins, the player can choose between the songs "[[Dribble & Spitz (souvenir)|Dribble & Spitz]]" and "[[Taxi Sonata]]" to play in the background.
 
In ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', Dribble & Spitz's set of microgames involve the forms The Remote Control, The Umbrella, The Dumbbell, The Janitor and The Mohawk. However, the second part of their boss microgame, [[Boot Camp]], involves The Elephant. The song "[[Tomorrow Hill]]" plays throughout the stage.
 
In ''WarioWare: D.I.Y Showcase'', Dribble & Spitz return to their original role and host a new set of Sci-Fi games again.
 
In ''WarioWare Gold'', Dribble & Spitz are part of the Mash League, hosting Fantasy themed microgames for it.
 
In ''WarioWare: Get It Together!'', Dribble & Spitz developed the Fantasy level.
 
In ''WarioWare: Move It!'', Dribble & Spitz's stage introduce Button prompts, which are used alongside most of the forms introduced in previous stages.

==Notes==
==Trivia==
*Even though Spitz's eyes are always squinting, he opens them fully in ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' in [[Hockey (souvenirs)#Spitz Hockey|Spitz Hockey]], when he wins and at the beginning of a microgame in his stage, and in ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', if the player clicks the Dribble icon and waits for a moment, in which (in both cases) they are revealed to resemble real cat eyes. However, In ''Game & Wario'', they are opened once more, but this time look like black dots. This is retconned in ''WarioWare Gold'' however, where his eyes are completely circular and wide.

*Spitz is the only character to not have a unique line for losing a microgame where they are a good fit; instead, he says "What a joke!", which may be uttered in an IQ-based or choice-based microgame.
