After hearing almost nothing since before E3 2006 on the latest Wario platformer, the latest issue of Nintendo Dream has shots and info on the forthcoming Nintendo DS adventure.

Details are scarce for us English-only readers, but it appears that Wario will have a total of seven "disguises" that will help him progress through levels. These disguises appear to be enabled by using the stylus to draw things—like SCUBA helmets for underwater zones, for example.

As the resident Wario uber-fanboy at Kotaku, I'm desperately trying to contain my enthusiasm for this game. However, I humbly and sincerely request that you check out the latest shots over at Jeux France. It may not have the art style that I prefer, but, for crying out loud, it's WARIO. Michael McWhertor
