* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Despite being the BigBad of most games of the series and being considered as Light and friends' ArchEnemy, Dr. Warumon falls square in this trope, as his [[EvilPlan Evil Plans]] and his [[ArtifactOfDoom Artifacts of Doom]] get invariably thwarted and destroyed by the heroes, and like [[{{Pokemon}} Team Rocket]], needs to resort to part-time jobs to fund his next line of evil inventions. He's also made fun of ''very'' frequently.

''Twinbee'' is a long-running CuteEmUp series by {{Creator/Konami}}, makers of ''VideoGame/{{Gradius}}''. It's a much more light-hearted top-down entry into the genre, with the main ships being sentient beings with arms and legs and fighting enemies like watermelon slices and ladybugs.

In its original format, only one of the games managed to be released in North America -- ''Moero Twinbee: Cinamon Hakasei wo Sukue'' became ''Stinger'' upon translation. Unfortunately, that one is widely considered to be the weakest in the series, which resulted in [[NoExportForYou none of the games getting exported for a long time]]. Much to the United States' detriment, of course, as later games managed to make some great improvements to the basic setup (including a LifeMeter and a plot).
