What's the story you can take away here? Someone using a stylus pen to tug on a mustache? That may be showing off a game feature, but it's not a story. At most, the image gives some hints into the ornery nature of Wario’s personality, but even that barely comes through with a partial depiction of his face.

The artwork is also lacking, with overly simplistic lines to show movement of the stylus pen, ugly background coloring, and scribble around the border that looks like it was drawn by someone’s cat holding the stylus pen. I'm sure the border was an intentional design choice, but that doesn't make it a good one, and there's not enough of Wario to make this cover work.

The one saving grace of this cover is it is somewhat novel in presentation given the decision to show only some of Wario’s features without an actual face. No doubt this was intended to accentuate his personality, although I think they could have done a better job with that.
