"Hogan's Alley" is one of the few microgames in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames that is impossible to play indefinitely even with perfect (not humanly achievable) inputs, as it simply starts lacking a win condition after a certain point.
The footage is of the game being played in single-game mode, after clearing 40 rounds, slowed down by a factor of 3 to both reduce flashing and to allow the event to be seen more clearly. Note that the cardboard cutouts, which are supposed to turn around and reveal which one to shoot (with criminals being the correct targets), simply do not fully turn around before the microgame ends.
This makes it impossible to shoot the correct one because internally, the "correct one" does not even exist at that point, as the winning condition is only assigned to the cutouts after they fully turn around.

(i thought making this would be worth a shot at least. a good amount of these are about gameplay itself because i like hearing about gameplay specifics)
1. What WarioWare games have you played? (And do you have favorites?)
2. Any favorite characters from the series?
3. Do you make any fanworks for WarioWare or its characters? (Or how else do you generally show that you like the series?)
4. Do you have any personal headcanons or interpretations of the characters? (In relation to design, hobbies, connections to other characters, etc)
5. Do you have favorite or least favorite microgames?
6. Are there any songs from WarioWare you listen to often?
7. Would you be open to WarioWare characters showing up in other Mario spinoff content? (Ex: as playable characters in Mario Kart)
8. Have you played any other games that are similar to WarioWare's gameplay design? (Or are there ones you've wanted to look into?)
9. Do you have favorite minigames? (Not microgame, this is in reference to unlockable side games such as the Pyoro games)
10. You can choose 1 from the series character to get an official plush or figurine, who will it be?
(Some more questions that are completely game specific)
11. If you've played multiplayer Mega Party Game$!, do you have a 'main' character you go for while playing?
12. If you've played Get It Together!, do you have a favorite character (or set of characters) to use?
13. If you've played Smooth Moves or Move It!, do you have a favorite Form in those games?
14. If you've played D.I.Y., do you have any microgames, records or comics you're proud to have made?
15. If you've played Gold, which microgame type is your favorite? (Mash, Twist, Touch)
16. If you've played Game & Wario, what is your favorite minigame? (Either singleplayer or multiplayer)
17. If you've played Nintendo Badge Arcade, do you own any WarioWare related badges?
On the one hand, Wario's employees account for something like 85% of the female characters with recurring speaking roles across the entire Super Mario franchise, but on the other hand, he's canonically violating multiple child labour laws and once stuffed a preteen girl into a cannon and shot her into the sea, so it's tough to say how much credit he really deserves for his equal opportunity hiring practices.
Top: as I previously pointed out in a 2022 post on the Supper Mario Broth twitter.com account, there are extremely few characters with their birthdays explicitly given in official Mario media. One of them is 5-Volt, whose birthday (March 13) was stated once, in a blog post on the 2003 official Japanese website for WarioWare: Mega Microgames. Note that this was before 5-Volt even appeared as a character; the birthday was simply attributed to the then unnamed and unseen "9-Volt's mother" at that point.
Bottom: surprisingly, 20 years later, this obscure snippet of lore was brought back in official capacity on Nintendo's new WarioWare, Inc. portal website, where she mentions that her birthday is March 13. This may be one of the most in-depth pieces of trivia that Nintendo referenced in official material decades after they were first published.
