It is an extension of the Dolphin (GameCube) SDK. It is no longer available from official sources, since WarioWorld is closed. However, Nintendo's Software Development Support Group (SDSG) still has access to it. Early versions of the SDK consisted of only the WPAD and KPAD libraries, and some early documentation; they were used as extensions/patches for the GameCube SDK.
