How much watts you have to cook pizza in a microwave?
Yes, the wattage of the microwave does affect how well it makes popcorn. A low wattage microwave, say 500 watts, will take longer to pop the popcorn (I can remember years and years ago, my first microwave (which was around 500 - 600 watts), taking at least 4 1/2 minutes to make a bag of microwave popcorn) and if it doesn't heat up the oil inside the popcorn sufficiently, the kernel won't explode and "pop". Whereas an 1100 watt microwave like I have now will do the same job in about 2 1/2 minutes.
