This thread is stupid and anyone who takes part in it is stupid. 259.

I'd like to see someone leak the source code for WL4 only to find that it's secretly a super high-tech AI that tries to steal your credit card info.

Well, it's hard to really credit any one individual with Wario's creation, since the furthest back we can trace his conception is to the throwaway idea for his punny name, which in and of itself was the result of an ol' "group think" at R&D1. However, Wario's final design and personality was all...

No. Gold's art direction can't decide if it wants to be manga-style, classic Warioware-style, or extremely geometric (I mean it -- why are some characters constructed with very basic, jagged forms and shapes while others look like baby-faced chibi characters?) In short, it's pretty awful for an...

Yeah -- Demon Head easily takes the cake for most unsettling boss, I'd say. Beyond his, er... Demonic appearance, his introduction is perhaps what defines his creep factor best. That, and the fact that he finds amusement in squashing/burning/bombing poor Wario to death, cackling whenever the...

Personally, I've always liked that they take their discussion seriously. Unlike this site (no offense, CM30), people aren't afraid of putting their opinions out there and just having good, heated debate. I mean, there are some genuinely bad apples in the DK Vine community who just want to start...

Veteran DK Viner, here! DK Vine may have a certain reputation as an old stinkhole where jaded Donkey Kong fans go to bitch & moan, but, as is typical of the hyperbole of the internet, that's a poor generalization of what is actually a very warm and good-humored community. To me, personally, DK...

Great post, Mr. "Virtual Boy Apologist"! I used to be the self-proclaimed champion of the Virtual Boy / VB Wario Land 'round these parts, so it's great to see somebody else who shares my views. Virtual Boy Wario Land is an utterly spectacular game in just about every respect, but I've always...

I always interpreted the Cellar chapter's setting as an old, abandoned network of underground mineshafts rather than Wario's "basement". The train/subway network is probably just another remnant of the old mining complex. Even if the whole shebang actually is Wario's property (which seems a...

Great to see you back in action again, Cannoli! I reckon we could always use a few more defendants of "Master of Disguise" 'round these parts... I look forward to your postings in the future.

An intrepid idea, but I doubt a few sidebar ads would have much of an impact on the game's sales figures. Let's be realistic; this is WarioWare, one of the most niche core franchises of Nintendo's modern repertoire. By virtue of that fact, Gold's audience is already decidedly small, but take...

Ah... I haven't been feeling this game at all over the past three months, but I'll be damned if that trailer didn't get me on board. Now that we've seen some more of the artwork, it's actually begun to grow on me, slightly. And how about Wario doing some good old-fashioned treasure hunting? What...

It gets better. By the way, Metal, did you receive an alert when MonaWare posted that @mention? I didn't get anything. Odd.

You mean Wario's cackles and grunts during the big showdown? You can thank Kazumi Totaka for that. He was a sound design wizard. Really, everything about that battle was prestigious in terms of presentation -- the dynamic music, chasing Wario deeper into the castle, his different power-ups...
