    Wario Forums is on TV Tropes!

    I'm far from a TV Tropes connoisseur, however, if my memory serves me well, there is indeed a firm rule against troping living, breathing people as if they were characters in some soap opera. Multiple pages have been removed -- "zapped", in TV Tropes terms -- for this very reason. Nevertheless...

    Happy Barfday, my good sir. Here's to one day closer to Death. Cheers! ...Now then, where's that scrumptious ice cream cake I've been hearing about, hum?

    How so? Through tutorials? Champ, I believe you've missed my point-- those manuals were more than merely a lifeless, bland source of information on the game's mechanics. They acted as an independent source of joy and entertainment from the video game. Quite simply, this is no longer present, be...

    I must agree with Angler. This is one topic I've raved on relentlessly in the past, and for good reason; manuals were much more than tutorials. They were a fascinating peek into the world, it's story and inhabitants, adding such a powerful richness to many games that would feel quite bland...

    Oh my. As for me, my hobby as a closet artist began a mere two or so years ago, but you've been at it for quite a while, eh? Lessons will most certainly put you a few steps ahead of the crowd, however, I find that, to develop a true confidence with the art form, it's essential that one spend...

    To be completely frank, yes, the forums have been going through quite an unfortunate spell lately. I suppose all us simple folk can do is hope for the best, and do what we can to keep the others' once-jubilant spirits alive, though I can't fathom that CM30 would even begin to consider giving our...

    By Jove, the good Angler of Lake Asparagus is back in action once again, if a bit worn from battle. Ah, there's the oven; that wholesome "slumber pie" of yours must be ready! All levity aside, part 2 of my analysis for Animation Appreciation will be up and running soon enough. Ideally, it would...

    D'aw, taking your leave again? Happy trails and a pleasant escapade anyhow, Angler. Adieu.

    Animation Appreciation

    Ooh! What a distinctive concept that is. Certainly a breath of fresh breath of air from today's cynical sense of humor, found so prevalent on the internet. An animated show unquestionably holds monumental potential for audiences of all kinds; bare in mind that wide audience appeal is something...

    Animation Appreciation

    Absolutely. In fact, it wasn't until recent years that us fans were granted such an incredible insight into the film's production, you know. For over 60 years, animation buffs' only source of information on Disney's features were a handful of books, most notably The Illusion of Life, a...

    Animation Appreciation

    After many indecisive rewrites, I have ultimately decided to split my analysis of Milt Kahl's art into three parts: one discussing the animator himself (Part 1), another detailing his many characters individually (Part 2), and finally a deeper look at his animation and design (Part 3). I...

    And then ANOTHER newcomer arrives!

    Ahoy there! As per the usual, I'm late to the greeting party; welcome aboard, anyhow, Mrs. Zipp. Always a real pleasure to see new, quality members around our humble abode. I'm adoring that Tanooki Suit avatar, too. As one who was born raised on those two consoles, along with the NES, somehow I...

    Dream Job

    Oh my. Re-reading one's oldest posts never fails to be quite a "cringeworthy" experience, however, this one is much too amusingly awful to pay it no mind. Let's dissect this atrocity for a moment: Score? Since when were video game soundtracks "scores"? Tsk tsk. "Successful" contains three S's...

    Share your latest acquisitions!

    Hoho, a thread to gloat and boast over my vast collection? I'll bite. These beauties (namely; Japanese imports of the Super Donkey Kong trilogy or, as us Westerners dub it, Donkey Kong Country, along with five N64 titles, being Banjo-Tooie, Yoshi's Story, Banjo-Kazooie, Kirby 64: The Crystal...

    "he did the soundtracks of all Donkey Kong Country from Snes" Contrary to this popular misconception, he in fact did not compose every last tune of the DKC trilogy; a very sizable credit would be awarded to Eveline Fischer Novakovic, a stupendous composer who, unfortunately, is oftentimes...

    Does your IRL personality fit your online persona?

    If there's ever been one prime rule to live by on the internet, it's "if you would not say it in person, don't say it online." No shield of anonymity can change the simple fact that you are interacting and talking to another human being. It's absurd, the amount of people who don't seem to grasp...
