Had no idea this existed! Thanks! Have spent the morning with GDQ on one monitor and that site up on the other. Currently watching a Wario Blast run. Fun stuff :)

more serious answer: Wario Syrup Ashley 9-Volt Waluigi ...and yeah, I can't really think of a sixth one I'd want. I feel Wario (in Land form) and Syrup serve as Land reps, Ashley and 9-Volt serve as Ware reps, Waluigi serves as the sports cameos rep... I guess a Rhythm character as the final...

Focus on collecting treasures (stars) as a means to an end, with more treasures meaning better ending(s). Paying a toll to progress deeper into the game. The ground pound, which hadn't been in Mario games prior. Emphasis on picking up and throwing enemies and objects in the environment...

I have to agree. A basically heavy tier Mario with maybe a shoulder barge for his side special would have been fine. Change his fireball to a coin throw (they changed Doctor Mario's to pills, so...), keep the ground pound and up-punch... yeah, I think that would have worked fine.

Master of Disguise is a tricky one to find. There's generally not a lot of interest in running it due to a couple of factors. 1) 3/DS games are hard to record & stream, due to needing a special modded setup, so you don't see a lot of it going on. You can emulate them, but that has it's own...

This just further reinforces my belief that the city in Wario Land II is Big (Ape) City from DK'94 and DKLand. And fuck what I wouldn't give to get my hands on that voxel gba engine from the Banjo-Pilot beta.

Wario Syrup Ashley Waluigi Cannoli and.... everyone already knows that Mr Game & Watch is really the Princess Shokora in disguise :p

"Wario's X" sounds like it could have been a tentative franchise name, looking at Wario's Woods.

Isn't Wario supposed to be taller than Mario? Where did this "short" thing come from?

Wario Land's identity was as the portable Mario platforming series, but with the NSMB and Mario 3D titles existing on both console and handheld, Wario Land has less of a distinct identity than it once did.

It's strange, because New Super Mario Bros. 2 is a Wario Land game disguised as a Mario Bros. game. The main objective, beyond completing levels, is to collect as much loot as possible. Why was that title not New Super Wario Land? Why was it a Mario game?

Yeah, I think the defining part of the game is the fact that is pretty literally a puzzle-platformer. The fact that you actually have to run around as Toad manipulating the puzzle is pretty amazing and sets it apart from titles like Tetris Attack and Puyo Pop.

I have carts/discs of Wario Land 1, 2, 3, 4, Shake, Master of Disguise, World, Blast, Woods (NES), and several of the Wario Ware titles. The thrift shop down the street just got in a used copy of Doctor Mario 64. I'm trying to decide if I can justify the purchase or not...

Shake It, while maybe not up to par with the early Wario Land games, was a glorious return to the Wario Land series, meshing the design sensibility of Wario Land 4 with the treasure hunting and random objective-based gameplay of the earlier Wario Lands, plus Captain Syrup came back! What's not...

Oh yes, even if no crossover ever happens, I would definitely pick Wayforward would be an excellent pick for future Wario platformers.

Word is they took away his shoulder barge and replaced it with a punch. What the fucking fuck fuck

The Shantae series is where I get the same sort of fix I got from the older Wario Land games these days, and I really think the two series would mesh well. Have Risky and Syrup team up against the awkward tag-team of Shantae and Wario, each with their own unique style of "transformation" haha.

Foreman Spike could be Wario's Wario. Like, Wario looks like a decent human being next to him haha. And Syrup and Shokora are his Peach and Rosalina. Waluigi is his Luigi. Rudi can be his Bowser. and make Birdo his Yoshi. Cast complete!

Someone convince WayForward to do a Shantae/Wario crossover game where Risky teams up with Captain Syrup. Shantae can do her genie transformations, and then be completely awed/grossed out by Wario's "transformations".

They really need to come back in the next Wario Land game.
