  1. Boris Carloft's Car Loft

    Word of mouth says that it's Japanese, but I'm pretty sure it's just some wacky scat singing.

    DK Vine

    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...

    The Aldegara Waterfall Tribe

    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...

    Why is there a train in Wario's basement?

    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...

    @wariolandgoldpiramid, It was in your "Wario Land 3 Monopoly" thread. @Crescent-Moon Villager, No? I was just curious. Nothing about my post warranted such a rating, and I know misclicks have happened in the past. No big dip, bucko.

    Well, blast... There's my first negative rating. Why did you rate one of my old posts "boring"? Did you just mis-click?

    I am back!

    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.

    Terrific interview. I've always had a humongous amount of respect for the original core team at Rare, so it's great to have some insight into their production process. Hats off to Mr. Machacek... What a resume he must have.

    Advertising WarioWare Gold Ourselves?

    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...

    Warioware Gold Discussion

    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.

    @Metal, This is probably a little "before your time", but have you ever considered watching The Original Series? There are some truly excellent pieces of sci-fi drama ("The Doomsday Machine"!) sprinkled in there, although it may have its duller points, i.e. the majority of season 3. I grew up...

    @MonaWare, Are you talking about the pale yellow of my username or the "golden" text on my subtitle? Either way, I don't think they're that obnoxious, personally. I suppose I could change it to something more muted if it genuinely bugs you...

    Wario-related randomness

    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...

    Post interesting Wario Land trivia here

    I remember hearing that somewhere a while back. Hopefully he's still planning on giving it a look. Also, in addition to that Wario Land 3 interview, there's a really nice one for Super Mario Land 2 as well (properly translated by Mr. shmuplations this time). They talk much more about the game...

    Post interesting Wario Land trivia here

    This has most likely been posted a few times around these forums already, but: A rare surviving interview with R&D1 can still be found on Nintendo's JP website. It focuses on Wario Land 3, which appears to have just completed production at the time of the interview. There don't appear to be any...
