    cool freaking orbulon plushie

    Very nice!! I especially like the glasses, they look like a firmer material that holds in place well.

    Would this be better Smash Bros representation for Wario?

    I think it's possible to pull from multiple titles. Maybe a large portion could be dedicated to Wario's castle as a central area to explore, with some smaller landmarks surrounding it such as the S.S. Tea Cup and the cave where the music box from 3 is found.

    Which of these villains should return?

    I still think Syrup is the only recurring character here I'd enjoy seeing anew. Every other villain served their purpose in their games, though I wouldn't be opposed to exploring the Shake King's dynamic of "Wario who fully indulged villainy" again. Perhaps a more fleshed-out reimagining of...

    Would this be better Smash Bros representation for Wario?

    I like pretty much all of the cosmetic stuff here, like giving his black and white alt back, better taunts and poses, and extra songs and spirits. Some of the moves are good, like swapping the chomp for a shaky grab, giving him some more visceral throws, and the earthquake punch for down smash...

    Fan Game F3 Trailer for Wario's Conquest + SML2 Reclaimed!

    This looks incredible!! From this trailer alone I can tell how much of a love letter it is to every Wario-related game. I'd be fascinated to see how all of these elements intersect together when I play it. Can't wait!

    Should Wario be invincible?

    I think this mechanic moreso depends on the type of game the developers want to design. 1 and VB have their systems mostly due to not having a different direction than "slightly different Mario" yet, but in II and 3 the invincibility feels very deliberate to further emphasize the puzzle solving...

    Ni?

    Huh, I don't think I've ever noticed a lack of ni~ when I play the game. Though I guess the "original hardware" comment means it is possible to play back on emulation, so that may explain it. I can think of a few knights who may have demanded such a high quality sound effect...

    I was hoping this was just fatigue from Dream Team, but after trudging through some more... Paper Jam really does stink a lot. There's such a cynical edge to the little writing that isn't made funny at all by how stock and standardized everything feels. I'm probably going to end up ditching my...

    Where is Diamond City Located?

    I second this concept. Sarasaland is sort of a parallel Mushroom Kingdom, Wario being a parallel Mario in many ways... it makes the most sense to me for Diamond City to be a more modern "tourist trap" locale there.

    I moreso agree. On one hand I like to commend people as a courtesy who did a bit of work to get something that I'm using for free... on the other hand, sprite ripping is strictly a nonprofit hobby, and it is monumentally easier to rip/recreate preexisting material than it is to say, draw...

    Wario Land Oddities: Even the Music!

    Forgive me if this has been brought up before, but it may be worth reiterating... The original Wario Land came off the heels of Mario's latest 2D platformer for 14 years, Super Mario Land 2, and in many regards it tries to subvert the expectations of what you'd expect in the red plumber's...

    Update... yeah I'm officially tapped out of Dream Team. I was actually making decent headway on the Giant Bowser fight, but the gyro phrase at the very end was completely broken, unless there was some other method to it than holding the console upright and tilting it. What puts me off more was...

    Favourite video game soundtracks?

    Now that I'm nearing the end of Dream Team, I agree that is has the best soundtrack of the series. Much more emotionally resonant than what came before! There was one track I completely forgot about that was a particular highlight (spoiled since it is very endgame and worth the reveal) Outside...

    Hardmode Zeekeeper nearly filtered me from my M&L marathon... but I beat it. The saga continues!! Thank goodness there are no more annoying battles that rely on the ever delicate touch screen and gyroscope in that game.

    Game Concept: Mario & Luigi... & WARIO! (& Waluigi)

    I love the idea of having all four move in a diamond pattern that matches the buttons!! In my original concept I was thinking the areas where all four could traverse together (let's call it the overworld) there would be enemies that pay out much less XP, to further incentivize separating the...

    Game Concept: Mario & Luigi... & WARIO! (& Waluigi)

    After an overnight brainstorm, I came up with a concept that initiates and justifies this format: In the prologue of the adventure before the rhythm of having 4 characters, scouters of an ancient temple (maybe outside of the Mushroom Kingdom? I'm not fond of when certain sequels reinvent it)...

    Game Concept: Mario & Luigi... & WARIO! (& Waluigi)

    (source) It's been a while since Ilini had a proper text regurgitation session! You have been warned. I have recently been on a "Mario & Luigi" series marathon (currently nearing the end of Bowser's Inside Story) building up to Brothership, the one title I haven't played yet. Due to having...

    What are your favourite normal enemies in the series?

    The Pirate Gooms and D.D.s from the early titles are very memorable to me. I also like that weird bird-bat-pig thing from 4, as well as the robotic bird. Looks pretty cool for an enemy that dies when Wario bumps into it! I'm also very amused by some of the more generic enemies in the earlier...

    Where did the 'Plumber's Cave' song come from?

    This fascinated me enough to dig a little deeper, with how much it doesn't sound like a track Nintendo would ever approve of for any game, let alone Wario... but all I've found is a separate upload from around the same year (albeit some months later): I assume the "TF2" in the title refers to...

    Wario Land 1 has been added to Nintendo Switch Online

    The saga continues... but this is still pretty welcome news.
