Could you get the best ending in Wario Land 1 with no treasures?

If you spent a very long time collecting coins?

Because from what I recall, you needed the maximum amount of coins in the game to pay the genie for the best ending (the planet with Wario's face on). 99,999 coins to be precise.

What happens if you get that without any treasures? I mean, it'd take a very long time (probably about 100 run throughs of a single level with the debug cheat set to monetise your money to 999), but what would happen if you did it?

Mario Wiki implies you'd only get the 2nd best ending... but has anyone tested it? Do you still somehow only get about five money bags despite being absolutely loaded with cash?
 
Good question! I gotta try it. But I was able to get max coins, missing one treasure, and I think I got the Castle ending...

Ugh....dammit....I think I might try this.
 
I feel like you'd still get it as long as you had 99999 coins. Hmmm. I don't think anyone's gonna do the trick to find out, though!
 
Turns out you can't. In order to get the best ending, you need to give 6 bags of money to the genie. However, getting 99999999 coins only gives you 5. The 6th bag is given to you upon collecting all treasures.

Slightly disappointing, but nice to have confirmation anyway.
