Wario can reach his thumb with his pinky while posing a W in drawings:

However, his 3d model cannot:

Heck, you're right. Pretty funny actually.

Mario Kart 64 is the second game to hint Wario being a fan of motorcycles.

"That rascal Wario was in charge of the design and construction of this course. A fan of motocross races, he brought in major amounts of sand to fill this huge stadium in an attempt to build a course more suitable to bikes than Karts. Each lap's distance is extremely long, making it difficult to stay concentrated on the race."

Wonder if Waluigi likes them as well? He had a similar stadium in Mario Kart Double Dash.

He was the first character to get a bike on Mario Kart DS.

Yeah, nice to see Wario and Waluigi get references of some form here. Would have been so easy to leave 'em out altogether.

It's nice to see they confirmed that Wario & Waluigi are the Oliver & Hardy of the Mario universe, but I got mixed feelings about it. Also on the intro, a Wario figurine is hidden behind a CPU:

I think that's a book.

It's weird to see that (B)Waluigi is bulkier than (B)Wario. Is it supposed to be a joke, like they're opposite to their human prototypes, or is it just because of the height difference?
Also the moustache.

 

[Garbon]

Ubisoft shows more love to Wario than Nintendo. Cool. REALLY COOL.

An unique spritework of Wario shows up at the credits on Mario Kart Arcade GP.
