bu-RUHHhhhh wario really be out there shipping his games like dis?? with slip ups?nawmsayin'.
that's just porr. form...

And it's just an 8x8 pixel tile, not a whole 16x16 block.

Honestly, tiling errors aren't that rare in this series. Wario Land 4 has quite a few of them, often because the tileset doesn't have the right tile for that situation and they just used a random stand in.

And yeah, it's pretty unnoticeable here unless you look super carefully.

He bears a lot more resemblance to his appearance on the map screen, which in itself was a 32-bit version of WL3's map sprite.

One thing to note is that flat wario also retains aspects from WL3 Wario

That's really interesting! Seems like the transformation graphics weren't updated as much as the main player graphics, likely because the differences from the normal Wario design were mostly unnoticeable.

Wario Land 4's music is comprised of commercially available sample tracks.
