Thoughts on Wario's Woods?

[Kokonoe]

Wario's Wood is so salty, so veiny, so low-pH, so downright adamantine that it annihilated my trachea as it expelled liters of sap down my gullet. The whole scene was so raunchy and vile that I puked the entire contents of my thorax out after the fact.

Just wanted to put this here as well, to show the bizzare glory that is Tree Wario.

What's more bizarre is that Shake King would do the same thing.

A pretty nutty coincidence right there.

While not Wario's Woods, Game Freak did develop (or co-develop) Mario & Wario years before Pokemon began. In fact they directly referenced Mario & Wario in an early Pokemon game.

I only played Wario's Woods on the NES port for Animal Crossing (you could actually play a lot of old NES/arcade games on there if you gave Nook the right item codes). I really enjoyed the on-field bosses on the story mode since you don't normally see that in arcade-style puzzle games.

That is legit a REALLY cool way to look at it, even if I'm doubtful that it was an intentional reference.

Tricky to say whether it's intentional, but the Wario's Woods games were from R&D1, and the WarioWare team are very proud of their heritage since they are always referencing R&D1 products in WarioWare (you only need to play the first game to see a veritable museum of it).

Very true and to add to that Wario's Woods has gotten in on that before as well, one microgame in Smooth Moves had a WW card cartridge and the editor in DIY had a bomb sprite from Woods as one of the pre-made 8-Bit sprites you could use.

So yeah, it's really not that out of the question when you get down to it.

A lovely Toad tribute medley, that includes great remixes of the NES and SNES Wario's Woods title themes.

Why does it sound like Kirby all of a sudden?

I haven't played the SNES version, but I'm a massive fan of the NES one!
The platforming take on falling block games... ooh, it's lovely.

I feel like Wario's Woods should be an extra game like Dr.Wario in the WarioWare Series, it would be just another thing to make you pick up WarioWare again.

That's a good idea, I think. Why didn't they include more parodies or ''demo versions'' of some of the lesser known Wario games in WarioWare?
Would be a good way to introduce novices into other Wario games.
