Hey, Wario is not the brightest, for sure. That's because he doesn't care, he doesn't want to think. He goes by as an egocentrical and careless idiot, until something catches his interest, and always involves money. Only then, does he actually think and do genius stuff.
If look closely, WarioWare is exactly how Wario thinks. He made a game, that is quite addicting and original, challenging and simple to play, with crazy quick ideas put together, in an attempt to get money (which worked in real life, btw). Asks for friends to help, then takes the money for himself.
So it's a genius idea, made in a dumb way for greed, and Wario got what he wanted!
Sorry, i just felt Nintendo forgot, that this was the same guy that built a full blown city, invaded not one, but two entire lands in his eariler days, Has saved multiple dimensions, & even in the Warioware games, he is shown to have full out robots in some of his Mircogames, and the fact that he learned how to make games in just days is impressive, ("Which is why it pisses me off, that he didn't know how to make games in D.I.Y, though I have my own reason for that.") I understand that wario was always meant to be a comic relief character, but it felt that since SSBB he has been
flanderized by Nintendo, to where now, he's just an idiot who farts and eats all day ("Yes I know he had these traits in eariler games too, but it wasn't as bad as it is now.) Plus I personally just wanted Nintendo to merge both the badass wario and the comic relief wario, to where yes, he's not the brightest tool in the shed, and his ego can make him do
Stupid things, but he's still a very cunning man, who knows how to survive, and do the things he does.
(Sorry for the rant, I just needed an release)
TLDR I'm sick of nintendo treating him as an farting idiot, and I just want nintendo
To respect his more badass aspects again.
