What Mario game has the best Wario representation?

[CM30]

Whether it comes to Wario characters and locations appearing, songs from the series getting remixed, or anything else?

Notable examples to me include:

• Biker and Captain Wario in Mario Kart World, along with Wario Land and WarioWare remixes
• Wario Land getting remixes and references in Mario Party 10's Amiibo Party
• Diamond City in the Mario Kart arcade games
• Mario Tennis remixing the Out of the Woods music from Wario Land 3

Etc. But what game comes out on top so far?

Despite the lack of Wario characters as usual, I think the Baseball games are strong contenders. In those you get:

- A Wario World theme stadium that's a mix of his castle and Pecan Sands.

- The blatantly Diamond City inspired Wario City.

- The minigames for both Wario stadiums are themed after collecting diamonds, very fitting.

- Wario's team logos are styled after the Wario Land 3 logo and nearly all of them also have the WarioWare Bomb.

- Wario himself has the Shoulder Charge in both games, alongside specials that have him use garlic and bombs.

- Wario's Superstar Baseball bio mentions both his past as Mario's childhood friend and WarioWare Inc.

- Wario's overworld abilities in Super Sluggers' story mode are opening treasure chests and using his magnet from Yoshi's Island DS.

- Wario has bad chemistry with Toad and Birdo, calling back to Wario's Woods.


Like all around that's extremely solid.

There's also Dr. Mario 64, but I consider that a Wario spin-off in disguise.
