What's the white cat in Wario Land 4?

[CM30]

Seriously, what is it? It's from the ending:



And can be seen here:

So, is there a story behind this cat as well? It looks an awful lot like the cat form of Princess Shokora, so is there some other story where a princess has been cursed and turned into a cat? Or is it just a normal cat that looks a lot like the first one?

What do you think?

I'd say Nintendo just made the white cat for a gag of it almost being run over by a car, you know, the outro copying the intro

 

[CM30]

True. That's definitely the simplest explanation.

I always assumed the white cat was just a random cat, to make the ending similar to the beginning.

 

[wariolandgoldpiramid]

Yeah, i think it's just to mimic the intro, with the almost getting run over by a car, and then the newspaper thing

 

[ChanceTime]

Despite being the admitted king of overthinking WL4, I'd be hard-pressed to say it was meant to be a Shokora's ghost or something like that. As everyone else has said, I think it's just the game's themes coming full circle and that it's a random cat in place of where she was.

yes i know it contradicts the fact i mentioned shokora read the newspaper in my video shut up

I always wondered if the white cat is able to actually read the newspaper, or just looks into it.

Boring answer: Book End http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BookEnds

Less boring answer: Maybe after ascending to heaven Shokora met the Golden Diva's ghost and cursed her into being a cat just like she was.
But hey, that's just a theory.
A... theory I just pulled out of my ass.

What's the file name for the white cat?

What's the file name for the white cat?

Hmm good question. I don't think Wario Land 4 has actually been disassembled, so we don't have a way to get the file name yet.

Could we make a hypothetical story where the buffet in the newspaper IS Wario's next adventure with the new white cat? Beefy Buffet Princess? Could be Wario's true woman

 

[pacmastermeow]

I don't think Wario would bother with a second princess rescue immediately after getting roped into the first one, especially since there's no treasure involved in the location. Maybe Tatanga or Daisy from Mario Land 1 could pick this questline up.

The first time I saw this way back, I was thinking like a repeated time loop where another man was about to go on a similar adventure, repeating ad nauseum.

The cat is for the unreleased Wario Land 5. Wario must accidentally save another princess.

That was my thought too. Waluigi's Mansion 4, perhaps?
