Why is Wario Land a less popular series than Kirby or Yoshi's Island?

I don't mind the toilet humour in WarioWare, but it should be handeled carefully, or it will end up leaving you with a bitter taste instead of making you laugh.

I don't mind it if:
A) It's done in moderation. Not every third microgame needs a poop joke in it. If 300 microgames have like 2 gross jokes, that's more than enough.
and B) Wario isn't the one being gross.
...then again it was already enough that the gross-out humor was in the same game as Wario, for him to forever be associated with poop and fart jokes.

....goddamnit I hate this stereotype. :SAnnoyed:
 
Meh, I think it all comes down to people not liking Wario (because he's meant to be hated) and thus not looking for it or try his games. I also believe people who try start with Wario Land SML3, and slap the Mario Ripoff tag on it.
 
When it comes to lovable chunky bastards, Wario is a dab hand! He's just a victim of circumstance. Sometimes you'll meet a man at a table discussion who knows a little about his background, but for the vast majority, when you say "Wario", people will respond with "Doh, I missed!" or "I'm-a gonna ween!"

When you think about Wario's image in pop culture, anything beyond a Mario party or sporting event seems foreign, obscure, or irrelevant to the masses.
