WarioWorld
I bought WarioWorld the other day. It is truly excellent. And fun!

I can't remember which Wariolands I've played. I know I've played the first one -- and it was ingenious -- but I forget which one of the others I've played.
WarioLand was incredible, though. The idea that, since you control the bad guy, logically therefore any enemy that walks into you gets hurt and you just barge on past was delightful. It is what would happen according to accepted laws of videogaming, and they totally underplayed it.
The other one I played was too frustrating. It was one where you couldn't die, just be transformed into increasingly useless versions of Wario. It did my head in. I'd rather it just killed me rather than make me sit there powerless until the batteries died.

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3, the game was awesome, I liked how you collect treasure and at the end the genie totals the amount, and depending on the amount he builds a castle for you. I also liked the hat's he would use, Bunny, Dragon, and Jet.
Speaking of WarioWorld, yeah the game is excellent. I like Wario's piledriver move, it's cool! the bosses are goofy yet Wario'ish styled.
You all know that the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins game is the intro/birth of Wario right?
I'm hoping Nintendo will make a Wario World 2 for the Revolution.

WarioWorld is everything Donkey Kong 64 should have been.

I don't know, Wario's moves are very aggressive. A little too aggressive for Luigi in my books. Something similar, sure, but the moves would have to be totally changed around.

I'd like to see a game which pits Mario and Luigi against Wario and Waluigi. We haven't seen the like since the Game Boy.

i think that's WarioLand2, since that's the one i've played.AndrewTaylor wrote:The other one I played was too frustrating.

even though it was just borrowed, i loved it. i spent countless hours and beat the whole thing, all the possible levels, found all the secret doors, etc. 'twas great fun. well, except when the batteries died after i just finished going through a really hard part
and i liked the whole "not being able to die". sure it was frustating, but i found it better than eventually running out of lives and having to start the level over *points at Mario*

You could die, but it wasn't easy. You could take a hit, but there was no health meter. And though you could die, you'd never run out of lives because 1UPs were so common the cannier enemies disguised themselves as them for camoflage. And then you'd roulette them all and double them.

I think Wario is likely to see more Nintendo DS and GameBoy-Next outings. it's possible the next WarioWorld game will be released on the DS...

Well, the only Wario games I've got are for the GameBoy:
Wario Land (Super Mario Land 3)
Wario Blast featuring Bomberman
I think the one that I like most is Wario Land.
