I got to buy WarioLand 1-3 on my 3ds and 4 on my Wii U before the eShop could shut down. So far, 4 is my favorite of them. They didn't meme it as Wario's "Greatest Achievement" for nothing. 💰
I posted this on one of ProtonJon's vods, but I got an interesting story involving Shake It. A local mall back in another city had a GameStop store inside it back then, and Shake It was in the Wii kiosk. Whomever was in charge of the store didn't bother resetting the system memory between days, so over the course of several days several customers, including myself, ended up clearing the game. Drew quite a bit of a crowd when I beat the Shake King. Sadly, the employees eventually caught on, and there went all that effort.
I can't believe I had never seen footage of the actual game, only artwork. I didn't even know it was a sidescroller. It looks so good. This feels like the evolution of Dragon's Lair.
(sees title) In June, I ended up in a psychiatric facility, and they had a Wii. One of the games they had was this one, and I loved it; grabbing stunned enemies and shaking them like a ragdoll is very cathartic.
I don't remember you promoting this channel, but, with this being a video about Wario Land, of course UA-cam would recommend it to me. I grew up with Wario Land 2, 3, and 4; and later got to experience Wario Land 1 on an emulator. These games were a lot of fun. My favorite, contrary to my username and profile pic, is actually Wario Land 3 - I loved how the exploration and metroidvania was handled.
This is the only Wario Land I played, and by god it is a good first impression. ... does create this weird Mandela effect that I always feel like the only person in the room to know both this game and Super Princess Peach, both of which are rather obscure.
Hey my guy, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the transitions that you use for ad breaks for both your channels. I most often watch youtube on my TV so the ads aren't blocked. Your transitions make the ads much more bearable since they don't end up abruptly interrupting the videos in the middle of you talking. I wish more channels would set ad breaks to set times with proper transitions. Also I've always wondered how you find the original ad break transitions for the cartoons on your other channel. Like I get having footage for the shows, but I feel like it would be difficult to find all those break transitions, especially for some of the more obscure cartoons you've covered. Keep up the good work! I love your channels, they've quickly become some of my favorite to watch!
THANK YOU for covering this! I have kept my eye on this game for yeeeeaaaars and always hoped to snag it for cheap (or, at best, to find out it's getting remastered for the Switch) because it not only seems like a blast, but by Jove that art style is _everything._ Here's hoping it's remade sometime in the near future and we find the Wario Land series getting the revitalization it deserves!
I never saw the UA-cam ad but that was the kind of quality that made me want to go into design and work in marketing. Today, marketing is a shell of what it was and is a general insult to the industry legacy.
This game is a style icon. The animation is absolutely GORGEOUS. And this game is a go-to if you want a simple platformer that's neither too easy nor too difficult.
I loved this game. I know one of the biggest complaints at the time of it's release was the fact that it didn't support 16:9 aspect ratio well. I can only wish for a remastered version to support widescreen
Maybe it's because they would have to render a lot of things which would take a lot of CPU time and they probaly didn't know how to push the limits of the Wii
This is the game that made me a fan of the series. I didn’t even want it originally. My mom told me to ask for a video game for Christmas so she had something to fall back on should my original choice not be available
The thing I love about wario land 2 and 3 is that nothing will stop him. Literally. He is literally invincible and anything that might harm him only temporarily transforms him, gives him a new move set, or makes him recoil back. He heard “nothing will stop him” and took it literally.
Wario Land 4 was the 1st game I got for GBA (not the SP- the one without the light), and I played a lot of it. I'm not a fan of Mario, but I did love my time with Wario Land. I'm definitely going to check out all the other Wario games in the future, especially Wario Land 4 again- with light this time to appreciate the pixel graphics more. Nice vid.
My favorite was wario land 2. It was unfortunate I beat the whole thing on Gameboy before the color version came out so I didn't get to play it in color without having to lose 100% of the progress. But my 2nd favorite is VB. it may sound odd but it's such a perfect blend of wario land 1 and 2 it's amazing. It's like maximum warioness too in the music. Of course my first experience with it was on emulator not on a real VB. If that was the case I might not feel the same level of love
I never played Wario Land The Shake Dimension (as it’s known in Europe, and a much better name if you excuse my bias) but I did watch my brother playing it and liking it a lot. The art style and OST are incredible, I remember spending ages trying to get Hot Roderick’s theme on my iPod back in the day
I would be so down to see this game be remastered for Switch. Maybe if it revives Wario Land we could have a sequel that brings in Waluigi and his WarioWare employees along for the ride. Also a few months ago I got this game for cheap.
Today, it’s 15 years old. 15. This game was my most played game when I was a kid, and to celebrate the anniversary, I re-100%ed it. It’s just as amazing as I remember it being. Here’s hoping Nintendo finally gives us a new game soon.
I remember playing this game when it came out! Did I 100% it? Don't remember. But I loved Land 4 and I loved this one just as much. The motion controls were a bit confusing if you put it down for a while but it was still a fun play. We need a new Wario Land game.
Hey, I have an admittedly rose-tinted (pun intended) sense of nostalgia for the Virtual Boy! Even though I only had like three ges for it. Sadly, the Wario Land game was not one of them 😢
i remember the game. was a bit short for my taste... could use another world or 2. and the final boss should of had his own world on his ship. but ya the game is as hisotry as you would expect.
@@JordanFringeGaming that game series was my childhood. It’s a shame, like with most things it ended up being an excuse to make money from the individual toy sales
I would kill to have Shake It as a Switch game because it's my favorite Wii game but can you imagine if they remade Virtual Boy Wario Land as a Switch game? I was a baby during the whole short Virtual Boy era and I honestly didn't even know it existed until I played Luigi's Mansion 3
As much as I love Shake It, I think 4 just barely beats it as my favorite in the series. It has some of the best pixel art ever, and the levels feel more distinct than Shake It’s. Although the VB entry was surprisingly good, and I really love the color version of 2 because it feels like an old timey cartoon to me.
Waluigi may not have an invite to Smash Bros yet, but Captain Syrup has to be more underrated and underused. Dare I say, I would love her on the Smash Bros roster more than Waluigi. We don't have a lot of well known Female Villains in Nintendo's Rouge's Gallery.
got to the frames part and now need to say that the love letter to warioland known as pizza tower has the main character alone i think have 5000 WHOLE FRAMES, only around like 2000 are used but still thats a buncha frames
I'm what you can call a Mario aficionado. I proudly own 100 games featuring Mario characters in some fashion. Despite this, Wario is the one Mario sub-universe I am least familiar with. I only have two games starring him, being the original WarioWare Inc. on GBA and more recently, Wario Land II as part of the GBC Virtual Console on 3DS. Wario Land II is my favorite; I like how Wario is essentially invincible and the levels are fun to explore. Shake It! is a game that I certainly heard about. Some fans proclaim it superior to the New Super Mario Bros. series of sidescrollers. I never played it myself, but am decently intrigued by it; the art style in particular is lovely. Entertaining stuff, Jordan Fringe.
Wait...remember Wild Woody, a bizarre Sega CD game about a totempole being seperated, resulting in the entire universe being reduced to a table floating in space, which prompts the lowest of the heads, known as Lowman, to make a pencil called Wild Woody (yes, thats his name) alive who then has to jump into paintings that ripple when entered to enter new worlds (the game was released before Super Mario 64 by the way) to defeat the evil totemheads and save the universe by rubbing his butt on them and drawing really useless drawings since he is a pencil and a kickass soundtrack by a Guns and Roses guitarist thats probably the only redeeming quality aside from the cutscenes(he never got paid and had to do it in a month by the way). Also you can draw a naked Mermaid after collecting stuff in a really specific order. And it has really ugly cutscenes filled with innuedos and Wild Woody doing a Jim Carrey impression. He is at the end allowed to make a wish as his reward and wishes a paintbrush with big boobs and proceeds to make the worlds weidest foghorn noise after seeing it. And yeah, i should probably go to sleep.
Lol, I just replaced the battery in my Super Wario Land 3 cart a couple months ago. Was a fun one to replay, but trying to get 999,999 coins to unlock the last ending is definitely tedious. Never played any other Wario game. Wasn't super into Mario franchise games outside of Super Mario Sunshine and the DS Super Mario Bros
It's really not that hard to get the best ending. You only need 9700 coins, the rest of the money will be covered by Captain Syrup's 300-coin prize, and the 15 treasures.
Thanks so much for watching! Were you a fan of the Wario Land series? If so, which game in the series was your favorite?
Haven’t played them all yet, but so far, 4 is my favorite.
You should check out the one for Virtual Boy it's the only good one on the system
I got to buy WarioLand 1-3 on my 3ds and 4 on my Wii U before the eShop could shut down. So far, 4 is my favorite of them. They didn't meme it as Wario's "Greatest Achievement" for nothing. 💰
A tie between the original and 4 although shake it does hold a special place for me
I like the original Wario Land the best personally. My favorite Wario games in general are Wario World and WarioWare Shake It!
It's wild how many dead franchises Nintendo is sitting on that should be revived. I like WarioWare, but we could really use a new Wario platformer.
yes
@@CakeKid57 Nintendo ruined the Wario Land series thanks to allowing a shovelware company do an original wario platformer on the DS!
Nintendo ruined Wario Land with Wario: Master of Disguise!
Wario Land, F-Zero, Punch-Out, Chibi-Robo, Panel de Pon/Puzzle League and a goddamn port of Kid Icarus Uprising. 😢
@@CrowTRobot Who cares about these franchises? A dead franchise is a dead franchise.
Funny enough, I dress as Wario when I go to conventions. He has slowly become one of my favorite Nintendo characters as a result.
Because you're the real wario
Wario Land seems like a spinoff that would lend itself very well as an animated series.
I KNOW RIGHT!!!
THE CUTSCENES WERE LITERALLY ANIME
I want a new Wario Land so bad.
Too bad it didn't sell.
We got Pizza Tower :)
this game is gorgeous, i wish more games took this artstyle
When people were appreciating dkc tropical freeze, I was remembering this game, how it was more beautiful
I posted this on one of ProtonJon's vods, but I got an interesting story involving Shake It.
A local mall back in another city had a GameStop store inside it back then, and Shake It was in the Wii kiosk. Whomever was in charge of the store didn't bother resetting the system memory between days, so over the course of several days several customers, including myself, ended up clearing the game. Drew quite a bit of a crowd when I beat the Shake King.
Sadly, the employees eventually caught on, and there went all that effort.
Under-appreciated. The submarine levels weren't that great but nothing to ruin the beautiful and fantastic levels of Warioland Shake It
Subwarine
It’s unfortunate this game didn’t perform to expectations. I love the animation.
Wario Land needs to make a comeback. If anything, I would love to see another game in the style of Wario World.
I can't believe I had never seen footage of the actual game, only artwork. I didn't even know it was a sidescroller. It looks so good. This feels like the evolution of Dragon's Lair.
Man this is one of my favorite Wii games back in the day. Really wish and hope Nintendo and GoodFeel would go back to this series maybe one day
I literally love this game it’s so nostalgic, wish they’d make a new game like it
(sees title) In June, I ended up in a psychiatric facility, and they had a Wii. One of the games they had was this one, and I loved it; grabbing stunned enemies and shaking them like a ragdoll is very cathartic.
Fun fact: The ruins theme of this game is used as the basis for Wario's victory theme in the Super Smash Bros. series.
I remember playing this with my younger brother when we stayed at our grandparents' house. Really fun times.
This gem should absolutely have a HD remaster on the Switch.
Ehh idk
That probaly wouldn't happen
At best they would just upscale everything
Specially considering that the game has a lot of animations
That would be really good, especially if they can make it wide-screen this time.
Never played this but wow does it look beautiful. You’re right, the art style is really nice and smooth.
I don't remember you promoting this channel, but, with this being a video about Wario Land, of course UA-cam would recommend it to me.

It is something special when Wario tosses the princess aside to claim his bag of money.
I would kill to have a game with the gameplay of Wario Land 4, and the visuals of Wario Land Shake It.
This on the Nintendo Switch would be great 👍
Pizza Tower sort of
personally i'd prefer a blend of 3 with 4, gameplay wise
This is the only Wario Land I played, and by god it is a good first impression.
... does create this weird Mandela effect that I always feel like the only person in the room to know both this game and Super Princess Peach, both of which are rather obscure.

I heavily regret not bothering my mom to take me to gamestop to get this while it was being promoted.
I was introduced to a Wario at one of the Six Flag events and my life had never been the same since. Still have the stick on mustaches

Me realizing where pizza tower’s game design comes from
We need more Wario and definitely more Shake King.
I recently started it. It’s actually super awesome. I used to think the cutscenes were part of an actual show
I loved the "booty bop" ability
I still have one of those moustaches that they gave out lol...
This is the game that made me a fan of the series. I didn’t even want it originally. My mom told me to ask for a video game for Christmas so she had something to fall back on should my original choice not be available
been watching your gaming content since batteris low and your overall presentation, research and proessionalism has grown a lot. keep up the good work
My favorite wario land game
The thing I love about wario land 2 and 3 is that nothing will stop him. Literally. He is literally invincible and anything that might harm him only temporarily transforms him, gives him a new move set, or makes him recoil back. He heard “nothing will stop him” and took it literally.
Gotta catch up to the gaming channel more often. 🔥
I've always wondered, if they had made a sequel of Mischief Makers for the Wii, would it play like this?
No. I remember Wario Land: The Shake Dimension
I remember this, and I started playing it again a few days ago on my wii! I love the game, and it still amazes me today.
Wario Land 4 was the 1st game I got for GBA (not the SP- the one without the light), and I played a lot of it. I'm not a fan of Mario, but I did love my time with Wario Land. I'm definitely going to check out all the other Wario games in the future, especially Wario Land 4 again- with light this time to appreciate the pixel graphics more. Nice vid.
what shocked me the most is i didn’t know he hit himself in the head with that hammer, i just thought he was scared 😂
My childhood game in one video be like:
My favorite was wario land 2. It was unfortunate I beat the whole thing on Gameboy before the color version came out so I didn't get to play it in color without having to lose 100% of the progress.

this is my favourite game in the series, but Wario Land 4 is a close second
i never knew there was a wario platformer on the wii
OF COURSE I LOVE THIS GAME I Remember When I Was Younger In Elementary School Talking About It How Amazing it is 😅
no worries. we got pizza tower now
if yall want more wario land goodness play pizza tower or anton ball/blast. Great games
Shake it!, was one my favorite games on the Wii, thanks for the fond memories reminder Jordan this was fun
My favourite is the first one !
I have played Shake It, but not for a long time
Wario Land 4 is the best one fr
One of the most fun Wii games to play.
I'd love a switch port
Wario should definitely get a comeback to the platforming genre,and I’d really like to see a remaster of Wario Land Shake It. Make it happen Nintendo.
My one gripe with the game is you can't sprint everywhere like land 4
Wario Land 4 was my jam! The first GBA game I owned until I eventually got Pokemon Sapphire.
I never played Wario Land The Shake Dimension (as it’s known in Europe, and a much better name if you excuse my bias) but I did watch my brother playing it and liking it a lot. The art style and OST are incredible, I remember spending ages trying to get Hot Roderick’s theme on my iPod back in the day
Oh hey, I played this game!
Quite literally, this exact game, I captured the footage for this video, lol.
Oooo 😮 he should come back
17.1.23
Yup! Also thanks for adding and having CC enabled.
I would be so down to see this game be remastered for Switch. Maybe if it revives Wario Land we could have a sequel that brings in Waluigi and his WarioWare employees along for the ride.
Also a few months ago I got this game for cheap.
We don't need that Dick Dastardly playoff because Wario isn't as genuine as his portly counterpart.
We need a new wario land so bad I still love wario land 4 it was so damn good and it’s so creative
Here's a suggestion for Halloween. Do you remember the Gregory Horror Show video game, Jordan?
Wario was my guy when playing games. I played mainly on the game cube, shows my age a little.
i’m completely in love with your videos, please keep going 💚
Today, it’s 15 years old. 15. This game was my most played game when I was a kid, and to celebrate the anniversary, I re-100%ed it. It’s just as amazing as I remember it being. Here’s hoping Nintendo finally gives us a new game soon.
This was genuinely one of the best games I played on my Wii, along side wario smooth moves
Loving this channel ❤
I like this game when i was 14 during middle school.
I'm sad I missed this one, it looks funnier than New Super Mario Bros.
Always good to get some Warioland coverage. Wario is an excellent Lone Wolf chad
yes I do, infact wario land shake it is my favorite wario game
I remember playing this game when it came out! Did I 100% it? Don't remember. But I loved Land 4 and I loved this one just as much. The motion controls were a bit confusing if you put it down for a while but it was still a fun play.
We need a new Wario Land game.
Hey, I have an admittedly rose-tinted (pun intended) sense of nostalgia for the Virtual Boy! Even though I only had like three ges for it. Sadly, the Wario Land game was not one of them 😢
three ges
wario makes me feel things and my body does some things that also feel nice
This was my first 2D platformer that I played it is a great game but very difficult.
with the success of Pizza Tower, i think there’s hope for Wario Land.
I played this game so much when i was a kid
i remember the game. was a bit short for my taste... could use another world or 2. and the final boss should of had his own world on his ship. but ya the game is as hisotry as you would expect.
Wait… remember sky landers: Spyro’s Adventures
Skylanders already in the works 😄
@@JordanFringeGaming that game series was my childhood. It’s a shame, like with most things it ended up being an excuse to make money from the individual toy sales
Fun Fact: The studio that animated the anime cutscenes in this game (Production I.G) is the same one that animated the anime cutscenes in persona 5
The studio was apparently responsible for the animation of the actual game aswell.
They also helped make some of End of Evangelion
I loved this game, It always kept me wanting a DKC game in a similar art style
First Wario game I ever had. Still have it today.
I would kill to have Shake It as a Switch game because it's my favorite Wii game but can you imagine if they remade Virtual Boy Wario Land as a Switch game? I was a baby during the whole short Virtual Boy era and I honestly didn't even know it existed until I played Luigi's Mansion 3
Wario land shake it was my childhood
I bought it at Retropolooza like 6 years ago.

Although the VB entry was surprisingly good, and I really love the color version of 2 because it feels like an old timey cartoon to me.
What do you think about Wario Land 3?
It feels like a cartoon too!
Specially with the redone animations
Waluigi may not have an invite to Smash Bros yet, but Captain Syrup has to be more underrated and underused. Dare I say, I would love her on the Smash Bros roster more than Waluigi. We don't have a lot of well known Female Villains in Nintendo's Rouge's Gallery.
got to the frames part and now need to say that the love letter to warioland known as pizza tower has the main character alone i think have 5000 WHOLE FRAMES, only around like 2000 are used but still thats a buncha frames

Entertaining stuff, Jordan Fringe.
This game was once stuck at my walmart so long the cover art turned pink from the UV light bleaching.
It would be nice if Nintendo would bring this series back.
Captain Syrup should be a recurring character in the Mario spinoffs, she could act as a rival to Peach
Wait...remember Wild Woody, a bizarre Sega CD game about a totempole being seperated, resulting in the entire universe being reduced to a table floating in space, which prompts the lowest of the heads, known as Lowman, to make a pencil called Wild Woody (yes, thats his name) alive who then has to jump into paintings that ripple when entered to enter new worlds (the game was released before Super Mario 64 by the way) to defeat the evil totemheads and save the universe by rubbing his butt on them and drawing really useless drawings since he is a pencil and a kickass soundtrack by a Guns and Roses guitarist thats probably the only redeeming quality aside from the cutscenes(he never got paid and had to do it in a month by the way). Also you can draw a naked Mermaid after collecting stuff in a really specific order. And it has really ugly cutscenes filled with innuedos and Wild Woody doing a Jim Carrey impression. He is at the end allowed to make a wish as his reward and wishes a paintbrush with big boobs and proceeds to make the worlds weidest foghorn noise after seeing it.

Wario is a hero we truly need
Lol, I just replaced the battery in my Super Wario Land 3 cart a couple months ago. Was a fun one to replay, but trying to get 999,999 coins to unlock the last ending is definitely tedious.
Never played any other Wario game. Wasn't super into Mario franchise games outside of Super Mario Sunshine and the DS Super Mario Bros
Super Wario Land 3?
Don't you mean Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land?
It's really not that hard to get the best ending.
You only need 9700 coins, the rest of the money will be covered by Captain Syrup's 300-coin prize, and the 15 treasures.
