      This is not from Wario World's manual. He straight up says "Hey, I'm tough, but I'm not invincible!" in the Wario World manual. This is from the official Wario Land 4 Japanese website in a segment called "Ask Wario", Part 2.
      Sourcegaming provided a translation:
      Q: *Wario, why are you invincible? Also, in your diary it sounds like you ate a lot, but why do you get fat after eating a single apple in your game? (lol)*
      A: _Let me answer the first one: Why am I invincible? You don’t want to die, right? Well, I don’t want to die either!!_

    According to the Enclosed Instruction Manual and some insider lore, the knock off Mr Game&Watch guy is actually the black cat. When you enter the hallway toward the Boss, very occasionally do you see the black cat go into the store and just vanish. And if you beat the game with at least 90% of the treasure, well... The ending says it all.

      Also I remember that if you go fight the Golden Diva after you purchase an attack, once the Game & Watch person is done, it turns into the black cat, and proceeds to attack her, which leads to the Golden Diva to capture her and start the battle
      Also the Golden Diva’s ghost faces match the current mask she’s wearing, so you can change them by attacking her prior to the fight

It's a stage you unlock after collecting all treasures and it is honestly one of the most disturbing Nintendo levels out there. It's dastardly difficult too with pixel perfect junps and hidden walls. What an amazing reward.

    What I find most upset or disappointed about the lack of this franchise awareness is not only that there hasn’t been a new one since Wario Land Shake It on the Wii, but that this franchise could have been a more better inspiration for Wario in Smash. Brawl, the 4th one, and Ultimate, Wario could have gotten a moveset based on his fighting moves in the Wario Land series, even Wario World or Master of Disguise even.
    And while I'm still at about Wario in Smash, since Wario’s final smash “Wario Man” is no longer just a power up anymore and instead just Wario Man doing a quick cinematic finishing move without the player having to do anything else, Wario’s final smash could maybe have him taking all 7-8 disguises from “Wario Master of Disguise” while finishing off the character(s) in a cinematic style, similar to his official latest final smash.
    And maybe we could've also have Captain Syrup as a newcomer for ultimate to add another to the "Mario-universe arch-nemeses" (Mario vs. Bowser, Yoshi vs. Bowser Jr., Donkey Kong vs. King K. Roll, and Wario vs. Captain Syrup).
    That’s just my opinion.

    Wario Land The Shake Dimension genuinely is one of my favourite video game osts of all time; Hot Roderick's theme was always stuck in my head when I was younger, and the credits theme is an underrated banger

    Has anyone ever considered that Daisy is actually a Wario series character.
    Think about it, both characters originate from the Mario Land series, which would eventually become Wario's main series.

    26:14 WarioLand 4 spoilers. i think it was a part of the story, that the shadow was actually the princess with all her accessories taken away, and the whole story of fighting the bosses to obtain the 16 chests and 4 accessories is helping her reclaim her riches

    Interesting fact about Wario World: apparently there was an entire phase of the final boss that was cut from the international release of the game. They made the fight shorter and easier when bringing it outside of Japan. Why they chose to do that, I'll never know.

      It's apparently the opposite. It was released in europe/the us first, and when playtesters found the final boss boring, they added a new phase to the fight for the japanese release

    Warioland 2 and 4 were amazing underrated games. I remember renting these at blockbuster great times

    Just a correction on the "Game & Watch looking dude", that is actually the black cat you see throughout the game, which in turn is Princess Shokora.
    She is actively helping you throughout the game, which I think is a really neat touch and puts her up there as my third favorite Wario character, after Captain Syrup and Wario himself.
    My fourth favorite is 5-Volt because I have a thing for cartoon moms and feel no shame.

      Yeah, like the one where you open a whole no pathway just by leaving Wario sleeping in the first level. That was crazy

    28:15 I remember YEARS ago, I somehow found a playthrough of Wario Land: Shake It on UA-cam, and being bored, I sat down to watch the first episode. As soon as that cutscene happened, I legit got CHILLS down my spine when I heard that melody and saw that character, as I had JUST finished playing Ocarina of Time for the first time on my 3DS.
    Queen Merelda even looks like an aged-up Saria if you ask me.

    I genuinely love wario master of disguise, the story is charming and the characters are all interesting and pretty diverse personality wise. Def don’t do it all in one sitting though the mini games stink.
    I do take issue with your take that it looks ugly, the pixel art is lovely! What are you taking about. All the backgrounds look unique with detail you just didn’t get from other ds platformers. I recently revisited this game on the Wii U virtual console and had a blast playing it through.

      It's artstyle is actually my favourite out of all of the Wario games. It's also crimininal he did not bring up some of the absolute bangers in the OST

      This gem of a game introduced what may possibly be the first instance of a character consciously dabbing in a video game 😌
      Ok jesting aside (yes he really does dab, multiple times), I consider this game to be the true sequel to Wario Land 4, even though The Shake Dimension is meant to fill that role. The only thing I see wrong with it is that it's probably too long for the average player. This is a very long game, but they made sure to stuff the game with as much fun as possible. 100%ing this game is a difficult endeavour 😆

      @@rendumguy7596 I didn't say it *is* the sequel, I said I consider it to be. It has those captivating vibes, a wider sense of exploration compared to The Shake Dimension, it has the weird and wonderful collectibles with an added layer of humour with the descriptions of each treasure. It's also a 2D platformer that has Wario transforming into different 'guises' (a step up from Wario Land 4 where they're more like debuff transformations used to solve puzzles).
      The Shake Dimension is fun, but it feels a little lacking somehow. I love it as a game, it was a lot of fun but it didn't feel like a sequel to Wario Land 4, it felt like a sideline game?
      Of course this is all just my opinion
