Hi Kids,
Some of you that haven't heard of the new Wario Land game, and in my opinion, it looks bloody brilliant! Seriously SEGA should be stealing this game engine off Nintendo for Sonic, this looks like a great classic platformer and even though I dislike Wario I can't help but give in the fact that this game looks awesome, (possible big game planned?).

Anyway here's a video:biggrin:.

Reminds me a tad of Mischief Makers. ^^
Looks great, I'll definitely get it.

Looks cool, I was never a fan of the WarioWare games but this looks way better.

It's a Wario Land, not a WarioWare game, anyway. =P

I never played the old Wario Land game on the Gamecube, was it any good?

Wario Land-series are extremely awesome. Platformers, but they're so effing random in plot and design. You played Brawl, right? Well, Wario's moveset is rather Wario Land-ish.

You hardly die when being hit by an enemy, but take on a form, like, Zombie Wario, Flat Wario, etc., and your abilities are fitting into these. Flat Wario for example can float around and slide under blocks.
I haven't played the Gamecube game, either, tho.

Excellent! Looks great and although I never played the other wario Land titles, I've heard a great deal about them. Let's hope this is another classic game for the Wii.

I wish there was more 2D platformers! What's wrong with them?

Except the Gamecube title (Wario World) all Wario games are 2D platformers. :3

I'm not too familiar with the old Wairo Lands, only the one on Gameboy, but I mean generally we need more 2D platforms, I think everyone would love a new 2D Earthworm Jim game.

The game looks pretty good. Only played Wario Land on the Gameboy, but I'll follow the news on this one very closely.

Man, more games need to look like this, and have you seen the opening cutscene? Brilliant. Then I saw the controls, I really hate the Wiimotes d-pad, it's stiff and uncomfortable, also shaking.

Incase you haven't seen it:

Hehehe all the d-pads now days suck, but I like the retro sideways thing.

Yea I like the idea of holding like that, I did it on Mega Man when I got em on the VC but it really starts to hurt after like a minute of use.

No argument there, the classic controller is much better but d-pad still sucks.

Can I use the GC controller? If I can then I won't buy it, but I'll see how its fun, if I can't then I'll burn every copy I see

Considering the gameplay has you shake the wiimote I'm guessing no.

I agree, but back to the game, it looks good, I like it's art style and I enjoyed the original gameboy game, but I don't think I'll rush out and buy it when it comes out, I'll be more likely to pick it up cheaply after it's been out for a while.

-rants about wii waggling-

*sips water*

-continues ranting-

Anyway, that's the exact sort of style old Genesis games need, Sonic Unleashed needs, its 2D but pretty 2D =] hard to appriciate with an overweight mustard coloured 50's psychopath on the cover

Warioware on the other hand is fairly enjoyable =]

No! >:|

Wario has the power of randomness (like Mr. Game & Watch or Luigi, tho Luigi has it in a less far evolved state) and therefore is epic. Only characters having the power of randomness are really good characters, and considering the fact that Wario is probably the most evolved character in the whole series makes him even more awesome.

And his laughing is just the tip of the iceberg here.

Wario is awesome, and so are his games.

Edit: I'm sure you're a Tingle-hater, too. |:<

Yes XD

I hate Wario, he's a creepy character, he's the sort that would disturb you for life. Even Luigi now, his final smash anyone? Wtf? o_O"

Mario was the original and I can respect that, even if I hate him now =]

I am most certainly a Tingle hater =3 sadly, he's a freak and I...ugggh....I can't talk about him >< nope

Wario only moves his ass when there is money envolved ... what's not to love in there?

You... do know that Mario just was in one game before Luigi was included in the series, and that wasn't even an official Mario-game because it was Donkey Kong...?

Also, Wario isn't creepy. Wario is random, funny and a greedy bastard. All these things are what I would want from a man. I don't care about the looks, which are really hot. I mean, he's wearing yellow-purple. Oh, so modern~. Sure, he has a bit of a belly and a bit of a voluminous buttocks, but hey. Nobody is perfect!
I would marry Wario, but unfortunately he isn't existing in real life. ;_;

Way to go, Tails_1986 and matt *high fives*

Wario is a great character and this looks like a very good game even with the shaking. By the way, Reknoc, great intro!

Wario is the best character. The nose is priceless as all, and he has the best laugh. Then you have his Wario are games are why Nintendo is the leading video game company (not literaly I just like quality gameplay). I loooooove the look of this game. It's how I have always wanted a platformer to look and it's so over animated just like ridiculous ass Wario always is with his cheeseball 24/7 smile.

Just got this game today and I have to say it's lots of fun. Nice cartoon graphics, great gameplay ... just what you need in a game.

I had this for my birthday last month, it rules! Forgot about this thread though >_<.
It's good classic Wario and none of this WarioWare crap they keep throwing up.
