Wario. The name is vagely familar, right? Wario is a very unipreciated character in the nintendo universe. He has always been there, too. So many people discarded Wario in multiplayer games like Mario Party and Mario Kart. I was in the crowd that didn't like Wario. This is because Nintendo really didn't even try to expand on his character. They created an Anti-Mario, pasted a couple of catch phrases (I'ama gonna win, Wahaha...), with a few mediocre gameboy games. Wario made his first ripple in Wario Ware, a simple game that is absoulty exactly what the game boy was made for. Now in Wario World, Wario must save his castle from an evil jewel. Stupid story, right. But, when you enter the first level, punch a little dinosaur, he goes flying, and Wario utters, "Have a rotten day," you know that this is going to be a fricken awesome game. And it is. Some people say it is short. They are right and wrong. I got it on Saturday and now, after just completing it on Monday, I wish it was still there with four more worlds, but it isn't. Four worlds each with two levels, and three bosses. That's what the game's make up is. The levels are huge and unuique. Getting all the treasures could go down as a game itself. In conclusion: Wario World has just made my top five Gamecube list and my top 10 video games ever list. Rent it. Love it. Don't pay the 50.00 admission, wait for a price drop. When it does. I'll be first in line to buy it.

This is a good solid 3-D side-scrolling game, with a nice feature that you can continue from death as many times as you can divide your gold count by 100, and if you get too low on gold, it's easy to redo an easy area to pick up LOTS of gold again. I haven't played the whole game, but I noticed the bosses I've run into are pretty easy, plus Wario has a cool assortment of moves and fighting techniques. I especially LOVE to duke it out high-speed in the ring matches that occasionally show up. The only real incentive to redoing an area is getting precious items you missed earlier.

On a 5-star scale:

Graphics - 4.0
Sound - 4.5
Controls - 4.5
Replay value - 3.5

This is the best game i have. I got it for my birthday and i loved it. I had only played games where wario was a charactor of choice (Mario Party) or where he was the enemy (Mario Land 2)
But i like about this game is the originality of it. It is very Bizzare. I also liked the moves that he can perform. I am a big mario fan, but i have never seen Mario piledrive, corkscrew, or eat coins, and i only see him throwing boowser, where i get to my second catergory of why i loved this game. Mario in the end always fights a familiar person (Bowser, Baby Bowser, Wario, Big Boo, to name most) but the bossews here are Bizzare, random, and unseen.
This game also shows some of his past games. Even when he is the goodguy, he is unbelievably greedy. Thats what the game is about. His treasures get turned into monsters and he has to get them back (And for once , they were really his!) This game also gives gifts. If you get all the treasures for one world, you get a sample of warios latest GBA titli Wario Ware inc:Mega Microgame$. All in All, if you have a gamecube, you must get this game

Since the first "Mario Kart" on the N64, Wario has been my favorite Nintendo character. This is the reason why "Wario World" was my first game purchase after acquiring a GameCube. Sure, he's mean, selfish, and is a poor loser, but that's the charm of his not-so-nice personality. He's a great evil opposite to Mario.

This game, "Wario World", is much like "Super Mario 64", but with better graphics and with Wario instead of Mario. Like all the good Nintendo games, this one has lots of creativity, mixed with clever design and a bit of humor. The key to the greatness of any Nintendo game is in the details. Little details in the sounds, the character movements, and even the humor, are what set the high standard we've come to expect from a Mario-related game.

The game is shorter than some other Mario-related games, but it was long enough for me. The way I play games, and with as many games as I've purchased that I've yet to play, the length of this game was just right.

This game is one of the shortest games I've played - for those of you who like to play a long game with a lot of worlds - this game is not for you at all. But for those of you who like a really short game - hunting for treasure chests - and some comedy that rolls through out the game - then this is probably for you.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this game after reading some reviews that weren't so great. THEY WERE WRONG!!!! This game is great! The graphics are colorful and vibrant just as one would expect from the gamecube and the game play is FUN! Any game that allows you to pile drive your enemies gets 3 stars automatically! There are also other moves such as holding on to an enemy and spinning it into surrounding enemies which helps alot. But, this game isn't just smashing enemies, you must find treasures through solving puzzles. I thought this game was going to be too easy but it really isnt that easy at all! It's not as tough as Metroid Prime but it does take some patience. In the end, I always think of how much money I spent on the game and then compare the gameplay (fun/boring, graphics, length of game, etc.) to the dollar amount. So, is 50 hard earned dollars worth spending on Wario World? YES!

When I first started playing this game I was disappointed because I expected it to be kind of like Super Mario Sunshine, it's not, although the game is 3-D it moves along mostly from side to side, and the camera is in a fixed position with very little adjustment options available. Having said all that, I can now say I enjoyed it a great deal. As Wario you punch your enemies to knock them out then pick 'em up to either throw, spin or piledrive them into the ground. There are 8 pretty nicely detailed worlds to explore, and in each world there is a varying number of trap doors which if pounded on drop you into sort of a little world where you have to collect an item or items by flipping switches, moving blocks, and jumping from moving platforms, these areas remind me of the areas in Super Mario Sunshine where your waterpack is stolen and you have to get the sunsprite without it. There are a good number of bosses in the game. Each boss is very unique and I found them to range in difficulty from easy to medium hard. Even if you do die you can continue right from where you left off by paying a certain amount of coins, the number of coins you pay goes up as you progress through the game. The game is a little short, I'd say it took me 15 hours or so to beat it. All in all I feel this game has some flaws, but was worth the money.

I wanted to get this game sooooo much. So I looked it up, and read reviews about it. I looked up so much stuff that I knew tons about the game. But there were many reviews that said it was short and easy. Some said that the badguys just have a different skin in the later levels. And it was true. When I got this game I realized that all of those things were true. But the game was still my favorite of all time. The games Bosses and level design rock!! The bosses are creative, fun and awesome. I'm still not quite halfway through the game yet and I hope they make a wario world 2!! You must buy this game!!

It's fun and CANNOT BE FINISHED IN 3 HOURS. Unless you got a strategy guide or some kind of cheat. It has many hidden things you have to unlock to advance, and believe me, is hard to make the tricky moves. You don't just have to kill the main monsters but find all the hidden jewels, hearts, etc. This game is not only for kids, but adults will have an entertainig time as well. Well made and hilarious; you have to get it.

I really enjoyed this game! I've always loved Mario games (esp Mario64) but have never been very good at them, until now... Here we have Wario World! Fun, bright graphics and easy game play.
Yes, it is quite easy. This isnt a game for the more experienced among you (unless you want a quick game inbetween) as it can be completed very quickly (if i can do it, anyone can) but it is enjoyable. The moves are fun, the puzzles are a mix of simple and challenging and there are loadsa boss's to get your teeth into.
If your bad at games, this is the game for you. If your good at them, then pick up this game for a quick side track!
