BACKGROUND: Picture a bigger, fatter, Mario wearing yellow clothes, a crooked moustache, and a "W" on his cap and "POOF!" there's Wario. He's been arch rivals with the portly plumber since childhood and steals Mario's castle (Castle? Why doesn't Mario live there instead of his dinky little cottage?) later on in life. Mario takes it back, of course, and in WL, Wario searches for a new castle. This game sent out a world wide, hand held craze, and since then, the saga of the greedy Wario has had 3 sequels and counting. Not bad for a cheesy 2-bit villain.
EVOLUTION: In Wario Land, Wario shrank say, FOUR TIMES (!) an now sported a hard hat with a "W" on it. In WL2, he chamged back to the cap we all know and love. In WL3, he put on a little weight. Nothing really changed in WL4.
OTHER BACKGROUND INFO: An old acquaintance of Mario's. His failure to seize Mario's castle has fueled Wario's desire for a palace of his own. Wario has herculean strength, and can do things even Mario can't imitate. His unexpected skills include a talent with items and the ability to assume many roles, among them a snow man, a zombie, and a bat. -Super Smash Brothers Melee
