Fun Fact: Hiroji was also the designer for Samus, Which is funny when you view Wario Land 3 as a Metroidvania with the knowledge that the GBA Metroid games use the same engine as WL4
It is funny: I set out to do a deep Wario Land Review Series as well, because I realised that I missed the depth I would have wished for the series. Finding you as a companion on this journey is cool. Before you read on, I'd like to say that I suspect you wrote this review for completion purposes rather than any interest in the game. I will definitely watch your videos again before I write my script for my third and fourth review so that I can possibly address them in my videos, Now coming to your review: I find it impressive how good your sound quality sounds, the delivery of your script is and the accompanying images are coordinated. You have a fast and glib articulation. 05:52 "They took the ability to freely pick what level you want to play out for this game." I dont understand this comparisson bundled with the video of the overworlds together. Yes there is an overworld and yeah you traverse over one island and the first levels of both games have to be beaten first, but thats where the similarities end. 07:00 Saying that Mario Land 2 overworld is more inspired than Wario Land is a bad take: Parsely Woods is the world that does it best, but every world lays the ground for what you will see in the level. Also: World one gets flooded later and the world map shows this, same for the U.F.O that lands on Mount Teapot and you can see visiably that the pond in Parsely Woods get drained -> the level changes. Your point of the overworld map being just aesthetic is tripe nothing more. It might have been a good idea to review Mario Land 2 first, since you talk a quarter of this review about Mario Land 2 (no offence). It would give you the opportunity to talk more about this acutal game. Dont want to harp to much on this, but in Mario Land 2 you praise being next to coffins and playing a level on a graveyard ( 06:47 ) and for Wario land you say that the game is only theming, but not giving information about the levels, but the tree level is to obvious telling that you will climb a tree in the level ( 07:22 ) ??? This really feels like double standard. It is astounishing that you beat the game in just five hours, but did you even play Sherbet Land or which treasures did you find? For a deep review as you claim it to be I am missing a lot of this information. Since your ending is this hollow tree you didnt find every treasure; in fact you had 10,072 - 40,007 total coins for that ending -> you collected (in the best case only the cheapest treasures) 7 out of 15 treasures (not even half). This doesnt qualify for a deep review. 07:43 If you want to know where you are you will find it in the manual, like in the predecessor. For the predecessor you dont bring it up as a problem though... 09:12 The booger shooting face also only lets you only attack on its own permission. 10:20 I would advise not to talk about games yet that you cover later, but regarding your point: In my review my criticism was actually that these bosses dont really feel like real bosses since you either play the waiting game or defeat them in three seconds (except the jini). I am intrested what your verdict on the other bosses will be in the other reviews be than. 12:06 Why not talking about it than? Isnt this supposed to be a deeper review than any other? Instead, you now talk about something else for two minutes again. 14:50 I dont understand how you come to the conclusion about this game being a great first entree since you talked plentyful about Mario Land 2 and how Wario Land is worse in every aspect touched on. Also how can you talk about a first in the entree when you selled this game the whole time as a sequel to Mario Land 2? How is it a better platformer than Mario Land 2? How does its "art design and character [...] carry its charme on its shoulders"? I thought you dont know where you are and you are just "digging around on the beach". To conclude: I didnt find this review to be thorougher than any of the reviews I saw of this game. In fact there is a youtuber called "ah beef" who had a review that went deeper than yours and he also covered the whole series. Regarding your video though: You should have reviewed Mario Land 2 first, since you stole so much time of this review admiring the predecessor. Stick to the game to get your point across. In the end I dont know how you inferred your résumé from the presented review.
@@seroquel_xr Are you lacking in reading comprehension skills? What are you even talking about. I formulated constructive criticism and skipped the picross bit for my comment since it didnt add anything to the review.
Absolutely based take, this review ended up talking more about other games than Wario Land itself. I'm excited to watch your own video if you decide to go as in-depth like this comment
"Take your head out of your ass, you're talking about a Gameboy game!" Is an amazing line, it conveys your tone right off the bat while letting people know they're in for some refreshing new takes.
deadass i bought mario picross on the virtual console on the 3ds and i 100% that shit. i am so fuckin happy that someone is talking about that mastapiece
I saw you talk in Lute's livestream and kinda forgot about you but luckily TH-cam's weird parasocial stalker algorithm remembered you. Good video! I'm gonna marathon the rest of your stuff.
...First time I ever heard of this book about Wario Land 4. Might be interested in reading it, though yeah, we don't need to get THAT pretentious about it. I think the Wario Land series is definitely worthy of a deeper analysis and the games are good for a reason, but it's good to have some perspective here, and remember that these are still games about a fat bastard who was created as an exaggerated parody of Mario out of spite by a dev team who didn't want to make more Mario games (kind of an overly simplified version of Wario's origins).
Hey FUCKHEAD I just finished watching this series to where it's up to and just wanted to say you have done a great job so far analysing and discussing the Warioland games. Love your stuff KEEP IT UP MY MAN
Fun Fact: Hiroji was also the designer for Samus, Which is funny when you view Wario Land 3 as a Metroidvania with the knowledge that the GBA Metroid games use the same engine as WL4
Fantastic analysis, you explain the simple pleasures of Wario better than no other
I really love your style of videos, please keep this up. Very refreshing

@@ElWaKa69 Thank you very much! I was second questioning myself after the first response.

Murder by Numbers is great! The soundtrack in particular is sublime.

Wario can run in this game. just hold the action button after a shoulder bash. If you used an emulator, that may be the problem.
