@@rayminishi689 Yeah technically Mario borrowed the ground pound from Yoshi from SMW2 which technically was also borrowed from Bowser who did it first in SMB3
Wario should have taken Ganon's spot in Melee, and Ganondorf should have been a Brawl newcomer. This way, Wario would have been closer to his portrayal in Wario Land, and Ganondorf wouldn't have been rushed into being a Captain Falcon clone
Personally, as much as I love WarioWare, I really wish there was a good balance with Wario Land moves in his overall moveset. As a Wario Land fan, this video was heartwarming :3
Honestly, I think they’ve put in a heap of his Wario Land moves. His dash attack and crawl animation come from it, and if you look at his landing lag animation on his back air, he mimics his ground pound
It's so funny; throughout the different smash entries since Brawl and various Smash fan games, it's Wario of all characters that has SO MANY moveset changes and different moves.
If Wario was planned for Melee, I doubt they could even pull a lot from Wario Land 4 because of the short development time. I could see concepts like Wario's transformations being done, but I don't think specific animations would be ready to be referenced.
@@GodOfGreed most likely, Sakurai said he doesn’t really know much about Wario games other than a bit of WarioWare, he even controversially got rid of the Shoulder Bash (that was really more of the tackle from WL3’s golf instead of the real thing) in Sm4sh and replaced it with some random backhanded punch that rubbed a lot of people the wrong way, but he may’ve also preferred to give him more uniqueness, otherwise chances are that we would have gotten Wario as the slower, heavy hitting Mario instead of Dr. Mario, and having a different size is no problem for clones because Young Link and Pichu exist
@@Improvisado64 okay, I’ve been looking it up and…yeah, I can’t find that, weird, I do remember somewhere mentioning he’s only ever played WarioWare games prior to Wario’s development in Brawl, even though Shake It was also being developed at a similar time (even the Stonecarving City theme is an extension of Wario’s victory theme that was made for Smash!), soooo okay, what I said was an exaggeration, or just a straight lie coming from foggy memory, at best only thing he did do was remove his Shoulder Bash for the sake of “making him stronger”, saying he prioritizes the character being fun and enjoyable over being faithful, which was ironic considering the og Smash attack was pretty good and the new one was and still is way less useful, so it ended up being a nerf, not a buff, buuut that’s really it as far as I can find, sooo, sorry for that dumb misinformation :,c
the perfect wario would be two warios one wario that is the one that we have now (biker alt only) and wario land wario (overalls only) we have like 2 marios, 3 links, 2 samus etc. so this could work

Great video. Amazing attention to detail, from the model you used from Melee's Wario Trophy, and the wonderful renders produced from Blender, as well as the careful examination of the source material to develop his moveset and animations, and the mention of Project M. Sub'd!
How has no one ever thought about wario's neutral special being him throwing bombs?! It's his most iconic weapon, and even his personal favorite! He's used them more than any other character, and certainly more than waluigi.

Wario is by far the only character I don't want to change at all, is just perfect as he is, instead, what if we had two Warios? We have 2 Marios, 3 Samus, 4 Marths, and 3 Links, why not a 2nd Wario that resembles Wario Land?
I'm so glad you included vb wario land, imo it's the best one and you can see a lot of ideas starting to develop that would eventually be used in later wario land games. Great job on the video.
Definitely one of the best interpretations of a more Wario Land-inspired Wario moveset, that's for sure. I also absolutely adore the stage concept. Great work on the video!
every day in the morning i sit up and i ponder questions like "why was golden plains made instead of a wario land stage?" "why isnt bowser's castle a stage?" "why did smash ultimate bring back rainbow ride instead of making the mario 3 airship a stage given that bowser jr is in the roster?" "why is every mario related stage a fucking stupid green plains level or 1-1? (except for rainbow road whose pride is selfjerking)" "if they want to not represent wario land in his moveset so much then why don't they just make a stage about it?" "who fucking let the entirety of wario land only have a single song in ult's soundtrack yet let have mario sports superstars have two?" "where is wario in melee?" glad to see a video address these issues :)
This is actually a really cool video! Not only did you put a lot of work into the visuals, but you also were very careful not to reuse too many similar ideas between moves and animations. I love it! I've thought about a lot of what-ifs like this, too. Basically, what would Melee be like if it had more dev time and could represent each franchise more thoroughly? For example, I've always thought if they had more time, they might add Scizor to represent Pokemon Gold and Silver since he represents so much new content from GS between being a new pokemon, a new evolution, a new type, and even representing held items because of his method of evolution, all while fitting perfectly with the rest of the roster thanks to being bipedal. But I'd love to explore this idea further to the degree that you have with Wario.
@@MishKoz Ah, that's right. I missed that. In Ultimate however, it looks even more like the ground pount than in Brawl and 4. He falls down more "snappy", and his arms are raised like in his ground pound animation from the WL games
@@rodrigomorales563 they could also move his Waft to be an attacking taunt like Kazuya and Luigi, it’s already a disrespectful move, it works perfect like a super taunt, and the online should let players use those moves because they’re not really taunts
One thing I would love to see if Wario having a three-hit basic combo from Wario World. I would make it unique though, so that the headbutt wouldn’t naturally link up with the first two punches, but if you did get hit by it, it would do heavy shield damage and have kill potential at high %.
I hope Wario becomes more weird and crazy, so that Wario Land Wario becomes a newcomer I'd love to see both sides of Wario coexisting rather than merged with some serious biase towards one side
Hey, that's pretty neat. Those are some cool ideas for Wario, I've never played WarioLand so it was interesting to hear what a WarioLand fan would do, and I understood all of the nods and references as they were explained clearly. That was a really good video, I like it.
I love Melee, not really for its competitive gameplay (although that can be fun of course), but for its unique and weird aesthetic. As you described so aptly, its characters are sort of weird "HD" versions of their N64 appearances. My favorite is for sure Luigi, who I always affectionately refer to as "round-faced Luigi." I'd love it if you did another video like this one but explaining your ideal version of Luigi's Melee moveset based on Luigi's Mansion, but I understand a video like this is a big undertaking so it's just a pipe dream. Anyway, going back to the whole "Melee aesthetic" thing, for that reason I get a big kick out of you specifically using a Wario model that would represent his appearance at that time. I especially enjoyed seeing his model in all the extra weird poses for his special moves, and the alternate colors. Cool stuff. Cool video too! Nice work. Gave this one a like, which I don't do often.
I feel like the shoulderbash would feel more natural as his side-B, since you could then possibly jump during it as well, making it more accurate to WL.
Man, I love this interpretation of Wario so much, especially his specials like the Down B (being a special flatten state). He even still has super goofy, cartoonish angle. I like how you said that this isn’t a “Fixing Wario” moveset but rather a What if Moveset, it’s fun to look at characters and see what directions they would taken under right circumstances. I kind of like Wario’s actual moveset but I totally agree that he should have some Wario Land influence in his Smash design.
DBFZ is on another level of accuracy (but tbf they did have like 40 years worth of Dragon Ball media to work with instead of like, a handful of games lol)
Great video, man! Just finished watching and when it comes to your content, I love how in-depth you go when you want to explore something in/about a game.
I like to imagine how people would see in the hurry up segments of Wario Land 4. It’s crystal clear the closer things are to you but the farther you see the more distorted it gets, until you actually get there in which it’s clear again
Models are definitely very hard to animate, but you might want to consider putting this version of Wario in Rivals of Aether workshop, especially since the moves that originate from Wario Land 4 wouldn’t have to be made from scratch
With Melee Modding starting to become more accessible, I hope to eventually see Wario in Melee with a moveset like this. It's only a matter of time now.
Excellent video. I still very much wish Wario Land was represented more in Smash, especially having more Wario Land moves in his moveset. Wario Land is one of my favorite franchises, and I'd love it if more of the Macho Man Wario from those games was able to shine through some more in actual Smash games.
@@Mr.Feather130 The problem with Wario Land is that the combat is not great. Wario boss fights consist of throwing stuff at the bosses, that's not enough for a Smash move-set. Although his Forward Smash and forward tilt are reference's to Wario Land 4.
@@orangeslash1667 yeah but I hope both wario and Sonic had a huge complete overhaul in a Future super smash bros game (sonic moveset should be based on his combat skills in the upcoming Sonic frontiers)
@@Mr.Feather130 I think it would be for the best if the Next Smash would have just original characters and getting rid of everyone else. It's too hard to find a middle ground between representation and balance. If getting rid of representation will strengthen creative freedom, then so be it.
7:29 Its not too far off. Sakurai gets permission to take a look at games early before making fighters sometimes. But since Brawl released 7 years after Wario Land 4 it wouldn't make much sense in this case.
The neutral air belly flop reminds me of the archetypical "body splash" air attack in fighting game grapplers popularized by Zangief from Street Fighter.
You can also check the Wario moveset from the Super Smash Bros. 64 hack, Smash Remix, in which Wario was added into the game with a time appropriate moveset.
20:14 for the all famous "E-E-E-Excellent!" By the way, the song at 1:58 is the Graham Blvd cover of Secret Agent Man featured in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show episode _On Her Majesty's Sewer Service._
Fun fact: Wario WAS supposed to be in melee but was left due to time crunch. Sakurai said if he had more time, Wario would have been added
Makes sense cause melee only had 13 months of development time.
@CHAGWAG Yeah it's also my favorite smash Bros game.
My second favorite is brawl because the music and the story mode slaps hard!
@Zacktheasdfguy Yep! Sonic, Wario and Snake.
I believe he also said he COULD have added Wario if he based his moveset around Mario, but thought Wario was too unique to just mimic Mairo and deserved better than that. This idea would instead be used for Dr. Mario. Not sure if he actually said this, though.

Hope in smash 6,they’ll give Wario a complete overhaul on having his moveset more based on the Wario land series
And there only ONE Wario Land song in Ultimate
@@Mr.Feather130 The problem with Wario Land is that the combat is not great. Wario boss fights consist of throwing stuff at the bosses, that's not enough for a Smash move-set. Although his Forward Smash and forward tilt are reference's to Wario Land 4.
@@orangeslash1667 yeah but I hope both wario and Sonic had a huge complete overhaul in a Future super smash bros game (sonic moveset should be based on his combat skills in the upcoming Sonic frontiers)
@@Mr.Feather130 I think it would be for the best if the Next Smash would have just original characters and getting rid of everyone else. It's too hard to find a middle ground between representation and balance. If getting rid of representation will strengthen creative freedom, then so be it.
melee but better in every possible way
A skilled Wario can beat any Fox
Wow, that's what I call quality
All the music stamps too! Love the extra work you put in your vids! It means a lot for both viewers and the composers
Have not been happier to watch a 30 minute video about a character I care 0 about in a series I care 0 about as well
I consider it a hate crime that you don't care about Wario
How could you not care about our lord and savior 😔
With how you mention Rivals of Aether so much makes me think that you want someone to make this Wario for the Rivals Workshop haha
Not really, I just like Rivals
There's like, 4 freaking Wario's there, one of which is based entirely off of wl4
7:29 Its not too far off. Sakurai gets permission to take a look at games early before making fighters sometimes. But since Brawl released 7 years after Wario Land 4 it wouldn't make much sense in this case.
This is an interesting video and I would like to see you do more videos of this type for other characters if you were interested.
Fun fact:sakurai said himself if he added 1 more character in melee it would been wario
You did a great job here, I loved the ideas and what you pulled from. I wouldn't mind to see more of these.
One word
*EXCELLENT!*
20:44 BOI BEYOND THICC that dumpy got me quakin. City hall gettin complaints over dat mfing dumptruck backin up
for his final smash he turns into the wario apparition, any player hit by the move dies in real life.
I want someone to mod Wario into Melee. I'd definitely main him.
The neutral air belly flop reminds me of the archetypical "body splash" air attack in fighting game grapplers popularized by Zangief from Street Fighter.
2:21 hey they were all released on the 21st of a month, neat.
Then it would be the best game ever, simple.
Neutral sepecial? BUSTED.
You can also check the Wario moveset from the Super Smash Bros. 64 hack, Smash Remix, in which Wario was added into the game with a time appropriate moveset.
You want Melee?
Wario show you Melee!
i love this, i always wanted more wario land representation in smash, especially that stage sounds amazing
You kinda missed the oppurtinity to use the pot items from wl1 and vbwl but awesome moveset,this is really close to my dream wario moveset.
in melee luigi looks like mario
So, basically, a super floaty character with good recovery and combo options, but limited kill options
it's jigglypuff but thicc
Wario's air speed in Project+ does make him feel like Jigglypuff on crack
So basically, what if Melee was good?
20:14 for the all famous "E-E-E-Excellent!"
By the way, the song at 1:58 is the Graham Blvd cover of Secret Agent Man featured in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show episode _On Her Majesty's Sewer Service._
Now i want Sonic in Smash Melee
If I ever did Sonic, I honestly don't think he'd be all that different from how he is in Brawl.
