Review Wario Land 4 (Wii U eShop / GBA)
Someone should write a 600-page book about this game!
Wario Land 4 has seen a revival of sorts lately. Although Wario's core platforming series has been overshadowed for years by the surrealist microgames of WarioWare, last December journalist Daniel Johnson published Game Design Companion: A Critical Analysis of Wario Land 4, a staggering 600-page...
Review Wario Land 4 (3DS eShop / GBA)
A treasure
Wario is pretty good, for a bad guy. To look at him you wouldn’t think he’d have a heroic streak at all; he’s got the squiggly moustache of a pantomime villain and a nose that would put any alcoholic to shame. Despite all this he’s secretly a sweetheart: considering that the rotund treasure hunter started life as an antagonist to...

About The Game
Wario's back for more...and more...and MORE!
Hey! You! Yeah, you! Listen up when Wario's talking to you! I just read about this legendary Pyramid of Gold, and you're gonna help me go explore it. There's lots of treasure in there for the taking, and I want it all. I'm sure there are gonna be all kinds of weird enemies and big, bad bosses in there, so if you don't think you can hack it, put the game down now. I don't want any losers making me jump into bottomless pits, you hear me?
Game Features:
- Wario invades the Game Boy Advance! See Wario in all his greedy glory as he explores vivid worlds made possible by the power of the Game Boy Advance!
- Flex your muscles! Wario is no longer immortal, so you'll have your work cut out for you as you roll, punch and jump your way to tougher and tougher challenges. Wario will get stung by bees, zombified, bitten by bats, set on fire, and much more - what a way to make a living!
- Over twenty enormous stages await! Hunt down CDs for your listening pleasure, or collect treasure to spend on all-new items that you can use against the most bizarre bosses ever!
Can you help Wario steal every bit of treasure the pyramid has to offer!

I loved this game...I still remember how freaky Golden Diva was.
This game is great! Liked how the money looked like Rupees!
One of my all time favorite platformers.
Perhaps I'll wait until this is rereleased instead of getting Wario Land or its first two sequels.
Hope this is as good as 3
This game is awesome! So glad to see it coming to the Ambassador Program!
i loved this game so much, i only played it once and i cant wait to play it many times on my 3ds :3
Love this game!
The only bad thing about it was the soundtrack... -_-
The only bad thing about it was the soundtrack... --_
Its still quite catchy and several tunes are memorable. By contrast, I can't remember any from Mario 3D Land other than the ones from previous games.
Played this game on 3DS it's almost exactly like "Shake It" but with more special "damage" forms
I brought four copies of this game at one time. Great great great great great and just pure fun game.....unlike Mario Galexy
Great game, ugly bosses.
His greatest achievement
Still hoping for a port or remaster of this. Probably the best platformer on the GBA for me
