First and foremost, I'd like to give the biggest thank you to @El_Xiuh for making this PERFECT Wario Land 4 styled cover of "March of the Swivelheads". The meat of this cartoon is a parody of the famous chase scene in the film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".
You can listen to the full song on his channel here: [ • Warch of the Spearheads [XiuhCommission] ]

Another inspiration is the fangame "Pizza Tower" which is a spiritual successor to the Wario Land series. The music pumped me up into coming up the idea in the first place. H-H-H-HURRY UP and give Pizza Tower some love!

Wario is quite possibly the most interesting character Nintendo has ever created. What started out as a jab at producers forcing the Mario brand, spawned into this disgusting yet beautiful BEAST of an anti-hero. Take a closer look and you'll find out he's a deconstruction of the Nintendo company as a whole. His games, both platformers and mini-game collections, are some of the developers' greatest achievements. They are stuffed with personality like Wario's face is stuffed with garlic, and are some of the smoothest and frantic experiences you'll ever have the honor of playing.
YOU WANT FUN!? Let WARIO show you fun!

100K Views!!! Thank you all! ❤ Maybe this is a sign we'll get some WARIO news at E3 next week...
-
Remember: Wario can't die because he doesn't feel like it. Be like Wario
-
wario’s the only one who can pull off having such a picture of waluigi and not feel anything, because his only true love is money.
-
If this is his day off I'm afraid to think what he might do at work.
-
I keep forgetting that Wario is an actually good fighter
-
Ex-Ex-Excellente
-
I'd honestly love a full on licensed Wario cartoon if it was like this
-
Ah, perfect representation of Wario. He's not just grumpy and greedy, he is badass enough to get away with those traits.
-
It’s fun how how Wario is canonically immortal
-
This is the closest thing we will ever get to a new wario land
-
Putting Smash 64 and Ed Edd N Eddy SFX in the same video is easily one of the best ideas a human has ever come up with.
-
I love how Mario enemies are such easy pickings for Wario's immense speed and power and how you made use of Mona, Syrup and Waluigi as well.
-
I can't believe how long it took to animate this, I keep on forgetting how long it is to even draw a decent picture, but doing that almost a million times.
-
5:04 same mood as giving the middle finger, but with style
-
3:42 I'm choosing to believe that this part means Wario's phone only contains milfs, Waluigi included
-
This is a love letter for the Wario Land series-type Wario, the one that we miss so much! I love your job, Mario!
-
This was a really nice cartoon I like how Wario is literally no match for Bowser's minions
-
This was so AWESOME!! Wario falling doing two W's up was PERFECTION!
-
I love how this was more of the “macho wario” from wario land rather than the wario ware style wario shown in smash, it just allows him to cartoonishly brute force his way out so much better in my opinion
-
Wow... I've gotten so used to online animations building up to rude, crass, or mean spirited punchlines that the fact that this was legitimately just a super well made and thoughtful tribute to Wario as a character legitimately caught be unguarded. Not only do I say you did an amazing job in general but I wanna thank you for making Wario look really super cool in this, it's so rare to see outside of official media and I deeply respect and appreciate it. And thanks for the brief Mona cameo, girl deserves more attention!
