Video Gaming News - June 2003

Redmond, WA (June 17, 2003) - Nintendo today announced that Wario World will be shipping on June 23.

From Nintendo:

Starring in his first 3D adventure, Nintendo' most mischievous troublemaker brawls his way through a host of monsters to recover his beloved treasure trove.

As the game begins, Wario's treasures make him so happy he can't stop smiling! After finally completing construction of his castle, he wallows in a stockpile of gold and jewels hidden deep within his fortress. Unbeknownst to Wario, hidden among the treasures is a strange black jewel that turns his gems into monsters, leaving him to battle and brawl with a multitude of strange creatures to regain his riches.

"As Nintendo's bad boy, Wario provides an opportunity for players to explore their greedy side," said Peter MacDougall, executive vice president, sales and marketing, Nintendo of America Inc. "Wario World will appeal to players of all ages, as they get their hands dirty pummeling bizarre monsters and snatching up gold!" Wario must learn moves such as the "Piledriver" and the "Wild Swing-Ding" to help him fight an endless tide of weird and wild enemies. His arsenal of new moves includes picking up and swinging defeated foes to thrash hoards of oncoming monsters. This fast-paced game will have players chuckling at the comical injuries Wario sustains and laughing even harder at the damage he doles out to his foes!
