Man, Captain Syrup and the contents of the pirate shop just makes me believe she found all the places where the Shake King hid your standard Protagonist Treasures like health vials, and she's selling Wario maps to everywhere else.

I wouldn't say so, no. Most of the other Wario Land games are much more active and crazy in tone to match Wario's personality. This game is much more laid back compared to those.

KNEEL BEFORE THE WICKED KING!
My favourite touch of the Shake King fight was that shaking him makes money come out. He's been hoarding his infinite wealth the proper way: in his incredibly deep pockets. It truly was a mirror match!

The challenges are much easier if you do them a few at a time, but I'm amazed by the skill it takes to do everything in these levels in one go.

Yeah, I thought those completion percentages were getting kinda suspicious.

Oh by the way, internet says the etymology of 'schooner' is dubious. It certainly looks like a Dutch word, but cleaner? No. Another meaning of the Dutch word 'schoon' is good-looking. Whatever might be the case, I was pleasantly surprised by how well you pronounced the Dutch 'sch', probably the most difficult sound in the language.

It's pretty dang tough! The first half of the fight is a pretty simple pattern so once you've figured that out it shouldn't give you too much trouble. The part in the clouds gave me a lot of trouble even after I knew exactly how it went and how to play through it. :shepicide:

It takes a lot of skill but more importantly it takes a lot of planning. Wario Land: Shake It really is a thinking man's game! :engleft:

I do like final bosses where you recognize yourself in what they do and go to counter.

Calling it now, though: the Shake King actually is a robot who was supposed to protect the princess and went out of control.

I think there are a bunch of people who can create trailing images. I know some who could do this as if they were just going out for a stroll.
This is where the game gets tough, I remember having to do some of these levels quite a few times before I got all the challenges. Still enjoyable all the way though!

Even in the 'real' world, the moon doesn't have Wario's face. That's because Wario Land 1's canon ending was where he got the castle you see in Wario Land 2.

By the way, for the second level, that run back seems a lot easier if you don't try to combine the silver coin/enemy avoiding missions with the timer mission. You can just make those jumps without using the dasherator.

:raise: I don't think this is a thing. When Captain Syrup's castle blows up there's a giant statue of Princess Peach that Mario comes by and steals because Mario is a jerk. Then Wario wishes for a big castle to replace the one Mario took.

The problem is that you can't combine the money mission with the timer mission either. If I would do the money and enemy avoiding missions seperately from the timer mission it would require three runs through the level and that just would not do!
