  • One of the finest platformers in the GBA library, and an excuse to replay the Nintendo puzzle platforming legend. A Wario Land 4 review.
    I finished recording for this video on the exact day rumors started as Nintendo filed patents for a bunch of games we knows are getting releases, plus WarioWare and Wario Land. Here's hoping those rumors are true.

    I feel like nobody ever talks about Wario games. They’re underrated gems.

  • @iveli_alpaca
    @iveli_alpaca 6 лет назад +62

    There's a funny quirk with the ground pound; when Wario slams into the ground, a vibrato effect is added to the stage's bgm for as long as the screen shakes. Like when you shake a casette player.

    • @Aboveup

      a moth The game does so much to transform and distort the audio that the cleaned up rips barely sound like the same songs at times, it's really impressive that they did it all on the GBA.

    • @PKSuperStar256
      @PKSuperStar256 6 месяцев назад

      ​@@Aboveup, even the clean rip of Hurry Up doesn't sound as accurate considering it uses so much vibrato effects, which isn't an effect that can be easily ripped from GBA games (a common GBA music ripper called "GBAMusRiper" rips the song data and converts them into MIDI files, which don't use vibrato).

    I really like this game ..
    What I really like is the "Hurry Up" music because it creates a clock build-up type of sound indicating that time is running out and that you need to hurry up and go back to the start of the game

    A lot of comments are about "how good was this game" or "i loved it when i was a kid" and i played it a lot and liked it too much, but...am i the only one who felt a lot of anxiety and fear because of that kind of bosses?
    I mean...their expressions and their sounds were so...fucked up for a kid like i was.
    Still a great game.

    I have heard about Wario Land by name only, but thanks to this review, I can see what kind of game series this is, and one word that is on my head for it is 'surreal'
    5/5 review, would definitely buy the game when getting a chance.

    You can cheese Cractus very easily by hitting it near the second ladder to the right and then repeatedly reclimbing the ladders and hitting it on its head again and again.

  • @thelastgogeta
    @thelastgogeta 6 лет назад +10

    I must have played this forever ago but never appreciated it enough (more into beat em ups, typical platformers and RPGs) to finish it or go back to the others. It looks spectacular visually for a 2001 GBA game and I think I'd appreciate the concept much more now.
    I was surprised to find a platformer with such an unconventional health system (or rather many "attacks" gave transformations) but I did like how it diversified gameplay then.
    Nice review as usual.

    • @Aboveup
      @Aboveup  6 лет назад +1

      Yeah, it's really interesting how different all the stages are even within the same world. It keeps things fresh in a way you rarely get from a platformer.

  • @Rubberman202
    @Rubberman202 6 месяцев назад +1

    It's been almost 6 years since this video game out, and I'd like to think a new wave of appreciation has risen for Wairo Land 4. Glad it's finally getting the respect and admiration it deserves.
    Edit: 3:40-3:43 eh, wouldn't necessarily say Wario's transformations are like Kirby's; Kirby's transformations expands his movement and attack options, whereas Wario's transformations basically replace his moveset with a different one, and can be just as much of a hindrance as they are beneficial.
    Edit: 6:01 - Also, you don't use the money you get during stages to buy items for the boss fight, you use the money from stages to play minigames, from which you win tokens which you use to buy the items. Feels like a round-about way to use the money to help you, if you ask me, especially since I'm kind of "eh" on two of the three minigames.

    I‘m kinda disappointed that nobody ever talks about WarioLand 3 in reviews like this. Sure, 1 and 2 are important to talk about, but 3 introduced the 4 chests pro level structure, even though it’s less linear and each chest counts as a goal. But Infeel like the Metroidvania like structure of 3 is super innovative. There’s even a day-night cycle!

    i played this game way back in the days, and let me tell ya, this game is gold.
    it gots everything you never asked for!! the creepy audio which leads to a very
    unsettling audio if you listen to the music for 30 minutes it don't matter which
    one as long as you pay attention, it happens, but furthermore this game's design
    was so spot on, i love it.

  • @KamiSilver
    @KamiSilver 2 года назад

    I absolutely love Wario. His existence is all about being the opposite to Mario. Mario is out to save Peach and the Mushroom Kingdom, whereas Wario doesn't give a damn and just wants to collect all of the gold he can. He's rude, loud, aggressive and plain. Almost not a Nintendo character. Charles Martinet did an outstanding job with his voice acting too.
