playing every mainline wario game - 2
the list

im so thankful for emulation that i can play this game without that shitty console. i dont really have a problem with the game being colorless (or rather just monochrome red which i played with). the first game was on gameboy and that has no colors as well so i dont see much of a problem other than the fact that red might be annoying. which is not the case most of the time but sometimes i just couldn't tell some platforms apart from the background because the background was really detailed.

the sprite work on this game is crazy. its really fucking good overall. also the movement of wario is really nice. i didnt even know i could run until the end but learning it may have made my experience worse because im really impatient and wario runs very fast, so i died a lot. or maybe i just suck at video games. i wish i could have finished the game under 2 hours to get the ending that wario flies on a magic carpet with a playboy bunny.

the soundtrack is full of bangers, i really loved the music.

i didnt like any of the bosses and i fucking hated the last one, the first one was annoying too. the levels were nice but i just didnt like the exploration as much as the first game. i just never had the urge to explore the levels and find them.

but honestly, for a virtual boy game, this was peak. i actually wanna try some other virtual boy titles as well.
