STORY AND CHARACTERSSTORY AND CHARACTERSSTORY AND CHARACTERS

Hey, listen up! It’s me, Wario! Yeah, I know
you’d never know it, since I’m wearing this
great disguise!

It’s all part of my new scheme to get
rich! I was watching this stupid TV
show about a master thief called The
Silver Zephyr, when I had the
brilliant idea to break into the show
and take it over!

So after I invented a helmet that got me
into the TV, I crashed the scene of the
crime caper, landed on the head of the show’s
star, and stole his magic wand. How’s that for
breaking into the big time?!

GOODSTYLE

This distinguished wand makes
his master into a Master of
Disguise! The more gems he
eats, the more transformations
he can offer his owner!

WARIO

After our garlic-obsessed hero
steals Goodstyle, Wario turns
himself into a master thief who
uses disguises to help him steal
everything in his path. But what
he wants more than anything is
the all-powerful Wishstone!

COUNT CANNOLI

The star of The Silver Zephyr
becomes Wario’s nemesis
after he loses his wand and
his TV show to Wario!
