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!
