Treasure and Nintendo 3D beat 'em up around Wario. Short colourful levels, properly crass humour and fun power-up mechanics. Less inspired than the WarioWare entries but pleasant, and it carries the Treasure mark anyway. A GameCube curio of its own.

Description
Wario explores a theme park and battles bosses to recover his treasure in this Nintendo GameCube Wario World. Published by Nintendo, released in the United States in September 2003. 3D action-adventure with Wario using brute force attacks, treasures to collect and thematic park bosses.
The North American version of Wario World, a 3D brawler designed by Treasure around Nintendo's anti-hero. The pairing of the cult studio and the greedy mascot gives the title a particular appeal to connoisseurs, despite a compact adventure. Its desirability rests on that sought developer signature and growing demand for complete copies, the Treasure catalogue being closely watched by collectors.
