Some series that need to come back

The next Wario Land should have Waluigi, and allow Wario & Waluigi co-op play, i have no idea why Waluigi hasn't been utilized in any of Wario's games despite them being like, inseparable in the Mario spinoffs.

A sequel to Super Mario RPG should happen too. I know Paper Mario was originally gonna be that, but I mean like another RPG style Mario game that's not explicitly part of the Paper Mario or M&L series, but maybe with elements taken from them (I think Mario RPG's battle system is pretty dated and it could really use the enhancements the later RPGs added to give it more oomph)

Either that or a remake, either way I think it should tie in to Geno being in Smash

also Mario Strikers, and its artwork better be just as gritty and badass as the original games, none of this sterilization please

This is actually a really good idea
 
Mario Super Sluggers and Mario Strikers Charged (as well as Wario Land) have completely skipped 2010s so I hope I get to see them within the next 10 years.
 
btw I refuse to say Wario World is a Wario Land game
 
Mario vs Donkey Kong

Wario Land

DK Jungle Beat 2.

The Wario Land games are built around the main character's strength and burliness. Waluigi, on the other hand, is more on the tall, lanky side. I could maybe see him in a Mario platformer as an extreme version of Luigi akin to Weird Mario that is unreasonably tractionless but jumps very high. But that simply wouldn't work in a puzzle-oriented platformer like Wario Land where the controls have to be very tight, aka the character has to respond perfectly to the player's command to facilitate the puzzle aspect. Waluigi would be useless in a context like this--not that he already isn't useless everywhere.

I agree. There's also the fact that Waluigi was never really meant to be a "real" character anyway - he was created for Mario Tennis and... that's it. I strongly agree, however, that a new Wario Land game should be released - and they should keep the art style of Shake It!, because that looked gorgeous.

Another baseball game and Strikers 3 could also have a lot of potential, though another Strikers isn't likely.
 
I REALLY hope we get a new WarioWare this year...

What do you considered for a character to be "real", then?

Thank you for reading.

Oh yeah, that I absolutely agree with. But as much of a fan of the Wario platform games (even Master of Disguise) as I am, I opine that the series has never reached perfection. Shake It was cool, but it was more of the same thing as Wario Land 4 and was pretty easy--didn't feel like the righteous Wario Land revival fans were expecting, as much as something like Pizza Tower shapes up to be. Which, by the way, actually feels like what Shake It should have been imo.

A new game would be perfect if they'd manage to mix in all the good things from previous Wario Land games--the whackiness of Wario Land 4, the razzle-dazzleness of Shake It (the casino level felt at home in the series), a character dynamic and story like in Master of Disguise (Wario's characterization in that game was the best in any game he's been in) and, of course, a brand new mechanic to complement the already excellent gameplay established in the series.
