Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

Greed is good!

The second sequel and instead of Mario we play as Wario, the final boss of the last game in our search for enough gold to buy our own castle. But since since we can't earn it the honest way we steal it from a pirate gang for our own selfish need. I played this game a lot and finished it almost 100 %, was one treasure I believe I couldn't find for some reason. Does this mean I'm super good at this game? No, I cheated the hell out of this game by pausing it, pressing the select-button 16 times and upgrade my hat and give me more time and gold. Nothing better than flying across the sky with the jet-bunny upgrade. 

How come Wario has the better looking villains?

So you battle the pirate gang until you defeat their female pirate captain (or rather her genie), the castle crumbles and you escape with the genies lamp and watch as the rubble reveals a giant golden statue of... Peach... or maybe Daisy? And who comes around if not Mario in a helicopter (where did he get that and where is it now?) and he steals the statue away from Wario who honestly got it... or maybe it was paying of the redecoration bill that Mario had commenced after booting Wario out of his castle. Wario summons the genie and depending on how much money and treasures you gathered the quality of  your castle will shift. Really, I really like playing through the game... with some help of course. Maybe I should play it legit sometime. This was also the final Mario land game since Wario apparently got so popular he took over the whole series and also the final Mario/Wario land game on the Game Boy, only colour from now on. And I still wish we could get the colour filter on the 3DS virtual console thank you very much.

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins

Great, he's once again facing left!

The sequel game starts of with Mario back from one of his adventures (or is it right after Super Mario Land 1?) and his castle has been taken over by his evil cousin Wario. So Mario had a castle? Didn't know saving the same princess over and over again was so lucrative so you could get a castle on an island. The 6 golden coins in the title are the reward for defeating the bosses in each are and are used to unlock the gate to the castle so you could defeat Wario. Oh, and one of the bosses is Tatanga.

Relegated to just a normal boss and you don't even defeat him with a plane this time, talk about humiliating.

The music feels a bit more Mario and just looking at the sprites I can tell that it is Mario. This wasn't my first Mario Land-game, but the second. I got Mario Land 3 first and frankly, it probably spoiled me a bit since while fun to play at times, I actually prefer that game. Not much else to say,
