Sakurai has revealed the Final Smash for Wario. This Final Smash turns Wario into Wario-Man of WarioWare: <em>Twisted!</em> and WarioWare: <em>Touched!</em> fame.
<p align="center"><strong>&lt;Wario-Man&gt;</strong></p>
<p align="center">First he eats some garlic…</p>
<p align="center"><img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/wario_071128a-l.jpg" alt="Bottoms up..." align="middle" border="0" height="315" width="400" /><!--more--></p>
<p align="center">…and presto, change-o, he’s Wario-Man!</p>
<p align="center"><img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/wario_071128b-l.jpg" alt="Eek, tights." align="middle" border="0" height="315" width="400" /></p>
Let’s all be thankful Sakurai decided not to be as detailed with Wario as he was with Snake, Samus and Fox, because tights on Wario are to seeing one’s grandmother naked, it just should never happen. Now Wario is still himself in this Final Smash, but his moves have been rearranged and boosted in many different ways.

Based on Sakurai’s statements on the DOJO, Wario will have the ability to have a higher priority on his moves to other characters, which would in turn negate their moves.
<p align="center"><img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/wario_071128c-l.jpg" alt="0Wn3D!" align="middle" border="0" height="315" width="400" /></p>
<p align="center">His punch here is turned into a rapid pummel.</p>
<p align="center"><img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/wario_071128d-l.jpg" alt="Wario doesn't give the cold shoulder here..." align="middle" border="0" height="315" width="400" /></p>
Wario does his classic side-way shoulder slam, most likely a reference to his side-scrolling days where instead of jumping on enemies he would just use his body weight to smash his opponents.
<p align="center"><img src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/wario_071128e-l.jpg" alt="Fly, Wario, fly!" align="middle" border="0" height="315" width="400" /></p>
<p align="center">Some of his moves even allow some flying to take place.</p>
All his special moves are powered up in one form or another, but Sakurai has cautioned us about using his motorcycle. If you try to use it, you may find yourself losing a stock a little earlier than you meant to.

Can you believe people are disappointed with this? Its completely new and original!

I hate people. Really, I do. People suck.

And I'm a pretty happy, optimistic kinda guy. People just suck is all. I can't ignore it.

lol funny costume, and finally I guess a "kind of" useful update in a while.

Nice to see that the wario moves are in him. Good twist on the game.

YOU SIMPLY MUST NOT RIDE THE BIKE! SIMPLY

This should be interesting. Its a definite variation from the other characters. I just wonder if he remains that way for long? If so it may be a worthy Final Smash.

Well done, Nintendo. This guy tormented me on the DS version.

Though maybe a thought - BEcuase the chopper moves so fast would it be able to skim on the water?

Heh. You should have borrowed the title I used on my blog...

It's a Birdo! It's a Paratrooper! No, it's Wario-Man!

So true.
The guy now fights for truth, justice, and garlic. :p

It's an interesting Final Smash. Really, that's all I can say at the moment.
I don't know about truth and justice, but it's definitely garlic.

Stouter than an iron burrito!
Sturdlier than a snow tire!
He's... Wario-Man!

Yes! I totally called it! I just knew it would be Wario-Man, and not a stupid generic fart.
I love it, it's a great addition. So...I mean, I can't really think how it compares to the likes of Samus and Pit, but I'm probably missing something!
YAY! <---And I haven't said that for a WHILE now.
EDIT: I guess his normal moves must be drastically increased in power!

TMBG reference ftw!

On the Wario-Man side of things, Sakurai just guaranteed that the first thing everyone does upon grabbing their first Smash Ball with Wario is bust out the chopper. :laugh:

I look forward to zooming off the stage in a blaze of garlic-powered glory.

Stronger than cardboard, more sturdy than a sandwich, he's Wario-Man. Too bad his bike goes on a rampage when he tries to use it.

One down, five more to go.
And out of those five final smashes we already know Sonic's and Zamus's.

Wow, I felt this final smash sort of came out of left-field. None-the-less I absolutely love it, so fitting. It's much more creative than a generic "overpowered blast"-type thing like Mario or Samus, and Wario just looks too **** good in those tights! :chuckle:

well it's wario sooo it's not like I really cared, but I like the refrences Sakurai is giving to the wario ware series. It is a deliteful series and I felt it deserved rep in smash. So I say good show Sakurai.

When I saw the update this morning I almost thought it said "Mario Final Smash".

Now I have enjoyed almost every update on the Dojo.
But if he did update mario's final smash again I would not visit the dojo for a long time.

Lame FSA for a lame character. Oh well, hopefully Sakurai will avoid a disappointing update tomorrow night.
Dude, are you high? This is an amazing update. Wario (who is an -awesome- character, btw) got a Final Smash that's true to form, unlike Lucas, Mario, Meta Knight, and all those other people that just got some stupid generic attack.

Seriously, I can guarantee if we'd gotten a character yesterday, you would have been saying how awesome this FS is. Cry more.

Not really, I'm not a Wario fan. If I was a Wario fan then I'd love this update... there is no doubting that. But as I've said, I'm not a Wario fan so I do not like this update. I would have rathered a King Dedede FSA but hey... its Sakurai's call and we got what he wanted to give us. Maybe in 24 hours time we'll have a better update.

OK, I apologize then, I honestly thought you were just complaining because the update wasn't new character/stage builder magnitude.

But...how can you not like Wario?

Nobody aaid it yet, but I thought this was the best Final Smash yet. It's original, It's fun, you can do more than one just generic attack and it represents the charactar. Better than the skimos', better than Fox's, better than Lucas'. How can people be dissapointed? Bunch of idiots... They haven't played Warioware Twisted (best game in the series IMO).
