Let me just take this moment to tell everyone why Wario Land: Shake-It! is one of the best Wario, nay best Platformer, games ever made.
THIS GAME
Is gorgeous. If you've heard news about Cuphead then you probably know that every inch, every character, every background, every enemy, every item, every asset in the game was meticulously, completely hand drawn. Shake It! predated Cuphead by 10 years but did it's art in the exact same way. Every frame of animation in this game, and there are over 2,000 for Wario alone, was hand drawn.
Is a melodic masterpiece. Every single track in the game oozes this jazzy chill feeling that would go on to influence Nintendo's recent Mario titles like 3D World.
Solidified Good-Feel; the makers of Kirby's Epic Yarn, Yoshi's Woolly World, and Yoshi's Crafted World as a powerhouse developer for Nintendo.
The bosses are extravagant, the combat is fun as it always has been, the characters are wonderful, and everything else is just amazing.
Not gonna lie, if it weren't for Tropical Freeze doing almost everything right that a platformer should do, Shake It! would probably be my favorite platformer. It's that ****ing good. It takes second place to Tropical Freeze... Only problem is the length of the game... It's rather short.
Wario World is the same way though and DAMN is it REAL ****ing good too.
