Wednesday has broken the combo of Final Smashes, of which I’m sure people are disapointed, but todays update has brought more info on the wierd and wacky Wario, and with some screens of some very interesting moves.

So, where to start? You have to admit, Wario’s certainly come along way since he took over Mario’s Island and castle (and in TV adverts hypnotising viewers to serve him), to now having a 2 different series of his own. Enough of the backhistory? Onwards to the future!

Sakurai’s comments with this update have been minimal, the only thing worth noting is “It’s rumored that this unpredictable character will give birth to a form of martial arts that other characters cannot even see.” And lets face it, from what we’ve seen of his attacks, if there’s any form of “art”, martial or otherwise, it’s definetly not visable.

The moves shown are certainly interesting ones. The above one is most likely 1 of 2 moves, either a Down B or Down Airial. Personally, I hope it’s not his down B. How many characters have Down B’s that involve them falling to earth fast? The second move, shown below, is a move I know I’d avoid like heck. My first thought was a Dash attack, but in the second trailer, Wario’s dash attack is shown as a faceplant. Forward B perhaps? Forward Smash?

The only other thing that’s new of note is the picture used at the top of this article. Wario before his Final Smash? I think it’s his Taunt personally. Anyway, feel free to discuss today’s update, both in the <a href="http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=104123">Daily Update Thread</a> or in the <a href="http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=71402">Wario Topic.</a>

Top picture is either his Taunt or his standing animation.
It’d be really neat if the bottom image was his Grab.

With the bottom picture, my first thought was that he appears to be trying to EAT Kirby (or at least bite him) — If that truly IS what he’s doing, then perhaps they’re showing Kirby on the receiving end to play up the irony of Kirby running from an open mouth. My second thought (based on our knowledge of Wario’s farting attack) is that perhaps this is the beginning of some sort of burp attack, but i kind of hope that Wario’s attacks are not ALL orbiting around his lack of manners

From what I’m looking at, Wario looks like he’s gonna be the Hurcle of Brawl, which would be really instesting XD. Anyone who doesn’t know Hurcle from DBZ, I’ll explain

in the DBZ games, when you play from sayians to aliens, you see that they have a basic, common seen move set and how it’s form. When you play Hurcle, it’s like a totally different logic. His moves are so bizzare and unheard of martial arts, you’re soon gonna be laughing at him. At both that he’s whack and that he’s a funny character. Even his throw and super moves are rediculously hilarious XD

Wario would probably be like him, but they’ll laugh at more of the humor then how whack he is.

In short, everyone would have a martial arts/street fighting/warrior like style of combat. Wario would have a completly different move set. and depending on the controller, it’ll be quite effective lol

hahaha new style of martial art that no character can see, can anyone say “WARIO WAFTâ€
2 be clear on the “waft†that’s the name given to the atomic fart wario does in the trailer.

I’m kind of hoping it’s a bite attack, cause that would just be freaky and hilarious to be running from Wario’s biting mouth! I can see him burping though.

Well, if my scientific calculations are correct, we only have 3 more known characters to see before Sakurai has to put up somebody new. (Snake, Meta Knight, Z-Suit Samus) Granted there are a ton of other updates he will/can do, but eventually he has to put up at least all of the starters… maybe the 11 characters we know about ARE the starters… nah, there has to be at least ONE more. We’ll probably get some new info in July.

I think its probably just part of a combo, a normal attack. BUT DOES ANYONE THINK THAT HE WILL USE ANY RANDOM OBJECTS FROM TE WARIO WARE SERIES? He cloud shoot out cats and stawberries and rockets!

Don’t forget we kind of sort of know about Yoshi, so his profile makes 4. But then again, he kind of sort of would be new too.

Wario’s style reminds me of Mr. Game and Watch.
Possibly because of his “walking sideways” and the website even said “birth to a form of martial arts that other characters cannot even see”.

when it says “style of martial arts his opponents can’t see” i think it refersto alot of stink-based attacks, like farting and burping and such, cause you can’t reallly see burps or farts

If his moves are mostly stink-based, that would just be boring and expectable. Wario is meant to be unpredictable, like Mr. Game and Watch, so the moves hopefully won’t be like farting and burping.
Also, is his smash attack the atomic fart? If not, I can’t wait to see what it is.

I can see a Pac man stlye Wario feeding frenzy move. Like a side B attack where he keeps on chompin away, I like it!

The bottom picture looks like it might be his Hyper Suction move from Wario World where he opens his mouth up wide and sucks in all nearby coins. Of course that would be copyright infringement on Kirby’s trademarked suction move but it does spark memories of that to me.

Clearly he is letting out a rancid burp. OR MAYBE, …. he is just biting. ☆
