E308 | Wario Shakes his way into E3

The irresistible fart-filled king of Nintendo mischief bares all in a new trailer, complete with father-son action!

With some new footage threaded with overly-happy couch actors waving their remotes about, it's sure looking to be a fantastic autumn treat for Wii gamers.

Wario, Nintendo's greedy, uncouth and rude anti-hero, returns to his roots. The Wario Land series is where Wario first appeared, and it's back in all its side-scrolling, platform-jumping glory.

• With the Wii Remote controller turned sideways, veterans and newcomers alike can run, jump and smash their way through hectic side-scrolling stages. By shaking the Wii Remote, you can shake down your enemies, free coins from treasure bags and even cause earthquakes.

• Each stage is a masterfully crafted side-scrolling obstacle course of puzzles, enemies and assorted hazards. Every stage holds numerous secrets and treasures to discover (and steal). And each stage has multiple "missions" to keep you coming back again and again to unlock everything, collect more coins or just improve your best time.

• Wario returns to form, with all the jumping, power-dashing and butt-stomping we've come to expect. This is surly Wario at his finest.

Also, a handful of new screens and artwork to check out in the game's album collection below.

The music somewhat remebers me of Snatch (the movie). Suits that thief Wario very well Smilie

Looks great, it scored well in Famitsu also, which is valid with it being a platformer. 31/40
