    I like Wario a lot as a character, but this game is uninspired. It's a typical 3d platformer - the type you'd see with some random movie license. There is some quality parts, but it's not in the same league as Mario 64 or say Banjo Kazooie.

    Allmost all games are fun to play for atleast 1 hour the good games you can play for days or years. This game was booring after 30 minutes. One of the few games I didnt even bother to finish. Stay clear. Its a total waste of money to buy this one!

    A terrible beat-em-up slash mediocre platformer, with some of the most agrivatingly idiotic challenges in gamecube history.

    It's a fun, imaginative platformer that, though easily and quickly completed, is another solid first-party GameCube title. [July 2003, p.74]

    Where the game falls down is its length; at around eight hours it's going to take you less than a good weekend session to plough through it, and for £40, frankly that's not good enough. It's "Luigi's Mansion" all over again.

    No-one was expecting a heavy, lengthy platformer, but neither the puzzly-jumping nor the fighting has been nurtured enough to shine through, and as it stands Wario World is a missed opportunity; not particularly bad, but certainly not what we'd expect from two of the finest developers in Japan.
