- —Wario, Wario Land II
Crazy Wario[1] is one of Wario's reactions in the Wario Land series of games. When hit by a ball thrown by a penguin in international releases of Wario Land II, he becomes hard-to-control, where he will involuntarily move back and forth, though he can still control his jumps. He also changes into a purplish color (though artwork depicts him in his usual color scheme). While it is difficult to control him, Wario can attack by belching, the resulting gas being able to defeat enemies. In Japanese releases, the ball is a mug of beer, so Wario is intoxicated in this condition. Crazy Wario's theme is an arrangement of the main theme from the first two Wario Land games.
In Wario Land 3, Wario achieves this reaction when he gets hit by an orange bird (only found in The Grasslands), spinning him around and making him dizzy; however, unlike in Wario Land II, Wario keeps his usual color scheme, and he can no longer belch to attack. If damaged or doused in water, Wario is reverted back to normal.
