Why does this form have its own article, when it's clearly just Wario's equivalent of Small Mario (as evidenced by its Japanese name)? - Ericss (talk) 21:45, 30 July 2018 (EDT)
- Well there's the fact that in Wario Land II, it's caused by Wario being cursed, which is much unlike Small Mario. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:48, 30 July 2018 (EDT)
- That's because Wario Land II has a different play style from the Super Mario Bros. series, so the method for getting it is different. There are other forms that have different means of obtaining across games such as Balloon Mario or Tanooki Mario, but they're still considered the same form. Ericss (talk) 16:48, 31 July 2018 (EDT)
- Wario Land II having a drastically different play style is exactly why this article is separate from the Small Mario.

- Oh, so it's like Metal Mario, which has a separate article for the character from the spin-offs for having a different role from the form? Fair enough, but shouldn't we mention in the Tiny Wario article that this is Wario's version of the classic Small form (just like the "Metal Mario (character)" article states that he "is a spin-off from Metal Mario, which is a form of Mario")?

Looking back at the last conversation, I see a few issues. One is the case of Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, where all of his forms were direct analogues to Mario's own (just in boss form, or post-defeat form in this one's case). The second is in regards to Wario's pith-wearing Super Mario analogue in the first two Wario Land games, which currently do not have a page or any specific coverage anywhere due to being the "default" form for those games.... much like Super Mario himself is, or for another Wario example, Thief Wario. Also, the Metal Mario split brought up last time no longer works since those have been merged, really only leaving WLII and some WarioWare cameos as the oddball. And that's not even getting into the Mini Mario-like "Mini Wario" in Shake It!, which is for all intents and purposes a different form from what is otherwise described here.

- I honestly think this article is just fine. It's just small Wario who in Japan is called Chibi Wario. Occasionally he has different things but that's about it. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 06:52, May 22, 2025 (EDT)
