The Wario series is a series that is a spin off series of the Mario series that stars Wario taken on villains that have a lot of money or stole his money from him. It is the first series that Nintendo created to feature a anti hero.

History
The Wario series started following Wario's first appearance in the Game Boy video game Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins as his role was the main villain. Its sequel was called Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 where Wario was this time the anti hero when he found himself on Kitchen Island to find a statue of Princess Peach. He finally realizes that it was Captain Syrup and her Brown Sugar Pirates that stole the statue. After defeating Syrup Wario got the statue of Princess Peach only to get it stolen by Mario at the end of the game. Wario also got his castle.

Another Wario Land game was released called Virtual Boy Wario Land for the Virtual Boy system. Wario Land II was released for the Game Boy and continued the battle between Wario and Captain Syrup. Syrup and her newly formed Black Sugar Gang flooded Wario's castle and stole his treasure but Wario chased them and defeated Syrup and her Black Sugar Gang to get his treasure back.

In Wario Land 3 Wario went to a cave when he found a music box and wound it and got teleported to a different world where he met a oracle who told him to save the world from the monsters but were actually the people of that world. After defeating all the monsters the orcale revealed himself to Wario as Rudy the Clown. Wario defeated Rudy the Clown and the people thanked him and teleported him back to his own world.

In Wario Land 4 Wario was driving his car in the dessert looking for a treasure he read in a newspaper. He finds this black cat that leads him to this pyramid only to encounter new enemies until he met the owner of the pyramid the Golden Diva who was the main boss. After defeating the Golden Diva Wario later found out that the cat that lead him to the pyramid was Princess Shokora who was cursed by the Golden Diva.

Wario World was a game released for the Nintendo amecube and was Wario's first 3D adventure.
