Talk:Virtual Boy Wario Land

Enemies
Contributing to this wiki's unofficial Wario Land enemies drive, here are the enemies from Virtual Boy Wario. Japanese Wikipedia does not provide names, so, hopefully, the descriptions I give you will be useful in tracking them down (for instance, through the Mario Dictionary). So, here we go:
 * Level 1
 * A little frog thing that just gets in your way.
 * A bat that drops things on your head.
 * A minotaur type guy with a spear who knocks down doors to come at you.


 * Level 2
 * A skull that walks on the ceiling and drops when you come near.
 * Knock the mask off the Mask Guy and a new enemy is created, pretty much a Beach Koopa.


 * Level 3
 * A sawshark in a Jason mask.
 * A REALLY big fish that lunges at you from the background. Pretty much identical to an enemy from Wario Land 4.
 * A normally harmless black spiny fish that can turn red and chase you.


 * Level 4
 * An anglerfish boss with a mace where his angler should be.


 * Level 5
 * A chicken with a spear nose.
 * A fat cat that just gets in your way.
 * Another fat cat who rides flying leaves and carries a shield.
 * Still another cat; this one hangs from walls and throws spears.


 * Level 6
 * A burly little guy who uses his hat as a weapon.
 * A tadpole with horns.


 * Level 7
 * A living mine with a rocket attached.
 * A REALLY big mosquito.
 * A man-eating cactus. Sometimes there are whole floors made of them, like with Munchers.


 * Level 8
 * Another boss. This one is a swordfish with a snorkel who burrows through sand.


 * Level 9
 * A mole that tunnels through walls to charge at Wario.
 * An evil flower that shoots spores.
 * A little bee man similar to a Fighter Fly who drops maces on your head.
 * An evil watermelon blocking a door. You need to do a puzzle to get past him.


 * Level 10
 * A flying mask with blades on its sides.
 * A Mask Guy variation whose spikes are on the top of the head.
 * Another evil mask resembling a large Phanto.
 * Smaller versions of the preceding spawned by him.
 * A chicken that comes out of the cuckoo clocks.
 * An exploding robot bird dropped by the chicken.


 * Level 11
 * A cannon hanging from the ceiling that shoots lasers.
 * Another cannon, this one shoots exploding magma balls.
 * A little squid guy who busts platforms out from underneath you.


 * Level 12
 * Guarding the boss is a robot with a spiked head who shoots fire. You need to get him to flip over to expose his weak spot.
 * The boss is a robot clown that scatters bombs.


 * Level 13
 * Two types of spike-shooting cannons; big ones that shoot front to back and small ones that shoot back to front.


 * Level 14
 * And finally, guarding the way to the mastermind is another spiked robot that shoots rockets instead of fire.

Hope this helps.

P.S. Does anyone know if this game is covered by the Big Dictionary site? Can't navigate that for the life of me. SixFaceSal 22:29, 25 December 2009 (EST)
 * I also have problems navigating that site, since I don't know how one can only list entries for a certain game. But a quick Google search only gave me names of enemies mentioned in the manual, so the official names might really be unknown. There is no official guide for the game as far as I know, so we probably have to go with conjectural names for all of those you mentioned. --Grandy02 05:21, 30 January 2011 (EST)

Information?
So, I found out that my virtual boy still works (if only I was any good at playing it still!). It seems like a lot of information is missing about this game, am I just not finding it or do we still need to add it? --Turkishcoffee 00:57, 11 April 2010 (EDT)

I agree that a lot of information is missing, but that is a result of the game not being too accessible.-- 12:35, 31 January 2011 (EST)

Official boss names
The bosses found in Virtual Boy Wario Land aren't seen in the manual, or any other official sources I could find. So, like what was done here, I has a try of writing to Nintendo of America, requesting the official boss/enemy names. This was their reply; "Hello,"

"Thank you for writing. This game is a real blast from the past for me. I'm glad I'm able to respond to your request to try and help you get the information you are looking for. Since this game is so old, the amount of information I have is limited. While I'm unable to find the name of all the enemies, I was able to find the official name of all the bosses. The names of all the bosses, mini bosses and the stages you find them on are as follows:"

Bosses:


 * Stage 04: Dinosaur Fish
 * Stage 08: Sand Fish
 * Stage 12: Tank and Operator
 * Stage 14: Demon Head

Mini-Bosses:


 * Stage 07: Big Blob
 * Stage 10: Face Ball

"I hope you find this information helpful."

"Sincerely," Brian McFarlane Nintendo of America Inc. I'm sure this will be useful.
