Wario Cap: Difference between revisions

The '''Wario Cap''' (or '''Wario's cap''') is [[Wario]]'s traditional headwear. It appears in most games with Wario, but it is usually absent in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series, as Wario wore a biking outfit in that series instead. Like [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], Wario has been seen wearing the cap since he was a [[Baby Wario|baby]], as seen in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. Unlike the [[Mario Cap]], The Wario Cap usually serves no function other than for decorational purposes.

In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Wario's cap can be found and worn by either [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], or [[Yoshi]] to transform into Wario. Until he is unlocked, the only course his cap appears in is the [[Hazy Maze Cave]]. If Wario loses his own cap, his defense and strength will sharply decline, and he will be unable to pick up other characters' caps or turn into [[Metal Mario|Metal Wario]]. If the player collects a [[Power Star]] while the cap is still missing, Wario can retrieve his cap by talking to a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] (who will have found and be wearing it) in the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]'s lobby. The Toad says the cap "reeks pretty bad" and suggests that Wario should wash it out more often.

The Wario Cap is a yellow [[cap]], with a large blue "W" [[emblem]] inside a small white circle and a white rim. The Wario Cap previously appeared in different colors. In some segments of ''[[Wario's Woods]]'', his cap appears purple, although in the SNES version, his cap appears yellow. In ''[[Wario Land II]]'' and ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', the Wario Cap is depicted as white in-game. In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' and ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'', his cap was gray due to the monochrome display of the [[Game Boy]]. In ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' and ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', his cap is depicted as yellow like his official artwork.

The cap has also been imitated on different headgear Wario has worn. Wario's ''WareWare'' helmet is in the style of his cap with the white rim and blue "W" emblem. Wario's safari hat from ''Wario Land'' also has his signature blue "W" emblem.
