Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack on Nintendo Switch 2 continues to expand its GameCube lineup with the addition of Wario World. Originally released in 2003, the game returns as part of the Nintendo GameCube Nintendo Classics collection. Expect a platformer that trades precision jumping for close range combat, where Wario barrels through enemies, strings together powerful throws, and rips through levels designed around force, momentum, and destruction rather than finesse.
Wario World – GameCube – Nintendo Classics
Nintendo GameCube – Nintendo Classics: Wario World
Released on the GameCube in 2003, this game puts you in control of Wario at his most destructive. After his castle is twisted by a mysterious black jewel and his treasure is stolen, Wario storms through a series of tightly designed stages focused on raw strength rather than precision jumping. Combat is the core. Enemies are grabbed, slammed, thrown, and used to solve puzzles. Progress comes from momentum, brute force, and learning how each form and enemy type changes the way Wario moves and fights.
Fight through enemies, scoop up coins and hidden treasure, and free Spritelings locked inside crates as you move across four distinct areas. Wario’s move set is built around raw power. Techniques like the Wild Swing Ding and the Piledriver are used to damage enemies, break obstacles, trigger switches, and tear open routes that would otherwise block your path.
