:::And there's also the obvious: this is the ''only'' Wario platformer to not be listed as related to the ''Wario Land'' series. If this fails, we might have to reconsider the relatedness of ''[[Wario World]]'', what with it being a linear, 3D beat-em-up/platformer hybrid with a notable lack of transformations of any kind.

::::@Camwoodstock: All of those games you linked/mentioned are named for the series they're a part of, which is far more important than returning characters, gameplay elements, etc. That's why ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' is a part of the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series despite starting life as a [[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic|mostly unrelated game]], playing nothing like other installments, and featuring Wart as the villain instead of Bowser and his Koopa Troop. ''Wario: Master of Disguise'' does not bear the ''Wario Land'' | ::::@Camwoodstock: All of those games you linked/mentioned are named for the series they're a part of, which is far more important than returning characters, gameplay elements, etc. That's why ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' is a part of the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series despite starting life as a [[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic|mostly unrelated game]], playing nothing like other installments, and featuring Wart as the villain instead of Bowser and his Koopa Troop. ''Wario: Master of Disguise'' does not bear the ''Wario Land'' nor is it marketed as a part of the series or even as a spinoff of it, hence why those secondary factors are more relevant here in determining related-ness. | ||
::::@DrippingYellow: Honestly, ''Wario World'' has barely anything to do with ''Wario Land'' itself, and falls into a similar boat of "it's a platformer starring Wario and Wario likes money and treasure". It seems that people consider it and ''MoD'' ''Wario Land''-adjacent (if not straight up part of the series) purely for that reason alone (and I guess because the Dash Attack made it into both), since ''Wario Land'' came first and is the only one with proper sequels. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 19:56, December 6, 2023 (EST) | ::::@DrippingYellow: Honestly, ''Wario World'' has barely anything to do with ''Wario Land'' itself, and falls into a similar boat of "it's a platformer starring Wario and Wario likes money and treasure".

:::::We raise you [[Donkey Kong 64]]. No "Country" in its name, but it's generally considered to be a part of the Donkey Kong Country games, or at least a "related game" to it; it literally has Rareware's own development team behind it, after all. This still is not a new case. {{User:Camwoodstock/sig}} 20:35, December 6, 2023 (EST) | :::::We raise you [[Donkey Kong 64]].
