Wario World (ワリオワールド, Wario Wārudo) is a platforming adventure game developed by Treasure and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo GameCube. It was released internationally in summer 2003, marking Wario's first starring appearance on a home games console. The game's plot centers around Wario and his quest to regain his treasure and his castle from an evil black jewel.

The game was fairly well-received by reviewers. Critics praised the gameplay but generally found the game to be too short. Wario World has sold over 142,000 copies in Japan and over 256,000 copies in the United States. In 2004, the game was re-released as a Player's Choice title.

This title has been tested on the environments listed below:

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
r6204	Windows 7	Intel Pentium E5300 @ 2.6 GHz	ATI Radeon HD 5450	Perfect: The game is fully playable at 50FPS (PAL) with DX9 plug-in.	Markon89
r6562	Windows 7	Intel Pentium E5300 @ 2.6 GHz	ATI Radeon HD 5450	Perfect: this is the last revision that fully support Wario World, in r6563 the game freezes and the screen became black. I think the problem is: Disabled the paired single multiply instruction in r6563. I hope that the developers are able to solve the problem.	Markon89
r6887	Windows Vista	Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 @ 2.2 GHz	ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470	Unplayable: The game freezes after one minute. 30-60FPS with DX9 plug-in and OpenCL Enabled.
r7310	Windows 7	Intel Pentium E5300 @ 2.6 GHz	ATI Radeon HD 5450	The game doesn't work with the newer version like the r7310 but i don't know why,the game freeze after 1-2 minutes because the screen became black, or white it depends.	Markon89
r7540	Windows 7	Intel Core i7-2600K @3.4 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6950	The game seems to freeze less with JITIL experimental recompiler instead of the regular JIT recompiler. I used Direct3D9 and LLE as sound output.	Maverick Hunter X
r7583	Ubuntu 11.04	Intel Core i7-2630QM	AMD Radeon HD 6650	FPS 60, speed 100%. But the Game freezes immediately when you start to play. Freezes after 1-2 minutes with JIT experimental recompiler.	Somerset
r7606	Ubuntu 11.04	Intel Core i7-2630QM	AMD Radeon HD 6650	So far, the game doesn't freeze anymore with the regular JIT recompiler.	Somerset
3.0	Windows Vista	Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6870	Dx9, 2x native res, no AA, 1x AF, 60FPS except if screen is filled with enemies, then it drops to about 80%.
3.0	Windows 7	Intel Pentium E5300 @ 2.6 GHz	ATI Radeon HD 5450	The game works perfect with the new version, no graphical glitches and no freeze, the problem was completely overcome	Markon89
3.0-204	Windows 7	Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.4 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6990	Game runs perfectly at 60FPS with DX9 plug-in. Sound issues resolved via LLE recompiler.
3.0-415	Mac OS X 10.6.8	Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.13 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce 9400M	Strangely it runs much faster when EFB is set to RAM, not texture. Nearly full speed all the time with RAM. Sound glitches do occur, just like in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
3.0-458	Windows 7	AMD Athlon II X3 450 @ 3.2 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6670	DX9 Backend with DSP LLE Recompiler + on Thread = 60FPS. No errors by now.	Faefdsedf
3.0-758	Windows 7	AMD Athlon II 4X 635 @ 3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480	Great game, emulates perfectly @ 4X AA, 16X AA, 1920x1080 widescreen.	ALLEN2
4.0	Windows 7	Intel Core i3-2350M 2.3 GHz	Intel HD	Best configuration 60FPS 100% SPEED. Slows with DSP HLE and LLE too	gamecubewii
4.0-717	Windows 7	AMD Phenom II 975 @ 4.12 GHz	AMD R9 290	Internal resolution set to 3x Native with Scaled EFB copies, running in fullscreen@1920x1080, D3D backend, unchecked "Ignore format changes", EFB Enabled and set to virtual, using openMP texture decoder and DSP LLE recompiler, Framelimit set to 60, no vsync, using a real GameCube controller and all other options/hacks at their defaults. Runs at a full, stable 60FPS with no noticeable slowdowns or drops in FPS. Certain levels display some tearing in specific locations, but nothing intrusive or long-lasting.	incassum
4.0-4446	Ubuntu 14.04	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650	Able to complete entire game including final boss. Audio and graphics accurate using all default settings. No missing sounds in HLE, and I did not experience the clipping issue, probably fixed in tev_fixes_new. Ran 100% the whole way through, only very minor slowdown on the final boss intro and the opening cutscenes. Perfect.	Xerxes
4.0-6251	Mac OS X 10.10.3	Intel Core i7-4770K @ 4 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970	Runs at a stable 60FPS with HLE audio at 3x native with 2x AA, 16x AF, forced texture filtering. Graphics settings: v-sync, scaled EFB copy, per-pixel lighting, skip EFB access from CPU, ignore format changes, store EFB copies to texture only, texture cache accuracy slider all the way at safe. LLE recompiler drops the framerate by about 5FPS (to ~55) seemingly at random.
4.0-9440	Windows 10	Intel Core i7-2630QM	AMD Radeon HD 6650	Works fine at full speed. Minor slowdowns, but still very playable.	francis
5.0-15993	Windows 10	Intel Core i5-2300 @ 2.8 GHz	AMD Radeon HD 6770	Direct3D 11, 3x IR, 1x AF, 1x MSAA. Runs at full speed. At this point (completed world 1 out of 4), the only issue has been during the boss battle at the end of World 1. The game bounces back and forth between 4:3 and 16:9, even with the 16:9 Gecko code turned off. Despite this, the boss battle is still playable.	SpectraNocturne
