"Wario is a fictional character in Nintendo's Mario series, designed as an arch-rival to Mario. He first appeared in the 1992 Game Boy game Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins as the main antagonist and final boss. His name is a portmanteau of Mario's name and the Japanese word warui (悪い), meaning "bad". Wario was designed by Hiroji Kiyotake, and is voiced by Charles Martinet, who voices many other characters in the series, including Mario, Luigi, and Waluigi."
"Wario has become the protagonist and antihero of the Wario Land and WarioWare series, spanning handheld and console markets. In addition to appearances in spin-offs in the Mario series, he has appeared in other Nintendo properties, such as in the Super Smash Bros. series of crossover fighting games. He has also been featured in other media such as the Super Mario Adventures graphic novel. The character has received a largely positive critical reception."
