Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!

WARIO BLAST: FEATURING BOMBERMAN!

Wario Blast: featuring Bomberman! is a Game Boy game that is actually technically a reskin of the original Bomberman GB as released in Japan, but basically just had Wario added in for the western releases. As such, it's really more of a Bomberman game that just so happens to have Wario in it.

As we will be covering the actual Bomberman GB when the time comes, I'm not going to spend too much time here. Any moves given to Wario will not weigh too heavily, as they are really just Bomberman moves, and Bomberman himself will not be considered here, as he will be covered in his own series when we get to it, as with pretty much all bosses and other characters.

What we can cover, however, includes all of Wario's personal abilities. First he uses a dimensional portal to enter Bomberman's world, so that's a thing, I guess. He can drop bombs, kick bombs some distance, travel through warp holes, dash forward, knock your enemies into walls, place bombs in a line, and jump over blocks. I should put a pin in these to remember for Bomberman later, I imagine.

Here's what we've got so far:

Characters:
Mario
Luigi: remove bucket
Princess Peach
Yoshi
Toad: pick up and put down
Wario: drop bucket/items, fly in plane, teleport, inflate, shoot blast, thwomp, drop bombs, kick bombs, warp holes, dash, the trouncer, liner, moto.
Wanda: smack with hammer, break blocks, turn around, create blocks, fly, springs, drop bombs
Birdo
Bomberman: drop bombs

Stages:
Stage based on Mario & Wario
Stage based on Wario's Woods
Stage based on Wario Blast!

Thanks for reading! Next up, we'll cover Virtual Boy Wario Land!
