Despite being the first character-based sub-series of ''Mario'' (predating ''VideoGame/YoshisIsland'', ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'', and ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion''), the ''Wario'' franchise is notable for lacking the coherence of its sisters, as the platformer and ''[=WarioWare=]'' branches of the franchise rarely ever reference one another and never share any characters. Even the ''Wario Land'' games tend to not share characters between installments, with the only recurring character besides Wario himself being his [[TheRival arch-rival]] Captain Syrup. Also the ''Wario'' franchise has virtually no presence within the extended ''Mario'' universe[[note]]The only time ''Wario'' characters have appeared in the extended ''Mario'' universe was ''[[VideoGame/DrMario Dr. Mario 64]]''[[/note]] unlike its sister franchises. Wario himself is a staple character of the various ''Mario'' sports and party spinoffs, but none of the characters from either ''Wario Land'' or ''[=WarioWare=]'' appear alongside him. In the spinoffs, Wario usually gets an AmbiguouslyRelated companion named Waluigi, a taller and leaner counterpart to Luigi, but Waluigi himself doesn't appear within the core ''Wario'' series in any capacity.

Wario eventually came into his own as the star of his own platformer series, ''VideoGame/WarioLand''.
