'''Wart''' | '''Wart''', named '''Mamu''' in Japan and in [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], is the main antagonist of ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. He is the leader of a gang known as the [[8 bits]], and his major appearance centers around his efforts to conquer [[Subcon]], a land of dreams.

Wart's role is similar as in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic''. Just as before, he used the hijacked Dream Machine and his army (known as the [[8 bits]]) to conquer Subcon. Instead of fighting him, the [[Subcon (species)|natives]] of Subcon make contact with [[Mario]] through one of his dreams, pleading for him to save them and telling him about Wart's weakness: vegetables. The next day he, [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], and [[Toad]] discover a door to Subcon and decide to save the dream world from Wart. The battle with Wart is largely the same, except it takes six vegetables to defeat Wart. After his defeat, Wart is seen one last time during the victory celebrations, being crowd-surfed across the screen by the now-freed Subcons. As he disappears off the screen, the Subcons pummel him one last time. During the cast roll, Wart appears laughing at the very end. | |||
In the [[Super Mario Advance|Game Boy Advance version]], Wart is given dialogue, and speaks clear sentences such as, ''"I am the great Wart!"'' and ''"Ah, ribbit!"''. The 8 bits is also given another major member, [[Robirdo]]. One minor difference is that after he is defeated, Wart's body becomes intangible to the player, unlike in the original ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' (and its port in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''), where the player can still take damage from contact with his defeat animation. The remake expands on Wart by implying he is capable of casting magic. This is shown in cutscenes prior to fighting [[Fryguy]] and [[Clawgrip]], bosses that are initially seen in a weaker form before bubbles that resemble Wart's arrive to envelop them. The bubbles transform his minions into their massive forms. | |||

Wart can be found in every [[jar]] in [[Subspace]], where his room is actually identical to that of the final room of the factory (World 7-2) from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''.

Wart | Wart appears in a few ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'' stories. He first appears in the issue "[[Cloud Nine (comic)|Cloud Nine]]," where he is disguised as a bed salesman, abducts the [[Mushroom King]] and also tries to flood the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Notably in this story, Mario mentions Wart had abducted the king on at least one previous occasion. In "[[Duh Stoopid Bomb!]]", where his name is seen on [[Wooster]]'s list of people who think the Mushroom King is dumb. Wart has his second role in "[[Tanooki Suits Me]]," in which [[Bowser]] plans to sell Wart pieces of artwork that he had stolen from [[Peach's Castle|the Mushroom Castle]]'s Royal Art Gallery for a huge profit. However, a disguised Mario is stolen along with the artwork and, upon discovering Bowser's plot, manages to fool Wart into believing that the artwork is nothing more than worthless droplets of the [[Apook Corporation]]. In comparison to ''Cloud Nine'', Wart here bears a closer resemblance to his official artwork appearance. | ||

Wart | Wart's first appearance in a ''[[Nintendo Adventure Books]]'' book is ''[[Doors to Doom]]''. [[Dr. Sporis von Fungenstein]] had convinced him to convert the denizens of Subcon into surfers, and when the Mario Brothers meet Wart, he is friendly and welcoming, munching on a corn dog and playing a [[Game Boy]]. He tries to trade a garage door opener, which is a required item for the book's good ending, for one of the brothers' hats. However, Wart is still a potentially dangerous figure; making the wrong choices when trying to enter his lair results in [[Game Over]]s, either by being assaulted by Wart on his skateboard or being exposed to dangerously loud rock music. Also, when trading with him, offering him Luigi's hat (which is too small for him) ends up with Wart ripping the hat and a furious Luigi insulting him in response. If Luigi follows up on his anger by attacking Wart with vegetables, Wart counters by spitting them back and running the brothers down with his skateboard, also resulting in a Game Over. | ||
In | In ''[[Dinosaur Dilemma]]'', Wart has a cameo as one of the guests invited to the party Bowser is holding at his [[Dinosaur Island]] [[Bowser's Castle|Castle]], in honor of being chosen as the recipient of that year's Snowbell Prize. The text introduces Wart as "the king of the Land of Nightmares". | ||

During the trip to Wart's castle, the group loses Birdo to Mouser's bombs, and they are later reached by Toad and Birdo's twin, all while Wart watches them from hidden cameras, sending his army's generals against them. In chapter 5, the heroes face Wart and, even though they learn from the booklet that Warts should die to the vegetables they collected, Wart gladly eats the greens without getting harmed, since he made a spell to prevent that. Trapped in his bubbles, Birdo manages to escape and calls her other sister, who brings the [[Bonus Chance]] roulette, finally hurting Wart by crushing him. | During the trip to Wart's castle, the group loses Birdo to Mouser's bombs, and they are later reached by Toad and Birdo's twin, all while Wart watches them from hidden cameras, sending his army's generals against them.

In the next chapter, Wart molts himself into a nightmarish beast, which is a mix of his body and his generals': Wart's head, Tryclyde as hairs, Clawgrip's body and claws, Mouser's infinite bomb ammunition and Fryguy's flammable aura. With his friends each falling to a different part of Wart's new body, Toad summons a door with a magic potion, but it does not lead to a Subspace, but to a ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' Toad House from which he takes a [[treasure chest]] full of every ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' power-up (as well as a [[Poison Mushroom]] from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' that is taken by Luigi). With the [[Anchor]], Mario freezes Wart and the heroes attacks him with all their might, but Wart laughs: since they are in the realm of dreams, he can wish for anything he thinks of. In a matter of seconds, the power-ups disappear and the heroes are all trapped in glue. | In the next chapter, Wart molts himself into a nightmarish beast, which is a mix of his body and his generals': Wart's head, Tryclyde as hairs, Clawgrip's body and claws, Mouser's infinite bomb ammunition and Fryguy's flammable aura.

In the next and last ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' chapter, Wart puts the glued heroes outside his castle, so that they form the word "STUPID(S)". Later, the entirety of Bowser's Castle falls on top of Wart's and breaks the heroes out of the glue: having disappeared from the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach forced the Koopa Troop to find Mario. Bowser and Mario join forces and attack Wart, but he is no match for them and tries to send his army against him, but they are too tired. Mario tries to do something by taking the Subspace Mushroom to the army in order to make them stronger, but Wart zaps him. This does not help him, however, since he just fuses Mario with a [[Thwomp]], a [[Koopa Troopa]], a [[Paragoomba]], a [[Bullet Bill]]. With the powers of all the Koopa Troop with which he has combined, Mario finally kills Wart and turns back to normal. Wart, though, is not finished, and his ghost possesses his castle's crumbles, creating a giant Wart face made of stone, but Yoshi summons with the dream power an army of hungry [[Baby Yoshi]]s that eat the stone face, finally defeating Wart. | In the next and last ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' chapter, Wart puts the glued heroes outside his castle, so that they form the word "STUPID(S)".
