Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 is a Game Boy video game released in 1994. It was the first Wario Land video game, though at the same time was the third Super Mario Land title to be released on the Game Boy (despite the name, it starred Wario instead of Mario. In fact, Mario doesn't even appear in the game. Nevertheless, it really started Wario's franchise, and most future games within the series would retain a similar theme of greed. It was the first Nintendo developed game in which the motive of the character was a bit iffy compared to something such as saving the world. Instead, the only goal Wario has is to collect as much money as possible.
