In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', Wario is one of several costumes available for the [[Mystery Mushroom]] in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' style. He wears his outfit from the [[WarioWare (series)|''WarioWare'']] series. He can be unlocked by scanning a Wario [[amiibo]], or randomly from completing the Super Mario Challenge on any difficulty. If the player taps the "M" of "MARIO" on the title screen, it flips to an upsidedown yellow "W," and a stock voice clip of Wario plays.<ref>{{cite|timestamp=0:09|url=youtu.be/E7GKxTjeqkM?feature=shared&t=9|title=''Super Mario Maker'' - 11 Title Screen Secrets (Easter Eggs)|author=GameXplain|date=August 18, 2015|publisher=YouTube|language=en}}</ref> If the title course is in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style, the "W" will shoot out the Wario Mystery Mushroom costume.

Wario's outfit and [[Wario Cap|hat]] can be purchased at any [[Crazy Cap]] store in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', but the character does not appear himself. One of the methods to obtain either item involves scanning a Wario [[amiibo]]. Both outfits make note of Wario's bad hygiene.<ref>{{cite|author=[[Wario Cap]] description|quote=A cap bearing a distinctive W.

Although Wario does not physically appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', his outfit and [[Wario Cap|hat]] can be purchased at any [[Crazy Cap]] store. His cap costs 100 [[coin]]s, and can alternatively be obtained by either scanning the Wario amiibo or getting 360 [[Power Moon]]s. His outfit, known as the Wario Suit, costs 200 coins, and can also be obtained through the same alternative methods, although it requires 340 Power Moons instead of 360. The description for his hat is: "''A cap bearing a distinctive W. It doesn't fit well and kind of chafes.''", and the description for his outfit is: "''The kind of outfit you want to wash at least once before you wear it.''". Both of these descriptions reference Wario's poor hygiene.

However, Wario has actually prepared a trap for Mario, wanting to get revenge on him for Mario constantly "bullying" Wario in their youth; Wario especially hated playing cowboys with Mario, as he was always the rustler who was captured by "Sheriff Mario" and locked away.

As Mario makes his way to Wario's fortress, he inadvertently defeats all of Wario's minions, oblivious to their hostility towards him. Meanwhile, an angered Wario watches Mario. Eventually, Mario reaches Wario's home and is confronted by a giant-sized Wario. As Wario begins trying to pummel him, Mario notices a plug on him and pulls it, deflating Wario's giant costume and returning him to his normal size.
