'''''Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!''''' is a crossover game between the [[Wario (franchise)|''Wario'' franchise]] and [[Hudson Soft]]'s ''{{iw|wikipedia|Bomberman}}'' series that was released in 1994 and 1995 in North America and Europe, respectively. The game is a reskinned version of ''{{iw|nwiki|Bomberman GB}}'', which was released in Japan in August 1994. The ''Wario'' franchise theme was exclusively added to {{wp|Western world|Western}} releases. Aside from Wario's presence, the game is mostly unchanged and plays like other ''Bomberman'' titles. The ''Bomberman GB'' released in the West is actually the Japanese ''Bomberman GB 2''.

The player takes the role of either [[Wario]] or [[Bomberman]] and fights against up to three copies of the other character. Wario's goal is to rob [[Bomberland]], while Bomberman's is to protect it. In every round, the player has to defeat the enemies by strategically placing [[bomb]]s, while the enemies are able to do the same.

==Story==
'''Story from the instruction booklet'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!'' instruction booklet|page=4|date=1994|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref>
:'''''WARIO INVADES THE LAND OF THE MADBOMBERS!'''<br><br>Wario, in his constant search for new lands to conquer and trea-<br>sures to gain, has found the extra-dimensional portal<br>that links his world with the one that Bomberman<br>inhabits. Thinking that the Madbombers will make a<br>nice addition to his legions of mindless minions (as<br>well as a new source of funds for his nefarious<br>schemes), Wario steps through the gate... and soon<br>finds that the Madbombers are not quite the dim-wit-<br>ted flunkies he originally thought them to be!

[[File:Planetbomber.png|thumb|left|The ending cutscene]]
After completing the game, regardless of which character the player chose, Bomberman rides a [[moto]]rcycle across a canyon. Wario appears, also on a motorcycle, and the two chase each other back and forth indefinitely until the player resets the game.

==Gameplay==
[[File:WarioBlast.png|thumb|Gameplay screenshot]]
The game shares its objective with other ''Bomberman'' games. The player has to blow up between one to three opponent(s) via the use of bombs to advance, while they try to do the same to the player. The entire game is played from a top-down perspective. The player maneuvers around a grid-like playing field, setting off bombs to blow up unsuspecting enemies, and destroy [[block (Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!)|block]]s to clear the way and to reveal occasional [[Normal Item]]s. The player wins by defeating the enemy [[Madbomber]]s (which take on the appearance of the character not chosen). Every level is played with a best-of-3 rule. If the player wins two times, they gain access to the next level. Failure to do so results in a [[Game Over]].  

The player can choose to play as either [[Wario]] or [[Bomberman]], but this does not change any aspects of gameplay other than the appearance of the Madbombers, of cutscenes, and reversing the digits of the passwords given for each level.

When playing the game on the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] with a [[Super Game Boy]], an additional multiplayer mode for up to four players is available, known as the Battle Mode.<ref>{{cite|date=1994|publisher=Nintendo of America|quote=Of course, what would a Bomberman game be without a Battle Mode?|title=''Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!'' instruction booklet|language=en-us|page=4-5}}</ref> In this mode, two or more players are able to play against each other, with up to four players being supported using the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System#Super Multitap|Super Multitap]].

The game also contains a secret game mode called "[[The Battle]]" (not to be confused with the Battle Mode), available by entering the password 5656 on the title screen to play as Bomberman, or 6565 to play as Wario. In this mode, the player starts with all power-ups, and the goal is to defeat endless waves of opponents to obtain a high score.

==Zones and Stages==
There are eight rounds in total, which feature three stages and one boss level per round. In each stage, Wario (or Bomberman) starts in the top left corner, and each stage is made of a square grid of walls, with destructible [[Block (Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!)|block]]s added randomly throughout the center of the stage. In the first stage, the arena is large, and only one Madbomber is present. In the second stage, the arena is medium, and two Madbombers are present. In the third stage, the arena is small, and three Madbombers are present. In boss stages, the arena is the same size as the third stage, and instead of blocks, [[Explosion Expander]]s and [[Extra Bomb]]s are randomly placed throughout the arena. Select stages will feature gimmicks, such as tiles or unique rules; unlike destructible blocks, the tiles will always be in the same place every playthrough.

==References in later games==
''Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!'' is not directly referenced in later games, but it began a trend in [[Nintendo]] spin-offs that associates [[Wario]] with [[bomb]]s. Technically, bombs having any relevance to Wario first appeared in ''[[Wario's Woods (Nintendo Entertainment System)|Wario's Woods]]'', but in this game, they are solely used against him. Beginning in ''[[Mario Party]]'', Wario has an association with [[Bob-omb]]s as his home stage, [[Wario's Battle Canyon]], features the landscape of a canyon wrought with explosions from a war between Bob-ombs and [[Bob-omb Buddy|Bob-omb Buddies]], which Wario appears to be manipulating out of greed. In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', Wario's association with Bob-ombs continues, as one is his default partner in the game's duel mode. In ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'', Bob-ombs line the walls in Wario's home stage, [[Wario Court]], as well as his joint venture with [[Waluigi]], [[Wario & Waluigi Court]]. In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', Wario's special item is the Bob-omb. In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Wario is one of the two characters who have a Bob-omb-themed minigame in the [[Rec Room (Super Mario 64 DS)|Rec Room]]. In ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'', Wario's home stage [[Wario Factory (Mario Hoops 3-on-3)|Wario Factory]] has several Bob-ombs (ones larger than the Bob-omb one gets as an item) that appear as stage-exclusive hazards for the players. In ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', Wario hits a bomb in addition to a baseball as his special move. In the ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' comics, Wario is the owner of a bomb shop. Lastly, the timer and logo for the minigames in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' games is a [[bomb (WarioWare series)|bomb]] with Wario's mustache on it.
