In the center of town is a [[Gold Statue|golden statue]] of Wario with a plaque reading "Our Hero". When clicked, the statue sings "Wario" to the tune of the repeated "Figaro"s in the aria {{wp|Largo al factotum|"Largo al factotum"}}. Other buildings include, from left to right, the Pyramid Theater, Wario's Arcade, Wario Mart, a Post Office, and the Greed $chool.

'''Welcome to Greedville''' was a [[Nintendo]] developed {{wp|Adobe Flash}} microsite made to promote the release of ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' on the [[Game Boy Advance]]. It provides the player with a small town that is full of [[Wario]] memorabilia. In the center is a non-interactive golden statue of Wario with a plaque reading "Our Hero". Other buildings include, from left to right, the Pyramid Theater, Wario's Arcade, Wario Mart, a Post Office, and the Greed $chool. If the player does certain things at some of these locations, they earn Wario Bucks which can be spended at other places, such as the Wario Mart.

===Pyramid Theater===
===Pyramid Theater===
The Pyramid Theater is the leftmost building in the town. When inside, there are several things the player can interact with. On the left, there are two documents that can be enlarged. The first is a Gazette review of the movie, reviewed by Wario himself. The other document is a memo, presumably made by the studio that made the movie, as it mentions "[[List of implied organizations#Greedville $tudios LLC|Greedville $tudios LLC]]" under someone with the name "[[List of implied characters#Thaddeus P. Gradgrind|Thaddeus P. Gradgrind]], Chief of Production". As for the movie itself, the player has the option to click through a slideshow of different screenshots of ''Wario Land 4'', as well as view trailers for it. However, the files for the trailers are missing and have currently not been recovered, so it is unknown what trailers played in the theater.
