“Watch out for these penguin-looking guys who throw balls at me. If I get hit, I act really strange.”
Wario, Wario Land II

Crazy Wario[1] is one of Wario's reactions in the Wario Land series of games. When hit by a ball thrown by a penguin in the English version of Wario Land II, he becomes hard-to-control, where he will involuntarily move back and forth, though he can still control his jumps. While it is difficult to control him, Wario can attack by belching, the resulting gas being able to defeat enemies. In the Japanese version of Wario Land II, the ball is a mug of beer, implying that Wario is intoxicated in this condition.

In Wario Land 3, Wario achieves this reaction when he gets hit by an orange bird, spinning him around and making him dizzy; however, unlike in Wario Land II, Wario does not change color, and he cannot belch to attack. If damaged or doused in water, Wario will be reverted back to normal.
