Diamond City is a city in the WarioWare series. Wario claims that it is "his city" that he has made into a "sparkling gem of a metropolis." Here, Wario and his friends develop microgames for WarioWare, Inc., and most of them reside here.

Location

Diamond City is mentioned by Orbulon to be located on Earth. A map of a planet vaguely resembling the real Earth can be seen in Wario's House in WarioWare: Twisted!, with a more accurate depiction appearing in his house in WarioWare: Touched!, WarioWare: Smooth Moves, and Game & Wario. However, a completely different Earth-like planet is seen in the opening and ending cutscene of WarioWare Gold and in WarioWare: Get It Together! In the opening cutscene of WarioWare: Get It Together!, structures from Santa Monica and Century City in California are used.[1][2] Additionally, descriptions for Orbulon's microgames mention Asia and Japan, though he visits completely fictional locations during the cutscene for his Culture microgames.

In WarioWare: Twisted!, it can be seen that Diamond City is located on an island.
