Since the mobile games release, Dr. Mario World has introduced players to some really crazy variations on the Mushroom Kingdoms most popular characters. The latest, however, might be the kind of nightmare fuel that literally no person would want helping them heal from any kind of injury: Dr. Baby Wario. Now, first of all, it must be really easy to get a medical degree in the Mushroom Kingdom. Last month, the game introduced Dr. Dolphin, so it seems like medical degrees might actually be found in Question Blocks, there. But even if that is the case, Dr. Dolphin seems far more trustworthy than Dr. Baby Wario.
Dr. Mario Worlds official Twitter account would have you believe that theres something cute about Dr. Baby Wario, but lets immediately set that aside, because Wario and cute have never actually mixed. Baby Mario is adorable, but Baby Wario is kind of haunting. The baby iteration of the character has previously appeared in Mario titles, but hes been reimagined a bit for Dr. Mario World, and its much creepier than before. It could be that new coat and tie. Perhaps its the nose, which seems to be the exact same size it is in Super Mario Land 2: The Six Golden Coins. Of course, his teeth seem to be the same size, too. On that note, what could this kid be eating with those chompers? Wario has always had an affection for garlic, but it seems like this kid was eating whole cloves shortly after birth! Apparently, it was straight to medical school, from there.
If theres one relief to be had, its that Wario clearly didnt stick with the medical profession. By the time he reached middle age, he seemed more concerned with stealing treasure, and even forming his own video game company. Either tossing so many pills into a patient that it literally forms stacks isnt very lucrative, or theres just not a high demand for medical professionals in the Mushroom Kingdom, since apparently even Dolphins can get in on that.
