More photos from the 1993 Nintendo Character Manual – Wario was Mario’s childhood friend

Another round of photos from the 1993 Nintendo Character Manual have been posted online.

Some interesting tidbits are shared in the various scans – such as how Wario was once Mario’s childhood friend, and not his evil brother.

Did you know that Bowser “decided to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom because he could not stand the idea of happy fungi”? Or how about the fact that Toad also apparently goes by the name “Little Toadie”?

View the gallery above for all of the recently-scanned character bios.
