TheW Emblem is abadge inPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and itsNintendo Switch remake. It can be bought fromCharlieton for 360coins in the original or 432 coins in the remake. It can be sold for 150 coins. IfMario equips the badge, it changes the color scheme of his clothes to resembleWario's, turning his hat and shirt yellow, his buttons white, his overalls purple, his shoes green, and his emblem blue. This look somewhat mirrors Mario's yellow costume from theSuper Smash Bros. series (excludingSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate). If combined with theL Emblem, Mario's clothes resembleWaluigi's, turning his hat and shirt purple, his overalls black, his shoes orange, and his emblem yellow.

In the remake, if W Emblem is equipped during the first battle withDoopliss when he steals Mario's name and body, his Mario disguise retains the badge's color scheme for the rest of Chapter 4, even if the badge is unequipped at any point before Mario gets his name and body back. Dialogue from certainTwilighters is also changed to describe W Emblem's color scheme rather than Mario's usual colors. This also applies if W Emblem is equipped when fighting Doopliss in thePalace of Shadow.

Notes[edit]

• In the demo version of the game, it was shown that the W Emblem was going to be purple.
• This is the only reference to Wario and Waluigi in aPaper Mario game.
• The W Emblem's price in the remake appears to begoroawase: 432 can be read as4よ3み2じ (yomiji), which can be taken to mean「黄泉路よみじ」("the road to the land of the dead"). This refers toYomi ("the Yellow Springs"), which is the land of the dead or "underworld" in Japanese mythology. The connections to yellow and the underworld can be seen as references to Wario's characteristics.
