Wario is Nintendo's greedy, mischievous rival to Mario, first introduced as a villain in Super Mario Land 2 in 1992 and later starring in his own Wario Land and WarioWare games. His exaggerated evil laugh became one of his most recognisable traits, instantly signalling greed, trickery and self-satisfied glee. As short game audio spread through soundboards, memes and video edits, this clipped laugh found a second life outside gameplay, where creators use it as shorthand for a cartoon villain moment without needing any dialogue or explanation.
About this sound
Wario's gleeful muwaahhh laugh from the Mario games, a short villainous chuckle used in memes when a character reveals a sneaky plan or celebrates a win.
This is Wario's trademark evil laugh, a loud, rising muwaahhh that starts low and swells into a gleeful, mocking cackle. The voice is gruff and theatrical, with a cartoonish bounce that makes the greed and mischief instantly clear even without any picture. It lasts just over a second and a half, so it lands as a quick punch of villain energy rather than a long speech. Hearing it immediately signals that something cheeky is about to happen, turning an ordinary moment into a playful scheme and giving viewers a familiar cue to laugh along with the joke.
