'''Wingo''' is the main antagonist in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''. According to game director Shinya Hiratake, Wingo was based upon both crows, a species of bird stereotypically and incorrectly depicted as interested in shiny objects, and the giant bird Roc from ''[[wikipedia:One Thousand and One Nights|One Thousand and One Nights]]'' (more popularly known as ''Arabian Nights'')<ref name="Miiverse">[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/replies/AYMHAAACAAADVHivKowdGg (translated) Miiverse post from Hiratake] (February 16, 2015): ''"Well, this is how Wingo was created. Adventures involve treasure, so we started off thinking that we needed a creature that gets in the way of him collecting it! We thought, {{'}}How about a crow? They like to collect shiny things!{{'}} and from there, we fused that idea with the image of the giant bird Roc that appears in the Arabian Nights! Actually, the design of the feather on his head was inspired by an item in Super Mario World!"'' Retrived February 16, 2015.</ref>. He is first seen stealing a [[Power Star]] from [[Captain Toad]] and [[Toadette]], Wingo flies away while Toadette holds on to the star, thus capturing her.
