You're comparing Luigi to Waluigi?

Luigi was already developed when Smash 64 appeared, unlike Waluigi.

Back in the days of the NES there wasn't really any room for "filler" characters Luigi was just a different colourd Mario for two player but in the second game he was playable... and in super Mario world and in loads of others.

While on the other hand Waluigi was a filler character and has only appeared in CHEAP spin offs i mean why put him in over ALL the other ones? well er... um... hmm... he could throw bombs or something.

And about all that "This is the place to develop" crap! its a load of rubbish! like i said before this isn't the place to develop the place the develop IS in main canon games no where else really.

And when Sakurai said "character development" in the SE update he meant in the story not the character as a whole.

Good idea! I guess for his Final Smash, Waluigi could... throw bombs... or something.
I love that line!

And Smash is not a place where a character can develop. Smash is a place where developed and well established characters come together to beat eachother up. Notice that EVERY single character is important to their series'? Even the Pokemon. They didn't just pick any old Pokemon for Melee, they picked the most popular ones, the cream of the Pokemon crop. And since Lucario is the most popular Pokemon at this day and age, there's no doubt in my mind we'll be seeing him as an addition to the cast. And you know what? That may be all that we'll be getting from them.

And Waluigi isn't the "top most requested Mario character", Geno is. Then there's other characters who get more support than Waluigi, like Toad for example, also Baby Mario/Luigi, the Hammer Bros were more supported than Waluigi, and even Chain Chomp was supported more than him! Waluigi is on Nintendo's sh*tlist right now. Nobody wants him, not even the fans.

Oh and just for the record... Waluigi wouldn't rep the Mario spin-off games. We have Mario to rep the Mario spin-off games. That's why his name is in the titles.

Guys...Luigi stopped being a filler at the point of SMB2 (US). He was a completely different character then and had different moves. Also, has Waluigi appeared in a hit 80's TV kids show?? I think not.

Waluigi is the best Mario character that won't--and shouldn't, at least yet--be a playable character in Brawl. Once they start to develop the character a little with appearances outside of the sports/kart/party world, then he'll be ready to Smash. =)

(Seriously, though: how can someone dislike the crotch chops? Pure gold.)

Technically, Waluigi was supposed to be comparable to Luigi. I mean that's what he was intended for... but you just can't. Luigi is a million times better than Waluigi ever will be.
some time back they were comparing him with Mario and Link :mad: !!

i was laughing so hard!! . and they were serious!1 i was WTF the whole argument!!

Love never blows up and gets killed.
the only Mario characters that deserve to have a spot in brawl now are: Geno, Toad and Bowser Jr.

everyone else don't have a chance. (maybe ATs or a stage background) and thats it.

who the **** are you kidding?

Bowser Jr. and Toad both suck. and Bowser Jr., a lot like Daisy, has only appeared in one non-spin off title. Bowser Jr. has as much of a chance as Waluigi does.

Toad will be an assist Trophy at best, just because he rarely serves a purpose in Mario platformers aside from congrahulating you on saving the princess or tell you where the princess is. Mario bros. 2 is an exception, but the only one.

Geno can't be i nthis game unless SquareEnix grants permission, seeing how the character is co-owned by both Nintendo and SquareEnix. This is why there's never been a Super Mario RPG direct sequel featuring Geno and Mallow.

Saying Bowser JR and Toad have as much chance as Waluigi is just wrong!

Bowser jr has become a main character in the Mario franchise being a main villain in a dancing game two main canon Mario titles!

Toad shouldn't be a character, only a feature to Peach so she can be a Wobbafett-like player. Slippy should get in if Falco was in. I'm suprised that Geno and Mallow havn't been in a sequel. They'd better put them on Virtual console. Bowser junior could be a support trophy, bowser clone, or event guy.

Yeah I agree Bowser Jr. has the same chance as waluigi to get in, he hasn't done anything important besides being Bowser's Son and being the main villain in a game.

Unlike Waluigi, who appeared with Wario in the Warioware and Wario land games, and that starred in thousands of canon games, like Super Mario 64 DS, that had Mario Luigi Wario and Waluigi to just complete the four.

He also has a lot of personality, he's greedy, and that sums his personality very well, unlike Mario and Link, Link never talks, so he doesn't have as much personality as Waluigi.

Also Waluigi pwns, he could pwn ridley and king dedede 'cause he's that popular, i hear they're not going to add more characters because they're going to make Wabowser and develop him in smash, 'cause that's what smash is for, a place to develop undeveloped characters like Pikachu, a character that just has appeared in a game with no special plot.

None of you haters are listening, we're comparing how they started!

Why are you haters enjoying beating up your own point!? I just turned around on you and now you won't let it go!

No just Crime watch XD

But seriously they try to compare Waluigi to Luigi how sad.
Do none of you listen!?

^^^^

Ughh you could make someone kill themselves with a treatment like this.

who the **** are you kidding?

I agree about bowser jr.

Toad will be an assist Trophy at best, just because he rarely serves a purpose in Mario platformers aside from congrahulating you on saving the princess or tell you where the princess is. Mario bros. 2 is an exception, but the only one.

go on over to the toad thread and try that.

Geno can't be i nthis game unless SquareEnix grants permission, seeing how the character is co-owned by both Nintendo and SquareEnix. This is why there's never been a Super Mario RPG direct sequel featuring Geno and Mallow.
Sakurai likes retro,so he has a chance.
Oh, and my words are in red.

I agree

I disagree about toad, but smrpg is going to be a VC game soon.

@ Dizzy Necron:

@Gindor:

who are you kidding? toad was one of the original 8 mario cart characters, the only one not in brawl yet. he has appeared in so many mario games, he could have lots of moves.

in sakurai's polls, geno wasn't in the third party poll, he was in the nintendo character poll. he tied for second.

and as much as i hate bowser jr, he is becoming increasingly popular. lots of people are even thinking of him as a shoe-in, because they are sure mario will gain another character

^^Technically, Koopa Troopa and DK Jr have yet to be in smash yet...but I agree. Love or hate 'em, Bowser Jr has been the main villain in Mario Sunshine and New Super Mario Bros, two canon Mario titles. That's two more than Waluigi.

And yes, Toad probably should be an AT based on his long standing role in Mario games. Part of the story, but not that important. That is still miles ahead of Waluigi who has yet to be a part of any true Mario game (or Wario game, for that matter).

The only thing that makes Waluigi cool is that "Suck it" animation he does in Super Mario Strikers. (Which is why I play with him in that game.)

If he did that in SSBB I would play with him. A lot.

Sadly, I must agree as a ridley (and many more) supporter.

Welcome to the crew! (though I do not support him for the crotch chop)

aghh every time!-sorry for the double post but this is important!

After seeing poke trainers oddity, almost every other character that fans want is pretty normal and not out of the ordinary. Sakurai wants oddities. But he also want's to make the crowds happy. He has shuffled every characters' chances!
Waluigi's luck can't get any worse, so the shuffle can't do him any harm.

Waluigi (randomizer style) for brawl!

TWO non-spin off titles. He's in New Super Mario Brothers, too. A LOT.

By the way, in terms of action Mario games, there have only ever been two non-spin off titles ever since Bowser Jr's introduction, too. New Super Mario Brothers and Super Mario Sunshine. Bowser Jr. is in BOTH of them. So that's 2 for 2 so far.

Get your facts straight before flaming, because having them wrong makes you look like an idiot.

But the crotch chop is hillarious!

I will be disappointed if he is in because that DOES mean that other stuff (Likely another character) wont be in because of it.

Sakurai wouldn't put in Waluigi.

PT is not only unique, but he's also the MAIN CHARACTER of the Pokemon games. (well, possibly more representing Red and Blue, but whatever.)

Seriously, what would Waliugi add to the Super Smash Brothers series?

The game needs refreshing new aspects; thats why I appreciate PT.

Waliugi bores me to be honest.

actually, waluigi would add freshness to the game considering a possible moveset based on his "dark thorns" from mario strikers charged, he could use the whip and have all sorts of moves, his throw could be thorns growing out of the floor and grabbing the opponent, i mean come on think about it, he may be worthwhile

I've never played that, but you can't deny he's getting bigger and bigger roles. Luigi began as a pallet swap of Mario anyway.

I'm almost sure we'll see him in Brawl with a good moveset too.
