It used to be a game for Nintendo fans to play Nintendo characters. Things started to unravel in Brawl by allowing Snake and Sonic. Though I guess Sonic was pretty cool and he has been in Nintendo games (Mario Sonic Olympics). But now it's a mess.

Theres literally almost no other significant Nintendo characters left who really deserve to be playable in Smash. As you can see with people wanting Geno or Ashley, we were starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Is that a problem? It really sounds like a decent reason to include him. It's not like we're talking about making the trollface a character. Waluigi is an existing character that is popular, and your only argument is that he's popular for a reason you don't like?

My point was that "meme character" isn't exactly a sign that they're out of the question. And honestly, Waluigi's not even close to as dumb an addition as Dark Samus either.

Dark Samus was a great idea until they literally made it a Samus palette swap.

No, Dark ___ isn't a great idea

If we were talking a palette swap, you'd be right. But Dark Samus reps the Prime series and, done right, would have a completely different moveset.

Waluigi is more than a meme. He's genuinely popular and likeable. My daughter doesn't know anything about gaming memes but she was certainly sad when she asked if she could be Waluigi in Smash and I had to tell her he's not in it. I doubt she's the only little kid that loves Waluigi.

Waluigi has also been in the game since Brawl as an assist trophy. It's not ideal, but it's still a pretty good way to represent him. They just weren't interested in making Waluigi a playable character. Not everyone can be one and I'm sure they came up plenty of reasons why or why not a certain character just wouldn't work.

Now what I wouldn't mind seeing is a Smash spin-off filled entirely with Mario characters. There are clearly enough to make a large, unique roster.

An echo

But having a different moveset wouldn't have made it less of a lazy addition. We need less literal clones of the same character and more all stars

Well that's what DS is. It's not one of those "I looked in a mirror and it came out" deals. DS is a monster from somewhere in outerspace that took on Samus' appearance when it stole one of her suit upgrades, after trashing the planet where she grew up, killing the Chozo and infecting lots of planets in the system. It's the primary enemy of the prime trilogy and has a completely different set of abilities focusing on spread shots, intangibility, flight and self-replication. Despite looking like Samus, they really have nothing in common.

Honestly they're reaching the bottom of the barrel when it comes to first-party additions, so making Smash a bigger impact with third-parties seems like a better conclusion.

I do still want Elma or Cross though. A Xenoblade X rep is literally all I want for first-party reps.

Actually this made me realize that the character that got screwed over the most is E. Gadd. He's probably the only important human Mario character that isn't in the game in any form, unless he got a spirit. Waluigi at least is an assist trophy and Pauline is in New Donk City.

E. Gadd for Smash.
