It sounds like I may be alone on this, but I think Waluigi is horribly lame.
It sounds like I may be alone on this, but I think Waluigi is horribly lame.I mean, I understand Wario. Mario needed an antagonist. His name was even clever.But Waluigi? Never mind the fact that he's a doppleganger of a lesser character (making him even worse) but his name isn't remotely witty.I understand that warui means evil (more or less), and that it's SUPPOSED to be a hybrid of that and the name, but that only really worked with Wario. He even gets extra points for the inverted first letter.But Waluigi? Way to take a gimmick WAY too far.
