Super Smash Bros. Brawl has an impressively deep roster of characters, yet there are still quite a few first-party characters who are missing. More than three years after its release on Wii, modders are still hard at work on bringing new content to the game, with one recent noteworthy addition being a playable version of Waluigi.
Although he hasn’t been around for as long as his bad-Mario counterpart Wario, Waluigi has been in a number of games since his Mario Tennis debut in 2000. He’s playable in Mario Party 8 and Mario Kart Wii (where he’s my go-to character), but he’s not playable in Brawl — though he does make an appearance. A group of modders took it upon themselves to change that, and they seem to have done an excellent job.
The video above demonstrates a variety of his moves, shows how Kirby can copy him to don the Waluigi hat, and features a fight against Pikachu. As you might guess based upon his placement on the character selection screen or his name on the HUD at one point, he replaces Pit. An alternate version can instead replace King Dedede.
