<P> Waluigi also receives negative reception . GameDaily listed him as one of the characters they wanted to kill but were not able to, describing him as "One of the most unimportant characters in video game history".

GamesRadar described Waluigi as a "lame - o villain" in an otherwise great game, referencing Mario Tennis .

He describes such an act as "plunging to the bottom of the intellectual barrel". He also calls Waluigi "disgustingly tall and thin" as opposed to Wario, who he calls a "fatass".

IGN's Joe Skrebels described his non-playable status within the game as "...a slap in the face for those who want a playable Waluigi ." </P> <P> Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils - Aimé has acknowledged the popularity of Waluigi and the desire to have him playable in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, citing that series director Masahiro Sakurai "...will be aware of the groundswell of support that appeared for Waluigi . And in the end it's his decision to make ." </P>
