Good ...haha, Mop loves Birdo... no surprise there.<br /><br />Good read, Mop.<br /><br />Personally, Luigi has always been my favorite character from the Mario universe. Even back in the NES days I would offer to be 2nd player just so I could use Luigi!<br /><br />I am absolutely hoping we someday see a Luigi's Mansion 2 or a Luigi's Castle or Luigi's old creepy Hotel or whatever!NinSagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401288961297200305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7756333000723546217.post-46733107197239783052011-04-16T17:12:21.781-04:002011-04-16T17:12:21.781-04:00What about Bowser?

Okay, he's a commonly used Mario character, but we've never really had a game where he was the sole playable character and where Mario didn't have a major role. Compare this to Luigi (two games), Peach (one game), Wario (many games) and Toad (perhaps Wario's Woods), and it seems a bit annoying.<br /><br />Waluigi's reason for not being playable however might just come down to this awkard scenario:<br /><br />1. For Waluigi to get his own game, he needs a personality deeper than 'evil Luigi counterpart'.<br /><br />2. For Waluigi to have personality, he needs to have an important role in a game which gives him some sort of character depth and a 'world'/'series'. <br /><br />Maybe Nintendo doesn't use him outside spinoffs because they think it'd take too much effort to give him any real character/personality? Alternatively, maybe neither the Wario Land or WarioWare makers care for spinoff game characters.CM30http://nintendo3dscommunity.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7756333000723546217.post-24940551032993717812011-04-15T20:17:41.854-04:002011-04-15T20:17:41.854-04:00It wasn't really surprising that the subject o...It wasn't really surprising that the subject of your first post is Mario characters.<br /><br />On to Luigi.I always liked Luigi more that Mario. He was the underdog and he had an interesting personality. He was more interesting than Mario. His stand out games I would say are The Mario and Luigi series and Luigi's Mansion.While he is more reconizable and popular than he was I think he has a little more to go to step completely out of Mario's shadow.<br /><br />As for Birdo and Waluigi I don't think a game based around them and only them would work. I do agree that a co-op game like you said would work.Maxinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7756333000723546217.post-56969036067237687842011-04-14T20:12:37.097-04:002011-04-14T20:12:37.097-04:00Well I am not surprised to see your first blog pos...Well I am not surprised to see your first blog post about the Mario series.<br /><br />As for the main content of the post here are my thoughts.<br /><br />I always liked Luigi more than Mario. I think that as you stated Luigi was an underdog. He really didn't have much over Mario.That changed in Super Mario Bros 2(US version). He and Princess Toadstool was my most used characters because they both stood out. Even Toad had something over Mario. Toad could pick up items quicker than anybody. Mario was average.Through the years Luigi got more personality from many sources and games. Most notably the Super mario Bros Super Show and The Mario and Luigi series. While I think that Luigi has grown more into the spotlight he still is behind Mario by a small amount. <br /><br />As for Birdo and Waluigi I personally don't think that they have the presence to step out and do a game on their own.I agree that a co-op game would work well though.Maxinoreply@blogger.com
