Sometimes I think that Nintendo always makes the lamest guys recurring or prominent (like always seeing Waluigi, Beedle, and Bandana Dee time after time instead of actually cool Geno, Skull Kid, and Marx).

But then I realize that most long-running franchises in general just suck at making the main stuff more interesting than the side stuff.

Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario : Waluigi is a spin-off character in more ways than one (as in, spun off of Wario and Luigi just to complete a quartet), and Beedle is just a random-ass shopkeeper.

Putting any of the three "actually cool" characters I mentioned in Smash is jumping the gun for sure, but that's just a symptom of a greater problem.

Well, I personally find random-ass shopkeepers cool, and don't see much interest in moody emo jesters/puppets/scarecrows - it's all a matter of perspective, not every gamer wants to control or fight the coolest character in the room, some people just want to play as a bumbling 70s Saturday morning villain or fight against a big tree with an O-face - especially if you're a fan of Nintendo, which is generally known and celebrated for having unconventional character designs and not typically abiding by general gaming culture's preferance for testostorone.

Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario Wario : You've just made me interested in a game centered on some kind of "Forrest Gump" nobody who keeps meeting other "legendary heroes" throughout the game but is themself forgotten by history despite being helpful to them.
