You want me to be truthful
Both Waluigi and Daisy are irrelevant.
No.
Waluigi was created specifically to be a tennis partner for Wario and was considered a hated character for a while until he took on his own personality in later games
Daisy was a Peach clone/replacement in Super Mario Land was ONLY brought back to be Peach's Tennis partner. Her personality was really dull and uninspiring until Double Dash gave her a tomboyish style and the Strikers games went on that and expanded on it.
Luigi was purely created to be Mario's number 2, and Wario was created to be a bad Mario.
Heck, Jumpman and DK were made to replace Popeye characters.
Both you wanna know why they were never considered and probably won't and it's really quite simple:
No main game appearances or a game of their own where Sakurai and his team can take inspiration from.
This does not matter.
Just because the sports games aren't main games or games of their own doesn't mean they don't have created potential for fighters.
Same with main games, they don't guarantee a good moveset potential. (See Toad, he appears in a lot of main games, but has yet to develop his own potential outside of becoming a Captain)
represents all of Galaxy and her moveset shows it, plus she's been in 3 straight main games and being playable in one.
has been in 3 main games and his clown car playstyle ripped from the NSMB series, Mario World and Sunshine
False, there was no Clown Car in Sunshine.
You can make excuses like them repping the sports titles (
does that already considering her F-Smash has the Golf club and Tennis racket) or having them rep the other Mario spinoffs which doesn't alot to work with for a fighter like Party and Kart.
Oooooor you take the niche of their special moves (Daisy has flowers and Waluigi has whacky machines) and create a moveset of them.
Arguing over who is more relevant is hilarious considering they are both in the same regard, difference is that one is in Mario Maker and the other is in Mario Kart 7
and they are both in over 40 games. They both are irrelevant and still doesn't hold any candle like most characters. Toad and Paper Mario have a leg to stand on compared to those two.
Call me when they actually put Waluigi in one of Wario's games and Daisy breaks out for her own playable cameo that isn't a spinoff or sports game
