Project WALUIGI - v0.04 - New Version In The Works

[Oni K4ge]

So, was the "Laugh it Off" moved to shield button?

 

[Overdrive64]

I think laugh it off is going to be a counter move

 

[TCRhade]

@Xaranid: Do we really need another Tornado user?

@Dry: His AT model.

@Chibo: All right, great job! So what about footstooling/landing lag?

 

[DryBowserFan]

Agreed, can't wait for a no game Crashing Waluigi, soon the Mario Bros. vs. Waio Bros. dispute will be complete I'm hoping.

@TCR: Oh, lol, I love his AT model!

 

[XypherMaverix]

I think Laugh it Off will become a regular taunt with the same effects to counteract the whole luigi taunt kick.

Ok good to hear. I'm for the taunt. Good idea.

 

[TCRhade]

Yes! The taunt to counteract Luigi's is an awesome, Waluigi-like idea!

 

[TommoPuppy]

But a bit overpowered, don'tcha think? It's like when you're playing as Olimar and do the super armor glitch to avoid high knockback attacks. It'd definitely piss people off.

 

[DryBowserFan]

I think all characters have a Super Armor glitch, not sure, but I know Ike does when using his Up B move, same with Charizard.

 

[TommoPuppy]

Nah I'm pretty sure it's only certain characters. I didn't know Charizard had one. o.o

 

[TCRhade]

Yep. Try it yourself with Smart Bombs in Training Mode.

 

[ThatGuyYouMightKnow]

Super armor isn't a glitch.
lol.

 

[TCRhade]

Super armor isn't a glitch.
lol.

It's done on purpose, yes, but he didn't know about the super armor on Charizard's Up B.

 

[DryBowserFan]

Super armor isn't a glitch.
lol.

Oh, lol, I didn't know I always thought it was, my bad.

Neither did I until I relooked at Ike's Super Armor, there's a vid that shows Charizard having super armor against Marth's final Smash, I think one with DK too, but it was a standard B attack, might not really count against more powerful attacks. Ganon has Super Armor too I just learned, with his side be when grabbing someone, and apparently some characters have Ultra Armor, like Pikachu and Jigglypuff, but those require precise timing.

And there's Giga Bowser who ALWAYS (unfortunately) has it. Waluigi for a mere taunt is not what I'd consider broken.

 

[DryBowserFan]

Oh lol you have quite the point there, Giga Bowser (Unless the Killable Giga Bowser files' added.) ALWAYS has Super Armor, Waluigi's taunt having Super Armor would make good for Luigi's surprise attack Taunt like you mentioned.

 

[xxTerminatorxx]

Bump for great justice because well... Waluigi can now grab

Finally Walugi can grab. Eiether a Taunt or Special Counter Move would be good for "Laugh It Off."

Anyways, are you guys considering giving Walugi a Tornato or a Bomb-Omb (Link's Bomb) for his Down B attack? As I can think of, it's not Waluigi without bombs/explosives. Still tornato is a good idea. That's just my opinion.

Bombs are cool. They suit his cheater style and he's been seen using 'em.

But that would make 4 characters (if you count the Doc PSA/Mario's DAir) to have a tornado.
Waluigi would be better if he wasn't a clone.

EDIT: Oh TOMATO, not tornado. Sorry I misread.

 

[CT Chia]

Not just any bomb, I'm talkin a Waluigi Bomb!

 

[GwJ]

The Waluigi bombs from DDR:Mario Mix

 

[Overdrive64]

Idea for a final smash:

Whacks a super powerful tennis ball straight forward, then it takes a turn at a right angle up if on the ground or down if used in the air. A trail of light appears after the ball's trail, so that when the attack is over a large illuminated L or even better a backwards L is left on the field for a short period. Waluigi may move after serving while the move is taking place. If an opponent is hit with the ball it is as powerful as Marth's final smash, we're talking power! If a player is knocked into the L, it is much less powerful but still dangerous. Waluigi is not hurt by it. ROB's lazer could be used if you widen and recolor it. This move is inspired by Super Sluggers by the way ^^

A looong while back the new build was going to have a tornado Bair.

I'm curious to see if it still will. At least call it something else...

 

[CT Chia]

The tornado bairs been done for a while lol. its a tad sloppy though since there isnt a good startup anim for it

When do you estimate the next beta will be released, Chibo?

 

[Exodecai101]

Whirluigi! Is he going to be magically swimming through the air somehow? I feel that could be a good B-> attack, he swims toward you with a stream of water around him (Squirtle's waterfall attack could be good to use for that). Is that possible to do?

 

[XypherMaverix]

Is there any way to rip skeletons from mario tennis (wii) for a Waluigi Tornado? It raises a wacky tornado move initiative. By holding his hind leg behind him and leaning back with a tornado effect surrounding the whole of the body rather than just the arms or legs.

Like from Mario Power Tennis? He does an in air breaststroke to get the ball when it's about out of normal catching reach. That would be a pretty interesting, hopefully funny/comical attack of his.

 

[TCRhade]

I hope he gets that swimming attack too. It's become one of his signature abilities. :D

 

[Mic_128]

Waluigi would be better if he wasn't a clone.

Well that's what he is after all, a clone squared.

 

[TCRhade]

Just because he's to Luigi what Wario is to Mario doesn't mean he has to be a clone.

After all, Wario isn't a clone.

 

[Mic_128]

I was refering to him as a character, not his moveset

As much as I dislike him, he's ashamedly great fun to play v.v

 

[TCRhade]

Yeah, he gets lots of unfair bashing because of that.

As a fan of Waluigi, I wholeheartedly agree that he's fun. Only problem is that stinkin' freezing glitch.

 

[DryBowserFan]

It's a Shameful truth Waluigi was only created for that purpose and not given a serious background but the fun use of him eases the pain so to speak. I agree TCR, once Waluigi doesn't cause the game to freeze 100% things will be so much better.

Agreement. I just wish there was a new pic to prove that Waluigi can now grab.

 

[xxTerminatorxx]

Not just any bomb, I'm talkin a Waluigi Bomb!

That's right, it's not much of a challange to texture Link's bomb to a bomb-omb (or, you could replace it with a REAL Bomb-Omb but keep the rest of the animation.) and change the actual power of it. Yes, that's right, we now got our super WALUGI BOMB from the trademark series he's starred in.
---------------------
I just think it's so strange Waluigi wasn't added in the first place. He would of been so epic, although we will probably make him better. In all of those games he was in he was playable, but just not this one. I mean, some Assist Trophies had reasons to be what they are due to them never being playable, such as Gray Fox from Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes although many Metal Gear fans would LOVE for him to be playable such as me.

But that's just Nintendo - they only want video game all-stars in the Smash Bros. Series.. They just forgot Waluigi.

 

[TommoPuppy]

Yeah I'm still sore that they didn't make Lyn playable. I was really hoping to see her.

 

[xxTerminatorxx]

We arn't the only one's working on Waluigi, or any other Assist Trophies, people are currently working on Shadow, Fox, and Lyn as you said.

Once we are able to create custom character spaces, possibly we could make all of the reasonable Assist Trophies all characters without even using one Alloy space.

Until then, we need to thank Nintendo for adding the Alloys in the first place.

Edit: Before Brawl was released, I was waiting for Gray Fox (Or what Naomi calls him, "Frankie.") or Raiden to be playable. I would love to see a battle of Snake and Gray Fox VS Mario and Luigi, as much as everyone wants Waluigi and Wario VS Mario And Luigi. Nintendo didn't want to seem to listin to anyone on Character ideas. But what makes this entire Character-Creating fun is that Nintendo simply didn't listin.

 

[InTrepidCognito]

Unfortunately, however, some dumbs may complain that Kid Icarus or Metroid only have one rep while a non-Nintendo franchise has two... I was sure to see at least someone from the Sonic franchise, but instead we're teased by three perfectly good models in the background of a stage.

 

[TCRhade]

This thread is so flippin' lonely...

It's been a while since we had a beta...
