Waluigi made his debut in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis|Nintendo 64}}'' and has become a recurring character in later ''Mario'' spin-off games. He is a lanky man with a big, pink nose, a pointed mustache, pointed ears, and eyes surrounded by light blue rings. He wears dark indigo overalls, a purple undershirt, a purple cap with a yellow "Γ" gamma symbol, a pair of white gloves, and a pair of orange pointed shoes. In the ''Mario'' spin-off games, Waluigi is shown to have powerful legs, able to easily kick Bowser. | Waluigi made his debut in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis|Nintendo 64}}'' and has become a recurring character in later ''Mario'' spin-off games.

Waluigi is [[Luigi]]'s self-appointed rival and dark counterpart, just as [[Wario]] is the rival of [[Mario]]. This rivalry began in the opening cutscene of ''Mario Tennis'' where Waluigi and Wario interrupt the final match between Mario and Luigi stating they want to play, but Luigi declines and mocks Waluigi, upsetting him. Waluigi is typically shown to be a spiteful, vindictive cheater; motivated by grudges and taking losses poorly while blaming others for his failures. On some occasions, Waluigi is shown in a raunchy, flirtatious light, examples including his frequent display of roses, a universal symbol for romance, as well as his signature crotch chop in the ''Mario Strikers'' series. Like most ''Mario'' villains including Wario, Waluigi will sometimes join the side of good against greater threats, particularly in the ''Mario Party'' series. Oddly, despite appearing frequently as Wario's partner-in-crime in various ''Mario'' spin-off games, he has not physically appeared in a {{uv|Wario}} game. Currently, his only appearance in a ''Wario'' game is if a Waluigi [[amiibo]] is scanned in {{s|mariowiki|Wario's amiibo Sketch}} in ''{{s|mariowiki|WarioWare Gold}}'', in which Wario draws a poor quality picture of him. Waluigi's relationship with Wario is the source of much speculation and debate, with many wondering whether they are brothers, cousins, or as stated by Waluigi's | Waluigi is [[Luigi]]'s self-appointed rival and dark counterpart, just as [[Wario]] is the rival of [[Mario]].

Waluigi very rarely plays a significant role in games' plots, and is typically equivalent to a cosmetic in games where he is playable. In games where Waluigi is given distinctive functional characteristics, he is usually a technical character who is meant to be played with immense precision and attention to defense, and uses Bob-Ombs. Waluigi's most major plot roles are ''{{iw|mariowiki|Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix}}'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis Aces}}'', where he causes the inciting incidents - the theft and subsequent loss of the Music Keys and the release of the evil tennis racket Lucien respecitvely - though both games end with battles against [[Bowser]], with ''Mario Mix'' having Waluigi be thwarted the first world in before a scavenger hunt for the other Keys, while ''Tennis Aces'' has Waluigi be possessed by Lucien for most of the story runtime. Waluigi has never headlined a game release on Nintendo hardware, but has headlined multiple promotional internet games, most of which are simple generic games, typically based on a template used for other ''Mario'' chracters (such as coloring and jigsaw puzzles), with a notable and infamous exception being the highly-sought-after lost browser game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Waluigi's Foot Fault}}'', in which players clip and collect Waluigi's toenails, released in 2000 to mark the character's debut. | Waluigi very rarely plays a significant role in games' plots, and is typically equivalent to a cosmetic in games where he is playable.
