The Mario Strikers license is one of Nintendo’s most legendary. The Mario-style football game, that is to say much more epic, introduced a fairly offensive gameplay where to win, it is necessary to tackle and jostle your opponents. A way of playing that seems to be perfect for certain characters from the universe of our favorite plumber like Wario or… Waluigi. The celebration of the latter within the game has even become a real phenomenon, explained today!
A celebration turned meme
In the first two games (Mario Strikers Charged, 2007, and Super Mario Strikers, 2005), when Waluigi scores a goal, he performs a celebration which, by its originality, went around the internet.
The fact that this celebration was borderline correct caused a stir and later became emblematic of the character. Asked by GameXplainMike Inglehart, one of the creators of the game explained where this idea came from.
Mario Strikers back soon
It is important to remember that next summer, June 10 to be exact, will release Mario Strikers: Battle League. Fifteen years after the last opus of the license, it will be an explosive return for Nintendo because the community will undoubtedly be there!
On the program, explosive matches and a maximum ofHyper-Strikesthese powerful shots that trigger the mythical animations of the game. We do not yet know if the famous celebration of Waluigi will be present in the new opus of Mario Strikers but one thing is certain, the game will offer an online mode of course with a ranking and clubs. Epic matches are coming!
