In this game, his origins are revealed: He is second cousins to Wario, and like Wario in the game, is stated as having been associated with the Bros. well before his appearance as a "Wa". In truth, he is revealed to have been the then-commander of King Ōsama's forces in Subcon, and that while he appeared benevolent to the heroes and the king, he was in truth a spy for King Wart, seeking to be granted a higher position when Wart took over the kingdom and put down Ōsama. Although during these days he dyed his hair blond, in the modern times he has stopped doing this. The game also reveals that Waluigi's rivalry with Luigi began when Luigi alone was brought to Subcon to stop Wart once again, during which he discovered and publicly revealed the Commander (known as "Commander Wa") to be working for Wart, getting him thrown out of his home kingdom and, like his cousin Wario before him, ended up going insane.

He will then chuck the Bob-Omb at a Bro. If you jump at the right time, you can avoid the explosion.
Wario and Waluigi's duel attack is like Swing Bros from Superstar Saga. Wario will pick up Waluigi, spin him around, then throw him at a Bro. The key is which direction he spins. If he spins clockwise, he will hit Mario. If he is spinning counter-clockwise, he will hit Luigi.

During Chapter 11, Waluigi is now a string puppet because he failed an unknown mission by Puppetmaster, and managed to take out nearly everyone and turn them to mindless puppets. At the end, though, when facing Luigi, is knocked into a crusher in the Puppet Factory and is smashed to the fatality. After his unexpected death, he wasn't seen for the remainder of the game.
Super Mario Bros.: Plumbers Unite
In this Wii U and 3DS title, it is revealed that Waluigi had met Wario (and discovered that they were long-separated brothers) sometime during the events of the Wario Land series, as shown by the fact that the two live in the same treasure-filled castle in the Mushroom Kingdom. At the beginning of the game, Waluigi is lounging alongside Wario in their castle, before they are both arrested and charged with the robbery of the royal treasury, even though neither of them were responsible. Later on, they, alongside the Mario Bros., are tasked with recovering the stolen treasure. After the four split up, Waluigi heads to Mechanical Mayhem, where he is later found by Mario, Luigi, and Wario, who have all teamed up to reclaim the money and stop Bowser. Waluigi reluctantly agrees to help, and joins their party, ultimately defeating Bowser, saving the treasure, saving Peach, and even overcoming his differences with his comrades. As a reward, he and Wario are given a portion of the castle's treasury. Both Waluigi's jump height and power are second-best in class, and his defense is tied with Mario's. However, he also can run much faster than the other three plumbers, alongside other abilities.
