<p>It’s no secret there’s a portion of Nintendo fans who absolutely adore Waluigi. We’ve seen petitions for the purple Mario character to be included as a playable fighter in <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/super_smash_bros_ultimate">Super Smash Bros. Ultimate</a></strong> and the Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aimé has even gone on <a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/06/sakurai_is_well_aware_that_you_want_waluigi_in_smash_bros_ultimate_says_reggie">record</a> saying how the series’ creator Masahiro Sakurai is well-aware players want to play as the mischievous character.</p>
<p>If you needed some more evidence to prove just how popular this character is, the <a class="external" href="https://play.nintendo.com/">official Play Nintendo website</a> recently ran a poll to find out which character fans would love to give a Valentine to on Valentine’s Day. Despite characters such as Isabelle from <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/animal_crossing">Animal Crossing</a></strong>, Pikachu from <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/pokemon_lets_go_pikachu_and_lets_go_eevee">Pokémon</a></strong> and Princess Peach from the Mario series being on the list, Waluigi won in a landslide victory. Below is an image of the poll, courtesy of NintendoSoup:</p>

<p>As can be seen, Waluigi absolutely smashed the competition, with a whopping 2197 votes. That’s ten times the amount of votes Isabelle received in second place. Mario had just 15 votes and Jibanyan from the <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/3ds/yo-kai_watch">Yo-Kai Watch</a></strong> series wasn’t much better with 20 votes. Wario only had 30 and Luigi received a total of 27 votes.</p>
