* VitriolicBestBuds: Unlike Luigi's UndyingLoyalty to Mario, there's been a number of times where Waluigi either throws Wario under a bus or laughs at the big guy's misfortune, mostly in the FMV cutscenes of the sports games. They apparently even argue with each other during the ending of ''VideoGame/MarioParty3''. Even then, the two are pretty close.

** After Charles Martinet stopped recording new lines for the Nintendo characters he voices and retired from voicing them, Kevin Afghani succeeded him not only as the new voice of Mario and Luigi, but also with Wario. His take on Wario has a higher pitch and isn't as raspy.

* BadBoss: He fluctuates between this and a standard MeanBoss in the ''[=WarioWare=]'' titles, where he frequently mistreats his employees and acts like a jerk to them. At his absolute worst, he outright refuses to pay them, trying to run off with the money in the first game and causing several of his workers to leave for Diamond Software in ''D.I.Y.''.

* EvilCounterpart: To Luigi. Both of them feel like their stuck in the shadow of someone else -- Mario to Luigi, and just about everyone else to Waluigi. The difference is that Luigi can be a CowardlyLion when he needs to be, and still acts heroic in spite of worrying about his place in the world. Waluigi, meanwhile, feels like he has to take his problems out of everyone else. Also, while Luigi tends to be overlooked but still liked by the other characters, Waluigi is generally disliked and thus actively ''avoided'' by the cast.

* ArtisticAge: They look a ''lot'' older than the Mario Bros, who already look quite a bit older than their age of twenty-four, but they're said to be roughly the same age.
* AssholeVictim: Their jerkish personalities and malicious intent, such as cheating in sports, unwarrant any sympathy for the duo whenever they run into any bad luck or are on the receiving end of Bowser's fury, with their misfortunes being framed as something the audience is supposed to laugh at.
