->"Waluigi has been rejected from games for far too long..."
-->--Official description
The story that changed [=SMG4=] forever.
The Waluigi Arc refers to the first official ''[[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers SMG4]]'' StoryArc. While not the first "blooper" story to be released in two or three-parts, the "Waluigi" arc spanned multiple videos on the [=SMG4=] channel. It was the first arc of Season 8 in 2018, and was succeeded by [[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64BloopersTheRapperBobArc The Rapper Bob Arc]].
The story begins with Waluigi obtaining his secret power developed from being rejected from being a fully-playable character in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. With his new powers, he decides to wreak havoc on the Mushroom Kingdom for a lifetime of rejection, becoming a major villain in the process.

!!The Arc provides examples of:
* ArcVillain: Waluigi, who discovers the Power of Rejection and uses it to terrorize the Mushroom Kingdom, later deciding to host his own Smash Bros as revenge.
* BigBrotherInstinct: This arc brings out the best in [=SMG4=]!Mario in this regard, where he shows concern when something bad happens to Luigi on at least three separate occasions ("Mario and the T-Pose Virus", "Mario SAW", and "The Mario Convention").
* BigDamnHeroes: Tari uses her gaming skills to destroy Waluigi's staff, which is followed by Wario taking him to [=SMG3=] in order to be talked down.
* BookEnds: The arc begins when Master Hand accepts Waluigi, only for him to lose his new form and being rejected ''again'', causing him to turn to villainy. At the end of the arc, Wario accepts him for real, ending the arc.
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Waluigi's Time" serves as this for Waluigi, which explains his discovery of the [[EmotionBomb Power of]] [[ThePowerOfHate Rejection]], [[ProtagonistJourneyToVillain and becoming the]] ArcVillain.
* EnemyMine:
** Saiko teams up with [=SMG4=] and Mario due to the threat of the T-Pose zombies in "Mario and the Waluigi Apocalypse". Specifically, there's no point in having fans if they're all brainwashed.
** [=SMG3=] joins forces with the heroes to stop Waluigi, believing himself to be the only villain. Later becomes a temporary HeelFaceTurn as he gets a new show and retires from villainy until "A Day In the Life Of Everyone", when his show is cancelled, and later events would lead him to become the villain all over again.
* FaceHeelTurn: Waluigi snaps from being denied entry into ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a fighter in ''Waluigi's Time'' (where he was the "face" during the video) and establishes himself as an antagonist in the videos following after. [[HeelFaceTurn He only goes back to being his normal self after Wario apologizes for mistreating him]].
* {{Filler}}:
** The only arc-relevant thing that happens in "The Mario Café" is that everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom hates Waluigi--[[ZeroApprovalGambit which is all a part of his plan]].
** In the actual arc, "The Mario Carnival" is pretty irrelevant; all that really happens that was relevant to the arc is the reveal of Tari's [[ChekhovsGun cybernetic arm]], the beginning of Meggy and Tari's friendship, and that Wario has gone missing (later revealed to be him setting out to find his brother).
* FromNobodyToNightmare: For many years of [=SMG4=]'s canon, Waluigi was just your average guy that got into schemes with Wario. Then "Mario and the T-Pose Virus" happens, and he launches a plan that turns him into one of the series' most dangerous villains.
* GainaxEnding: In a way. After Tari gets [=SMG4=] to destroy Waluigi's staff, Waluigi then forces the main cast into one last rap song... which is interrupted by Wario [[BigDamnHeroes coming back]] and saying he's sorry, which stuns ''[[StunnedSilence everyone]].'' Wario then take Waluigi to [=SMG3=], whose in fact a therapist, to solve their problems. It ends with Wario and Waluigi crying and embracing each other as everyone else cheers. [[LampshadeHanging Bob's the only one to note this]].
-->'''Bob:''' [[FlatWhat What?]] [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are you serious?]] [[BreakingTheFourthWall Is this how we're ending the arc?]]
* HeroicSacrifice: Luigi in "Mario SAW" and Meggy in "The Mario Convention", both for Mario from Waluigi. Luigi to save Mario from lava (which was actually [[LavaIsBoilingKoolAid warm Kool-Aid]]), Meggy to save him from a T-Pose bomb Waluigi was about to unleash.
* InMediasRes: "Mario The Scam Artist" happens in between Mario SAW and The Mario Carnival, but aired after both of them.
* KarmaHoudini: Yes, Waluigi has been depowered and redeemed, but he still caused a lot of destruction in the Waluigi Arc. You would think that he should be held accountable for his actions. Said destruction is also hilariously glossed over, although you know [=SMG4=].
* LaughablyEvil: Even after becoming a legitimate threat after unlocking the Power of Rejection, Waluigi's still shown to have retained his goofy side in ''Mario SAW''. There's also something silly about his rap battle in ''War of the Fat Italians 2018'', and the challenges he makes Mario and [=SMG4=] do.
* LavaIsBoilingKoolAid: Played quite literally when Luigi sacrifices himself for Mario in ''Mario Saw'' only to quickly realize that he had fallen in warm Kool-Aid.

->"Waluigi has been rejected from games for far too long..."
-->--Official description
The story that changed [=SMG4=] forever.
The Waluigi Arc refers to the first official ''[[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers SMG4]]'' StoryArc. While not the first "blooper" story to be released in two or three-parts, the "Waluigi" arc spanned multiple videos on the [=SMG4=] channel. It was the first arc of Season 8 in 2018, and was succeeded by [[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64BloopersTheRapperBobArc The Rapper Bob Arc]].
The story begins with Waluigi obtaining his secret power developed from being rejected from being a fully-playable character in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. With his new powers, he decides to wreak havoc on the Mushroom Kingdom for a lifetime of rejection, becoming a major villain in the process.

!!The Arc provides examples of:
* ArcVillain: Waluigi, who discovers the Power of Rejection and uses it to terrorize the Mushroom Kingdom, later deciding to host his own Smash Bros as revenge.
* BigBrotherInstinct: This arc brings out the best in [=SMG4=]!Mario in this regard, where he shows concern when something bad happens to Luigi on at least three separate occasions ("Mario and the T-Pose Virus", "Mario SAW", and "The Mario Convention").
* BigDamnHeroes: Tari uses her gaming skills to destroy Waluigi's staff, which is followed by Wario taking him to [=SMG3=] in order to be talked down.
* BookEnds: The arc begins when Master Hand accepts Waluigi, only for him to lose his new form and being rejected ''again'', causing him to turn to villainy. At the end of the arc, Wario accepts him for real, ending the arc.
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Waluigi's Time" serves as this for Waluigi, which explains his discovery of the [[EmotionBomb Power of]] [[ThePowerOfHate Rejection]], [[ProtagonistJourneyToVillain and becoming the]] ArcVillain.
* EnemyMine:
** Saiko teams up with [=SMG4=] and Mario due to the threat of the T-Pose zombies in "Mario and the Waluigi Apocalypse". Specifically, there's no point in having fans if they're all brainwashed.
** [=SMG3=] joins forces with the heroes to stop Waluigi, believing himself to be the only villain. Later becomes a temporary HeelFaceTurn as he gets a new show and retires from villainy until "A Day In the Life Of Everyone", when his show is cancelled, and later events would lead him to become the villain all over again.
* FaceHeelTurn: Waluigi snaps from being denied entry into ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a fighter in ''Waluigi's Time'' (where he was the "face" during the video) and establishes himself as an antagonist in the videos following after. [[HeelFaceTurn He only goes back to being his normal self after Wario apologizes for mistreating him]].
* {{Filler}}:
** The only arc-relevant thing that happens in "The Mario Café" is that everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom hates Waluigi--[[ZeroApprovalGambit which is all a part of his plan]].
** In the actual arc, "The Mario Carnival" is pretty irrelevant; all that really happens that was relevant to the arc is the reveal of Tari's [[ChekhovsGun cybernetic arm]], the beginning of Meggy and Tari's friendship, and that Wario has gone missing (later revealed to be him setting out to find his brother).
* FromNobodyToNightmare: For many years of [=SMG4=]'s canon, Waluigi was just your average guy that got into schemes with Wario. Then "Mario and the T-Pose Virus" happens, and he launches a plan that turns him into one of the series' most dangerous villains.
* GainaxEnding: In a way. After Tari gets [=SMG4=] to destroy Waluigi's staff, Waluigi then forces the main cast into one last rap song... which is interrupted by Wario [[BigDamnHeroes coming back]] and saying he's sorry, which stuns ''[[StunnedSilence everyone]].'' Wario then take Waluigi to [=SMG3=], whose in fact a therapist, to solve their problems. It ends with Wario and Waluigi crying and embracing each other as everyone else cheers. [[LampshadeHanging Bob's the only one to note this]].
-->'''Bob:''' [[FlatWhat What?]] [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are you serious?]] [[BreakingTheFourthWall Is this how we're ending the arc?]]
* HeroicSacrifice: Luigi in "Mario SAW" and Meggy in "The Mario Convention", both for Mario from Waluigi. Luigi to save Mario from lava (which was actually [[LavaIsBoilingKoolAid warm Kool-Aid]]), Meggy to save him from a T-Pose bomb Waluigi was about to unleash.
* InMediasRes: "Mario The Scam Artist" happens in between Mario SAW and The Mario Carnival, but aired after both of them.
* KarmaHoudini: Yes, Waluigi has been depowered and redeemed, but he still caused a lot of destruction in the Waluigi Arc. You would think that he should be held accountable for his actions. Said destruction is also hilariously glossed over, although you know [=SMG4=].
* LaughablyEvil: Even after becoming a legitimate threat after unlocking the Power of Rejection, Waluigi's still shown to have retained his goofy side in ''Mario SAW''. There's also something silly about his rap battle in ''War of the Fat Italians 2018'', and the challenges he makes Mario and [=SMG4=] do.
* LavaIsBoilingKoolAid: Played quite literally when Luigi sacrifices himself for Mario in ''Mario Saw'' only to quickly realize that he had fallen in warm Kool-Aid.
* LogicalWeakness: The Power of Rejection draws from his feelings of being rejected many times, so if he feels any sort of acceptance--even if it's just by one single person--the power fades away. In the end, he's defeated when Wario apologizes and accepts his brother.
* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: While compared to later arcs, this one doesn't effect the world too much, the arc would be acknowledge from then on by the fact the Waluigi still has access to the Power of Rejection whenever he gets mad.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Waluigi starts out about as pathetic as any villain can be, but once he discovers the Power of Rejection, which grows the more people reject him, Waluigi carries out some truly dangerous schemes such as starting a ZombieApocalypse and putting the Mario Bros. through a gauntlet of {{Death Trap}}s, all so he can [[ZeroApprovalGambit grow stronger the more people will reject him for his actions]]. This ends up making him one of the most dangerous villains in the series.
* PatientZero: Both versions T-Pose has one; Shroomy the first time, Meggy the second, both turned thanks to Waluigi.
* ThePowerOfHate: Waluigi can call upon this to make others feel the pain of rejection he has suffered. His master plan is to have everyone in the Mushroom Kingdom hate and reject him so he can achieve his final form and take revenge upon everyone.

* UngratefulBastard: Waluigi definitely shows shades of this in his rejection-fueled rage.
** The first thing he does once he discovers his power is pass the pain of his rejection onto Mario and Luigi. This might not sound so bad, but they both showed sympathy for him in his lowest point.
