* AdaptationalExplanation: Chapter 39 clarifies why ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} was at [[Recap/SMG4TheMarioConvention "The Mario Convention!"]]... before getting turned into a T-Pose Zombie.

** ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} makes more appearances in the story to better justify his [[TheCameo cameo]] in [[Recap/SMG4MarioTheScamArtist "Mario The Scam Artist"]]. Likewise, ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, a character that was a T-Pose Zombie in the original, was seen at [[Recap/SMG4TheMarioConvention the convention]] here before the fact.

** In his search for Waluigi, Wario finds a giant USB. And not just any USB; one of the Guardian Pods the [=SMGs=] use, which would become important in the [[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64BloopersGenesisArc Genesis Arc]] much later.

** ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} makes more appearances in the story to better justify his [[TheCameo cameo]] in [[Recap/SMG4MarioTheScamArtist "Mario The Scam Artist"]].

** Axol, a character who wasn't properly introduced in the [=SMG4=] universe yet, makes a cameo in Chapter 38.

* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Whereas [=SMG3=] appeared near the end of the original Waluigi Arc, here he makes his debut in Chapter 17, which takes place during the events of [[Recap/SMG4WaluigisTime "Waluigi's Time"]].

** Wario gets more screen time in his search for Waluigi than in the original.

** Wario gets more screen time in his search for Waluigi.

* AdaptationalSympathy: Not by ''much'', mind you, since Bob still left Mario and Luigi to die, but while he’s escaping the T-Pose Zombies in Chapter 4, he’s secretly regretful for not doing more to help them.

** Chapter 26 shows Bob buying the carnival before properly being seen in it during [[Recap/SMG4TheMarioCarnival "The Mario Carnival"]].

** New additions include several scenes of Waluigi spying on the [=SMG4=] Crew in their current escapades in scenes where he wasn't originally there.

** The first scam from [[Recap/SMG4MarioTheScamArtist "Mario The Scam Artist"]], where Mario disguises himself as Miku to make Fishy Boopkins think Wario brought her to life, is briefly described as a past event in Chapter 31. The second and third scams fare better, but some dialogue is still missing.

The second scam, involving making Koopa's wheelchair "disappear", fares better, but some dialogue is still missing.

* {{Jerkass}}: Bob, as always. In Chapter 25, takes advantage of the slight vacuum from Waluigi going rogue and Wario's scams losing traction... by passing off as a "wallet inspector" and stealing peoples' money. This behavior continues in Chapter 26.

** One of the scams from [[Recap/SMG4MarioTheScamArtist "Mario The Scam Artist"]] is briefly described as a past event in Chapter 31. Specifically, it's the one where Mario disguises himself as Miku to make Fishy Boopkins think Wario brought her to life. The second scam, involving making Koopa's wheelchair "disappear", fares better, but some dialogue is still missing.

* AdaptationDeviation: Right off the bat, the story begins with a change to the source material, as Waluigi leaves the T-Pose Mushroom for Shroomy to eat, instead of giving it to him personally like he did in [[Recap/SMG4MarioAndTheTPoseVirus "Mario And The T-Pose Virus"]]. As a result of this, Shroomy admitting to his contribution to the problem at the episode’s conclusion goes unused in Chapter 6, meaning the [=SMG4=] gang don’t know Waluigi’s behind the T-Pose virus yet. Waluigi would eventually explain this to Mario (and only Mario), but that's nine chapters later.

** We get to see Waluigi turning more people into T-Pose Zombies, most notably making Francis the new PatientZero in Chapter 29.
