Waluigi's Smash Snub refers to the long-standing internet phenomenon and collective heartbreak over Waluigi's exclusion from the playable roster in the Super Smash Bros. series. Despite being a fan-favorite since the GameCube era, Waluigi has consistently been relegated to 'Assist Trophy' status, most notably in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This sparked a wave of memes depicting the purple anti-hero crying, looking through windows at the other fighters, or being violently rejected by Masahiro Sakurai. The meme represents feelings of being overlooked, undervalued, or the victim of a cruel cosmic joke, often punctuated by his signature 'WAH!' catchphrase.
