Unless you've been living under a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate-shaped rock for the last few months, you'll no doubt be aware that fans really wanted luscious-haired super villain Waluigi in the game. Well, a new glitch has been found which can make this dream become painfully true and, with the help of the videos below, you too can have Waluigi become the star he was always destined to be.
It was only a few hours ago that we found ourselves reporting on a game-breaking glitch in which Isabelle and Villager can combine forces to literally shut everything down, confusing your poor Switch console into closing the game. Now, that pesky Isabelle's at it again, with a second glitch being the answer to those aforementioned Waluigi dreams.
As you can see in the video below, the trick here is to have two Isabelle fighters playing against one another. If both characters use their fishing rod to pull in an assist trophy at almost the same time, the faster Isabelle will infinitely spawn whichever trophy comes out. It's weird, it's amusing, and it's absolutely bonkers.
The glitch seems to have been originally spotted by YouTube user TheAfrowJow, who has shared the following video to explain exactly how it works (with added slow-mo for extra help).
So, Waluigi fans, are you happy now? Good luck getting to sleep tonight, everyone...

So now it kinda makes him a character right?
Thus is what happens when waluigi remains an assist trophy.
Waluigi's Revenge!
Sometimes I love glitches. Skyrim had hilarious ones..
Isabelle needs to be banned
This is what happend when you don't build a game from the ground...
Looks like Isabelle is more of a troll character then expected.
She's grown too powerful
She must be stopped
Isabelle breaks freaking reality! Thanos would be proud.
I knew it was a good choice to main Isabelle!!!
Can’t wait to make infinite Spring Mans (Spring Men?) and Arcade Bunnies!
Edit:
@IHateTombs Well, if the assist trophy spawns metroids, then the game is soft-locked. Otherwise, it looks fine.
This is awesome! Sakurai should have made the Waluigi trophy intentionally do this as a joke.
"You want Waluigi? I'll give you Waluigi!"
And Knuckles, and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles and Knuckles.
@TF-Warrior Exact same thought I had. 😂
Watching this gave me anxiety for some reason.
I want to try it with Rathalos, or the Moon. Definitely the moon.
Let the power of Wah compel you.
Im surprised the game didnt crash
Now I wanna buy this game
@bluemujika he does at 3:17 in the first video, it's not that impressive unfortunately
@IHateTombs If it is truly an infinite spawn, it will eventually cause a problem. Might not be a hard crash like the other one, though.
This is completely awesome .
That is FANTASTIC...
And Waluigi with a tennis racquet would be a great actual character.
@Cobalt Silly Cobalt, video games don't come from the ground. They fall from the sky!
Isabelle is beginning to cause trouble. Belmonts, Link, Zelda, you know what to do. Seal away that darkness.
@ReaderRagfish Thank the gods I wasn't the only one to think "that sounds like a summoning ritual all right" when I read just how the glitch can happen.
...There need to be a comic of this now.
And I thought it couldn't get any deeper than when two Captain Falcon's Falcon Punch at the same moment causing the universe to explode. This is truly some next level ish right here
This is what happens when Nintendo forgot to test play her before putting her in the final game. She was announce late for Smash Ultimate and Sakurai didn't have time to thoroughly test her with all the 74 other fighters before giving it the Smash seal of approval.
I'm actually surprised the game didn't crash with some of these.
This is soooo cool! Even more impressive that the game can keep up! But I fear it will be patched by the next upate. Could be as soon as next week.
Best glitch ever!
@MH4 okay, that infinity Gauntlet being on the wrong hand is REALLY staring to bother me now. :'D
@IHateTombs
No it doesnt
@SmaggTheSmug
Works with more than just Isabelle. This little kid got it working with Yoshi day 1 I got the game
Imagine Rathalos!!! That woukd be insane!
@DanteSolablood It’s bothering me too but it’s surprisingly hard to photoshop the infinity gauntlet onto Isabelle and make it look right, so I did the best I could! 😂
@Cobalt Except the fact this is built from the ground up...
Gotta try this before they patch it
I always knew Isabelle was more than she seemed. Something too smug, too accommodating, too "helpful" to just be the secretary. In retrospect she always knew too much. Had her thumb on too much of what was going on. Had too much control over events and occurrences. Too many "coincidences" occur near her.
Beware Isabelle. She is not what she appears...
@Cobalt You get a bug that wasn't in the earlier game? No, typically new bugs indicate new code, whereas reoccurring bugs indicate re-used code.
@Batty5
In case you don't know, they had to adapt the source code AND add new stuffs on it... The result brings inevitably bugs... :/
Imagining the chorus of Wahs makes me smile.
@Cobalt Welcome to game development. Stuff like this is perfectly normal. Nothing to get fussy over.
Pure nightmare fuel
@Cobalt simple. patch it up and it's all good to go.
@Blitzenexx If by "smile", you mean cringe until your jaw is sore while holding your ears and screaming, yeah, me too!
Still waiting for someone to find the Black Hole Glitch again, I miss those. lol
@Cobalt Wait, wouldn’t using old code prevent certain bugs from happening? In fact, wouldn’t creating new code create more bugs?
People have really been playing the crap out of Isabelle, to discover all these glitches that quickly.
@Anri02
If you knew how "funky" it was to develop on the Wii U, trust me you would not even ask that question...
Isabelle? More like Annabelle horror 😱
I am the Assistant of my Mayor
Fur is my Body and Cute is my Blood.
I have created over a Thousand Trophies,
Unknown to Stock,
Nor known to Time.
Have withstood Damage to create many Characters
Yet those Sticks will never control Any.
So, as I Glitch--
Unlimited Waluigi Works
@Cobalt Furthermore this bug relates to a character and mechanics that were not present in the Wii U game.
@NEStalgia: It's why you buy noise-canceling earbuds. That way you can sip your drink of choice and watch the world burn...All while smiling sweetly.
Can someone out there please find a glitch using Pokeballs now? Hopefully one can be found for Ditto when using Ice Climbers, lol
The assist trophy grabbed double cherries!
@Blitzenexx Pretty sure Isabelle's already onto that trick....
....This would be easier if I had someone to try this with. -.-
@NEStalgia: Isabelle in Smash is starting to make Tom Nook look rather tame.
The infinite Nintendogs might be the most horrifying of the bunch.....
@Blitzenexx Nook is sadistic. Isabelle is sheer horror.
@NEStalgia: I'm beginning to think that all "innocent" video game series have some amount of underlying darkness in them....
@Syrek24 you're funny son !
@Blitzenexx Nintendo games, if you think about them too long are all really really really dark. FROM Software has nothing over them.....
"Fans really want Waluigi in Smash". No they don't, people were/are just memeing and bandwagoning the idea.
It's not a glitch, it's a feature!
Shulk's Monado glitch is also fun. Basically, you just need to hit him with a cinematic Final Smash (K. Rool, Ridley) while he says "Jump" when he activates jump Monado. If done correctly, the art should end by the time the final smash finishes. Shulk should then gain all 5 Monado arts instead of one. You can cancel it by either activating jump again or dying.
That is a great glitch. My son would probably get a real kick out if it, he loves glitches. To bad it will probably be patched by the time Christmas rolls around.
3:58 Oh cool, they added Super Mario Maker as an assist trophy.
So, that glitch with Isabelle and villager with the pocket neutral, does that only work with a villager and Isabelle combo or does it also work with two villagers or two isabelles?
I'm more impressed the frame rate is holding up!
I tried it it didn’t work
Nevermind just got it working with nintendog
Anyone who loves this glitch, or visuals it produces should do matches for the sake of making replays, that can be converted into videos. The videos will be available, long after the code has been patched.
People can now stop complaining about Isabelle being a slot-wasted character.
@locky-mavo Or you know, some people actually want him because they like him as a character. I mean, you really could say the same exact thing about the other characters.

Yoshi can do it too?
Pfffffff, unless somebody can mod Smash Bros to make a naked Isabelle, it's not really a glitch.
@Cobalt knock it off troll these glitches are not game breaking.
@Cobalt Actually its probably what happens when you rush games that are built from the ground up. Isabelle is also a new character. Also, I would say IBM processors are easier to develop for then the nVidia Tegra. If you compare the game next to the Wii U one, you'll see that its not a port. The question is how did Sakurai miss this? Did he really have that much work cut out for him.
@Spoony_Tech Nintendo games don't really push hardware to their limits. Seriously the game is only 16GB in size. Most third party games are like 50-100GBs.
@Retsam I'm only talking about all the characters on screen at once. If you do 8 player battle with only Ice Climbers you get some slow down.
@Spoony_Tech I think its probably how assist trophy are programmed vs a character like Ice Climbers. Its hard to explain but most likely the Assist Trophy was loaded into temporary memory so its probably a memory loop error that is causing this.
This is hilariously amazing and it'll be a shame when it's patched.
Dang, and I’m trying to make her one of my mains. Funny glitch though.
Isabelle is one Dark Conspiracy Theory.
This is your brain on Waluigi 🤯
Waluigis final smash revealed 🤣 trolling like a virus
I guess he really wants to prove himself
@shaneoh Dang, that's what I was going to say.
of course it had to be waluigi.. im sick of the w a h.
INFINITE ISAACS?
@MH4 Fun isn't something I consider when breaking your reality. But this... does put a smile on my face.
