If you're a fan of Nintendo's purple mischief-maker Waluigi, there's not all that much to be excited about right now.
We guess that's why his followers on social media are so happy about the latest render of him that's popped up in this week's episode of Nintendo Minute.
As our resident render expert Jon Cartwright notes, Waluigi's tongue and curves are on full display. Here's a look:
In somewhat related news, Nintendo has also released new renders of a number of characters from the upcoming release, Mario Golf: Super Rush. You can see more over on the game's official website.
These latest renders follow on from similar news last month, when it was discovered Nintendo had updated the Mario Party DS render of Diddy Kong with fur.
What do you think of all these new renders? Like the new Waluigi one? Leave a comment down below.

Waluigi is a sexy beast and knows it.
That's certainly... Waluigi. Only he could pull off a pose like that.
I wouldn't go so far as to say the internet is explaoding about this, though.
Whoa Nintendo
Tone down the sexuality. You can't have Waluigi looking fine as hell in your renders
Forget the tongue, look at those CURVES, DAAAAAMN
Come on Nintendo, we gotta protect the children’s eyes from this sexy hunk of a man!
I was never on the Waluigi for Smash bandwagon, but...Waluigi for Smash.
I really don’t get people's obsession with Waluigi. He’s never really appealed to me.
Look at that pose 😆
I still think Diddy's updated render was just to keep it in line with this. https://www.mariowiki.com/Gallery:Diddy_Kong#/media/File:Kansai_Group_Artwork.jpg This was already furry and I think his other render was updated so everything would look the same.
That's such a good render! What a pose lol; it's definitely Waluigi
When Twitter's cropping goes horribly right

Why the tongue though?
What is he licking?
Nintendo what are you doing putting these images kids look at this
Damn, Waluigi is showing it today! man just think if he was in smash, such a character. (And if he was this needs to be on the character select screen)
What the hell is that?!
@g_ruz at this point, if he ever does get into Smash, his moveset and final smash will be memes. I don’t mean the moves will become memes—I mean the memes themselves are his moveset.
This is what happens when nintendo keeps us this thirsty.
@Friendly Obviously it's a new skin for Ghirahim in Skyward Sword HD
@Severian as long as his hot girl summer pose from this article makes it in as a taunt, I’ll be happy.
When are we going to see someone draw Waluigi in the art style of classic Wario game commercials of 1992-1994.
@Shambo every time i see that image i’m not surprised Skyward Sword didn’t sell that well.
How many parents see that image and think ‘I’m going to buy that game for my kids.’?
No love for Waluigi's pointy rump?
I somehow have a feeling that after the second Smash pack is released that they'll surprise us with Waluigi, ideally as a "thank you" freebie either to all users or as a bonus to those who have bought both passes. While I like Waluigi, I am indifferent to his presence in Smash as he has only ever been a glorified roster filler, and there are many other characters who deserve the slot over him, but, the fans are also quite demanding.
Jokes aside, glad Nintendo is showing respect to Waluigi in some capacity.
Oh so lovely <3
Triffic........?@Nintendo. Please make some games so NL can publish real articles
What is the appeal of him? Why dies people like him so badly? I don't hate or dislike him, but I don't understand the notion behind that.
I oughta cosplay as that Golfer!Peach.
"The Internet", yeah all 10 of them.
I’m a Wario man myself
I think deep down we all know Waluigi will be the last DLC fighter.
That pose would fit right in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
Has anybody noticed that, on the official website, the game is said to have "in-game purchases" (scroll all the way down to the ESRB rating)? Mario Tennis Aces does not have that line. So, microtransactions confirmed?
My headcanon: Waluigi isn't evil, he is just mario and Warios accountant ( lot of coins to count in the mushroom kingdom!). They needed a doubles partner for Wario to play tennis and have been inviting him along ever since. He and Wario bonded over a mutual love of coins and are dating.
There was a time I thought Waluigi was a fun, cool and interesting character, then the internet happened.
@Waluigifan "In-Game Purchases" seems to be Nintendo's go-to term for any kind of DLC so could just be for keeping their options open for Smash Bros/Splatoon 2 style DLCs/Expansions.
Worth noting that the Animal Crossing New Horizons website says the same thing on it and we haven't had any paid content as yet... https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/animal-crossing-new-horizons-switch/
@Waluigifan Actually I think when they say "In-Game Purchases" but there's no paid for DLC they're usually just referring to content that requires an NSO online subscription.
This give me some serious Jojo vibes here
(this must be the work of an enemy stand!)
And the ladys go wild 🤣
You guys must be desperate for clicks to post pornography like this
Weird pose coming from Nintendo. What poses did they turn down?
Daisy got some nice legs. And Peach is busty. Good job, Nintendo, and now add the gorgeous Pauline in this game.
Good Idea: Stopping to smell the roses.
Bad Idea: Stopping to taste the roses.
Why, why does it have to look like this? He do be Waluigi though.
"What is the appeal of him? Why dies people like him so badly? I don't hate or dislike him, but I don't understand the notion behind that."
@Ulanda
lol the rose is really a big part of his identity now
@Emperor-Palpsy
@John_Koshiro YESSS totally! Probably intentional, I would guess.
I like Waluigi, more than Wario. Just in his appearance and behavior, he's got the classic melodramatic villain thing down and he's just totally... out there. I'm not into the Waluigi For Smash business, because I couldn't care less who is in Smash, but I enjoy him in Mario Kart and am looking forward to more of him in Golf. This render is quite encouraging.
I was not ready for how thirsty the internet was going to be about this.
I just wanna know who at Nintendo thought "Yeah it would be a great idea to give the internet a picture of Waluigi with his tongue sticking out. No one will make something bad out of it at all.".
I'm going to Jack in the Box, anybody want anything?
is Waluigi trying to do a Bayonetta pose? oh cheecky Waluigi.
"Random: The Internet Goes Wild For New Waluigi Render"
(senses generalization of "Internet" in this text; dislikes such generalizations)
I don't really like Waluigi that much, but if they made an amiibo of him in that pose I'd totally get one.
I’m honestly a little disturbed by it.
As if he wasn't enough of a creep already! ^_^
@MsJubilee Take a cold shower.
