'''Luigi's Death Stare''' is an intimidating new [[meme]], a recurring nightmare, and the cancer that is saving the [[Wii|Wii U]], thus preserving the [[Nintendo]] legacy as a whole. With its sales and popularity plummeting, and people having been burned out on similar-looking [[Mario]] games for years now, shit was looking bad for everyone's favorite [[Japanese|foreign]] video game company.

2014 quickly became hailed in the gaming world as the Year of Luigi.


History

Luigi has been known to be foreshadowed by his fat brother in virtually all the Nintendo games featuring the two guidos, and it was time to give the underdog another break. And this time, not in the failed sense of Luigi's Mansion.

Nintendo's head Azns decided that Mario Kart 8 would be the perfect opportunity for Luigi's big break, and unknowingly created a viral monster that somehow got far more attention than it actually deserved, even going as far as being covered by Fox 5 news.


"Grand Theft Mario Kart"

The OP

At the end of May 2014, some YouTube nobody picked up on the frightening glare and posted a video of it titled "Waluigi vs. Luigi," where the Green Gangsta Mothafucka knocks out his subquality replica with a koopa shell and proceeds to stare him down as he rolls past his ass like a G.



As is always the case with the latest internet trends, fanboys and nerds from all over the globe began creating remixes of the original video, including adding rap music to it in an attempt to make it look more deadly than it actually was, and animating Flash parodies to make the intimidation more silly to those who had already been scared of him to begin with.
