Fumihide Aoki, who was the designer behind Waluigi, today shared concept art and other images of Wapeach, a character who was originally intended to be in Mario Tennis. The shots were posted on social media.
What might be most interesting of all is that the sketches above were actually made during Mario Power Tennis. Wapeach has ties to the original Mario Tennis, but Aoki said she only had a name when the N64 title was being developed and nothing further. He added that he’s unsure why the design was ultimately scrapped.

Masahiro Sakurai wanted Nintendo to include a scroll wheel on the GameCube controller
Posted on 11 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, News, Random | 0 comments
Masahiro Sakurai posted his latest YouTube video today, and includes an interesting tidbit of information that he wanted a scroll wheel on the GameCube controller when the hardware was being developed.
Sakurai said he was allowed to give input – which makes sense given his close relationship with the company thanks to the Super Smash Bros. series. As explained in his proposal for Melee, the scroll wheel – or jog dial – “is a knob that you can turn either up or down, and it also functions as a switch if you press it in.” The idea here is that players would more quickly make menu selections and it’d allow for smooth camera movement.
