I think a Wario land sequel with Waluigi as player 2 or unlockable like Luigi in mainstream games would be cool
Waluigi's garage with Waluigi themed mini-games (WALUIGI TIME !), all the mini games are possibly re-imagining of other mini-games except that all the characters are replaced by Waluigi and there is new things which make them harder
Waluigi would be less strong than Wario but more skilled thus he would be able to pull moves Wario can't, yet would deal less damages to ennemies and bosses (he can't cause the same amount of damage in 1-hit like Wario but can chain them unlike him)
Even the Wario timer is replaced by a Waluigi timer
The thing that sucks, is that Camelot holds rights to Waluigi. Well, somewhat, I believe. I don't know the full story, but it's apparently why he's spinoff or trophy only (for now we can only hope)
This actually makes me wonder whether Nintendo owns the rights for the Paper Mario and ML series characters or are they owned by intelligent systems and alphadream respectively

Nintendo owns them I would imagine since they were studios under Nintendo. Unlike Square, which later broke off. I would imagine Nintendo would not want that happening again so they made sure to own everything. I could be wrong. This stuff gets complicated.
I'm actually not sure myself. Wow, I confused myself with my own topic.
Apparemtly, Nintendo doesn't like using characters they didn't create.
That is why we got Sticker Star. They wanted already established characters and no new guys. I would use everybody I could get, whether they were new or established.

I even made a thread about Sticker Star that tried to point out the positives. It had some, but not enough. It lacked character. I started to notice that not long after Decalburg.
I got it on first day of release so we did not know back then that the game would suck. Then the forums started filling up with mad people.
Actually, scratch that. He's the same person who says all other Paper Mario's, and I quote, "suck ass". He also said that it was better than my "crappy" SPM like excuse me. He's 9.
Then again, he actually hasn't played them. I just told him the gameplay was different than Sticker Star

He sounds adopted. No way that crazy boy is related to you.
Kidding, of course. I guess it is all down to opinion. I guess newer game players may like Sticker Star for being kind of like a platformer, or maybe he disliked all the reading from the early games. I like reading, and story is huge to me. I need it. That is why I play RPGs.
Oh, I see. So maybe he will like them if he played them. It all depends on reading and turn-based combat turns people off sometimes too. Although, Super Paper Mario got rid of that and added more jumping.

Hmm, from what i know, Alpha Dream is listed as "Business Partner" (closer to 3rd party) while IS is listed as "Affilated" (which is closer to Subsidiary but with more freedom)
This may explain why Paper Mario tend to get more references than Mario & Luigi (this is probably helped by the fact that Miyamoto is sometime working on PM).
Logically, it should be possible for PM characters to show up in other spin-offs (in fact they did like in MP5 or more recently the Fuzzy horde in SM3DW) but as shown by Sticker Star, unless Miyamoto & Nintendo decide to not label them as "Original characters" but as "Mario characters" they will have trouble to show up (too bad i would have loved to see Count Bleck hosting a Mario Party ).

"That would be wonderful...chimed Count Bleck!" ^_^ I need Bleck Party. He would be a great host and Mimi would fit too. I would have a board for Mimi, O'Chunks, Nastasia, Mr. L, Dimentio, and Bleck!
Star Spirits showed up as hosts, in MP6 you had snow bunnies as cameo, in Mario Pinball and Super Princess Peach there was cameo of the Koopatrols, Goomba King showed up in SM64DS and Mario Kart DS, Fuzzy Horde appeared in SM3DW, Captain Toad has an Excess Express look a like level.
There is a lot of PM mentions but hardly any from M&L games

I actually believe/think that dt will be referenced in some way, being a YoL game
Actually what I have seen, paper mario is more popular among the fanbase than ML games (or at least was) so there is that too. I love them both personally
