OH GOD YES.

I think most of fandom's fanaticism with Luigi is what made me like Mario more. I got so sick of the Luigiheads tearing down Mario, I became a fan of the lead guy himself just to support him.

That isn't to say Luigi is a horrible character. Far from it. He's great in games like 'Mario and Luigi 1' (the sequel notsomuch, but that whole game sucked ass to begin with) and even 'Luigi's Mansion' where he -GASP!- actually rescues his brother and is so happy he's alive at the end of the game. Would he have reacted the way he did if Mario was such a domestic abuser like people claim him to be?

I've often joked with my sister that Luigi fans are like a fanatical religious cult. Unfortunately, that isn't too far from the truth. I think there's still a fatwa out against me for my thread at NSider a year or so ago saying that Luigi was not the best Mario character ever (but also stressed he wasn't the worst, either, but some people are very selective in remembering things).

But yeah, Luigi = Awesome. Luigi as portrayed by overzealous fans = Not Awesome.
