Mario Kart World has only just been released, but fans have already discovered a hilarious reference to the classic "Luigi Death Stare" meme that became so popular after its discovery in Mario Kart 8. The Luigi Death Stare originated from Luigi's intense glare and perceived annoyance with other drivers as he passes them after hitting them with an item in MK8. The meme was so widespread that it saw use in commercials for the game, and now, it's being referenced in MKW, too.
In a post by DLAOG on Reddit, the user has captured a screenshot from Mario Kart World of Yoshi doing his best imitation of the infamous death stare. The user captioned the post with, "Yoshi ain't playing around," as he looks back and gives the same intense glare that Luigi gave in the previous game. Yoshi is widely regarded as one of the most adorable Mario characters, so to see such a cute character be so intense is pretty funny.
The Death Stare meme was picked up in a video called "Waluigi vs Luigi," which was posted to YouTube by Rizupicorr in 2014. The video is a slow-down of Waluigi getting hit by a green shell...
