Is Booster from RPG possibly related to Wario and Waluigi somehow?

Booster's sprite is so small in the game that when I finaly saw a blow up of what he looks like

http://www.mariowiki.com/images/d/d5/Booster2.jpg

I immediately noticed how he kinda resembles Wario and his defining Characteristics.

He's Fat and way his Hair looks, and the effect of the Horned Helmet all make me think Wairo now.

Pluse he has a love of Bombs.

Seems like Square made a Wario knockoff, heh. Makes sense, as it seems few actual Mario characters are 'evil' in the game, the game seemingly being an experience where FF-style characters fight Mario ones.

If I remember it correctly.

^ Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Also, there is a bit of a resemblance.

I know you usualy don't like me bumping old threads but there is a very intriguing incidence wiht the new Wario Game.

ワリオランドシェイク

That new Pirate looks very Booster like, and sorta has the Totem theme even.

That guy is a Viking, not a pirate.

That said, he has certain similarities to Booster.

Probably a reference to him; since Ninty can't just use Booster himself.

Booster is actually more insane than Wario, anyway. They probably wouldn't bundle him in the same series even if they owned him. See: Suspicious lack of Waluigi outside of weird side-games.
