==History==

====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====

Wendy reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. She first appears in [[Doop Doop Dunes]] with [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]], [[Larry Koopa|Larry]] and [[Roy Koopa|Roy]] where they capture Mario, Luigi and Paper Mario. She later appears in the [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]] alongside Roy where they oversee the mining of a special ore that Bowser requires. During this encounter, she is fought alongside Roy. Upon being defeated, she angrily blames Larry for the loss (as Larry failed to arrive when she and Roy called for him to aid in beating Mario & co. up). Wendy later appears in [[Neo Bowser Castle]], where she tries to help Bowser and Iggy stop Mario & co. from getting one of the fire orbs needed to create Papercraft Fire Mario. Wendy is encountered one last time alongside the rest of the Koopalings at the top of Neo Bowser Castle. Wendy and Roy briefly tell Mario & co. that they will finish them once and for all before battling them one last time. After being defeated by Mario & co., Wendy utters some last words, telling the Mario gang that they may have lost but they can do better, before exploding.

====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====

{{quote|Go on, try your best! It won’t be enough.|'''Wendy'''|''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''}}

Wendy appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'' with the same role in the main campaign as the original game, though with her voice clips and added dialogue. Instead of disguising Spinies as clones of herself, her clones are now conjured from her wand. At low health, she will make five clones instead of three. She now spins around, switching positions with her clones every turn. Her attacks have been modified slightly: she now creates a big fireball with her clones, and her clones will perform the bracelet attack with her.  

====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====

{{quote|Hmph! That’s [[Roy Koopa|one less fool]] for me to deal with. Now, where was I? Oh, yeah. LET’S DO THIS!!|'''Wendy'''|''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''}}

Wendy appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', in the game's new side story ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey''. During the opening cutscenes, she and Roy talk with the [[Best Fitness Friends]] about [[Skeletone Formula:D]], a cure for the recent Blorbs outbreak, and are given the recipe. As Bowser Jr.'s strength was being tested, Wendy battles him alongside Iggy, and afterwards joins Bowser Jr. and the other Koopalings (apart from Lemmy, who stayed at Bowser's Castle) to find the ingredients for Skeletone Formula:D.  

Wendy, alongside the rest of the Koopalings, appears as a playable character for the first time in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', where she is an unlockable character. This time, she is voiced by [[Ashley Flannegan]]. Her nickname in a Japanese Nintendo Direct for ''Mario Kart 8'' is ｢打倒プリンセス！」<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-I4diarSU0 "New Drivers!" in the Japanese Nintendo Direct, April 30, 2014.] YouTube. (Retrieved May 2, 2014)</ref>, or "Overthrow Princess!" (localized as the "Speed Queen"<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flpfRzP2ONU "New Challengers" in the European Nintendo Direct, April 30, 2014.] YouTube. (Retrieved May 2, 2014)</ref> or "Princess of Destruction"<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbuJZP0_8iQ "New Challengers" in the North American Nintendo Direct, April 30, 2014.] YouTube. (Retrieved May 2, 2014)</ref>). Her emblem is a pink silhouette of her head on a black background. The CPU-controlled Wendy can drive, along with the usual three standard bodies ([[Standard Kart]] with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires, [[Standard Bike]] with [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires, [[Standard ATV]] with [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires) and the [[Pipe Frame]] with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires, the [[Landship]] with the [[Wood]] tires. In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', CPU Wendy drives the [[Sneeker]] and [[Varmint]] with the [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires and the [[Tri-Speeder]] with the [[Retro Off-Road]] tires.

Wendy is the Normal Staff Ghost for [[Dolphin Shoals]]. She doesn't have an advertisement of her own like the other Koopalings, but section C of the local info map on [[Super Bell Subway]] reveals that she has her own company, "Wendy's Car Interiors".<ref>[[Media:MK8 dSBS City Map.png|The map of the city where the Super Bell Subway course is found]]. Wendy's Car Interiors can be found in the "C" list of points of interest.</ref> She also shares one of the "Women of Racing Organization" banners seen on {{classic-link|N64|Royal Raceway}} with [[Rosalina]] and [[Toadette]].
