Wade

"Which came first, the seeds or the sunflower?"

- Wade

Wade is a lazy, penguin villager from the. He made his debut in and would remain absent from the  after his initial appearance for over a decade, until he made a reappearance in.

Wade's name may be derived from "wading" in water, a behavior of penguins when hunting for fish. His Japanese name roughly means "boiled fish paste", which relates to either his personality (lazy villagers are fond of food) or his species (penguins hunt and eat fish).

Appearance
Wade is a white and black penguin. The top of his head is white, as are his belly and the tops of his arms. He has black eyebrows. Wade appears to be based off of an emperor penguin chick.

Personality
Wade has a lazy personality, meaning he likes talking about food and sleeping. Wade will get along with other lazy villagers due to their similar personalities, but won't get along with snooty villagers since he doesn't care about his physical appearance. Wade also won't get along with jock villagers because he hates exercising and work, unlike jocks.

House
Wade's house in has the same layout as Joey's, with four Sprinklers, a Backyard Pool, and a Red Boom Box. His wallpaper and carpeting are different, however, as he has a Lunar Horizon and a Backyard Lawn, as opposed to Joey's Blue Tarp and Daisy Meadow. He plays Forest Life on his stereo.

Wade's house in has completely changed to a Japanese style. He now listens to K.K. Jongara instead of Forest Life if he has a stereo inside his house. This could reference his appearance in, as was a Japan-exclusive game.
