While the idea of a Thunderhand reference is kinda cool, consider this: Not only was the Thunderhand stuff only in one game, but a subsiquent game in the same series featured him using fireballs INSTEAD of Thunder.
But here's a suggestion that might appease both parties, but likely just raises even more debate. It also depends on something, but I'll get to that quickly with this question: If Mario's alternate costume is Dr. Mario, does that change his fireballs to capsules like in Melee? If so, maybe Luigi can get some kind of Thunderball as a simple asthetic change in his Mr. L costume, which KINDA works since Thunderball and Mr. L originated in the Mario RPG series.
... The PROBLEM is that they emerged from two DIFFERENT RPG lines, so that would be kinda pointless too. But here's another suggestion: maybe replace one or two of his non-special attacks with some kind of lightning effect?
Really, I can see him just being the same, though.
