Suffers the same trappings as other FPS arcade games in that you get bombarded with damage that feels impossible to fully prevent, but the novelty of the Poltergust controller and the haptic feedback of sucking up ghosts and items with it bumps up the experience. Honestly the fact that it's not only a genuine Nintendo arcade game, but Luigi's Mansion of all things gives it such undeniable charm.
Played a few rounds of this game with my sister at local mall arcade several years back & it was a good time. The Poltergust controller is pretty nifty & gives you some decent physical feedback when you're vacuuming in goodies & ghosts. Turning the concept of Luigi's Mansion into an on-rails shooter-type game may seem odd in theory, but in practice it makes for an amusing title that's worth a go if you can find it near you.
They removed this from my local arcade, in unrelated news my local arcade was hit by some friendly arson.
Me and my friend were playing this at a arcade and some random kid came into the cabinet and grabbed my leg and that scared me so bad I accidentally kneed him
Shitty arcade game. I don't remember this being much fun
Pretty fun experience, especially with a friend. Arms started hurting after a while due to the size of the polutergust controller, but that’s any arcade game with a quirky control method. Beat the whole game with a friend at a Dave and busters. Was fun
