Oh, Luigi came too. Super.
I loved playing the Gamecube when I was younger, my brother and I spent countless hours playing Double Dash and Sunshine. I also had my first real taste of the Resident Evil games, not playing them myself but watching my stepdad play the RE1 remake and then later RE4. Despite all of these great memories, my experience of the gamecube pretty much ends there. We had quite a few of the exclusives for the console, but I only wanted to play the Mario games. There was one game in particular that I remember completely ignoring at the time and that was Luigi's Mansion.
Luigi's Masion is another example why I and so many other people love Nintendo. Ghost Hunting in a spooky mansion while trying to collect as much cash as possible. Why not? Nintendo are so good at coming up with fun ideas. Luigi's Masion is a short game but it uses this to its advantage. Every action is rewarded with cash and all goes towards your final score at the end of the game. This paired with the short time to beat creates a fun arcade-like experience with so much replayability. I rarely want to revisit a game once I've finished it, but after receiving a terrible rating at the end of the game, Ive decided I need to give it another go.
Luigi's Mansion is a game full of personality. I love atmospheric games and I can happily say that Luigi's Mansion nails it. What makes this game special for me though is how much love has gone into giving Luigi a personality of his own. From nervously humming along to the music to his calls for Mario becoming more desperate when his health is low. All these little details help give Luigi his own identity.
It's sad that Luigi's Mansion is so hard to play these days. This and so many other Gamecube games need to be more accessible. I can see why this game has such a big following. I will definitely be coming back to Luigi's Mansion every October to try and beat my score.
I'm sorry I took you for granted Luigi, it's taken me a while to realise it. I'm glad I finally gave you a chance.
