Casually Hardcore takes a look back at a classic game, Luigis Mansion on the Gamecube. The original review was written in 2001 and is unedited along with a 2012 update to see how the original review compares to today.
NE: "We go over several games originally made for the GameCube that deserve remasters and remakes on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2."
Luigi’s Mansion deserves a full blown expanded upon remake in my opinion. I’d like to see more rooms and post game content similar to the mirror mode but I’m unsure if Nintendo would even consider it.
I fully agree as I love these games. Luigi's Mansion on Gamecube was a fun experiment to fill the launch window but it ended being up a wonderful game with charm and great graphics.
At this point I am waiting for the rumored Luigi's Mansion 4 for Switch 2, which -if Mansion 3 is any indicator- would be massive and amazing looking
Nah, Id much rather see new games. Just add Gamecube games to NSO.
same, the remake era has been fun but I rather see sequels now that just pay homage to their previous titles instead of remake after remake
They should have at least included Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader, Rebel Strike and Eternal Darkness in that list
Eternal Darkness should be up there unless it's mired in licensing problems.
Luigi's Mansion, bc 2 and 3 are there.
Metroid Prime 2
Star Fox Adventures & Assault
Warioworld
Luigi's Mansion is the best Mario spin-off, and we need a lot more games like it
I enjoyed LM3 well enough but honestly, I was expecting more. I want to see Nintendo get a little more ambitious with IP's like Luigi's Mansion. Expand the dev budget for a game like this and increase production value. I want to see LM expand into a true free-roaming "open world" type of game. Break away from the fixed plane level design and give Luigi the same kind of freedom Mario has in say, Odyssey.
Following a lengthy season of Mario and Luigi sets (and more recently, the debut of the LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog set), the new Luigi’s Mansion LEGO expansion set is now available in partnership with Nintendo.
That was a nice little flash back for me and Nintendo gamers reading this worldwide. When i clicked on this the 1st thing i did was look to the left to my astonishing collection of absolutely amazing 1st party Nintendo exclusives. Found Luigis Mansion hidden in the massive stack of gyms and pulled it out.
It brought back alot of great memories of Marios brother finally treated with respect. Finally given a game to call his own. Who would have known it would have ended up being a hand crafted masterpiece. Another fine addition to the already amazing library of Nintendo exclusives.
If you have not given this game a try please do yourself a favor and pick this game up. amazon.com would be your friend in a situation like this. Hopefully all elite Nintendo supporters worldwide get their hands on this game. A nice break from the run of the mill shooter we are spammed with in this day and age.
Rated E For Everyone
this was my first gamecube game not counting the zelda collection that game with the system, pretty good glad i still have it and look forward to the sequal on the 3DS
I hope that there'll a demo for Luigi's Mansion 2 on the eShop.
Way underrated gamecube gem
Love this game.. Really wish luigis mansion 2 would be on wii though, or atleast wii and 3ds , then they could have some cross platforming thing. Idunno, really bunmed though.
