  • It's the start of Spooktober and that means we have a lot of spooky games coming to the channel! For starters, I wanted to take my first ever dive into a classic. Luigi's Mansion sits as the launch title for the GameCube and while I've messed with the series in other entrees, the first game is wildly impressive on a technical level. Indeed, this 2001 game still has some life to it.

    The other games were good but this one had the best atmosphere and feel to it. Legit a great horror game for kids. The portrait ghosts were some of the coolest baddies in mario history.

      Dark Moon was cool for being on a handheld, the game itself was alright. 3 I thought wouldn't match the vibe of the original but it would be a step in the right direction. My biggest complaint with 3 however is the slam mechanic, it makes the game way too easy.

    Should be noted, with the games short run time, it imo helps make it SUPER replayable. You get better each playthrough and eventually memorize the layout of the mansion and where to head after each room(as well as finding missed secrets from before). This was my first video game ever and it’ll always have a special place in my heart for that reason. Also, really good for speed running as well with the short runtime.

    Bro I love that u really capture the feeling of a loving gamer starting a new game back in the day.
    With the "unboxing" and review of everything this game has to offer PLUS a bit of the games history at the begunning.
    Would have loved it when u talked about the whole games history tho, because its really interesting.
    This game was never going to be a game.
    Nintendo wanted to showcase the power for the Gamecube with more realistic asthetics than typical for mario, so they showed luigi in a semi realistic mansion running away from ghosts.
    Fans would love it so much that they thought this would be a real thing and hyped this game up like crazy.
    Until the point where Nintendo decided to actually make it a full blown game.

    I liked the atmosphere and the portrait ghosts. They had enough personality for them to feel like they actually were living things. In the mushroom kingdom you don't really see many humans or human like stuff you know? Sure its dark for a kids game when you think about it, but I appreciate the creativity that went into it.

What a gorgeous and fantastic game!

    I have a GameCube that is all mine now. And this game is one of the gems in my collection. It is such a fun game. It is short. But that is alright. It is perfect for this season.
    I might just play it here soon myself. I haven't played it in a few years.

    When Luigi's Mansion was a demo back in the day and I was a little boy. When Luigi finally is ready for you to play I just stood at the screen not knowing what to do because I thought it was still the cinematic. Then my mind was blown away because I could actually move Luigi and he was in this incredible graphical creation 😮 unfortunately even though the game and the two games after it aren't that long I have yet to commit to them fully and I'm hoping that one day I actually do

  • @wdbisl
    @wdbisl Год назад +1

    The game is so short which makes it very replayable and makes you aim for the best ranking. For instance the portrait ghosts frames represent how well you do (gold, silver, bronze). To get a gold frame and more money you have to get the ghosts in one go which is tricky. I feel Luigi's Mansion 3 although a good game had more filler in it to make it longer which took away from the over all game and makes me not want to replay it as much. I love how many unique ghosts designs are in the original and how you eventually learn to navigate the mansion. The original game for me is just or more fun on a second playthrough.

    Completely missed this one in the GameCube era, but recently picked it up for 3DS. It's awesome! Almost the same fun/spooky charm as the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. And it's neat to see Luigi as something other than Player 2. Looking forward to the others.

There should have been some double-up with another character in the game, making more story's. Definitely a missed chance there. Wario would have been a great one for this.
    With the game itself no problems, but it should have been longer.

    I passed on this game during the GameCube's lifespan. Not sure why. Maybe my 18/19 year self wanted a Mario platformer and not Resident Luigi so much that I just couldn't care at the time. It wasn't a dislike to the cartoonish stuff at all. Pikmin was my number 2 game on my wanted list after Smash.
    I'm glad I did finally play it though. Really good game.

    So this is one of my favorite Nintendo games. An although the smash and such are nice for 3, I kind of don’t like the smash because it gives you an advantage over the ghosts when fighting in groups. While in this game, it creates more tension and struggle. An I kind of think that adds to the spooky vibe since you have to watch out. Not to mention scary back then was all the jump scares and boss ghost’s transformations. But still, if Nintendo remastered this without changing it in any way aside from improving graphics and scene transitions, I would buy it day 1. As well although I’m a Nintendo fan, we don’t talk about dark moon 😂

    This was the first game I ever owned, and I still have that copy to this day. It's my favorite videogame of all time, mainly for nostalgia. But it is a fantastic game with a surprising amount of story and lore for a "Mario" game. There's even flavor text you can read about the ghosts in one of the Gameboy Horror menus (some of them are surprisingly dark). And be glad you didn't play the 3DS version, the controls do not translate well.
