- Luigi's Mansion is an absolute classic.
Was Luigi's Mansion THAT good?
Luigi’s Mansion is a built to be re-playable, creepy, pseudo-survival horror game, fun, classic Nintendo title, Luigi’s first real solo game, no checkpoints, manual saving only, stole the Ghostbuster vacuum idea, unique, arcade resident evil for kids, intuitive, fantastic soundtrack, almost every room is a new unique enemy with it’s own puzzle to solve, regular enemies look cute and cuddly, surprisingly deep combat, hearing what Luigi has to say about things is weirdly engrossing, hearing Luigi constantly humming or whistling the games beautiful theme song in your ears depending on if he’s scared or confident is weirdly soothing, ghost-tracking and hunting and honestly so much more. Luigi’s Mansion takes all of these little things and brings them together to create what I believe to be an excellent, unique title and experience that every gamer should take the time to try.

#luigismansion #nintendo #gamecube - Hry
I remember when I picked this up at GameStop as kid, the worker told me “don’t get scared” and boy was I scared from multiple moments when I played this game. I wish I got that same feeling with the other Luigi’s Mansion games but the first one really is the darkest one. The scary elements make Luigi’s Mansion 1 my favorite in the trilogy.
hahah love it! it’s resident evil for kids i swear !! the other ones seem to have toned it down a lot, i tried number 3 on switch the other day and it’s like every room has lighting already lol
I picked mine up at a game crazy attached to the side of a Hollywood video. I still have it right now in my GameCube 😭😭
Agreed. I don't 100% know what it is but the first one manages to handle horror the best. Second is Luigi's Mansion 3, and third being Dark Moon in terms of horror/creepiness. Maybe it has to do with the sound design and darkness?
It'll never happen, but I'd love to see a genuinely scary Luigi's Mansion game.
Fighting enemies that would look right out of actual horror games, but still with the same silly gameplay as the other entries xD
I think it’s hilarious how the sequel reveals that the canon ending to the first game is getting the rank D house
wait, really? i can’t wait for the sequel remake on switch gonna be sure to check that out!
We need more people talking about this gem.
Luigi’s Mansion 1 has an actual scary vibe to it. The sequels are just Weenie Hut Jr with minions.
I do agree that the first one has the best atmosphere, but I think Luigi's Mansion 3 is also amazing even if the atmosphere isn't the same. The first and third are tied for me as the best :)
The sequels do not get nearly enough shit for how lame they are
I love how you both use compliments and comparative critique like the ghostbusters and resident evil comments, it’s a good baseline to know the overall types of experience the game draws similarity too in various ways
Luigi's Mansion is one of the first games i remember beating as a kid, great video man, keep it up!
Thank you i appreciate it!!!
never had a gamecube so i’m catching up on what I missed now
I first played this game in 2006, and I loved it. But I was stuck on the twins room for literally weeks.
hahaha i was definitely there a while too
I love this game, I grew up playing the og on my Gamecube. The version I played was the PAL version and I love what they did there with the Hidden Mansion.
The Hidden Mansion is darker, it's mirrored and they changed Boolossus boss fight in that version. In the PAL version instead of fighting him normally, Luigi takes of his poltergust and decides to ride it. I guess this is where Nintendo got the inspiration for that poltergust car in one of the later Mario Kart games.
an alternate boolossus fight sounds insane!! adding the PAL version to my list to try
I cannot with they way this dude pronounces Mario. Maryou
More like Mayrio
Reminded me of pannenkoek.
it’s the traditional pronunciation that italians use, i’ve met multiple italian people who pronounced the series that way
everything here is so well put, great vid
thank you!!
Eh, critics seem to be the only people that cared that much about it not being a mainline Mario game. Players were intrigued and it got a big enough following to get sequels. And I’m glad. Mainstream Critics are fickle
solid video bro, keep up the content like this. it’s good!
appreciate it!! more on the way!!!
If you can play it on anything that isn't an actual 3DS, the remake is pretty cool too. It expands upon the ranking system by adding platinum frames to the bosses (though you must refight them in Egadd's gallery to get them), achievements, multiplayer (again if you can play it on anything besides a 3DS) and S rank for the money ranking. It also kept most of the differences from the Hidden Mansion PAL version, so it's an overall great package for fans of the original. If you prefer the sequels' way of using the flashlight, it even includes an option for it too! Biggest issue is playing it on a 3DS. The controls suffer hard regardless of if you're using a regular 3DS or a new 3DS.
The original Luigi's Mansion is such a great game. I was bummed out when I learned ages ago that the reason there wasn't a sequel for 12 years was because it was apparently poorly received, but the notion eventually changed and we got 2 and 3. While those games are great in their own right, I do believe the original has a better atmosphere, charm, bosses and art direction, as it was like you said very heavily inspired by Resident Evil and aimed to be a kid-friendly horror game. Hopefulyl one day we can get another game like the first Luigi's Mansion, though I doubt it at this point.
I miss this game. The sound design, the creativity, the gameplay loop with the lights turning on, it's such a unique and memorable game. Sadly, the two sequels went in a very different direction, I think.
completely agreed!!
My all-time favorite game
Luigi's mansion has been one of my favorite games for years, i love the game!
I love all the little details the game has, and how unique the ghosts are.
I never had a GameCube as a kid so I was stuck playing the 3DS remake of Luigi's mansion.
honestly surprised i missed it for this long!!
i don’t have a 3ds but i do want to try the remake apparently it adds a lot including a tougher mansion for skilled players
thank you for watching !!
@@OrignalNameHere You don't need a 3ds. Just beat the base game to unlock the Hidden Mansion.
Great video! I love Luigi's Mansion, even if it always frustrated me lol
Thank you!
It took me a while to get into the swing of things, but once you do everything really opens up and its like the game shows it’s true colors!
amazing intro, properly got my attention
thank you i appreciate it!!!
Love the original luigis mansion but hated the sequels. They seemed to focus more on the combat rather than the survival horror elements
agreed! the sequels are fun but not near the same as the original
This game was the exact game I would have created if I were in charge of a game company. They wtulized graphics suits my style perfectly. It’s also just a lot of fun.
"resident evil for kids"
boy, how long has it been since i last heard these words?
Catch all the ghosts
This is a great vid
thank you so much!! i had a blast with the game!!
If you want a real challenge, you’ve got to play Luigi‘s hidden mansion for the 3DS remake. That’s the only way I’ll play the game now.
i heard about that one when i was researching for this video!! gotta get a 3ds first but it looks awesome, i hear it is harder but also much more satisfying
Hidden Mansion was in the OG. It wasn't made for the 3ds remake.
@@OrignalNameHereThe Hidden Mansion is in the OG. Don't buy the remake if you're only getting it for the Hidden Mansion.
agreed! but im actually really looking forward to seeing the remake in action even before the better hidden mansion mode
Yes I know there is a hidden mansion in the GameCube. There’s barely a noticeable difference in difficulty between it and the original game. But the hidden mansion on the 3ds remake kicks your ass lol
real eyes realize real lies was a banger
-1 point for calling him Mayrio
Awesome to see that people playing this game for the first time enjoy it!
makes me wonder what else i’ve missed over the years
FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT
Sorry for double comment but your mentioning puzzles in modern gaming is why I like RE8, the puzzles aren’t explained and only in one of five major locations are the puzzles so annoying I used a guide, so that’s a pretty good balance if you ask me and it’s really nice to see, heck sometimes the other places still stump me for a bit because it’s intuitive only to the point of being relatively in the window of what a sane person playing the game for the first time could find, and the difficulty comes from you becoming a cartographer and learning the map, and using resources efficiently
i agree i just prefer when the choice isn’t made for me, i’d like to choose when to take the hint or to go look it up as opposed to the game deciding on it’s own that i’ve spent enough time on the puzzle and im ready for a hint
@@OrignalNameHere yeah, at least with spider man on ps4 and 5 will just restate the objective in like 5+ ways so that you aren’t given a huge hint but you also get very Al cues that are phrased with only one commonality so that your never messed up by phrasing
i was scared getting game over that you see E3 2001 Trailer
such a fun launch title.
It will forever be my favorite game. (I still have a playable original copy)
one of my new favourites now !!! shot up my list
Wow, almost 14 million copies of Luigi's Mansion 3
couldn’t believe it either !! can’t wait for the remaster of 2!
I still can't believe it's been 20+ years since this game came out!
time flies when you’re having fun!!
Also the game looks amazing for its time. Still more or less holds up, but remember, we were seeing this game for the first time with the previous Nintendo console being the 64. The leap was a freaking mountain. Still one of the best looking GameCube games.
the leap was definitely huge! 64 to gamecube was one of the biggest leaps in video games ever, especially with the dual analogue sticks and all.
my first time playing i was happy to go through the whole game and even ended up replaying it
@@OrignalNameHere It’s a favorite of mine. Personally I like it more than the actual Mario game we got.
As good as the LM 2 & 3 are I always return to and replay the 1st one. The atmosphere, the weird Hybrid of cartoon and realism in the graphics, Catching ghosts, and the amount of things to look at and interact with. While short that length also makes it easier for me to sit back down and replay and try for a better rank, getting gold portraits and attempting to get A rank. Now don't get me wrong LM 2 & 3 are awesome but they don't feel as replay friendly as the 1st one to me. doesn't help that It feels like some collectables in 2 & 3 are added as after thoughts and don't fully incentivise collecting things quite like the 1st one did. My take after watching all of 3 min. now back to watching the video!
EDIT: Small protip for catching ghosts: When catching ghosts you gotta YANK not just hold the opposite direction. Yanking (flicking the control stick) in the opposite direction not only catches ghosts faster but it helps keep your grip on them. Mastering this can help get the highest portrait rank and maximize pearls earned from portrait ghosts.
i haven’t yet tried 2 and 3 i only played a hit but thats what i keep hearing everywhere. im definitely gonna take a look but im almost more excited to replay luigi’s mansion 1 haha
and i actually just got a 3ds and a copy of luigi’s mansion!!! gonna try and actually yank em!
@@OrignalNameHere AW yea! The 3DS Versions is pretty good! You are def gonna want to master the yank for the newly added S Rank and Platinum portraits! But for the 3DS the Yank is gonna handle a bit differently, for both your hand and the Circle pad's sake instead of Yank you should wiggle it. It does the same effect but is better overall for the 3DS. Pull the opposite direction like normal but wiggle luigi left and right.
Yank on Console
Wiggle for Handheld!
I love this game ❤
I like this video, as well as how streamlined it was. I really agree with the "cog hint" complaint about modern games.
But at the same time, I'm getting really tired of opinions that had become consensus by 2007 being re-framed as some niche and brave take. The original Luigi's Mansion has been in nearly every GameCube Top Ten Titles list ever. It feels similar to seeing a thumbnail that proclaims "Hey Guys, Metroid Prime was actually a pretty good game."
I actually just 100% this game and I absolutely agree with your opinion
couldn’t believe i hadn’t played it earlier!
yes 4543
Why? Why are you saying it like that? You know what I’m talking about. Everyone knows what talking about.
saying what
Spoilers? Bruh, this game is short, easy, and older than you Gen Z knows about this game.
