Any disappointment i felt over the GameCube launching without a Mario game was gone after playing Luigi's mansion. It's so different from any other 3D character driven action title i've played in the last five years. Every room is like an easter egg hunt filled with surprises that'll make you tingly all over especially if you're a longtime Nintendo fan. Uncovering little details like discovering things you didn't see before in mirrors, etc. Make you realize how finely crafted this game really is. The controls take about five munutes to get used to they're really intuitive. If you're getting a GameCube, you owe it to yourself to but this. You won't be disappointed.

Move over Mario its little brother's turn

First of all I would like to say I have always been a fan of Luigi. I recently purchased this game and I was suprised at the amount of fun I had playing this game. Yes I will admit it is a little short but that is no reason for you not to buy it. Tons of ghosts to catch and puzzles to solve. Its good for the whole family. If you're like me and are shopping for gamecube games for christmas this is a definite game to buy. Remember it's people like mario and luigi that seperate the great gamecube from other inferior systems like Xbox and Playstation 2.

go ahead nintendo

this game is definetly one of the best games out there. The graphics are unbelieveable. Even though it is a bit short and not that much of a challenge for an adult gamer, it still rocks!

A Launch Game That Might Not Be Worth Your Time

Luigi's Mansion may be a good game for young,fresh,new gamers,but expirienced gamers,like myself,might find this game a little short.It's as long as Pokemon Snap!Besides that,it's one of the best games from the GameCube launch.Just make sure you like a game that would take a seasoned player 15 minutes to get to the first boss.

Luigi's Mansion is short but fun. Four Areas, full of different rooms and different ghosts (Including Neville, Lydia, Mr. Luggs, Melody, and Boos.). Each Area has a boss. The boss is the hardest ghost of the Area. You cannot beat the Area until you beat the boss. (Bosses: Chauncey, Bogmire, Boolossus, and (Bowser) King Boo) Mario fans will love this haunting game of Luigi's quest to save Mario.

A great game, for a great system

Luigi's Mansion was a long waited game for a long waited system, but for any die hard player it was worth it. Many gamers were surprised that Mario was not the main story line for a launch game for the GameCube, but it worked out so well. You play as Luigi and must travel through a hanuted mansion and suck up ghosts through a vacuum cleaner. A blast to play, and is a must own for any GameCube owner.

Excellent family game.

I have played this game twice all the way through with my six year old daughter. The first time we played, she was 4 1/2, the second time we played she was six. Both times, both of us enjoyed it and played steadily through. The graphics are good, the puzzles are reasonably simple, the storyline is easy for kids to relate to, and the play and controls are appropriate for challenging adults without being the least bit frustrating. In order to avoid being frustrated at all with the game, I would advise having a walkthrough, but I would advise even more to go ahead and get the player's guide from Nintendo Power. It'll add a little more to the price but while you're controlling the character, your kids can look through the book, enjoy the pictures, practice their reading skills by guiding you along, and boost their self-esteem by being the authority while getting through the game.

If you're just a gamer and you want to play this by yourself, you probably won't find it nearly as compelling.

Open the Door and Step inside. The Haunt Hunt Begins!

Luigi's Mansion is a game of skill to capture all the ghosts and get a good grade at the end. In Luigi's Mansion the player has to figure out puzzles and know where the ghosts hide to capture them. When Luigi goes into the mansion the place is very dark, the player has to find a key to get into the first room to meet Professer E. Gadd a weird little guy who invented the vacuum he's using called the Poltergust 3000. The reason Luigi is in the Mansion is because he won it in a contest he never entered and went to check it out with his brother, Mario, but his brother went on up a head and said he would meet Luigi there, when Luigi gets there he can't find his brother anywhere so he decides to look in the Mansion.

The game is fairly easy when the player knows the controls, the controls are the following:A button is having call for his brother Mario and to examine/open things; B button is how to turn off the flashfight; Y button is the map screen; X button is search view through the Gameboy Horror; Z button is inventory, use this to see all the gems, coins, pearls, items of Mario's, element medals such as ice, water, fire, and how many ghosts have been caught; R button is how to suck in ghosts, treasures, pans, books - nearly anything; L button is how to shoot things; Use the control stick to move Luigi around; and use the C stick to have Luigi aim the vacuum.

To know how to capture a ghost take the Ghost Capturing 101 course that prof. Gadd has created in his lab or just read this to learn how, the first thing to do is watch out, the ghosts love to sneak up behind Luigi, sometimes they'll be there or in certain rooms just their shadow or a wisp of smoke. Watch for the signs. the second thing is when the ghost shows up shine the flashlight at it to stun the ghost, some ghost are more wily and will freeze only when you find thier weakness. The third thing to do is once the ghost is frozen use the vacuum to suck it up and once its hooked just keep on pulling to see the ghost's hit points deplete as you pull.

Some ghosts like to grab Luigi, to get rid of them just move the control stick back and forth to shake them loose. Some ghosts come down from the roof of the floor Luigi's on, the only way to catch them is to get them is to hit them with the flashlight when they start to laugh.

When Luigi's heart points get low try to find a heart to restore his health, the best place to find a big heart is in the baby's room in the dresser behind the door. Luigi can also get some from ghosts but its random.

Once the Boos are released they will run from Luigi and hid, once one is found the boo will try to hid again so use the vacuum to suck it up, the only problem is they are impervious to the vacuum so if it escapes chase it down because if it escapes for to long it will hid somewhere else, one way to keep them in the room is to freeze them.

I love this game and I would recommend this to anybody who loves, Mario, Luigi, and a very exciting game.

Nice to see Luigi, not Mario for once and it's really fun!!!

I remember when this game launched with the Gamecube. I thought it looked childish, but to my amazement I loved it. Some of the story isn't original but its like playing Ghostbusters just with a vacuum cleaner. A very fun game but too short in my opinion. This is a must buy for all Gamecubers. Best of all its only twenty bucks!
