More work done on this than TLOU Part 2 remastered.

More stuff to want on Switch, as if there wasn't enough already to want! Not paying full retail for that though.

A collection with the 3DS remake of 1 and 2 would have been much better.

Thought it was trash on release and tried revisiting it a few years ago. Still as bad.

Yeah, Nintendo’s remaster prices are kind of crazy.
That said I will snag it for sale at $40-45 like I have done for most of the remasters and Ninty’s other games.

metroid prime was $40 for a phenomenal remaster (practically a remake) but luigi's mansion is a barebones port that is $60, great consistency.

That Mario Markup.

May I have a cookie?
I mean, basically. LM3 on Switch sold 12 million? Compared to 1 million for Prime? Them's the facts.

The level system was definitely a detractor, even if the game itself was longer by a decent margin.
3 is still the best imo with 1 a very close second

It's not a bad game, but I was immensely disappointed in it as a sequel to my (at the time) favorite videogame. I feel like it stripped away everything I liked about the original. No more mansion exploration, no more gallery ghosts, the ghost designs are dramatically less interesting and varied, gameplay is simplified... and the original has this eeriness about it. It's in the Mario universe so it's not Resident Evil, but the tone and the music and the environment are all creepy and spooky. The sequel just tries to be goofy and plays every ghost interaction for laughs.
The original game is simply a better game in every metric (aside from length if you care about that). It is much more deserving of coming to modern hardware.

Worst of the Luigi's Mansion games (so I hear) at a 50% markup from the original release? No chance in hell.

That actually came to Switch with all DLC, a new mission mode, a couple bonus chapters (iirc) and a full two player option for the campaign. So, quite a bit of extra content to justify the increased price.

I bought the game brand new for like £30ish when it first came out.
It shouldnt have been sold to me more
Expensive years later

Can’t wait! Controls were awful on 3DS I couldn’t get more than halfway through.
This game deserves to be on better hardware and with standard dual stick controls.

Barebones port? It’s a full HD remake. Y’all are crazy

I'd rather spend that on TTYD remake

It’s the Dark Souls 2 of LM games. It’s only around a 15% markup when you apply inflation %.
Hard to do worse, there was nothing done on PART2 (please respect yourself and don’t talk to me about the ridiculous No return mode)

Sad state of affairs for physical games.
A good deal for physical games used to be like $20.
Can't even get most non-shovel ware PS5 (let alone switch) games for that cheap anymore.

They’re doing a mistake pricing it like a new game.
It’s my favorite LM by a margin, mainly thanks to the elements that other people don’t like (me, I always found LM1 one of the most boring Nintendo games ever. Replayed it on 3DS and yep, still terribly boring). But at that price it’s not gonna convince those who never played it before.

Luigi’s Mansion and TTYD are likely just gonna be Twitter dropped with release dates at this point. I have to imagine TTYD is May and Luigi is June/July. They won’t need a general Direct til September

Given that a lot of players are probably coming from LM3, I'd imagine this one is gonna be a disappointment. I'm still buying it, though. Curious what my kid will think about it.

It's a $35 game. $40 if we're feeling generous.
