Mario was Playable in Luigi's Mansion? ► bit.ly/2VCytGs
L is Real 2401 is a gaming mystery many of us will never forget. It was by far the biggest conundrum in Super Mario 64... Could Luigi be unlocked? And if so, how? Due to no further information, this mystery perpetuated for years... But back in 1996 there was actually one piece of documentation that would have stopped the hunt immediately. Unfortunately for us, it was inaccessible. This is the full story of Luigi's disappearance from Super Mario 64...

One of the reasons why I think it took so long for these translations to come about is simply that the original guidebooks were essentially lost in time. They are still out there, but TONS of versions have been released in Japanese. Some official, some not. So if anyone was looking up a guidebook to get now, and if Japanese isn't your primary language, you wouldn't know which one to grab. So the two original versions containing these interviews were buried among all the new versions that came out once the game exploded in popularity. These interviews were not included in the versions we got in the USA... Which would have stopped L is Real 2401 immediately. Although I've stated we were trapped in a bubble - a close circle of friends at school to circulate rumors, the truth is, the USA was in its own giant bubble and we had no idea.

I remember the time when this rumour of Luigi was a hot topic. I didn't expect him to actually be a part of Mario 64 even if it has only been during the development phase. Even though they stated the split screen mode was removed due to hardware there should have at least been a way to unlock him and play instead of Mario. I'm really curious if beta Luigi would have played different than his brother.

It's very interesting how parallel Super Mario 64 and Luigi's Mansion are with the Rumors of playable characters. Luigi gets cut from Super Mario 64? *He has to be in the game somehow!* Mario isn't playable in Luigi's Mansion? *He has to be in the game somehow!* And then both rumors turn out to be true. Showing left over code, models or even just pieces of ram labeled *Player 2.* Both games seemed at one point or another intended to have a Co-op mode that never came to be until modders starting digging.

This my main issue. If a model for Mario in the original Luigi’s Mansion could be dug up from the game files from when he was supposed to be playable then why do we not have a model for Luigi in the game files of SM64 especially since he was IN the game and just removed 4 months prior to release?! It makes no sense for there to be no character model for Luigi in the games code for SM64. I just want to see how he was supposed to look in the original SM64. But sadly we'll probably never know

The thing is, Mario 64 was among the very first N64 games ever made. Fresh from SNES, which had VERY limited cartridge space. They may have done some test dumps to cartridges during production, and were worried about space being an issue, so a quick way to alleviate the worry would be to delete unused objects and code. Only early EP-ROMs from those tests may contain more Luigi code in them, but that'd be a miracle, as I'm sure Nintendo would be watching all property with their flagship mascot like a hawk. But yeah, leaving unused data on N64 cartridges, and later on future technology, likely happened more later, when the programmers felt more sure about how much space they could spare. It just stands to reason that with early creations, especially since the hardware was still being developed alongside the software... that they would be a lot more conservative of file sizes.

@@ZaCloud-Animations___she-her Oh yeah, no doubt about it this game was rushed towards the end as a lot of things in the game are evident to that. I mean maybe? All I can think of is code for a separate HUD, the possibility of L and M icons for who collected what star on the file stats screen, interaction data between Mario & Luigi, cutscene control independent for each character (as well as the models, animations and textures for Luigi). But I'd imagine that would've been more hassle than it was worth to remove that? Oh yeah, I suppose voices would have been a bit excessive too

When I was a kid I didn't know about the "L is real thing" but for some reason I still associated that statue with Luigi. I remember making up stupid stuff when playing games with my sisters or cousins watching. Because there were Boos back there I told my family members who watched me play that it was Luigi's grave 😂 and that the ghost who waits in the hallway was Luigi haunting me.

If/When Nintendo decides to do a N64 style of playing the NES/SNES games on Switch, they should re-incorporate Luigi as a playable character for SM64, whether it be for online play or local co-op. I think that would be the closest thing fans could get for Luigi existing in Mario 64.

Man, the whole "L is Real" saga is one of the most beautiful game myths ever. Especially with the information we got about Luigi's planned inclusion. I don't know how to describe it, all the various aspects, the mystery, just make it this beautiful little thing, and I don't think it can be truly replicated. Does anybody else have that weird feeling about this legendary rumor?

I once heard an interesting interpretation for that. In OoT, the sign read "Great dead dodongo. When it sees red, a new way opens." Oddly enogh, that same logic can be applied with gaining access to Big Boo's Haunt, by defeating a Big Boo, something that is indeed both great in size and very much dead. "Great Boo. When defeated by red, a new area opens."
