Something that I noticed at the 8:40 mark, when luigi is getting hurt by the fake door, There apparently seems to be a glitch with the nozzle where it's the suction nozzle, yet it has the flashlight coming out, its the exact same glitch that appeared in the 3DS original version

I love Dark Moon

[@masterseekerv6907]

I loved all the “Luigi’s Mansion” games, but choosing my favorite is hard. The first had the creepiest vibes and atmosphere. The 2nd had interesting locations to explore. The 3rd had many themed floors. So if I had to choose from best to least, it would be 1, 3, then 2. I still recommend “2 HD” for people who want to understand the story.

This game is a masterpiece, its so underappreciated.

[@decifal]

I love the Luigi's mansion games. Pure fun

[@kaip-hu7wu]

I got this game when I was 6 or 7 and I’m 14 but I haven’t had a 3ds for ages so when I heard this game was coming out on switch I was hyped to play this masterpiece again

[@viktortesla9681]

Looks awesome. Best part!

[@-Incognitous]

It's literally the same as playing in Citra, only they changed the position of the map and the character models, you can still see polygonal structures.

[@NeonTetraAquarist]

Is it at 30fps?

[@polux178]

no

[@MarvelsScreamSimp]

The fact they're charging 60 bucks for a 3Ds game from years ago that they didn't alter at all besides better graphics is horrible

[@selinadean5824]

Definitely not horrible so glad it’s coming to the switch I also hope they will bring donkey Kong returns to the switch

[@polycube868]

​@selinadean5824 did you hear the good news?

[@selinadean5824]

@@polycube868 yes I did finally been asking Nintendo to please bring DK returns on the switch for months and now it’s happened so happy 😀

[@MTaye7]

Only 30 fps? Sad

[@Drilbit]

Its probably tied to the physics thats why, unlocking the framerate probably isnt as simple as just turning on a switch.

[@MTaye7]

@@Drilbit Well, for 60 bucks they should've tackled this not so simple task.

[@Drilbit]

@@MTaye7 sometimes it isn't that easy without having to basically remake the entire game.

[@MTaye7]

@@Drilbit They wouldn't have to remake the entire game. But they would have to re-test the game way more thoroughly for any framerate related issues and then fix them. More work that would be worth the 60 usd. What they did here isn't worth 60, especially when Metroid Prime Remastered is 40.

[@voicemxil]

@@DrilbitActually it is、the frame rate was unlocked on 3ds

[@matthewdean2720]

How did you get this early?The game hasn't even released yet

[@BoomingInfernape]

By charging $60 it implies it is of the same level of quality as the third game. Yeah right.

[@KatFisherMen]

You’re paying for a better game 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@kaiserwave5977]

This game is better lm3 is just prettier thats it

[@dreamydragon2961]

Could've gotten this on Nintendo selects for $20 a few years back btw

[@maxrichardson6495]

I agree this should be 40 and you can easily get a 3ds version for less. I’ll still be purchasing this version but only because I love this series. I’m a big horror fan and this series has brought me so much joy. Dark Moon might be a mixed bag but It tried to be different in a good way.

[@blake9264]

Dark moon is insanely nastalagic for everyone who played it as a kid. Tied with the first one for me. I just wish they touched up on some animations. Like when Luigi’s wipes the window his hand clips through the lip below it. And some scenes where his eyes littlerally don’t move lol but that’s only a few scenes what I’ve seen.

[@maxrichardson6495]

@@blake9264 totally! Nintendo is weird at times and they either go all in on a remake or half ass it. Links Awakening is the last remake they did that I loved. I’m a huge Zelda fan thought and I have a soft for that game though.

[@tabbywarrior]

This was the best Luigi's Mansion game without a doubt.

[@Dafunnyman69]

THANK YOU. I love luigi's mansion 3 to death, but Dark moon is fucking GOATED

[@tabbywarrior]

@@Dafunnyman69 100%! Dark Moon has soul to it that, despite Luigi's Mansion 3 being awesome, Dark Moon's just complete. There's no way to make it better. It's simpler with a more complex plot and more creative level designs, as well as a better fear factor and more locations. LM3 was truly fun, but it was only 1 mansion, some strange combat mechanics (but Gooigi is amazing) and I like that it respects Dark Moon more than most sequels do

[@matthewbuckley7757]

I like both games but 3 in my opinion is better but 2 is still good

[@KaiserGX]

@@Dafunnyman69 What's great about it? I played it a long time ago but I don't remember much. Deciding if I want this or not for the Scarescrapper because the Scarescrapper is a pain to do solo in 3.

[@autosaver]

Back when this game came out, there was a lot of hate. I did enjoy the multiplayer. I never finished the story mode.

Worst Luigi mansion for me. Don't like the missions style gameplay I prefer the first game style more.

[@kyahl]

Visually very disappointing compared to the other Switch ports we’ve seen recently

[@samuelbaugh4952]

This looks so cheap, the Gamecube game looks better. Nintendo really charging $60? 😂

[@TheRealBobbleHat]

Bro it's a 3ds game, the 3ds didn't have console graphics chill dude 💀

[@lordakiasantiago7562]

Shitty game... Luigis mansión 1 Is the BEST ONE

[@samuelbaugh4952]

It really is, I don't know what went wrong with 2 and 3

[@toinfinitybeyond437]

This looks like it has better graphics than LM3. Does it play in 60fps anyone?
