One thing i really appreciate about this game is how far they went with the British localisation. Just about every line of dialogue was altered slightly to fit better with British slang, and many of the ghosts had their names changed (although that made looking up guides online a pain).

[@Arcad3n]

Huh, I’m from the United States so I wasn’t aware of this at all! What’s your favorite piece of changed dialogue?

[@louierichardson8832]

Honestly there weren't many major overhauls to the dialogue, just minor alterations. The boo called Bootine was renamed, probably because no one here knows what that is, and they corrected a mistake where E.Gadd tells you to turn down the brightness on the DS (which was impossible on the original DS).

[@Spammycrow]

Arcaden My personal favourite was E Gadd's remark about selling the King Boo painting at a 'car boot sale'. It's such a uniquely British term (and TOTALLY the type of scene for an eccentric hobbyist like him) that it made me burst out laughing the moment I saw it.

[@funmarioboy5072]

I feel like a lot of people just say "#1 was better" and leave it at that. In my opinion, I think BOTH are great titles, but for different reasons. The first one was ominous, the lighting was darker, the ghosts were real, and the soundtrack was spooky. #1 was a great "Nintendo horror game" if you catch my drift. Having all the horror Esthetics, without ACTUALLY being scary (For adults at least.) Nitro hit the nail on the head, Dark Moon is different in many ways, and the main way I see is that it's more aimed for children. Just look, Dark moon has higher lighting, more friendly ghosts, Luigi's bumbling personality, and a more childlike soundtrack. But it has cool puzzles, funny atmosphere, and lots of charm. I feel like what Nirto said was true. Luigi's mansion isn't mostly about the game, It's about the FEEL, it's about the experience. Overall, I will always return to these two games. I feel like they're both made well, and both are very fun. But more of that, they're both fun for DIFFERENT reasons. While Dark Moon isn't like the first one, I'd still say it's a great game. At the end of the day, what I'm trying to say is, I wouldn't ever substitute one for the other. While both are labeled "Luigi's Mansion" both are VASTLY different, and in my eyes, that's ok! If I feel like playing Dark Moon, I'm going to play Dark Moon, if I want the original, I'm playing the Original! Both are very differnt, but both, are fantastic!

[@BrokenG-String]

I think Dark Moon was a great sequel and did it justice. I was actually surprised at how good it was, I came in with little expectations. The only things I think were worse in regards to the first one was it's ambience, soundtrack/sound design, and ghost design/ absence of portrait ghosts. The gameplay was great, Luigi always made me laugh, and even the environments were interesting, I just wish they were connected in some way. I also put in many hours into the multiplayer, while the online definitely needs a lot of tweaking I definitely loved the challenge and working with others that actually knew what they were doing lol. One of my favorite games on 3ds hands down.

[@JC101_Official]

Alright, I do agree with most of your positives and criticisms, but the one I have to disagree with you on is the game's soundtrack. Luigi's Mansion 1 has an iconic theme, but my problem is that it has ONE THEME for the WHOLE MANSION. Sure, it's a much shorter mansion, so there's no danger of it getting old. But to me, Dark Moon has the better background music because each mansion has its own song, each entirely unique and interesting. And heck, the one theme that is considered the game's "main theme" has a remix befitting of each mansion. Granted, those remixes are reserved for the repetitive time attack missions with a couple exceptions, but they're still good remixes that get me jazzed for ghost hunting. And when it comes to battle music, I have a problem with your argument. Yeah, LM1 had the ticking numbers to go with the music, but when you played the Dark Moon ghost sucking music, you didn't put in the part that gives that music its impact: the electric suction sounds that accompany filling up the meter for the suction burst. That's the part that completes the theme for me, like with the ticking numbers from LM1. But hey, honestly, between each game's battle music, they're about equal to my ears. There's nothing wrong with either of them to me. And with the E Gadd cell phone theme, yeah, I agree. He calls you way too much, but I still want that to be my ringtone. But hey, this is the first video of yours that I've watched, and I really liked it. Here's to Luigi's Mansion 3 bringing the best of both games to the table!

[@Ihasnotomato]

I was waiting for this! And I gotta say your comparisons to the original were spot on, for years I thought to myself that both games were good in their own way but I always preferred the original without being able to put my finger on why (other than the mission based system) and I think you were able to highlight those details for me a bit more! Only other thing I would say was the the original was darker as a whole, both figuratively and literally, while 2 is a bit brighter (more purple glows less darkness and browns) I always thought of comparing the two like this 'it's like if two different development teams were both given the same concept at the same time but made different games' Here's hoping 3 captures the best bits of both games! But I gotta say, despite there only being a 30 second trailer, it's looking good so far and I'm damn hyped!

Man I love this game. It's so good. When compared to the original, it's hard to say what is better. The classic feel of the original is phenomenal... and Dark Moon's is so different, yet still great in its own way. I'm glad Luigi's Mansion 3 is looking to be a mix of the two. I'm betting Portrait Ghosts will return as guests in the hotel, and I'm hoping the music uses a perfect blend of orchestration and spooky electronic sounds. I disagree with your stance on Scarescraper though. I've spent hours on it. It's so much fun for me. Cooperating with random people online, while spouting out the hilarious "help help" "He-ey" and "Good Job" all the time. I really hope it comes to Luigi's Mansion 3, but with more modes and options. The original was going to have characters other than Luigi, but they wanted the game to be playable via Download Play, so they had to use something that didn't take as much space. They also weren't gonna make the rooms so simplistic and randomly generated. I think there needs to be some form of Random Generation, but is they could get a lot more layouts and multiple floors and room ideas in Scarescraper for Luigi's Mansion 3, that would be amazing. And with the New addition to the Nintendo Switch Online app, you would be able to speak with the strangers you are playing with using the app. I'm so excited, I really hope they use this potential.

I mean, I guess the lack of portrait ghosts made the first game unique. But the style of the first game just made it feel more, spooky and strangely comfy. The fine details and the darkness just made it feel really nice? I don't know how to describe it, but it's good. The personalities of the ghost also helped with the first game too. The ghosts in the first game felt, mean and actually scary.

@@MrMetalforever5 Tell that to the Ice Monster and King Boo, those 2 were pretty damn scary in Dark moon, (albeit the only scary character's/moments) King Boo's new design in my opinion works quite well (I'd argue better than the original but that's up for debate) the purple with the extra teeth along with the lighting make Dark Moon King Boo still pretty terrifying especially at jumpscare moments or when he's in your face. and the Ice Monster I feel like Rad could have been nicer too since it's a pretty new dynamic of being a first person shooter and is actually hard for a Luigi's mansion boss. As well as the Ice Monster's face and roar's also be pretty scary and when he tries to suck you in, the formation of the face the laughing when you miss a bomb, both you (Luigi/the player) and the Ice Monster going deeper and deeper into the ice pit all the while with the constant pressure of the Turret overheating causing an automatic game over gave me chills, fear and made me paranoid about the turret overheating.

Gameplay, personality and story is better than the original, but the original had better atmosphere and had a bit more memoriable and surprising moments. I'd say dark moon is by far the supierior game, but the original is more unique in its presentation, which is its biggest upside, and the main reason why its my favorite game. Also, wait doesn't dark moon have about the same number of core ghosts, not counting portrait ghosts from 1? LM1: Orange ghosts, pink punchers, grabbers, trash can ghosts, shyguy ghosts, speedy spirits. Thats 6. Unless you coint the hallway ones, like the bowling ghost and ceiling ones, that's 8. LM2: greenies, brutes, sneakers, hiders, goop ghosts, those fat ghosts, poltergiests, goldies. Thats 8 main ones. So I guess about the same. But the ones in 2 also have alot of different forms, especially greenies. Sooo unless theres ones I missed, then they're the same. Also, for 3, I know I'm gonna like it regardless, but I want some more ambient moments. And maybe make the lit up rooms quiet with whistling like the 1st.

I think Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon's biggest draw is the fact that there's so much replayability. I recently went back to play the original Luigi's Mansion, beat it in practically an hour, and have nothing to go back to. I pretty much used up Luigi's Mansion, but I still feel like Dark Moon gives me more that I can have fun with.

2:05 Topsy-Turvy is a British Musical Drama released in 1999 so maybe the changed name has something to do with the title being copyrighted in the region

The Dual Scream ringtone is so memorable; I *still* hum it, to this day, due to how simple it is. It's one of two songs to really embed themselves into my brain, alongside OoT's Zelda's Lullaby. I love the Dual Scream ringtone; it's the GoaT, I swear.

We need Dark Moon no matter what. If we didn't get Dark Moon, Luigi wouldn't have adopted polterpup. And it is just too adorable. It's a ghost dog that somehow both feels like an actual dog, and a ghost, at least in the third game. The way it just shows up and seems excited to see Lugii and then jumps throuh a door, it's just great

The Multiplayer in my experience was terrible. Nobody wanted to work together and people kept on dropping off. I really left the game there because I couldn't complete it without the ghosts, but everything else was fun, tedious at times, but fun.

One is "Mario and the Music Box" and the other is "Pocket Mirror" both seemingly RPG maker games that had weird designs that... Actually worked out amazingly! I recommend selecting either of your choosing. Both are beautifully made in my opinion but I'm interested in hearing your opinion! P.S. If its not too much to ask, can I get a shout out?

luigi's mansion 3 better have portrait ghosts!

[@buttermeat6529]

nope, but it has something just like it.

[@Gatekid3]

Luigis mansion 3 looks like its in a tall haunted hotel (or at least, the luggage, and hallway cleaning supplies makes it look that way), so i hope each floor has like, one or two special "residents" or something to fill the portrait ghosts role based on activities only on that floor. like a dining area, maybe a theater, pool, etc. The verticality of the mansion this time can lead to a lot of ideas with elevators and general methods of getting to each floor. like maybe the elevator refuses to go past the floor you are on so you have to take the spooky endless stairs to fix it from above, maybe you have to climb out a window and use a creepy fire escape to get around it to the next floor. or maybe you skip a floor and have to go through the pipes to get back down to it. Point is, i just want to see what they do

I personally disagree with you on the music. It's really good, and I didn't even know it was all orchestra until you mentioned it. I hope Luigi's Mansion 3 combines the best aspects of both games to make one of the most fun games on the Switch!

[@MIKERPHONE]

I now totally understand that void I felt while playing Dark Moon and your jokes really got me. This is my new favourite Nitro Rad.

[@Horrorfreak106]

The horror atmosphere of the first game is completely gone for this more child friendly approach. It's horse shit honestly. I remember as a kid being afraid to play the first game, but then once I got the first floor to get it's lights back on, I felt this sense of relief and that I really accomplished something (another reason why an open mansion is better than level based missions).

[@Jdudec367]

eh no...trying to get stuff like your poltergust is just as scary honestly 2 was scarier and a better game

[@aaronjones6299]

That was because you where a kid I seen kids get scared of regular Mario ghost houses and even darkmoon itself so saying it scared you as a kid is not saying much. But it is a bit creeper overall.

[@notmintmobile]

nice to see you looking at this game, I remember it being one of the first games I had on my 3ds

[@PresidentPixel]

Honestly, if they toned down the personalities of the ghosts and made them more scary than playful kind of like in the first one, better controls, and did better with the music this game would have been much better. I agree that the portrait ghost made the first game so great along with an amazing soundtrack, the final battle with king boo in dark moon honestly could have worked so much better the part where you have to run away from him made for really good imagery that reflected the first game, but the arena part made it feel childish again which sure it’s a Luigi game, but god did the final battle in the first one made it feel like the stakes where high!

[@Blackmangaman17]

Luigi’s Mansion 1 captures the creepy atmosphere, fitting music, scary sound effects, portrait ghosts etc.. Dark Moon is too happy and fluffy.. They have to change back to the original developers and let Kazumi Totaka recompose the music for LM3 or its gonna be a bust

[@Mystic-Aidan]

[@dubsquad156]

Back at my old daycare (I’m in high school right now) this game would be the main thing everybody would be playing. Everyone would be on the multi player function for hours on end and when I started to spread a rumor that I heard somewhere that if collect enough of these Luigi’s Mansion cards the school was giving every time we checked out a book everyone was trading, and gathering these cards at Battlefield elementary. So it was pretty big in the area where I lived.

[@celdamagecody2153]

[@adrianwoodruff1885]

Future Adrian here 1. You want gadgets. Flash, dark light, burst jump, plunger with rope, GOO. 2. Would 15 small mission like chapters work? 3. How about different music for each floor? Variety 4. You want the puzzles, you got them. 5. Not quite like 1's, but how about a good ghost fight every floor. 6. Tug of war is nice, but slamming them is even better.

[@Spika94]

Yea, the portrait ghosts are definitely a must. I have the 2nd game on my shelf behind me and I don't think I got past the 2nd mansion. I hated the mission system and how lights could get turned on again even tho I had already cleared that room.

[@lynseyshrewsbury7973]

18:42 One of my favorite cutscenes and one of the reasons why I love the Mario Bros.

[@sparex4273]

I'll give the separate mansions credit where credit is due. The over all feel of the mansions were exciting to see in terms of their environmental design and uniqueness. Each Mansion never failed to make me happy. In the original Luigi's Mansion the singular Mansion wasn't all that spooky tbh. The only thing that made it scary was the ghosts. While in Dark moon, it's the other way around with the mansions being the scariest things in the game.

2:05 So, fun fact about regional game name changes: Kirby. You've probably heard a few, Canvas Curse became Power Paintbrush, Squeak Squad was Mouse Attack, even Super Star was released as Kirby Fun Pack... UNLESS you lived in Australia. We got the Canadian PAL releases, meaning we got NTSC names on a PAL game with the Australian rating system (G, PG, M, etc.). This stopped with the Wii, as we got Epic Yarn with European voice clips, as well as Rainbow Paintbrush instead of Rainbow Curse, and this meant all the Virtual Console releases of the DS titles were the EU versions (and therefore incorrect).
