What’s Different in Luigi’s Mansion 3DS? ANALYSIS (Reveal Trailer Secrets)

[@pongodecky]

One thing I worried about in the remake trailer was "I hope they don't take away the gameboy horror" and I am very pleased that they still have it.

[@awesomeguy2009]

*demake

[@awesomeguy2009]

Chillin' The 3DS has less detailed/lower resolution textures what are you talking about?

[@awesomeguy2009]

Chillin' It's not a remake though. Assets from the original game are still in the 3DS version like the ghost character models. A remake should have everything be new and look better, not worse. And lower resolution textures can not look sharper on a lower resolution screen. That just makes no fucking sense.

[@TripleJump]

Phantom Drags It's a remake because it's been remade. There are old assets, but some of them have been changed or remade.

[@awesomeguy2009]

TripleJump Yeah but the only reason they introduced new assets is because the 3DS can't handle some of the effects of the original.

[@DanSweeto]

Great analysis guys! Still hoping for a Luigi's Mansion game on the Switch.. one day

[@MattTheMan2708]

Instead, we will get Luigi's Mansion 3 for Nintendo 4DS in 2025. Mark my words.

[@starman5901]

Yh why release that game on that shit console, get a job and buy a 3ds , you had money to waste of that shit switch so u must have money too buy a 3ds kid

[@blockhead1195]

Maybe Luigi's Mansion 3 will be a big boy for 2019 like breath of the wild, and oddysee.

[@starman5901]

the prince of gaming switch is better then 3ds 😂😂😂😂😂😂 u deffo trolling now

[@starman5901]

the prince of gaming shouldn't take drugs mate if you act like this , compare a master piece system to a over rated failure of a hybrid system with old games 😂😂 doesn't even have b/c complitity 😂😂

[@Gannio]

Something I'd like to point out is that in the PAL release of the original Luigi's Mansion, they upped the brightness of all dark rooms in general for the normal mansion playthrough, darkening them to their NTSC counterparts during the hidden mansion. Speaking of which, it's likely they'll include the PAL release's version of the hidden mansion (since the NTSC releases only added damage output from enemies and power to the poltergust, the PAL release flipped the mansion and changed all normal ghosts layouts), but probably didn't get mentioned in the direct since the English VA is the same for US and Europe, meaning Europe.

[@GameXplain]

Good point! A Hidden Mansion would be a good feature. That sounds a bit unfortunate PAL players had brighter room initially though--I feel like that works against the atmosphere the game is going for

[@ethanhawksley9097]

What

[@swineliasthegamer7686]

GameXplain yeah, and you cant know if a room has ghosts or is free of them :(

[@beethreefour]

That's definitely not the case. The rooms were lighter, but not illuminated. They were still quite dark and there was a very obvious difference between a lit room and a room that was still occupied by ghosts.

[@isafex2243]

I have have done an 100% playthrough of the PAL version, including the hidden mansion. And I can say that the upped brightness does not take away anything from the game, it still retains the atmosphere of the other versions and overall I would say is actually a good change. I really do hope they add the PAL hidden mansion though, since the 3DS version looks a little TOO bright. (Not to mention the flipped mansion is awesome).

[@rayflyers]

You guys are so thorough. That's why I'm a subscriber. Keep up the great work.

[@EpicMarioBros]

The appearance of the ghosts in the 3DS version is probably the most disappointing to me.

[@ethaan3164]

EpicMarioBros Yeah. But hey, as they said, it's still in development so Nintendo could change it or give us an option to switch from transparent to full. Hopefully.

[@mandalorian_scum]

If they do change anything while in development please change Luigis walk cycle it’s not the original more better looking one, plus when he’s in stand by position he like snaps instead of gently going back to it.

[@Weareonenation303]

I hear ya. They changed the charming portrait ghosts for some generic ghost designs that are rather dull.

[@burcolclone8322]

same, but hopefully that will change when the game is released. I feel like it will be released somewhere in October so those might be the finishing touches.

[@Nerom99]

IKR. They're better than the Boos from Dark Moon, but it's still a noticeable downgrade...

[@AustinGen]

Luigi's Mansion will finally have the 3D, it was originally supposed to have

[@ew275x]

3ds sold more in 2017 than 2016 and had one of its best Januaries in 2018, that's why the game is on 3ds.

[@cupoftea3499]

Also what luigi's mansion was supposed to be. Luigi's mansion was originally supoosed to be 3d but the technology to make it 3d would have cost more than the gamecube itself, so they didn't do it. Now I understand why I had to waot 6 fucking years for a remake

[@ShaneMGD]

So glad you guys realize it's in early dev too. I see other people thinking it's not and saying it's shit, but they have time to make it better. Maybe not better than the GC version, but definitely better than what we see now. Great analysis guys!

[@RyanChaos.0]

My Gaming Dreams But the whole point of a remake is to make a game better. So if they don’t, they have failed.

[@ShaneMGD]

*insert name here* Not really. A remaster is supposed to make it look better. A remake is just simply remaking the game.

[@RyanChaos.0]

My Gaming Dreams But if it’s not better than the original, what’s the point of remaking it?

[@ShaneMGD]

*insert name here* You can think of many reasons, but I won't get into it. But there are some things that look better such as updated scenery models and better textures.

[@RyanChaos.0]

My Gaming Dreams Yeah, I get that, but it’s just missed potential. It could’ve been on the switch and been 10x better. And it would’ve been portable anyway because it’s the switch.

[@gwbt7184]

Why cant people just be happy were getting a remake of a beloved gamecube classic instead of complaining what system is on, im personally excited for the game and i dont care what system its on

[@juliencapybara]

Because it's a demake as you can see in the video... it won't play neither look as good as the original, which came out 17 years ago. As a big fan of the original LM, I don't see anything to be happy about here. Well I'm lying, this announcement gave me a good reason to play with my GameCube again... this is something to be happy about I guess.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

The game isn't out yet. How do we know it will play worse? Also its more of a port than a demake. Some things look worse, some things look better, IMO.

[@buttcracksniffer74]

Jawdat Barghuthi i will probably collect it for 3ds but i will also get it on gamecube to play dissapointed it didnt go to switch but oh well i think people are complaining because its a meh looking remake

[@Daniel328DT]

Jawdat Barghuthi ikr? Everything has to be switch I guess

[@tropicplaysgames3198]

SuperMarioT well if you have an issue with that, this game is not for you. It's for kids who played dark mon so they can experience the original

[@YuseiTheSynchroHero]

Why is this game not on the Nintendo 5DS XL & Knuckles?

[@leonard3667]

Starring Dante from the Devil May Cry series?

[@jeffzzzz1955]

Does it come with a funky mode

[@jonnylopez6352]

Stop trying to be funny

[@KnightOfTheWind2401]

That’s exclusive to the Definitive Edition HD Remastered

[@mrluigi3531]

Why isn't it on Nintendo Labo?

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Even as a huge fan of the switch, these comments have me very frusturated. Why do people get pissed every time a 3DS game is announced now? What does it matter what system you play it on?

[@crcoghill]

HeavyDonkeyKong because of the "it looks better" "debate" 😧 trust me, I'm atleast giving this a chance and liked Dark Moon, but alot of people are judging a game based on a single, small teaser and Bias from the Gamecube version. Look, i get it! It would look better in HD on the new device, and grant it, the Original is still a great game. But atleast give it a shot before saying it's the worst thing ever.

[@juliencapybara]

Probably because on the 3DS, Luigi's Mansion looks more like a "demake" than a remake... While on Switch it could be improved on everything beside the analog triggers. So yeah, it is a bit frustrating to see this game coming back 17 years later in a version that won't play and won't look as good as the original...

[@AceWerewolf]

HeavyDonkeyKong i really love the 3ds even now. This game is great news. The 3ds is for classic games like this one

[@AceWerewolf]

Julien Clemmen cause people play nintendo games for tje graphics am i right? Lol you casual

[@starman5901]

Julien Clemmen 3ds is far better system of that shitty over rated GameCube, but seeing as u got a switch it's seems you only buy shitty Nintendo systems

[@LX_Splatoon]

This Video feels like a big throwback to the luigis mansion dark moon analysis videos that got me on this channel i enjoyed it even though its an analysis of a remake

[@DemigodSalt]

Even though there are downs to the ups, it's still charming knowing I'm going to get luigi's mansion on the go :3

[@eitan531]

Honestly all I got out of this analysis is how much this should’ve been on the switch!!! Great job though guys. Thorough as always!

[@ddnava96]

I second this. Too much work put into details, so many updates, but everything limited by the 3DS power

[@ellochocon]

eitan0531 it should stay on the 3ds. For people who only own a 3ds and have played Luigi's Mansion dark moon they should get the chance to play the original.

[@XplodMonky]

It would have been cool to be on the switch, but Nintendo creating a new engine for Luigi's mansion would be impractical on the switch when the dark moon engine is readily available on the 3ds.

[@R.J.Crimson99]

Why spend 60 dollars plus dollars on a 5 hour game on a console where Ninty has to spend more money and resources on a new engine when they can use the same engine from the sequel to make the remake on a console with a larger user base and spend 40 dollars plus tax on it?

[@merritt2014]

I would honestly bet real money that this game would sell better on the Switch than the 3ds despite the system's higher lifetime sales. The Switch momentum is just so strong right now to where literally everyone in the industry is trying to get their on game on it.

[@Hisho30]

To be fair, I prefer having Luigi's Mansion for 3DS instead of the Switch. I'm prepared to get some backlash on this, but I want to speak out. While it could, and possibly well, work on the Switch, but the reason it is on 3DS is because of the Dark Moon Engine. As a future programmer, it makes sense because companies these days wants things to be done quicker and easier, and since the Dark Moon Engine already exist for 3DS, it saves them time, money, and energy instead of making a whole new engine for the Switch. So, not only it saves them time, but they could add a few small tweaks that will distinguish the 3ds version from the GameCube. So, while I understand some complains that it should be on Switch, but do understand that the Switch is the main console driving it home. Also, look at some pattern of remakes for the 3ds. Ocarina of Time 3D was a new engine created for the console for its time, and when Majora's Mask 3D was announced, Greezo just used the OoT 3D engine to save time and effort. So, which do you want? You want the game out in months based on the engine it was already created on, or years to create a new engine for the game to be on Switch? The choice is yours. Plus, it makes marketing for Nintendo easier, better, and sells in the thousands.

[@Daniel328DT]

Gerardo Gonzalez The choice is not ours but Nintendo. They can make a sequel

[@Hisho30]

Yes, it is Nintendo's choice to release the game for the 3DS, but I'm referring to those who complain about having it on the Switch. Switch this, Switch that. It is a great console, but it isn't a perfect console. Great mobility, a strong library, but many are complaining about having all the games on the Switch as of right now. The idea of porting ALL 3DS games to the Switch will be a hassle. Again, not putting hate on the Switch, but how people cannot accept Nintendo's choices of certain games on certain consoles. I know people are saying the 3DS should "die" because it was out since 2011, but over a 1000+ games, alongside with a few Third-Party Support, yeah.

[@NintendoTV64]

+Gerardo Gonzalez I actually agree with you wholeheartedly. Even if the 3DS version will be graphically weaker due to the less powerful hardware, Nintendo is releasing this on the 3DS mainly because they can reuse the Dark Moon engine in order to save money and time. This is why Mario Party: The Top 100 was released on the 3DS and not the Switch, Nintendo and ND Cube already had the Island Tour/Star Rush engine at their disposal, why not use that to produce a new game in a reasonably quick amount of time instead of taking years to develop a new engine just for this one game. I wish this game was on the Switch as much as the next guy, but keep in mind that Nintendo isn't doing this because they're lazy, they're doing this because it's more reasonable than taking years to produce a new engine for a remake of an 18-year-old game.

[@Hisho30]

NintendoTV64 Thank you so much! I do what I can to see the situation of the two consoles hand and hand. Your example of Mario Party: The Top 100 is another great example. I didn't see that coming, but still makes perfect sense. Why waste time making a new engine when you already have a perfect engine at your disposal to remake these games. Thank for that wonderful example for Mario Party.

[@NintendoTV64]

You're welcome. I couldn't have said it better myself.

[@chanceaaronblack2792]

Very cool analysis. These are tons of details i simply glossed over at first. Appreciated very much!

[@papermariottydfan1]

as far as i can tell from the trailer the sound effects and voices are the exact same from the original which i am fine with i love that voice work

[@cqllel5186]

I like these Analysis videos. Unlike other reviewers, we aren't watching the same clip replayed over and over in the background while two or more people talk about the game for like 30 minutes! I like it here :3

[@Waylon128]

I'm glad that the dust effect is gone/reduced. It always bugged the hell out of me in the originally.

[@Anonymimus]

My first thought was: Why is this on 3DS and not on Switch?! My second thought was: Hmmm... I've never played Luigi's Mansion due to not having a GameCube. And actually I still really enjoy the 3D effects on the 3DS. ...and now I'm excited to turn on my good 7 year old aqua-blue 3DS once again in order to play a game I've been wanting to play for a looong time. ...and after that I'll probably go ahead and play its sequel while I'm at it. And after I'm done playing LM1 and 2 there might already be an announcement for Luigi's Mansion 3... in HD... playable on the Nintendo Switch. Honestly... why do people always want remakes of something if there's the possibility of a much better new game? And this game might just be Luigi's Mansion 3. So while you're waiting: Enjoy the 3DS port of the original. Enjoy it.

[@S.K.R.E.Inc.]

Anonymimus Luigi's Mansion was supposed to have the 3D effect in 2001, but Nintendo scrapped it due to cost

[@crashpokeschroomman]

inb4 should've been on Switch comments.

[@Monkeyman249]

should've been on Switch

[@cgk1276]

It's true tho

[@ajtriforcegamerofhyrule8538]

Who cares if it's not on the switch

[@MattTheMan2708]

Should've been on Virtual Boy.

[@Manelneedsaname]

Should've been on Virtualboy

[@Blazio]

I've wanted to play this game for so long, and they're making it on my favourite system! YES

[@ryaningram9387]

The ghosts being less transparent really bugs me. The game will also probably be too bright like dark moon. Seriously, why give a flash light you don't need?

[@paraboo5475]

Ryan Ingram Because in the original LM, you need a flashlight to stun most ghosts.

[@ryaningram9387]

Para Boo ...I played the original. The reason why you are supposed to need flashlights is too see in the dark. Good games make better use of their lore and mechanics to blend with the game world. Luigi doesn't carry a flashlight so he can stun ghosts. He carries a flashlight for the same reason you or I need one; to see in the dark. So, if you don't need a flashlight to see, it makes no sense for Luigi to have one. 99% of games that give the player flashlights are because they need them to help see in the dark. The original game benefited from the light to see in dark rooms, whereas dark moon was too bright and you had flashlight for purely gameplay reasons, which is stupid and not immersive.

[@tispoh2643]

But you would need to see when you were in bigger rooms or hallways. I checked the 3DS trailer and it seems dark enough in the hallways where you can’t even see past Luigi into the darkness. In the smaller rooms, it is brighter but that isn’t a big deal when we’re focusing on dealing with the ghosts. Either way, Luigi still has reason to hold on to a flashlight since there are still dark areas.

[@ryaningram9387]

Thomas Perez That's good to hear. And it's probably brighter in hallways because the candles. Either way, it's a tonight buy for me. The 3ds does not do this game justice.

[@JuwanBuchanan]

+Ryan Ingram You serious? You needed a flashlight to stun most of the ghosts, otherwise you had no chance. In fact that was the entire point of the flashlight that Miyamoto stated way back in 2001.

[@FightingMario54321]

I think because the game is in development some small details like the ones you spoke about are missing. I’m sure with how focused on quality in remakes Nintendo is that they will add and polish the remake.

[@IPlay4aReason]

While people are bitching about 3DS/Switch, I’m hoping theres even more content, maybe a revamped mansion in addition to the hidden and regular mansion. Or something ridiculous, like playing as E Gadd. As a hard mode.

[@DJ_Sonic09]

Chuchee Poo um, me?

[@RoundPi]

Welcome to the family!

[@Groblin__]

Della Leavitt It’s because of the Dark Moon Engine on the 3DS. If they’re going to remake Pikmin, they might as well just do it on the Switch.

[@Daniel328DT]

Chuchee Poo I did?

[@iownu92]

"That's really old technology, Luigi", "Someone should really get him a Switch or something". I think that echoes just about everyone's thoughts on the announcement of this remake.

[@Chaos89P]

I didn't think "THIS SHOULD BE ON THE SWITCH!" when I first saw the announcement.

[@mrluigi3531]

He said "just about" tho

[@luckysix1015]

iownu92 not mine, the game was originally going to be 3D why not put the remake on the 3D console.

[@LuigisNo1fan]

luckysix Did you know? That Luigi’s Mansion was tested on the 3DS

[@luckysix1015]

Mario Numbah1 the 3ds wasn't invented when they made Luigi's mansion one.

[@princessnatalie5045]

This really does look amazing and so much fun! I'm a big fan of both Luigi's Mansion games so I can't wait to play this game when it does finally come out. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. 😃

[@TheTJWorks]

Hope they keep King Boo's original look, just like the sequel. I never liked his spin-off designs and never understood why they changed him.

[@TheZebbga]

I think he looks cooler in Luigi's Mansion 2 because he looks more menacing and evil. But I still hope he is kept the same as I still like the original and want the look of characters to stay consistent.

[@benjaminf]

I like his Dark Moon look but I would rather for him to have his original look for this

[@TheZebbga]

Same.

[@doggz2701]

Look at my pinned comment above, it shows his new look.

[@TheZebbga]

Well thank you for that but I am disappointed they used his Luigi's Mansion 2 look. Its not the end of the world though.

[@lakenzie4924]

I don't understand why people can be so upset about it being on the 3DS and not the Switch. It's still the same game no matter what it's on. All the Switch dose is give it a graphical improvement, which is a really small thing in the grand scheme of things.

[@juliencapybara]

The gameplay on 3DS will be really different than the original game... LM was build for the GameCube's awesome controller. Nothing will feels the same on 3DS. So no, it won't be the same game. On Switch neither, but at least some of the gameplay could be preserved there.

[@cgk1276]

In a game like luigis mansion that rely plays on the creepy atmosphere graphics are important. And it's not just graphics the gameplay will be worse without a second c stick

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

The 3ds worked for dark moon.

[@juliencapybara]

HeavyDonkeyKong which was made with the 3DS in mind, not this one.

[@kryzethx]

The controls in Dark Moon were super simplistic compared to the original. They made that game knowing the limitations of the system. They're porting this one while being forced to dumb down the original gameplay for single stick

[@quadfoil]

Great work with your analysis! However..the game is still in development like you said, so some stuff that wasn’t in trailer (example: the metal gate) could be added into the game. Keep up the good work! 👍👍👍

[@mex321]

0:19 Phew for a second there i thought he was serious, i even had to check the video duration. Seriously though, keep up the good work guys.

[@TayoEXE]

I'm getting tired of all the "WHY NOT ON SWITCH" comments. Gee, we didn't even need to get this port, so Nintendo can take it back if you want. Ingrates... Also, for goodness sake, it's a handheld. It won't be as dark for the simple reason that it's on smaller, lower resolution screen. Now people have the opportunity to play it on the go or if they never got the chance to play it. I'm fine with this. What else could a Switch version do?

[@rojoscostanada8685]

Ha the 3ds was made in 2013 and its 2018 5yrs off not as old as the original

[@ZombieZlayer99]

Vipergaming23 you do realise that they had the engine from dark moon plus they wanna still support the massive fanbase on the 3ds that is still growing. Plus they may wanna save the switch for a luigi’s mansion 3 so they have time to develop an engine that’ll work for the switch. You need to remember that if they remade lm for switch that they would have to make a new engine that would take time and could lessen the impact of a new luigi’s mansion if they plan on making a new one.

[@TayoEXE]

Right. Why spend even more time on ports when they've got bigger shoes to fill with new games coming to the Switch? We could very well see a Luigi's Mansion 3 on the Switch, and along the way, we now have both Luigi's Mansions on the 3DS.

[@TayoEXE]

Then tell Nintendo to stop making the 3DS port if you don't want it so much.

[@hermansperman]

I don’t get why evereybody seems to hate that they still make 3ds games instead of only focusing on the Switch, the 3ds is a great console and it deserves to at least get some remakes, the switch had oddysey and botw and the new smash is also announced. I own a Switch but i use my 3ds more, i love my 3ds and it will always be my favourite console. Please let the 3ds get some respect and stop being triggered about new games that only releases on the 3ds. Thank you.

[@diegog1853]

The 3ds version overall looks better in my opinion. Its more colorful when it needs to be, but it still dark when it needs to be dark. My only concern are the ghost and the particle effects, they really look better on the gamecube, i do hope they add them later. But the important question here is, will we see Luigi's hanging shadow on the remake?

[@JoviGoober]

Diego García Barradas i know how to make it even darker... Turn down the 3ds brightness:P

[@lightbrand_]

They probably will fix the hanging shadow sadly... Just as they got rid of all the blood in Ocarina of Time in the 3ds remake

[@diegog1853]

Brambles yeah i know :( my question was meant to be a joke although i would really like the inclusion as an easter egg. But adding that easter egg would be aknowledging the dark nature of that glitch. In other words, is one thing having a suicidal luigi as a glitch and other thing is including it on purpose. But who knows it could still happen, nintendo has done crazy things in the past. Its just very unlikely

[@lemonlime2963]

The dust particles are actually still in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. They appear after a fully charged flash from the strobulb.

[@usermcskull4713]

I don't know why, but the gamecube version of "Luigi's Mansion" looks a bit better. It looks a bit more...dark? How do I describe it?

[@yiha03]

UserMCSkull FormerlyknownasPowerofL Late reply, but it’s the models and textures The original game was so incredibly detailed, just look at the carpets! So much detail in one carpet The game did have a very dark tone to it, using dull colors

[@athing18]

“So I guess that means we’re done here” why am I laughing so much at this hahaha

[@islandmat]

Is no one going to mention the hidden mansion? The game is to short to not include a 2nd run per save file for a 100% play. I did notice that the remade game is considerably darker in hallways (pitch black after a few meters) and whatnot similar to that of the PAL hidden mansion. Which leads me to wonder if there will even be one, or if there is will be a disappointing one like the NTSC one. WILL WE GET A FLIPPED, NEW GHOSTSPAWNS, DARKER HIDDEN MANSION? I sure hope so.

[@ShaneMGD]

The hidden mansion isn't even a big deal, just a short extra after game surprise. I'm pretty sure Nintendo wouldn't spoil that for anyone who hasn't played the game yet.

[@ethanhawksley9097]

islandmat hidden mansion?

[@ShaneMGD]

Ethan Hawksley After you beat the game you'll unlock a new Mansion called the "Hidden Mansion". It's the same one, but hard mode.

[@ethanhawksley9097]

My Gaming Dreams ah

[@islandmat]

Ethan Hawksley well that's the thing, the US had the same but you have a faster vacuum. It's super lame, whereas the regions that came later (PAL) got a flipped mansion, as well as being much darker and all of the ghost spawns being different (harder). In adition you could not get A rank in your first run. The hidden mansion on the PAL Ed had much more treasure.

[@MagentaNimbat]

Now that I think about it makes sense to put this on the 3DS. Wasn’t the original game suppose to be played in stereoscopic 3D at one point. And the game isn’t that long so I wouldn’t see a point to pay full price for a 5 hour game. I think it was a good decision to leave it on the 3DS

[@cgk1276]

3D wasn't meant exclusively for Luigis mansion. It was a peripheral meant for the GameCube. With that logic they should port all their GameCube games to 3DS. Even then 3D isn't a groundbreaking feature anymore, and it's a poor reason to dump this on 3DS.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

It will probably run on dark moons engine. Its an easy port. Why go through the work to port it to switch when they could POTENTIALLY just make a brand new Luigi's mansion game for switch altogether?

[@MagentaNimbat]

CGK Tbh would anyone pay 49.99 for a 5 hour game. I know Luigi’s Mansion wasn’t the only GameCube game to have a feature to play in 3D. Tbh it is really neat to see the game have a feature it was suppose to have

[@hgrbg]

This was really well made. Props.

[@Lakitu1134]

Something really tells me that there's going to be a noticeable difference between playing this game on a normal 3DS versus a "New" one. Hopefully the frame-rate and control options actually make use of the New 3DS's specs/additional buttons.

[@tropicplaysgames3198]

Nice job. I’m so glad that this is coming to the 3ds, one of my favourite games from my childhood, but I really hope they decide to put this on the switch at some point too. I’m not complaining though; it’s still great to see this game come back.

[@ghirahimlefabuleux8984]

I mean, the game was made to be played on a 3D system so why not make a remake to the virtual boy, it is the most relevant Nintendo console to this day and fuck those who say that the system is dead, Nintendo kept the Gameboy, the Gameboy Advance, the DS and the 3DS alive forever after the release of the Switch so I have the right to demand a remake of Luigi's mansion on the Virtual Boy because it should be the top priority for the company at the moment.

[@Thatdudejosh9]

Looking forward to this game! I love luigi’s mansion, and I’m happy it’s being remade. I don’t even mind that it’s on the 3DS (people take it too seriously), but I’m sure Luigi’s Mansion 3 will be on the switch, if it gets made that is.

[@energforce8287]

Not only did this video not show up in my subscription feed, but it also wasn’t listed when I went to your channel page and clicked “videos” KZbin is so screwed up.

[@JoyPad420]

After re-watching the trailer for Luigi's mansion i have a pretty good feeling that there will be c stick use as an option as if you watch closely at the angel that the poltergust spews fire at in the trailer you will notice that when Luigi looks up with while spewing fire he still has full control of how far down he brings it and if you watch the end of the clip you will see the angel he is spewing fire at is not as high as it could be and it stays in that position for a solid second rather than continuing to go up or down, i feel this little thing i noticed could mean there will be at-least an option to use a c-stick or circle pad pro attachment in the game.

[@psilos67]

Can you guys do the Mario & Luigi Bowser’s Inside Story remake for this next?

[@chesphendshil8270]

Notice how there is a timer in the boss fight, and the gold and bronze frames in the boss rush room. You can now set new records and stuff

[@DeeDolp]

I just hope that those long stretched red ghosts still scream when you suck them in “YYYYYEAAAAAAAA” Edit: they’re called Grabbing Ghosts

[@scatlinksean]

You could also shoot via a double-tap, and you could possibly turn the face buttons into a "2nd D-pad" alongside the control stick for twin-stick gameplay. The face buttons can then be moved to the D-pad since that wasn't used in Luigi's Mansion on GCN. If I'm going to play Metroid Prime Hunters; I use the "twin-stick" control scheme which turns the face buttons into a "2nd D-Pad".

[@homerun0508]

I’m just going to say this to the people who are complaining about the people who want it on switch: Yes the graphics are going to be worse and yes the controls will be worse, but honestly that’s not the worst part. The worst part is that now that I have a switch, that’s my go to portable console. I carry the switch most places I go because it’s simply a better portable console than 3ds. I would much rather have it on switch simply because if I’m playing my switch I can have luigi’s mansion, my favorite game keep in mind, with me at all times, in a format that looks and plays better. I don’t want to have to carry around a 3ds as well as with my switch, it just doesn’t make sense. Am I mad it’s on 3ds? Not as much as others, just because I know it probably wouldn’t have happened at all if not on it. I’m just bummed that the opportunity is so clearly lost here.

[@tropicplaysgames3198]

homerun0508 then buy it when it comes out on gamecube vc..........

[@SacredFaerie]

3:00 The GameCube game had two control schemes. I'm pretty sure the movement seen in the sequel and this new 3DS version was the default setting.

[@fabianbenavides2663]

That women has a name Andre, she's called Melody Pianissima. I thought you guys did your research thoroughly, tsk tsk.

[@crazyshark1016]

I think the ghosts may be made transparent in the final version. Look at King Boo when you have a wide shot of his room. You can clearly see a pillar through him so maybe it's only ready for Boos right now. The large mirror also appears to be early in development as the 'low-res' effect is not present when Luigi's foot appears as he passes by the Bathroom mirror. (Room with red ghost) I look forward to this and am definitely going to buy it as soon as it is available as I've always wanted to play this game but never could.

[@SacredFaerie]

The one thing I'm most bothered about is the lion-head redesign in King Boo's room. I'm pretty sure the original was meant to look like Bowser, and the people making the 3DS version didn't realize...

[@heyboss3792]

And I feel like it will be like smash on 3ds where you can toggle how high or low the effects are (like more dust and more detailed ghosts).

[@chimako8773]

I wonder how king boo looks like

[@llaue9600]

probably just the same way he looked in Dark Moon with minor differences

[@JoviGoober]

Chimako The Blue Enderman he looks like a ghost :P

[@flacoxavier]

Thanks for the analysis!

[@ethaan3164]

I don't understand why so many people are saying the graphics are bad. They look fine!

[@ethaan3164]

I do wish the ghosts were transparent, though, as well as the carpet having better textures. Otherwise, I don't see much of a problem.

[@alyxwold4974]

A Socially Awkward Potato ikr

[@benjaminorozco6338]

A Socially Awkward Potato I liked the original, creepy atsmophere I dont like the new bright color scheme.

[@ethaan3164]

Well, the lighting in certain rooms I wish was darker, but the hallways seem a bit more dim than the GameCube version. Or that might be my vision acting up.

[@benjaminorozco6338]

A Socially Awkward Potato your right but it has the dark moon textures and the game didn't have the creepy feel to it.

[@chezi34]

The flatter and more solid color textures are probably just pre-release textures that will be replaced in the full release. Also the mirror looking “like a low-res TV screen” isn’t due to the Mirror’s limitations, it’s just the distance between the objects in the mirror and the 3DS screen. It’d most likely look more like the real Luigi and ghosts if they were to mover closer to the mirror.

[@cherubin7th]

Im ok that it is on the 3DS. But LM 3 should be on the switch, would be so awesome.

[@RoachCatJr]

cherubin7th i heard it will be

[@DTheAustralian]

cherubin7th hey, guess what!

[@rh88841]

Wish granted

[@NonononJacuzzirayProductions]

cherubin7th wish granted woooo

[@athing18]

The little Luigi sprite on the map should have a walking animation, or maybe even jumping while performing actions on the main screen 😋

[@mrhyrule3626]

Everyone in the comments complain "Why is not on Switch" because is not supposed to be on the Switch. I like it on a 3DS better. This is also happened for Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga+Bowser Minion everyone complained about that too. What is going with you people?

[@mrhyrule3626]

Maybe they update in a later date and also true i like the GC better than the 3DS

[@captain_swaggin4065]

Omar Royal Gaming Nintendo needs to support the switch, not an older console. I understand them still supporting the 3ds but at least give the switch more games

[@francesco8572]

Greentiger_420 nintendo is milking the switch worse than a cow, tf you are talking about.

[@captain_swaggin4065]

Francesco Bertini making a remake is more of a reason to get the switch, not a console that’s been out for years

[@francesco8572]

SuperMarioT their reason is over- exagerate, you guys are having the best shit in the switch, aren't you guys sayisfied yet? We 3ds players are having only remakes, and you switch fanboys are angry because the remakes will not come out in your switch. Sometimes I think they're right when they say that the nintendo fanbase can be cancerous.

[@DeadlyManner07]

Can we get Chuggaconroys impression of the grabber ghosts in the game please? Thank you.

[@pokeleoantiqua7326]

DeadlyManner YES😂

[@noobtaco7016]

DeadlyManner OMG, Yes xD

[@metashade4218]

I do hope they bring back the strobe-light flash thingy (forgot what it's called) from Dark Moon. That was such a useful mechanic in that game & it would be perfect if they brought it back for this remake, whether it be a mechanic you get from the start or as an unlockable, not to mention it was very satisfying to use with the way you flash multiple ghosts at once & then capture them all at once.

[@MahNamJeff]

That is still possible but instead you turn on your flashlight to do it

[@Gamesforus1]

Meta Shade The Strobulb was only included because of the move to handheld, so we might see it again, but I doubt it since this remake is going for authenticity.

[@cgk1276]

The strobe light was just a flashlight you had to charge up the original flash light works fine

[@jacobradabaugh6241]

This is gonna be a plain ol' flashlight. Adding the strobulb would make the game too easy since ghosts are almost always visible except for in a select rooms in Luigi's Mansion for GCN.

[@screamsofpasssion1065]

God I hate the Strobelight

[@dylandesselle8356]

I wonder if the shadow of Luigi hanging from a noose will be in the game

[@lifeofthannerpeace5056]

still waiting for the mario tennis analysis

[@ElPate90]

Thats nothing... still waiting for the Mario Odyssey Analysis

[@tipoomaster]

The Gamecube holds up shockingly well, but then the 3DS wasn't really a cutting edge chipset even at launch date. ARM9 and ARM11 in 2018, kind of wild.

[@Kittenfox_55]

I might get this game

[@ZipplyZane]

Uh, you could use the main stick to control aiming in the first game, too. I almost never used the C-stick: Only in one or two placeswhere I needed to aim up, and in the final boss battle. Only thing I want is a way to toggle the flashlight instead holding it down. Spinning in place works better most of the time, anyways, and means you can always actually see what you are doing.

[@luxerhusku2609]

I like my Switch too, but these fanboys always whine when a new game isn't coming to the system. The Switch doesn't need every god damn game for Christ sake...

[@forfeited4626]

Luxer Husku it's not that people don't want games for 3ds it's just that LM was made for a home console system and putting it on a handheld will just water down the whole experience

[@CoreyHades22]

Forfeited So was Ocarina of Time, and that got a remake on the 3DS. Which aside from the visuals I liked better due to how much easier it was to aim with the gyro scope and added touches. Majora's Mask was a home console game that got a remake. And for who knows, maybe when you start you'll get a prompt saying "Which control style do you prefer Original (for those who have the New 3DS or have the 2nd analog attachment) or Dark Moon? But for me a remake of Luigi's Mansion for the 3DS makes sense since this way we'll be playing the game the way it was intended. Even still the mansion looks creepier then the GameCube version, and our boy Luigi doesn't look as creepy in the 3DS version then the GameCube version.

[@buttcracksniffer74]

Luxer Husku it shouldve been for both 3ds and switch as alot of switch owners dont have a 3ds nintendo screwed that up but oh well

[@forfeited4626]

CoreyHades22 those were n64 remakes so it was a lot easier to make them control and look better unlike LM. I'm not saying this doesn't have better elements than the original but I can't help but feel somewhat disappointed when a remake looks only slightly better than the original and it's controls seem not as good

[@Sam-se5vs]

Jonathan yousir that makes no sense.

[@Time_Fire199]

I’m super excited to get this remake! Luigi’s Mansion is a fantastic game!

[@slobertooth1358]

Incoming "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHY IS THIS NOT ON SWITCH REEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Honestly I'm glad it's on the 3ds.

[@jacobradabaugh6241]

You don't have a Switch I suppose?

[@SchwickFAFO]

Probably means you don’t own a switch

[@slobertooth1358]

RadJacob No I own a switch

[@cgk1276]

>being glad it's on a worse console Being okay with it is one thing but happy that it's on an inferior system?

[@slobertooth1358]

CGK I don't give a fuck what system it's on as long as I can play it I'm fine. I don't have a gamecube but I have watched lets play's on it. Sure it's a shame some of the smaller details are gone but that won't hinder my enjoyment of it. And I'm personally more of a handheld gamer so it's perfectly fine for me that it's on the 3ds.

[@Area2BossBogmire]

The pictures in the music room were originally Portrait Ghosts that the devs were thinking of putting in the game. Now it seems like they've been switched with Blue Twirlers.

[@ink_blot25]

Hey here's an idea: Just BUY a GameCube and a copy of Luigi's Mansion! It doesn't go for that much now

[@wiiknight678]

caz_ cina not everyone owns a GameCube/early wii version

[@ink_blot25]

wiiknight678 Yeah but you can find a GameCube or Wii online or in a discount game shop. Certainly for much cheaper than what this remake will be priced at

[@wiiknight678]

caz_ cina true but since technically mario is aimmed towards kids it really woudent seem fair to say just buy it online that and the fact a small game like this is portable is what this version appeal is

[@ink_blot25]

wiiknight678 I suppose it would be easier for parents to buy their kid the remake, especially if they've already got a 3ds for them at this point (obviously!)

[@couchgamingnews9379]

caz_ cina that's dumb since most people have and want it on the switch with more decent controls and graphics than the 3ds

[@Gear_Storm]

I didnt know you could control your suction power/element output in the original game! And I love that game to death!

[@cgk1276]

The game wasn't designed for a handheld system. There's no level, structure, dual sticks, and the graphics are mixed in terms of whether they're better/worse. Stop telling people that wanted this on Switch that they aren't being reasonable.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Dark moon was on 3ds

[@cgk1276]

Golden Mao Golden Mao the 3D peripheral was meant for the whole system, not just Luigi's mansion. The game wasn't specifically made with 3D in mind, it was just the game they got the prototype working on. Just because it's an easy port doesn't mean it's a good one

[@thevenom2731]

The game is still in production so all these problems could be fixed.

[@cgk1276]

Golden Mao why would I be happy about a remake that's worse than the original? The portability aspect could've been covered by GC virtual console on Switch. The biggest addition we're getting here is boss rush, which is just a lazy addition to have the guise of added content.

[@thevenom2731]

And another thing if GameXplain hadn't pointed it out you probably would have never noticed.

[@sillygoose2330]

Chauncey's (the baby ghost) gold portrait has changed from a weird pastel art to looking like a photograph.

[@whyshouldi1943]

can we pls stop critizing the remakes graphics when its not come out yet

[@whyshouldi1943]

justiceloa who are u say that and yes there is a good chance it will change cause its not complete

[@whyshouldi1943]

justiceloa i dont think u know how game development works

[@whyshouldi1943]

justiceloa who are you to say it wont change have u seen the latest build of the game do u work at nintendo no u dont and i still dont think you know anything bout game development

[@whyshouldi1943]

justiceloa yes especially if its a remake on the 3ds

[@whyshouldi1943]

justiceloa u never know it might be

[@revenile]

Obviously there's a lot of time left for polish before the game comes out, but I'm thinking part of the change to the ghost is mainly for visibility on the smaller 3DS screen. While I could see them return to being more see through, I don't think they'll get the glow back, it might make the game not look as good with the smaller screen and 3D. I'm sure the light beam will get an upgrade, the one in Dark Moon looks pretty good. I can only wonder what more they could have done with bringing it over if this was exclusive to the New 3DS. Either way as someone who hasn't played the original, I'm psyched for this.

[@gurpreetbhamra9752]

I am happy, because i never played the original version!👻👻👻👻

[@magoo2133]

When you took a closer look at the differences between the flashlights, am I the only one that noticed the way that Luigi hold the flashlight in the 3ds version?

[@jumponeverything]

This seems more like a demaster to me when looking at the quality of ghosts and dust.

[@MrGojira95]

As much as I appreciate Nintendo for remaking a classic game, I feel like I'm now a purist for the original Luigi's Mansion. I don't hate Dark Moon or how this remake looks. But they're not capturing the feeling I had with the original. I remember my bro, who loves the original game as well, telling me to give Dark Moon a chance, but when we played it, even my bro who said to give it a chance told me he was underwhelmed. To this day, I still play the original game because of how well done its presentation is. But I'm still glad that kids today will play the game my bro and i grew up with, even if it's in a smaller console.

[@Beetlejuice_Sam]

Judging by seeing the X button icon at 4:45, the control scheme is the same as Dark Moon, except for the Y button, which could be looking with the Game Boy Horror!

[@ShyGuyXXL]

What's the argument that this SHOULD be on 3DS and not on Switch? That you have a map on the bottom screen? Who gives a fuck though? Do people just have no sense of direction at all? It's a mansion, not a maze. If it was on Switch it would look amazing, you'd have dual analog controls, it would still be portable... and it's not like you can't still view the map in the menu if you REALLY need it.

[@slaster8063]

ShyGuyXXL cry more

[@ShyGuyXXL]

+Slaster Good argument.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

They dont need to build a new engine. They have dark moon.

[@ShyGuyXXL]

+HeavyDonkeyKong By that logic Kirby Star Allies should be on 3DS as well. Or they could actually put in the effort and make a new engine. Besides, there are a ton of differences between how Dark Moon plays and how Luigi's Mansion plays. So the time they spent tweaking the Dark Moon engine to run like the first game they could instead spend on making a new engine on Switch. 3DS games just aren't exciting anymore. And nobody even uses the 3D effect anymore.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Kirby was a new game. Luigi's mansion wasnt. They might want to wait until they potentially release a new game on switch to build a brand new engine around that game.

[@JamesDoherty-bu7rx]

[@dinulucaciu8462]

As soon as I found out it's coming out on 3ds i pre-orderd it. luigis mansion is the best game I've ever played on my GameCube besides super mario sunshine. which got me wondering wouldn't it be cool if they make a remake of mario sunshine for 3ds? I would definitely pre-order that

[@SmithSmithery]

I'll definitely appreciate this remake. It'll be nice having both of the Luigi's Mansion games on my 3DS.

[@Chase64Cubed]

The only thing that might be missing from this is the Dancing Portrait Ghosts have 70 HP when Luigi attacks them. This is conjecture, but bosses either have less HP, or Luigi did 30 damage before that scene in the trailer.
