[QUOTE="nintendofreak_2"]

What's the point of having Luigi in his own game's if he's going to do the same exact things Mario does. :?

TriniPlayer

So what was the purpose in making Luigi's mansion then?

It introduced new mechanics and basically made Luigi's personality as we know it now. Before Luigi's Mansion Luigi was just green Mario.

But in the OP you said that you wanted Luigi to "do all the same things like Mario." So whats the point if it's going to be the same game just with a different character? [spoiler] Galaxy's Luigi run through is exactly what you're asking for. You do realize that right? [/spoiler]

@nintendofreak_2 ok so if you said that the game basically brings out Luigi's true personality on how we know him today,we now know that he isn't the same as his brother mario and you said yourself that before,he was just green mario so why can't we get more games that is based on Luigi ONLY so he can stand out on his own?.Elpooz himself said that each character is unique in their own way and contributes to the mario franchise which i totally agree on.I know what i said about"Luigi doing all of the same things like mario"but it was just to bring up a point,that's all.

[QUOTE="Luigi12901"]

[QUOTE="TriniPlayer"] I just want to know,how in the world do you know that it wouldn't sell as well?You know how many Luigi fans must be waiting for this opportunity to get a game that is based only on Luigi? and not everyone likes to play with mario.TriniPlayer

(Count me in the group of Luigi fans that would kill for this game)

See where i am going with this?,Luigi12901 agrees with me cause just by looking at his avatar,you could see that he is a Luigi fan so that's the point i'm trying to make here.

I am also aHUGEfan of Luigi! count me in the group too! He deserves a good game other than luigi's mansion

His personality won't contribute anything to him running or jumping. :|

I'm all for Luigi having his own games, but they need to be different. Why do you think they stopped making DK games (and the ones that have come out since DK64 have been quite unique).

Take mario and Luigi-Partners in time for example,i personally think that if it wasn't for Luigi,i wouldn't be laughing everytime he did something that is hilarious in some parts of the storyline so i think that contributes within a mario game.

I think a Luigi game would be great!. It would also be cool if the main villain was Wart from SMB2.

Here's something to think about, what if luigi had all the games from the start? Then everyone would be like "why can't mario have his own game?" . So I guess it's almost a good thing that luigi doesn't have is own game. :(

A Luigi game would be different simply because Luigi is Mario's opposite. I don't see how people play the Mario games and don't see that. Mario = serious, committed hero, Luigi = funny, comic relief hero who likes to talkA LOT. That's why Luigi is there people, he isa foil... it's his whole purpose. So a game with him would be way different simply because it would be more comic and less "ima marrio, i a save the princess, a nothing stop me".

He could be doing similar things, but really, in EVERY platformer, the characters jump, run and so on :|. So you could say that it's pointless to make ANY platformer, because we have always had Mario ones. That doesn't make sense. Plus, Luigi has different abilities (ie, different fireballs or fireballs PERIOD - when the hell does Mario even use his? different attacks - play SSB people- and a waaaaay different mindset - play the games that include them both and compare how they approach situations, it is MUCH different).

Why do they always make the sidekick cooler? Tails was better than Sonic and Luigi is better than Mario...

Because the main characters are supposedto be all-business save the day type. The sidekicks are alllowed to have different types of personalities.

What about in Paper Mario Luigi/Mr. L is very funny in the game. I think it would be cool if they made a Luigi game were the Villian was his clone that acted was basically Mr. L then it would be twice as much Luigi (I know Nintendo did it with both Mario Sunshine and Adventure of Link.) They can do it with Luigi's own game. Because both characters are great Mr. L and Luigi. I would also like them in full 3D.

There are a few online Luigi games, but it is pretty unfair when you think about it.

He does have his own game.

It's called Mario is missing for the SNES, PC and the DOS. It is a geography based edutainment game where you have to find certain clues that will lead you to where mario went.

Not a very good game...

Not Nintendo so I don't count it. It's kinda like Hotel Mario, and the CDi Zelda's those aren't made by Nintendo or even Published by Nintendo so I don't think they count. Luigi's Mansion counts since it was developed by Nintendo and Published by Nintendo.

They basically have an RPG set up for him, though it would be corny and a little weird, but thats who luigi is. Paper Luigi and the Waffle Kingdom, or whatever you want to call it, can be easily made with the story of what happened in ttyd. This can be luigis little adventure then he could also get a real platform type game like Luigi's Adventure, kind of like marios game. Luigi is easily the kooler character. his clumsy sort of wimpy ways actually kind of boost his charcter up. Im also really disappointed that the new Luigis Mansion (the only luigi game they ever made turned out to be probably the best gamecube game. Any clues Nintendo) is coming out for 3DS. Wishing it would come out for wii or wiiU,

I'm just happy to have a Luigi's Mansion 2, but I understand what you mean. it would be nice if there was a new platforming game that starred Luigi with Mario taking the backseat, or actually not being present at all.

It would just be a mario game then it's pointless. Mario made the franchise and Luigi is already featured so why not have them both playable under Mario which is the franchise name. Luigi's mansion is unique so that's why it's good for Luigi to get his own unique franchise.
