Luigi’s Mansion
SCORE: 60
I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming
had the money to purchase Luigi’s Mansion on the Nintendo 3DS. The PR
and Marketing folks representing this game were completely
unprofessional to us. Nothing new there to be completely transparent.
This is a port of the Gamecube game. We can now have a second player
with us if we feel like it.
This franchise has bothered me for some time now. Luigi’s Mansion is all
about hunting down ghosts with a vacuum cleaner like device. We run
across possession, a fortune teller, violence, and more in Luigi’s
Mansion. This hand held video game is also pretty dark. It was a real
draining physically and spiritually to play Luigi’s Mansion on the
Nintendo 3DS. I recommend that families steer clear of this demonic
inspired video game.
There are plenty of scary parts in Luigi’s Mansion. There are also areas
that are confusing. I lost track of how many times I could not figure
out what to do next in Luigi’s Mansion. Maybe I needed to hunt down some
more Boo ghosts before the game would trigger the next event. Maybe I
had to clear some room. Luigi’s Mansion can be confusing at times.
The controls in Luigi’s Mansion are really clumsy on the Nintendo 3DS. I
ran into more control issues in this game. It is hard enough trying to
find these ghosts in the dark. Add in not being able to move the right
way at the right time just increased the stress and aggravation. I do
not recall if the Gamecube controls were this bad or not.
I question the rating of Luigi’s Mansion based on the content. There are
plenty of scary parts in this horror video game. How could the ESRB
ignore them and give Luigi’s Mansion a rating of ‘E’ for Everyone six
and older only?
Luigi’s Mansion is a game I never want to see again. I see no reason to
do a video series on this game at this time. Avoid purchasing this game
at all costs.
