I always felt so bad for Luigi. The lower his health, the weaker he calls for his brother, until his voice is cracking with desperation and what is only assumed to be pain.
This hurts my soul
High health: Mario?
Medium health: M-Mario??
Low health: MAAAARIOOOOOOOOOO???!!!!!
I got Luigi's Mansion was I was 5 or 6 I remember being so scared that I couldn't play it that Christmas. 2-3 years later I decided to brave the ghostly mansion a second time with a stronger will and better skills.
A few moments I can remember like they happened yesterday.
1. Seeing Neville for the first time. Every portrait ghost seemed to have this powerful presence, they knew Luigi was there but they weren't afraid of him. With Neville being the first he left quite an impact on me. Every other room up to that point was chaotic, multiple ghosts chasing you, never being able to stand still. But the Neville's room was relaxed, there was just one ghost in there, but he was stronger than anything I had faced up to that point.
2. The Blackout:
At the age of 8 I still hadn't mastered playing this game, and I was nervous every time I entered a dark room. So when that blackout happened I was terrified. I had to go all the way back in the dark, fighting boards of ghosts the whole way. The sense of relief I felt after turning the lights on was amazing.
3. The basement:
Reaching the basement was a huge accomplishment for me, I had overcome all the trials and was getting closer to King Boo. But the basement seemed so terrifying, it's a dark place where the sun doesn't shine and the exit is so far away. It didn't help that I was afraid of my own basement in the dark. But once I got down there I was greeted with some of the most interesting rooms and ghosts in the entire game.
Overall Luigi's Mansion is a very emotional game for me, I'm not sure there is any game I remember more than this one. Every room and ghost is so deeply engrained in my mind, I can picture everything like I'm experiencing it right now. It's an amazing and should be held up as one of the greatest Nintendo games of all time, at least in terms of atmosphere and immersion.
Although I love dark moons more comedic approach which made sense since it was targeted towards younger audiences. The creepy atmosphere of the original is perfect. Everything about it was off-putting in a creepy way. Luigi humming made him as a character more believable, since it is in human nature to do something comforting when scared, like humming. It’s so cool
I really love the “creepy aura” in Luigi’s Mansion, too. It’s a feeling I’ve never felt from any other game, and it’s absence from Dark Moon was probably one of the reasons why I couldn’t enjoy it as much as other people did. I haven’t gotten much far in Dark Moon, but, despite my dislike for the mission system, change in tone, etc, I still think it’s a pretty darn good game. 3 looks like it’ll follow something along the style of Dark Moon, but I’m still excited for it, and I’m glad that they’re keeping the series alive.
I feel exactly the same way.
I get what you mean, but I feel like 3 is a step in the right direction, there seems to be ghosts with unique personalities, like that movie director ghost, but I don't think it will have the same level of spook.
I believe 3 exists.
Sans the Skeleton morty was amazing. We need more ghosts like him for future entries
it isn't creepy. wacky and bizarre atmosphere, yes. super unique and charming game, yes. but it's more funny than scary. unless you're 6 or below I can't imagine this game scaring anyone
While wandering the halls i kinda theorized about the portrait ghosts being one big family and figuring out their connections and how they died. Especially the toy soilders, bogmire, and the genie cuz they were odd balls. Then i tried to figure out who owned the actual house haha. Course i know now that king boo owns it and it just randomly appeared. But i liked to picture the ghosts alive and being a family and stuff
That’s a really cool idea!
Wait you mean they aren’t related?
I always thought they were
@@squishmallow5250 same
@@squishmallow5250 Some of them are part of a family, some of them are not. E gadd. says he collected them from "around the world" so it makes sense that not all of them would be from one family
There were 4 rooms that always caught my interest in the game: the Anteroom, the Ballroom, Clockwork room, and Tea room. They always felt so immersive and I could imaging each portrait ghost using those rooms on a daily basis.
That "painting of the mansion" you mentioned in the intro is actually a photograph!
Wait that's illegal. That means someone took a picture of the mansion before it was made.
@@crabking3525 its a haunted mansion, anything is possible
Holy Crap I thought I was the only person that was so amazed about the little things games have to offer. Specifically Luigis mansion. It's just so different from any other game I've ever played. It's just so unique.
In Conker's Bad Fur Day I had the same moment where I wanted to explore areas that are off limits. I think it was in the catfish/cogs level (I don't remember the name). I've reached the top of the tower and looked at the lush environment, which is actually just a painted skybox. I could see all the locations where the events of the game take place. I knew I will visit them all eventually, but I just wanted to jump off the tower and start exploring everything beyond these areas. And yes, these backgrounds are literally taunting curious gamers. It was so much more interesting to me than what the actual game had to offer.
Great video once again.
Same
One thing that really had me annoyed and interested at the same time is why is there a B button on the top of the windmill
I used hacks in emulator to fly to there but pressing the B button in there does nothing
I wish people could investigate that
I loved the blackout, especially how it affected the mansion. You no longer had that sense of safety in the places that you previously made safe. There's something memorable about that whole event.
I was born in the late 64 era, early GameCube, so I used my uncle’s GameCube (my uncle used to live at my family’s house) and I occasionally revisit the game. Every time I do, I get that type of nostalgia you get when looking at pictures of you as a really young child, like you faintly remember doing it. One thing I always did in Luigi’s mansion when I was really young was (even though by then I knew the mansion was an illusion) imagine the people-like ghosts actually living in the house. I found the house sort of like an apartment, but everyone was related and everyone lived together, but you can imagine the rest of that. I also, especially around the time that dark moon was released when I was 9 or 10, drew my own mansions on paper and labeled the rooms and stuff, like the gameboy horror map, and imagined playing them . Occasionally, cleaning out my room, I find these drawings, and It brings back so many good memories. Thank you, whoever is reading this for reading this long. This is by far the longest comment I’ve ever left
How intricate were the mansions?
Luigi's Mansion was the first game i've ever played,i loved just exploring the mansion after beating it,hoping i would get a secret boo or something,i love this game,the graphics aged really well,King Boo was the only character that ever legit scared me,i love this game soo much,basically,a masterpiece.
TheKeitaNobodyAskedFor Me two!
Same, for some odd reasons I have nightmares from the game or dreams but hey, it a fantastic nostalgia game to enjoy!
I loved luigi's mansion with all the ghosts and secrets! I do hope the 3rd game is great!
that is my number one thing im most excited for this year. (please dont be section based like the second)
2nd one was eh i liked the first one more
Guys, the ghost that was supposed to be in the safari room, in an issue with Nintendo power, the boss was going to be unbeatable, SEVERELY HARD and unable to catch (its true!!!)
@Alpha Stunna I have like 10 times
Join the club!!!
Luigi's Mansion is by far, my favorite game of all time. I love it so much. My brother and I got the game when I was 8, (so 2003) and it was of course one of the first games we had on the console. I was so frightened of the game, I wouldn't dare play it by myself for years. I remember writing in the game manual "Don't play this game in the dark or by yourself, you will pee yourself!" But of course, I was 8, give me a break. Bogmire was truly the things that gave me nightmares, he was the scariest thing in the entire game. Everyone else had personality and was fun and had a human form. But he was just a goopy blob of terror. I remember my father had a friend over as my brother was playing the game, and he had gotten to Bogmire (for the 3rd time) and I ran to him for safety, but they were nowhere to be found. I was certain that Bogmire had taken them lmao. Now, as a 23 year old, I have him, Luigi with his Poltergust 3000, and Madame Clairvoya along with various gems and keys tattooed on my arm because of all the fond memories I have of this game.
I loved pulling out the GameBoy Horror and examining everything to get Luigi's opinion on all the objects
I made a Discord server for this exact purpose because I thought I was the only one who did this
Love the nostalgia this game gives me. This and the Animal Crossing on the Gamecube were staples for me. Loving it. And cool you left a timestamp in your house like that, Swanky. Keep up the fun and nostalgia. God bless yours and you! :)
I wish they would model the new games off of the original Luigi's Mansion instead of what they've done instead. The original Luigi's Mansion had so much more character, but the new ones just seem more targeted towards a younger audience (which is understandable, but it keeps Nintendo from capturing that same eerie feeling of the original). I just wish they would at least bring back the idea of painting ghosts, instead of having giant, nearly generic boss ghosts. The rooms could use some work, too. I think the room layouts of the original game were better than the ones in Dark Moon. Hopefully the new game helps capture those same feelings. Especially since the Switch is many times more powerful than the GameCube
"New ones" dude there is 1 game after LM1 and the next one didnt even give is that much gameplay so far
@@wazzup9179 I guess he is referring to the trailer, even though there isn't a lot of gameplay by just looking at the trailer I can say the atmosphere it's not as good as the first one
Good news, they’re bringing back Portrait ghosts
i play all lm since the first in gamecube,i hate dark moon,because all ghosts are generic,and not have darkness and fear
like first,why luigi's mansion 3 is similar to dark moon? wtf,fans of the luigi's mansion only got a remake for 3ds,i buy lm3 but,i not enjoy this game to 100%,we need some from luigi's mansion gamecube,not generic ghosts,no one play the final game,i hear this game is so long but,i sure,what not have nothing from original luigi's mansion he looks like dark moon on switch but with news.
Well Dark Moon's different structure made sense given it was a 3DS game. The different structure worked better for portability.
But the new one seems to follow in the Original's footsteps much more closely since it's also on a home console. Hopefully it fixes some of the problems the original had, since it did have some pretty major issues.
My parents also did work on the house that involved opening up a wall when I was a kid. I hid a Metallica CD in the wall.
thecianinator what the CD ok?
Just one thing about the game:I hate that electricity running out part.
Whaaaaat? That was my favorite part!
I gotta admit, it really spooked me back then ^^;
@@SwankyBox well uh,ghosts get 2x harder and there are too many ghosts only in one room and those choking ghosts made me rage.
you have to dont fight, just shine them as you walk by
Yeah, that part used to scare me as a kid. Thankfully, in future playthroughs, I remembered that the mirrors teleport you back to floor one, not far away from the generator. So, to make it a lot easier, I just looked for the nearest mirror; I think there’s a bathroom on the lower floor. If so, that’s what I’d always use. Hope this helps. Have a nice day, y’aaallllll!
Yee haw.
Honestly, I'm happy I can finally see someone who actually cares about Luigi's Mansion!!!!
I do... I care too
@@stardj7373 yes! Thank you!
I care too because Luigi mansions the best I wish other people played it
@@starlordanimations106 Yea!!!!
Its always been one of my favorite games, even though I could never beat it as a kid
I loved the secret rooms in Luigi's Mansion. Although they were optional, I never thought about leaving the treasures in these rooms behind. Sue Pea and her upside-down room was so cool to me as a kid. Bogmire terrified me when I was younger and I remember many a nightmare I used to get had Bogmire in it. I really like the second area the most because that's when the game truly feels open and it contains Biff Atlas, Miss Petunia, Nana, Slim Bankshot, Henry & Orville, and Madame Clairvoya, and Boolossus. Some of my favorite ghosts not in Area 3 are Melody Pianissima, Shivers, the Clockwork Soldiers, Vincent Van Gore, and Sue Pea.
The Aesthetic of the entire game was the best thing ever. To be honest I feel like the game was more entertaining with the creepy ghosts and the disturbing faces that Luigi makes in the game. It’s something that Dark Moon lacks. The dark aura in the first game was replaced with bright, clumsy ghosts and the sense that something is missing. Call me a buzzkill but I think that The first game was better because it was dark and miserable, I seemed to enjoy it that way. What I also enjoy from the game is the sense that, even if you have all the rooms cleared, you don’t feel safe. The game was made so well that I’d usually just get lost over how great the game was.
I hear Luigi’s Mansion 3 developers is taking negative feedback from Dark Moon, and they’re bringing back the aesthetic of the first game (Portrait Ghosts, Darker color, No more “pixelating after every mission” so you can explore as you please, better puzzles etc.)
I’m replaying both LM and Dark Moon in celebration of the release of the third game coming out soon.
The third is 100% Dark Moon style though
It must be good of god plays it
Lol
You talk about all of these GameCube era games, and it just reminds me of my childhood trying to explore the far reaches of Sonic Adventure DX’s hubs and levels as well as my days spending hours on the phone with my cousin talking about some random glitch we found in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and how we felt like geniuses finding off camera secrets that we could never actually access. Those worlds became part of my world as a child, and I don’t think many games nowadays can replicate that feeling. And yes, my childhood experience was limited to Sonic games because, as a kid, I ignorantly only care about Sonic and only wanted Sonic games.
But with that said, Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey have been the only recent games that reinvigorated that sense of adventure and wanting to explore everything that I had as a child. As a kid, the worlds of Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 were as big and as real to me as the worlds of Mario Odyssey and BOTW are to me now. I never thought I would feel that same feeling from a game ever again, but those two games felt like a constant adrenaline rush of adventure and new discoveries. I will forever play these games until I’ve found everything, like I did with those games from my childhood. It’s a shame that no recent Sonic games have been able to replicate that feeling for me like Odyssey and BOTW have. I hope there’s a new Sonic game like that one day.
Someone saying they were a kid when luigis mansion came out makes me feel so old lol
It came out when I didn't exist.
As a kid, I sometimes turned all the switches in my old House of, grabbed my flashlight and played Luigi's Mansion by myself. I also had a Chest in which I putted my Room key. I also used all the other house keys to play a Luigi/Zelda adventure.
Seeing the Mansion years later, in a more technical way, is interesting. As a kid, I just saw what the game wanted me to see, but now with all the discoveries you showed us, it makes the game so much more interesting. I'm always excited to see Videos about my first ever played games.
Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Sunshine and The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker are my first ever played Nintendo games. I spend many time playing with my sister and my friends the events of these games.
I think that's enough nostalgia for now, but it's always nice to remember these things from my childhood. And it's all thanks to you Swankybox. You make me remember the great times from my childhood.
I just recently found my Gamecube which I thought was lost for about 5 years now, and got around to playing Luigi's Mansion again after 10 years. A lot of the things that spooked me as a kid still put me on edge today
I have discovered something strange while I was playing Luigi's mansion during the blackout if you go back down the well and go to the alter you will notice that king boo disappeared then when you turn back on the power and go back to the alter king boo will be back. So the question is where did king boo go during the blackout?
The moment you mentioned the campfire, I remembered your pixel portal video about phantasy star and how you met others at that beach in these specific events (:
So yeah, I like how your pixel portal format. It's like a nostalgic journey through your childhood
I hope Luigi mansion 3 is like the original
Just got home from school so happy that when I get home swanky uploaded a new one
1:39 waluigis mansion confirmed
Fun fact, (of the variety no one else than me finds interesting) Luigi's mansion is the only game I used to own for the game cube that I can actually remember. It sticks out to me because of this one even when my little brother woke me up in the middle of the night to play it. I didn't notice until my dad woke up all cross.
try as I might, I can't remember any other ones, though I know we had more...
PhemSee ---> FemC?
But first, let's talk about paranormal universes.
1Thunderfire Cum
6:15 That's one of the things I love the most about Luigi's Mansion 3. It took the strange building to a whole new level... or 20 levels. Each floor kept becoming more crazy and paranormal. Really showing off that this is a magical building created by ghosts,
while the very first mansion seemed more realistic aside from this single room.
When I was 5 or six my brother gave me his old gamecube. It had originally 5 games, and the ones I played the most was Super Mario Sunshine and Luigis Mansion. I remember being terrified by the floating candle in the hallway on floor 1. I was soo scared that I stopped playing, only to comeback to the mansion a few years later. The memories of this game will always be a highlight of my childhood.
I really like when you do these kinds of videos about your personal and imaginative experiences with video games, and the interest in unused content, lore, and mysteries within them. It’s something that I can really relate to. When I have a favorite game that I can just play over and over, like Wind Waker, Luigi’s Mansion, Undertale, etc, I become completely obsessed with wanting to know everything about that game as possible, whether it’s even in the game or not.
A good example of what I’m talking about is the discovery that you can kill the Forbidden Woods boss in Waker with Forest Water, or the beta version of Pokémon Gold and Silver being found out of nowhere, which took over a decade to find. You have no idea how I felt when I found out about that stuff! It’s stuff like that, the mystery of the unknown, the thought that a game you’ve played for years has been hiding something under your nose for so long, when you thought you knew everything there was to know about it, is so interesting. And the discovery itself feels like that long lost excitement you feel on Christmas morning.
6:34 for years I thought she had huge lips and buck teeth.....
Man, the way you described this game is literally exactly how I feel about this game. It's a home in the comfort of my home, or anywhere I want to take the game. I'm glad to find someone else who loves it so dearly. Thanks for the awesome video!!
man i love luigi's mansion. dark moon was okay but the personality of the portrait ghosts and the mansion will always have something i long for which will the bring me back to playing the game. one of the rooms i remember the most is the room that melody owns, the music room. I often wish there was more to the game or that dark moon was like the orignal but i know that will never be possible.
I can agree that Dark Moon isn't ad great as the first game, seeing as they kinda went ham on the strings instead of going for a soundtrack similar to the first. The gameplay was better in some aspects, but could have benefited from being released on the New 3DS. But, there's one thing that the game does better than the first which is objectively true.
*They. Fucking. NAILED Luigi's personality in the second game.*
Luigi's does play a big part of my childhood as well. It was the first game I've ever seen played by my mom, and the sequel (Dark Moon) was the game I spent the most time on my 3DS. With Luigi's Mansion 3 coming to the Switch, I'll be ready to experience the ghostly atmosphere yet again...
My favourite rooms throughout the Mansion is the nanas room, the twins room, the Observatory and many more, to be honest, I love almost all of the rooms because they give you gloom and dread when you first discover them! :)
I will love Nintendo’s mysterious puzzles throughout the mushroom kingdom, but Luigi Mansion is my favourite game because it shrouded in mysterious puzzle, and my favourite game character, Luigi, adventures throughout the Mansion to find his kidnaped brother
So heartwarming
And I love the charming world of Nintendo and Mario’s universe itself
Swanky, you and me are Luigi's Mansion soul brothers! Just the way you described your experience with the game resonates so much with me. It really is another world in that mansion. I have such a clear and grand vision for a "true" sequel to the first game... If only...
Now that I watched the whole video - I also felt like the graveyard area was very mysterious. The most interesting room for me was the one down in the basement where everything was cold, and there were ghosts that wore these big fleece coats, and the ground was slippery from the ice. IIRC you gain a power down there, I can't remember if it was fire or ice powers. But those frozen rooms always felt so different from the rest of the mansion.
Anyways, great video SwankyBox!
1. The room is Cold Storage.
2. Only one ghost, Sir Weston.
3. The ice element medal is found in the tea room, while the fire medal is in the room next to The Fortune Tellers' Room (I forgot the name)
Sorry, I just have an OCD about misstatements of things I know are wrong.
I love your perspective. I think/feel the same way.
I always loved the balcony overlooking the woods where the crying toad is. I too wanted to go out and explore it. That coupled with the mysterious piano melody behind it, it was a place for me to just sit at and imagine.
I really Love your Luigi’s Mansion videos, because I Love how you get all the scenery and such from one of my favorite games ever made and let the viewers just view upon points of the game we couldn’t access, like on the roof, or the exterior of the mansion, and so much more.
Luigi’s mansion will always be one of my favorite games. The atmosphere is the best.
your editing and quality of video always amazes me.
also, exploring the exterior of the mansion is kind of cool, i definitely recommend taking a look at that video.
So happy Pixel Portals are back! This was always one of my biggest Pixel Portals! I remember late nights playing Luigis Mansion, just wandering and exploring! Thank you for this awesome video SwankyBox!
Luigi's Mansion was one of the greatest games for me when I was a kid. I would spend hours trying to beat the game without taking damage, scowering every room, checking every nook and cranny of the haunted mansion because I always believed that if you got every single treasure, you would get an S Rank Mansion, which of course isnt possible. I always imagined an S Rank mansion would be the A Rank Mansion but golden. Man, Luigi's Mansion was a good game...the remake for 3ds will be a bullet of nostalgia.
Luigi’s mansion was by far one of my favorite games as a kid & it gives me nostalgia like no other... but it also used to scare the CRAP outta me 😂 especially during the black-out part
You perfectly summarized the feelongs this game puts off.
These feelings are kinda the games downfall tho, since Dark Moon (and 3 by the looks of it) is just too friendly, not attempting to be creepy at all, like a Looney Tunes parody of a Dracula movie.
Hopefully the remake doesn't change too much, only adding minor charm that doesn't break the pacing of the game. And I SWEAR TO GOD IF THEY DO THE DARK MOON THING AND DROWN THE SOUNDTRACK IN STRINGS.
I used to be scared of this game lmao. I never could finish it when I was younger but as an adult I play it religiously. I have the exact same feelings you do.
Can’t wait if Luigi’s Mansion 3. I hope it combines elements of 1 and 2. I liked the multiple mansions but didn’t like the missions structure. I hope it’s just one big mansion to explore.
It sorta looks like multiple mansions made into one hotel. Which sounds badass
The way you were smiling through this video just showed how much you loved that game and was really
Heart warming to show how much this game meant to people.
I would live to get a Luigi's mansion remake and see some of these cut items that make an appearance in the real complete deal
It's amazing how much you can get out of one game how every little detail resonates with you as it does
(6:43) So fun fact about the Fortune Teller's room, I believe she is a reference to Madame Leota, a ghostly medium from Disney's Haunted Mansion. But Fortune Tellers in haunted houses are popular in media because they have historical roots in the Victorian Spiritual Era. Many people during those times sought to seek out spirits and ghosts in their homes, and often used Mediums and Fortune Tellers to contact entities, (even creating Seance Circles, dedicated rooms to summoning spirits.) So it makes sense that the former owners of Luigi's Mansion would have a special room for this reason. I like how they used it as a goal in the game, to collect Mario's lost items to find where Luigi's brother was kidnapped.
Love the video, it was interesting to hear your memories and feelings towards it. This game is one of the most nostalgic for me.
I never had a GameCube so I never got to play it. But I really enjoyed Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon. I will get the remake when it comes out
please do it's amazing compared to Dark Moon imo
Since you started with Dark Moon you're going to have different opinions on the OG if you ever play it. And I really wish the remake was on other things than just the Switch, so I could actually afford to play it.
My personal favorite room in Luigi's Mansion would probably be the Astral Hall, as lighting up the candles and the creepy music shortly following before multiple types of ghosts spawn gave it a more "evil spirit" vibe to it. And walking through the halls gave me a sense of loneliness, Luigi walking through bright, empty halls while whistling to himself, or a sense of paranoia when the halls are dark, walking through, humming to himself to help him keep calm, not knowing whats waiting just around the corner, if there IS even anything waiting there.Sorry that this is so long, I just had an overactive imagination as a kid.
so happy to see Pixel Portals back this was great I hope we get many more
I have built Luigi's Mansion in Minecraft twice, Halo 5 Forge, and the Sims 3. I love the layout and I have SO much nostalgia for the original game. BTW, Luigi's Mansion in Minecraft is pretty good for hide and seek!
I picked this game up when It first came out (was 4 at the time) and this game captured my interest so well and so quickly, I used to love investegating the rooms with the portrait ghosts if they weren't an immediate threat, and I really loved how you could scan the hearts of the portrait ghosts to kind of get a sense of their personality, this game was just great, as well as the video!
My favorite room was the music room. For starters, I loved the guess-that-Mario-game song minigame that you do to battle Melody, but I also liked trying all the different instruments and all the different combinations you could make.
That message you hid in the wall haha. Crazy how a game can (unconsciously) influence your life like that.
I love how there is so much Luigi’s Mansion love all of a sudden. The 3DS remake of the first game coming out this year and the 3rd Luigi’s Mansion game coming out next year on Switch.
I haven't played the original Luigi's mansion only dark moon. But im gonna get the 3ds version
You should look into trying to play the original in some way. Before or after the remake comes out, that's for you to decide. The original has a certain charm to it that in my opinion just cannot be overstated.
@@JG_Wentworth you're right
Fantastic video!
My favorite event in the game was the blackout too! I always loved when real blackouts happend, where I would then pretend my house was really some kind of haunted house and I had to explore it when I was little. I miss doing that XD. Even though all the ghosts were so annoying during the blackout it was still interesting taking a look at all the rooms during the blackout.
This video was so good I had to watch it twice
i love the whole first game as the aura of the game with all the secrets and rooms made me feel right at home as I was and still am very interested in the occult. i realy did love the first game (the second not so much cuz it was a bit lackluster for me) and that the third lives up to expectation
If you liked stargazing, NSMBU & NSLU's frosted glacier i bet you'd like that too
The billiards room always reminded me of how I first played pool with my mom and her friend and this also reminds how I played pool at a baptist church years down the line . Even though I told the kids there in the church I usually go to would not condone to this. The orchestra room reminds me of how musically inclined my family was. My gramps was a bass players. The hallways reminded me of watching Scooby doo and all the antic that happen while shagg and Scoob roam the halls for clues. Lastly Penelopes room reminded me of how I used to wet the bed a lot as a kid. But out of fear of the dark and monsters I had a wild imagination as a kid too so it didn’t help. Yeah I guess a lot memory’s can come a great game
I respect how swanky has no shame in being full nerd send. I also loved Luigi’s mansion it was the first game I got for my birthday
first gamecube game i ever played. i still finish it every now and then, love it!
These videos are great brad I love This stuff
Let's just point up and to the left while saying "Would you like to know more?"
2:47 oh god a border around a border
Found myself in a Luigi's Mansion (King Boo) binge, and your videos came up. LM1 was such a fun time, even if I was a kid who got easily scared playing it at times. 😂😅But I would always replay it, no matter what as it was always fun to see the same halls and familiar faces. Without a doubt, the Observatory and the Ballroom are some of my favorite areas in the game.
If I could just rebuy a GameCube, I could play my old files once more. Really missing it lately; especially after beating LM3 just recently. ♥
i love the sound of this guy's accent/voice haha
I always loved that hunting room,and dreamed about how cool it would be if there was a hunting themed ghost.
I think everyone was friends with someone who got on the room of the school. Only to get suspended shortly afterwards.
Good times, man!
Luigi's Mansion will always be one of my favorites.
right now I'm saving money for luigi's Mansion for 3ds
I had a very similar experience. But it was also kind of the opposite because I was playing super mario Sunshine as a kid. It really did feel like a vacation. I would sit in all parts of the islands for hours and just look at the sky and watch the planes shoot by.
Can't wait to pick this game up on October 12th for the 3DS.
I did the same thing with the grave yard. I wanted so badly to explore those woods!
I remember first playing this game and also Metroid Prime back then both of these were so crazy to me. In terms of thinking what the future was going to hold with detail in video games..
"This is the future" I thought... And I never since then I've just never really been that satisfied because I feel like we've just kind of strayed away from that progress
I always rushed the blackout part because when I was younger I was too afraid to look around
I enjoy your videos I think you should cover the house on top of the tree in Haunted Towers in the second Luigi's mansion Game.
My favourite rooms were definitely the fortune teller's room, astral hall/observatory, and the artist's studio.
I've never played the game,but I've seen it and I love the Ball Room or the Dance Hall and I'd just admire the music and let the floating whirlindas dance.
My favorite room was the music room because of the classic Mario themes that play there also the scariest moment in this game for me will always be when I first encountered bogmire and that organ music started playing terrifying me as a kid
A new Pixel Portal video!? Yes please!
I still have dreams about Luigi's Mansion. Every time I do, it's so much fun that I'm nearly inspired to make a fan-game inspired by it, but my lack of skills in programming is the buzzkill.
The dreams are never actually representative of the actual game, but they're clearly inspired by the look and feel.
The doors in the transformation room of Gruntilda's Tower still bother me to this day. I know there isn't anything behind them, but I still long to see what (my younger self believed to be) inside.
I wanted a mansion not because I wanted a lot of space, but rather due to this game. So many different rooms and a maze-like quality are rather appealing factors. I even have dreams of this establishment where I even find rooms that aren't there originally.
Why hasn't a replica of this mansion been built in real life yet?
my most found memories were the toy solders, mr luggs, the observatory and melody
There is one detail in this game none talks about: if you go to the Pipe Room, there are some pipes leaking water from above. It's almost invisible and totally useless, but I noticed that if you freeze them, the water stops dropping for a while.
This happens with any water particle emitter, my personal favorite is the fountain in the Courtyard, as all the water in it freezes.
