This game is great BTW...so much charm and variety, and tons of loot to scavenge for. If you have a 3DS...buy it. If you don't, seriously consider getting a 3DS to play this game...then also get Mario 3D Land. And Professor Layton. And Ocarina of Time. And Mario Kart. And Fire Emblem in a little while, and the new Pokemon later in the year.
Just get a 3DS and enjoy the games...forget smart phones and tablets, handheld gaming doesn't get better than 3DS.
Hell, get a Vita...it's worst game still kicks the butt of any smart phone game out there.
The best game for phones and tablets is GTA 3 for goodness sake, and it's almost gimped by the rubbish touch screen controls.
Angry Birds will kill 10 minutes, Dark Moon will keep you going for hours and is a FAR more rewarding game.

Some great games there. Still waiting for the switch to become a real powerhouse with more of what Nintendo is known for. I feel that with 2 years in, it has been slow.

It is a good time to be a Luigi fan. Mario’s little brother not only has a place in Super Mario Maker 2, but 2019 brought his adventure series back. Luigi’s Mansion has returned! But, what if someone didn’t play it on the GameCube? What if a person missed the handheld releases? Here’s why everyone should help Luigi suck up some unruly spirits.

Luigi’s Mansion gave Mario’s brother his own identity

Before Luigi’s Mansion came out in 2001, Luigi was stuck in Mario’s shadow. Luigi started life as a green-colored palette-swap for Mario in the 1983 arcade game Mario Bros., and that was his role going forward for a long time. If a Mario game had two players, Luigi would be called into action.

That’s why the announcement of Luigi’s Mansion felt like such a big deal. Every major Nintendo home console had launched with a Mario game. Now, the GameCube was going to debut in 2001 alongside a solo Luigi adventure. Finally, the little brother plumber was getting the spotlight.
