With so many ways to play for so little a cost, it’s hard not to recommend Dr. Luigi. The Dr. Mario gameplay has held up over the years because, like Chess, Checkers, or Don’t Take a Whiz on the Electric Fence, it’s easy to pick up but constantly shifting. Plus, it only costs fifteen bucks to download Dr. Luigi, which, given the amount of replayability here, is a friggin’ steal. If you’ve got a fever, you know the prescription. No, it ain’t more cowbell. It’s more Dr. Luigi.
Nintendo came through with a surprise announcement just this morning. Lego Luigi is going to be dropping later this year in 2021. There were a couple of leaks that surfaced over the last couple of days, along with the Lego Mario firmware update that had Mario calling out Luigi’s name, but finally Nintendo have made an official announcement.
