Features

The fun begins on a proverbial dark and stormy night, as Luigi investigates a mysterious mansion he’s inherited. Instead of a relaxing retreat, he finds a host of howling spirits. Our hero ventures through countless rooms filled with side-splitting spooks, trying to vacuum up the ghoulish ghosts to clean the house of its unwelcome visitors. With the help of a new doctor friend, Luigi must capture ghosts and turn them into paintings. Throughout the adventure, players watch Luigi creep, cower and cry in fright as the roaming spirits try to scare him out of his wits.

Luigi’s Mansion shows off the powerful graphics capabilities of the Nintendo GameCube technology to create an immersive world that is filled with intriguing visuals. For example, the game features real-time lighting and shading created by Luigi’s flashlight, as well as transparent ghosts - effects that could be created only on Nintendo GameCube.
