LUIGI'S MANSION: HOW NINTENDO'S PLAYER 2 BECAME A SUPERSTAR
Chris Trenary
Luigi has a reputation as the lesser of the famous Super Mario Bros. A coward and an underdog through and through, he’s everything his world-renowned brother isn’t. And yet, since his introduction in 1983, he has persisted as one of Nintendo’s most iconic, beloved and relatable characters.
But how, and why, did he adopt his scaredy-cat persona? Why do so many players swear by Luigi’s superiority to his older sibling, despite his apparent shortcomings? And how did his first starring role, a spooky ghost-hunting adventure through the halls of a haunted house, manage to kickstart one of gaming’s most unlikely success stories?
Luigi’s Mansion: How Nintendo’s Player 2 Became a Superstar explores the storied history of one of the video game giant’s most bizarre spin-off series, collecting developer interviews, accounts of major moments in Nintendo’s past, and the author’s personal experiences with the franchise. Step inside, and discover the evolution of pop culture’s perception of the green, mustachioed hero across four decades of gaming.
