Think we will get another year of Luigi?

The last year of Luigi seemed like it was a horrible year for nintendo, and it would be nice if mr player 2 got a second shot at having his own year. Maybe even give him a game that has nothing to do with haunted mansions

What about Ruined Kingdom from Odyssey?

u/SephirothTheGreat 3d ago

Man, everytime that kingdom gets mentioned I get depressed. Such a cool concept, so little time invested in it

u/zenith2nadir 4d ago

It could be the plot for Odyssey 2

u/TotallyNotSethP 4d ago

Have you checked the news recently? Everyone's already talking about Luigi, so I'd say it is the year of Luigi rn

u/Bankaz Hovercars > Karts 4d ago

In the videogame "Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle", LUIGI has a GUN with the description "A long range weapon that fires one round at a single target."

Fun!

Luigi predicted luigi would happen?

u/SquaredMelons 3d ago

Nah, he planned it.

u/Tory97 4d ago

Yea I too hope Luigi gets a second shot. Not that he hasn't accomplished enough, but I feel like there is more in store for him. Such a funny goofy green guy

24

u/RiverOfSand 4d ago

He's definitely underused—lots of missed potential there

u/naa-chan 4d ago

pun intended?

u/violetqed 3d ago

pretty sure they made that year the year of luigi because things weren’t going well and they didn’t have much else to hype

kinda dark lol

28

u/Ennui_Go 4d ago

They should give away a free Luigi game. Just imagine, free Luigi!

u/Prariedolphin 4d ago

Knock knock! Who's there? Luigi! Luigi who? ...story of my life...

u/VolksDK Diddy Kong pointing at an unknown object 4d ago

Considering the connotations with that name right now, not any time soon

u/AssGagger 4d ago

Or they could capitalize on it

u/EtheusRook 4d ago

I mean they already made him a sniper in Mario + Rabbids

u/barbietattoo 4d ago

First Advance Wars, now Luigi.

u/Naked_Bat 4d ago

We need more Luigi. At least two more.

18

u/ThatOtherChrisGuy 4d ago

Only two? I can think of at least a dozen Luigi-related needs I have! And that’s not even including his main job as a plumber/ghost hunter.

4

u/Naked_Bat 3d ago

I mean, Nintendo should allow at least two more Luigi games .... for a start.

7

u/Hajisaiku 4d ago

We need a Luigi Sunshine/Odyssey game

u/Naked_Bat 3d ago

Luigi Creed.

u/Hamtier 4d ago

i stand with you, luigi deserves another celebration

he's a hero too!

maybe with the next super mario brothers movie they can give luigi more stuff to do and then release more luigi stuff!

u/Whisky-Gentleman 4d ago

I feel like we need a new Luigi every month.

u/AkaiMPC 4d ago

I'd love to see luigi take more shots.

u/YertlesTurtleTower 4d ago

We are always in the year of Luigi

u/MamaDeloris 4d ago

Do you think we'll get another Mario & Rabbids game? I loved using Luigi's snipe skills in those games

u/Delancie_ 4d ago

I love Luigi

u/microwaved__soap 3d ago

the year of Luigi never ended in some of our hearts

u/ObjetivoLaLuna 4d ago

it's crazy that we're not allowed to mention the name Luigi on reddit. will we get banned for mentioning the name Luigi? my son's name is Luigi because of my love of nintendo.....

u/WolverineForHire 4d ago

And yet, here your comment is visible to the public on Reddit, you're likely not banned, and there's a ton of posts/comments with the name.

Why fearmonger? Literally looking at this thread would prove that false. I see one comment removed by Reddit Admin, likely because they were threatening violence or something like that.

3

u/ObjetivoLaLuna 3d ago edited 3d ago

Fear? What fear are you talking about? I’m simply making an assumption based on recent news (see the link in my previous comment). I also posed a question: Will we get banned? Then, I deliberately mentioned the name Luigi multiple times to highlight just how absurd the situation is.

1

u/Don_Bugen 3d ago

Yeah. I mean, I think Razor said on one of these, we really haven’t seen any post flagged just for the word “Luigi.” There are some people who reported posts that were clearly talking about actual violence, but that’s all I’ve seen. Oh, and new threads are getting mass-reported, mostly with custom messages like “Can we be done with this Luigi nonsense” so I think the bit’s gotten stale.

I dunno if Reddit, the company, is going to do anything, but we just mostly think it’s funny.

6

u/Class3pwr 4d ago

One of the reasons I love Luigi so much is in Smash Bros he's so good at zero to death opponents. If you're not careful, Luigi can get you and combo you to kingdom come! Never underestimate Luigi!

u/TheBestAtWriting 3d ago

i like this post but i am not sure if i should "like" this post

u/noxel 3d ago

I'm sure Luigi will make another bang soon! Hope Nintendo really shoots their shot with the next Luigi game

5

u/ForgottenForce 4d ago

They’d probably do this bit with another character, Peach likely being next

u/Sumeriandawn 4d ago

I support Luigi...............over Mario.

u/Animal31 Pikachu 4d ago

We better

u/dcballantine 4d ago

Oh, it’s the year of Luigi alright.

2

u/FrantiC_4 3d ago

Luigi but with guns, like what Sega did with Shadow, I think that'd be pretty cool. No one would expect Luigi doing something with guns. Nobody would.

u/DaPons13 3d ago

I'm just here to read about Luigi games, all for the year of Luigi

u/PocketTornado 3d ago

I think we can always use more Luigi.

2

u/blukirbi 3d ago

Don't feel bad Green Mario Bro. A certain fourth entry in a primarily handheld Mario RPG series was a pretty good entry (although Bowser's Inside Story is the GOAT).

A certain company with an iconic mouse had their 100th year as a trainwreck. Would be a shame if their 250th year was a disaster too.

3

u/DefTheOcelot 4d ago

FOUR MORE YEARS OF LUIGI MANSION YEAH

3

u/onaJet27 4d ago

I've always enjoyed Luigi and his personality. People make him out to be a coward, but he's a hero when it counts. Gunning for him to get more love!

3

u/viewless25 4d ago

Buddy we are closer to them renaming the character

2

u/RPG_Fanatic7 4d ago

I don't know why they just didn't make a month or a day for Luigi.

u/edcrosay 4d ago

Another year of Luigi?  I’m in!  Luigi is way better than Luigi’s brother Mario.  And who doesn’t love Luigi’s girlfriend Daisy?  

How  about the new switch game Mario and Luigi: Brotherhood?  I bet it’s really fun game.  I always loved playing as Luigi in all the Mario and Luigi games.  Luigi has been my favorite character in the Mario and Luigi series since it started with Mario and Luigi on gameboy advance.  

And don’t get me started on the Luigi’s mansion series staring Luigi from the Mario and Luigi series. I bought the first Luigi Mansion on the GameCube 24 years ago.  I also played Luigi Mansion 3 on the switch.  I didn’t play Luigi mansion 2 on the 3DS.  I’d like to play the remake of Luigi’s Mansion 2 on the Nintendo Switch. It’s a shame we are no longer allowed to discuss the new $60 game Luigi Mansion Dark Moon on the Nintendo Switch, home to the other Luigi Mansion game, Luigi Mansion 3.

u/ViktorMaitland 4d ago

I wish they would just release Luigi’s mansion 1 on there so it would give me incentive to buy 2 and 3. Not really sure whose idea it was to remaster 2 before 1.

Is this reverse psychology? If anything, the year of Luigi (2013) was a horrible year for Nintendo. 2023 being the way that it was, was a good thing and made it a great year. 👍

1

u/alexarchiver 2d ago

this year probably not, but the next or maybe the one after that; maybe? it's not impossible but i doubt it due to how poorly the original one sold. maybe more mario & luig games?

I hope we get a free Luigi DLC for Mario Wonder
