Today we explore Nintendo's nontraditional horror game Luigi's Mansion in this retrospective video. The GameCube era was an age of experimentation for Nintendo, a time where they would try out new ideas with established franchises. One of the system’s launch titles starred not their flagship plumber, but rather his brother in a horrifying adventure through a ghost-infested mansion. Today we explore why Luigi's Mansion remains a beloved title and how it cheerfully subverts the expectations of survival horror. #LuigisMansion #GameCube #Nintendo
