With the Nintendo Switch well in its twilight years, many fans were wondering what kind of announcements were in store for the most recent Nintendo Direct. Interestingly, the Direct focused quite heavily on Mario and co. – with a remaster of the 3DS Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon being revealed.

Releasing some time in 2024, Nintendo announced that “a visually enhanced version of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, originally released on Nintendo 3DS, is currently in development and coming to #NintendoSwitch.”

Few details have been shared so far, but based on the footage, the game looks to be much more than a simple remaster. Of course, it is hard to tell how high quality the assets and models for the original Dark Moon are due to it being on the 3DS (which has a screen resolution of 400×240p).

Still, this seems to be closer to a Metroid Prime situation than a mere upscale. Hopefully we get to see more from the game (including which studio is developing it) sooner rather than later.

We've heard rumblings that new Mario games will be announced for this year. During today's Nintendo Direct, we weren't let down on that front, with Nintendo announcing the new Super Mario RPG. 

Super Mario RPG is a modern remake of the original SNES game, offering entirely new visuals. You can get a peek at the new-look Mario RPG in the trailer below:

Super Mario RPG will be launching for Nintendo Switch on the 17th of November.

The original Super Mario RPG is a beloved classic from the 90's and the remake looks to be a faithful adaptation. The trailer shows some returning original characters, alongside the stars of the show in Mario, Peach and Bowser. Pre-orders for the remake go live today.

In 2024, Nintendo will have more Mario games on the way, including a brand new Princess Peach game and a remaster of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, both for Nintendo Switch.

KitGuru Says: I didn't have a SNES back in the day, so Super Mario RPG is one of those games that I've heard about often but never played myself. Did many of you play the original Super Mario RPG? Will you be picking up the Switch remake?

Luigi’s Mansion 3, the action-adventure Switch exclusive, released on the 31st of October to great critical and commercial success. Months later, Nintendo has finally announced the game’s first paid DLC pack. Named ‘ScareScraper and ScreamPark DLC Pack’, it focuses on the multiplayer aspect of the game, adding new minigames, outfits, and additional content to existing co-op modes. This is only the first part of the Multiplayer Pack, with a part 2 also being confirmed by Nintendo.

The first part of the DLC pack will arrive by the 30th of April 2020, and will bring with it • Three new minigames for multiplayer ScreamPark mode • Six new Themed Ghosts • Three new outfits for Luigi • Three new floor themes in co-op ScareScraper mode. 

Part 2 meanwhile will arrive by the 31st of July 2020, and will be bringing with it “additional content and features for both ScreamPark and ScareScraper modes”. These DLC packs cannot be purchased separately, however, the two combined will set you back a modest £8.99. Those who purchase the DLC will receive immediate access to an exclusive flashlight that “makes a Polterpup shape on walls”.

Luigi’s Mansion 3 released on the 31st of October, and quickly became the fastest selling Nintendo game of the year – although that achievement has since been taken by Pokémon Sword and Shield. The game also became the highest rated title in the series according to Metacritic, and took home the award for Best Family Game at the 2019 Game Awards.

While no single player DLC has been announced for Luigi’s Mansion 3 by Nintendo, new content for a much beloved title is always appreciated, even if it is just for multiplayer.

It looks like Luigi might finally be stepping out from under the shadow of his older brother. Luigi’s Mansion 3 has become Nintendo’s fastest selling game of the year in the UK physical charts, outperforming The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, and even Super Mario Maker 2.

The action-adventure ‘horror’ game released on Halloween, Thursday the 31st of October. This gave the game an extra day in sales, as opposed to other Nintendo titles, which generally release on Fridays. This feat is still impressive however, especially as 2019 saw major releases from both Mario and Zelda.

This could easily put Luigi’s Mansion 3 in the top 10 best selling Nintendo Switch games, given enough time. If the title manages to maintain its momentum, it could potentially outsell The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Super Mario Maker 2, and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, which have sold 3.13 million, 3.93 million, and 4.59 million respectively.

Furthermore the previous Luigi’s Mansion game sold 5.5 million copies on the 3DS when it released back in 2013. According to Gamesindustry.biz, the Switch game’s launch sales have been 140% higher than that of the 3DS’ entry, without including digital sales. Considering digital sales have become much more prevalent since 2013, the game has most likely outperformed its predecessor by an even greater margin.

Factoring all these details into the equation, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Luigi’s Mansion 3 become one of Nintendo’s best selling switch games of all time. It is unlikely to remain the fastest selling game of the year for long however. Pokémon Sword and Shield will be releasing on the 15th of November, and will almost certainly take the crown from Luigi’s head. Still, it is mighty impressive to see Mario’s little brother pull in such big numbers.
