One big Nintendo Switch title which was showcased during the Nintendo Direct is the long-awaited Luigi’s Mansion 3. Eurogamer had the chance to chat with Nintendo of America’s, Bill Trinen after the Direct. One thing which Bill revealed to the site was that Mario’s brother Luigi continues to be a big hit with the ladies. This was proved via undisputed player research!
Nintendo had very high hopes for this third entry in the series. 3DS game Luigi’s Mansion 2 (known as Dark Moon in the US) sold well on 3DS – it shifted some 6m copies – and had appealed both to hardcore Nintendo fans and a strong wider audience.
Also, Trinen said, Nintendo’s own player research showed Luigi was a particularly attractive lead character to a female audience. Take that, Mario.
Well MARIO is a bit porky so maybe that’s luigis 1up on Mario
Well he’s tall, lean, goal oriented, loves animals, has a well-kempt mustache, and isn’t shy of showing his emotions.
Sounds like a catch to me, especially over his blank slate brother…
…also Mario Tennis says he’s got a massive dong soooo…
Omg what I’m screenshotting this now.
Luigi is for the ladies.
Waluigi is for the bois.
Honestly, as a girl, I can confirm this. I love Luigi, more so than Mario. He’s just adorable.
How about bowtie Luigi in Odyssey
As a gay man i confirm that i like Luigi more than Mario. <3
Not gay, but if I have to choose a fictional italian, I’d love to get lost in Wario’s Woods.
“Luigi And The Female Audience”
Daisy as a playable and major supporting character in the Luigi’s Mansion series?
Looks like Luigi is getting all the ladies now.Its his moment to shine. XD
Proof you don’t have to have a female lead to attract a female audience. Or need a woman for other women to connect with and relate to.
I think it’s funny that there’s only one girl who commented here
Well MNN hasn’t exactly had dozens of people commenting in comment sections these days.
Gasp! I object! MNN is the most popular news site! People flock from all over the webs to read and comment on all MNN posts!!!1!
Ever since he showed his anger in Mario Kart 8… Beware of Luigi
