I wouldn’t be the first person to draw parallels between Nintendo and Pixar, but it’s especially justified here. There is amazing animation talent on display. Peering through windows and cracks in the walls, you can spy on them them cackling gleefully as they run amok, playing catch with dismembered suits of armour and disappearing through walls, usually with something Luigi desperately needs in spectral hand. The ghosts exude personality too in their movement, their quirky behaviour and their reactions to Luigi’s presence. It’s the small details that bring him to life: his bumbling run, his perpetual cowering, the way he hums nervously along with the theme music and talks to himself. Hapless, burbling, reluctantly heroic Luigi is the perfect star for this slapstick, spooky adventure.

But his subjects go a bit mental when the Dark Moon is shattered, and Gadd calls upon his old friend Luigi to restore order. Play You might remember the creepily childlike Professor E Gadd from the original Luigi’s Mansion he’s spent the last twelve years as a paranormal researcher, inventing things that harness the ghosts’ supernatural energy.
