List Of Luigi Video Games
History
Luigi was introduced in the 1983 Game & Watch title Mario Bros., where he and Mario work in a bottling plant. He later appeared widely in the arcade game Mario Bros., released two weeks later. The first game to star Luigi and to use the Luigi branding was the 1990 game Luigi's Hammer Toss, in which Luigi uses a shield to deflect hammers being thrown by Hammer Bros. More recently, he has appeared in the Luigi's Mansion series. Two of the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Mario games, with those being Super Mario Bros. and the NES port of Mario Bros., have been ported to the Wii U and altered to feature Luigi as the protagonist instead of Mario.
Mini-games
Nintendo Land for Wii U features an attraction called "Luigi's Ghost Mansion", heavily inspired by Luigi's Mansion. "Luigi's Ghost Mansion" involves up to four players dressed like Luigi, Mario, Waluigi and Wario respectively, who assume the roles of "ghost trackers" and explore a haunted house to hunt for the fifth player, who is the ghost.
Included in NES Remix 2 is Super Luigi Bros., a Luigi-themed and mirrored version of Super Mario Bros. It features Luigi's higher jumping ability, which had not been originally introduced until the 1986 Japanese sequel Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels.
An unlockable Luigi-themed version of Mario Bros. titled Luigi Bros. was also included with Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch re-release Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury.
