Nintendo held a new direct yesterday in which it made it clear that His path has been written in the stars for years, decades even, because it has put back on the table a large number of novelties which are inspired, directly or indirectly, by other developments already put on sale 10, 20 and even 30 years ago. Between them, such Luigi’s Mansion 2 Dark Moon which will land on Switch.
The second part of the incredible Luigi’s mansion Originally released for the Game Cube, it will officially arrive on Nintendo Switch next year, on a date yet to be confirmed, and it with a completely redesigned technical part since the Japanese will have to convert these graphics for the old 3DS into something that we can assume has enough quality to compete with the big names in the current video game market.
Not only the graphics need to be improved
when you read the word redo everyone is thinking of a facelift with better graphics, textures, etc., but In this case, the reconstruction work must go a little further. Because? Well, for one simple reason: the original cartridge from Luigi’s mansion 2 It was designed for a laptop almost a decade ago and this forced Nintendo to limit its objectives and vary the development, moving it away from the first installment and, above all, from the third.
In effect, Luigi’s mansion 2 for Nintendo 3DS was not an open game, in which we study the scenario piece by piece and it is only as we open new paths that we discover unexplored areas, but rather everything has been organized around the lair of Professor Fesor, who gave us short missions that we had to complete: we took one, we entered the house, we finished it and returned to the laboratory to accept another mission.
this detail turned towards Luigi’s mansion 2 in the most limited title of the three availableunderstandable due to its status as a laptop game, but now in its jump to Nintendo Switch it must change diametrically, offering exploration at the level of the rest of the versions of the saga.
Of course, a detail that we will lose with the passage of Luigi’s mansion 2 from the Nintendo 3DS to the Switch will undoubtedly be the three dimensions, one of the most amazingly beautiful cartridges
Other Nintendo Direct announcements
So we’ll see how it evolves. redo announced yesterday by Nintendo along with other important releases such as the -completely revamped- return of Super Mario RPG, a Super Nintendo cartridge which at the time came in a limited way in the West and that now the Japanese want to offer globally.
They also announced a new Wonder of Super Mario Bros. (the classic 2D platform game with multiplayer to have a good time with friends) or volume 1 of Metal Gear Solid Master Collectionthat for the first time we will see the three original versions together and compiled in this way on a Nintendo console.
The Direct gave a lot, but above all, to remind us why Nintendo is different from all other companies since he achieves this, generation after generation, many of his sagas eventually reach the category of classics and are rightfully part of popular culture.
