Still a joy to control, this jittery Luigi shines with its spectral puzzles and slapstick charm. The mission structure breaks the pacing slightly, but vacuuming ghosts stays wonderfully tactile and the Switch port holds up nicely.

Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon (Nintendo Switch) price, value & rarity
On the original 3DS, each mansion peaks with a major spirit that twists the suction gameplay: timing puzzles, projectiles to bounce back and stacked phases where the Poltergust becomes a precision tool. The blend of Luigi's jittery humor and real tension makes these captures a lasting high point of Dark Moon.
Better with friends
Ghost-hunting comes alive with four in ScareScraper, where you cooperate to light up rooms, capture spirits and revive teammates before the timer runs out. The multiplayer leaned heavily on local and download play, worth keeping in mind today; when it's running, the team panic and last-second saves are the whole point. Short, jittery, perfect for one more floor.
