Cullination Royalty: Luigi


That's right!  The very first character to be featured on Cullination Royalty is none other than the king of being underrated and underappreciated... Luigi!

               PART 1: QUICK OVERVIEW OF CHARACTER.




Name: Luigi
First Game: Mario Bros. (1983)

Luigi has always been just a shadow of his older brother, Mario.  While Mario is usually off trying to save Princess Peach from Bowser, Luigi is....some place else that no one knows.  He occasionally makes small appearances in games like Super Mario Galaxy and Paper Mario.  He also makes appearances in the sport and party franchises of the Mario series, but sadly it's not enough.

Whenever I play the Flash Mario Bros. game online, I always choose to play as Luigi.  Why? Because he's awesome.  Luigi is usually portrayed as a speedier version of Mario and sometimes even a higher jumper.  Though him being afraid of ghosts and a lot of other things doesn't exactly help his credit, I believe Luigi should be portrayed a lot more often than he is.


In 2001, Nintendo finally gave him his own game.  Luigi's Mansion was a fun game, in which Luigi had to save Mario for once!  The success of Luigi's Mansion lead to a near future sequel (though took ten years to even announce the sequel).  

Luigi is usually considered a "side kick" to his brother, Mario.  This must change!  He is a free man!

Free man...get it?....Any body?...No...okay


Come back Tuesday for Part 2 as Luigi's Cullination Royalty continues...
