Editing Talk:Luigi's Mansion

==Ta-da!==
Been working on these rooms for about a week, and I'm proud to report I am finished. I did get some help from [[User: Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]] (Courtyard) and [[User: Snowblind|Snowblind]] (Billards Room and Balcony) though. Cheers to those guys! But like I said, every room is done.

:Terrific! Now with '''PipeProjects''', such a process as ''Luigi's Mansion'' will become much easier to handle. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#006633;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Wayoshi|T]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Contributions/Wayoshi|C]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Emailuser/Wayoshi|@]] )</small> 17:28, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

==Ghosts==
''To save space, this template has been removed. This project is almost complete and can be found at [[Template:Ghosts]]. 14:48, 23 July 2006 (EDT)

This template will have been immediately added to all existing pages following this 'update' post. Looks like none of the three of us have been on today, but if you're on for 30 minutes, consider creating a page for one of the ghosts above (and putting <nowiki>{{Ghosts}}</nowiki> to add the template!). For portrait ghosts, explain where they're located and how Luigi can capture them. For common ghosts, Son of Suns, your [[Bat (Luigi's Mansion)|Bat]] article is a good example. Portraits are identified as characters, but not necessarily enemies (Neville and Lydia never try to hurt Luigi, but Chauncey does). Common ghosts are each a different species, and the only one of these that aren't enemies are the mice.

I hope everyone who has played LM, not just me, Son of Suns, and HK, will help create the ghost articles. :) <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 21:22, 20 July 2006 (EDT)

I keep finding requests for pics in the ghost articles. I've searched for pics, but there are none. I think people should do a bit of research to see if pics of characters exist before requesting them. -- [[User:Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]]

Sir, you know not what you speak. I tagged those at about 10 oclock. People can always scan and edit pictures of ghost from manuals and guides. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

==Two Proposed Side Projects==
Let's keep all recent talk up here, as this is getting long. 

Two related projects I would like to take on but definitely would like to extend the offer to anyone else:

#I will probably take on is create articles for all the rooms in the mansion, in order of Luigi's adventure. That would probably include making *yet* another template, by area. Notably rooms (where it is, what ghosts are encountered, what key or treasure is obtained, what Boo hides in the room) are easier to create articles for than Portrait Ghosts (require in-depth how-to and what happened, bosses even longer).
#<span style="text-decoration: line-through">  Boos. Create a list of the 50 Boos on the main article, including link to location to help out in the project above.</span> Complete! -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

I'll be focusing on Common Ghosts and some Portrait Ghosts (nice, complete articles in a story form, Son of Suns) for now, so feel free to start either. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 02:16, 23 July 2006 (EDT)

<hr>

I love this game. Beat it a million times. I actually had the np guide a month before I got the game... lol I can't find said guide, but I would love to help. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:I think I'll help out too, if you want me to. I have the player's guide, instruction manual, the game, and a notebook full of notes about the game that I need to upload. Unfortunately, I have so many notes to upload about other games I haven't gotten around to Luigi's Mansion yet. I could switch my focus if needed. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 14:44, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

:I have the NP Guide at home (I'm on vacation), but I remember it pretty well...here's some things I thought about:

*Money. Gold coins, bills, gems, diamonds, pearls. Tell how much is each (don't know the blue, red, and green gems exactly). Probably explain how to get both gold diamonds.
*All 23 gallery ghosts. In fact, the NP Guide has the name of the common ghosts, that's something one of us can add later.
*Elemental Medals
*Controls is something I always like to include, like how to use the flashlight effectively w/ B and tugging.

How about I add controls, directly after storyline, and the two of you work on another aspect. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 14:50, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

I'll find that guide soon. ( I hope.) And figure out what to do. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:I can work on portrait ghosts and common ghosts, maybe even the elemental medals. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 14:52, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Umm.... I'm gonna..... work on..... something..... else..... I can't find that guide. Its lost to the basement's maw! [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

This is so awesome. Mega collaborative work. And its an important article. I love this.  [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Ill work on the overview section at the top. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Sounds good, Son of Suns, since you are the only one that has the guide right now. Now I'm going to list all the money in the game, I'll use normal Wikipedia's article to help. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 15:12, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

<nowiki>*Shudders at Wikipedia*</nowiki> I just thought of a side project for [[Talk:King Bowser|Bowser]] that is loosely tied to this. Very loosely.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

I feel like I haven't done anything substantial on this project.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

==Overview==
Wouldn't this mark the second time Luigi is the star. I mean I know what it says, but isn't important if its the second EXACTLY? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:Yes. Luigi was the star of Mario is Missing, where he had to save Mario for the ''first'' time. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 15:06, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Wasn't this game hinted at in Luigi's diary in paper mario? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Awaiting some feedback on the diary thing. Or would that be trivia? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:It would be trivia, but I can't confirm the info. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 15:38, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Wasn't it a launch title? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
:Yes. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 15:33, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

==Controls==

Don't forget the different modes of control! [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
:That's right, Sidestep! Thank you. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 15:12, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

==Story==
Didn't Mario just get there first? I don't remember Luigi having Mario go first to check it out. I could have a faulty memory, however. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:Luigi called Mario and said (paraphrase) "hey I won this mansion, let's go there". Mario and Toad simply arrived first (since Luigi and Mario were in two different locations). --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 15:51, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Hey, I know you won't know, an I ask this to be humorous, but where was Luigi? Before he went to the mansion.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:Well, this is pure speculation but maybe he was at [[Mario's Pad]], the cottage house, while Mario was at [[Peach's Castle]]. Mario did arrive with Toad afterall. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 16:00, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Was Toad the only mushroom person who went with Mario or were there more? -- [[User:Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]]
:In fact, there were more. When Toad calls from the Telephone Room, he uses "we". <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#006633;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 20:35, 24 July 2006 (EDT)

==Portrait Ghosts==
Is Glutton optional? I thought he was required. Isn't the upside-down girl the only ghost who is optional? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
:Nope. You can walk right into the kitchen. Any gallery ghost that produces a silver diamond and two gold bars, or any other green treasure chest, are optional. That includes the muscle ghost...the billiards ghost...Jarvis and a couple of others. The Toy Soldiers are required because the toy house opens upon lighting the room. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 15:24, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Alright. Cool. Just wonderin. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

==The Money==
What about dollar bills? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
:Listed as "Bill" in player's guide. Worth 20,000G. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 17:23, 19 July 2006 (EDT)
Oh. Sorry missed it![[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Should we make a template out of all the money when we create their separate articles? <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 17:25, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

Probably, but that definitley won't be my job. Sorry. I did change the gold bar page, though.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
<br>What about a new category? "Luigi's Mansion Money?" <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 17:27, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

That I can do![[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Better idea![[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Money Subcategory for items, subsubcategory for Lm money[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

Um... How do I make a subcategory? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

:Make a normal category, then on the category page, put the larger category in the page. Ex: Make Luigi Mansion Money Category, then on that page, place a Money Category link. --[[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 17:44, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

:I created the category "Mansion Treasures" and put it under <nowiki>Category: Coins</nowiki>. Coins is the closest to Money, and in the description it called Coins currency. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 20:24, 19 July 2006 (EDT)

I was gonna do that.... I had to eat dinner! [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

== Next Stage ==
Still left:

*There's a lot of new articles ahead, all enemies in the mansion (they are all ghosts, so they go into the Undead Category</nowiki>). I have made articles on most of the money (Mansion Treasures) except for pearls, which I'll do first thing when I return.
*Elemental Medals, Son of Suns is in charge.
*So you can get involved, HK, can you add the House Rankings, from A to H? 100,000,000G to 5,000G (I've always wanted to get Rank H, but ignoring all money is...hard for me).
*Trivia. Such as the highest money possible is 142,390,000, composed of...(I have the details from another guy's run somewhere...), etc.

We're well on our way to making a complete page, with tens of articles branching off of it. Cheers to the three of us! <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 01:09, 20 July 2006 (EDT)

I got rank H once. It was funny to go from mansion to tent. But yeah, I'll make a list from A-H, and how much money each is. [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

==Gallery==
What did you mean when you (Wayoshi) wrote Frames become nicer as Luigi catches more Boos? [[User:Son of Suns|Son of Suns]] 00:55, 21 July 2006 (EDT)
:Hmm, I read that somewhere, that the frames have more detail. I'll remove since I'm not entirely sure. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span> 00:59, 21 July 2006 (EDT)

==Nonproject==
How can King Boo say, "All the trouble you caused me in the past..." during his first apearance?[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]
:Perhaps he is the Big Boo in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. <span style="font-family:Kunstler Script; color:#008844;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Wayoshi|W]]'''ayoshi</font></span>
::One: King Boo could be referring to all the trouble Mario and Luigi have caused for the Boos, which indirectly causes problems for King Boo. Two: Super Mario 64 DS appears to be a retcon of the original Super Mario 64 DS. As such, the Big Boo character was replaced by the King Boo character at certain points in the game, meaning that Mario and Luigi have caused troubles for King Boo in a retconned storyline. Three: King Boo cannot be Big Boo from Super Mario World. There is more than one Big Boo in the game and they can be easily defeated. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

==Leaving==
Hey I gotta tell you guys something. In about a month I go to school, and I may be unable to come to the site. I don't know. If I can go to the site, it would be at strict times that I am unsure of.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

==Next Time==
Next time we do a big project, should we do like wikipedia (ugh) and make a template to put on talk pages saying that its part of a project, and the main project page is here (link)? [[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

They're fine. Keep it up.[[User:HK-47|<font size="4">H</font><font size="1">K</font>]]

== Official Storyline ==
I got this from "Super Mario Bros. HQ," which got it from the US instruction booklet:
"One day, Luigi received an unexpected message:
You've won a huge mansion! Naturally, He got very excited and called his brother, Mario. "Mario? It's me, Luigi. I won myself a big mansion! Meet me there and we'll celebrate, what do you say?"
Luigi tried to follow the map to his new mansion, but the night was dark, and he became hopelessly lost in an eerie forest along the way. Finally, he came upon a gloomy mansion on the edge of the woods. According to the map, this mansion seemed to be the one Luigi was looking for. As soon as Luigi set foot in the mansion, he started to feel nervious. Mario, who should have arrived first, was nowhere to be seen. Not only that, but there were ghosts in the mansion!
Suddenly, a ghost lunged at Luigi! "Mario! Help meee!" That's when a strange old man with a vacuum cleaner on his back appeared out of nowhere! This strange fellow managed to rescue Luigi from the ghosts, then the two of them escaped...
It just so happened that the old man, Professor Elvin Gadd, who lived near the house, was researching his favorite subject, ghosts. Luigi told Professor E. Gadd that his brother Mario was missing, so the Professor decided to give Luigi two inventions that would help him search for his brother.
Luigi's not exactly known for his bravery. Can he get rid of all of the prank-loving ghosts and find Mario?"

Should we incorperate it or just use our rewrite currently on the article?  Ours is more "encyclopedia-ish".  {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 21:42, 3 December 2007 (EST)

==Strageties for capturing ghosts quickly==
I would like all that follows this to be added.  'As soon as you start sucking up the ghost, move the analog stick (control stick) AND the C-Stick in the Direction opposite of the ghost. Doing this repeatedly can help guaranteed getting a gold border on a picture of the ghost.' [[User:Learner|Learner]] 16:04, 8 March 2008 (EST)
:Very good point... I'm wondering how that isn't already in the article.  You can put that in anywhere you like.  I would recomend it being in the "Game Play" sectin.  We have that, right? {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 18:31, 8 March 2008 (EST)

== A To-Do List ==

This article needs work before it can truely be a featured article, in my opinion.  Would anyone like to help me come up with a to-do list? {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 00:42, 17 March 2008 (EDT)

== Look out for Idiots!!! ==
I found this [http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/127728/pirates-repackage-gamecube-games-as-wii-titles/ article] while Googling Luigi's Mansion artwork. Accoding to this, pirates have been repakeging Luigi's Mansion by putting it on DVD's, and inserting them into fake Wii version boxes. This means we have to look out for people who have been fooled into thinking this is real, because some n00bs might put these things into article. This is possible because some people were thinking that [[Super Mario World]] NES pirate was real. --{{User:Nerdy Guy/sig|Just making sure you guys know these things}}

Um, how did this article became FA when there is more than 2 improvement templates on it? {{User:Super mario fan/sig|Double the link}}

== Portraits and New Mansion ==

Does anyone have  pictures of the silver and bronze portraits for the portrait ghosts? I think it would be a great addition the the portrait ghost's pages.
Also does anyone have pictures of all the levels of Luigi's New Mansion? {{unsigned|YoshiEggs}}


== 3-D series ==


Is this game considered part of the 3-D series? {{User:GalacticPetey/sig}} Will someone please awnser!

No because it's a spin off game. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}

==Gallery Portraits==
I think that someone should upload all three frames of the gallery ghosts. For example, [[Neville]]'s bronze frame depicts his head with this facial expression: o:. However, his gold frame depicts him sitting on the chair reading a book. This will help get an idea of the difference in quality of the frames as mentioned. If someone can do it, then that'd be great!--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
:I agree. Now where will we get the images? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}

::That's the only problem...:/--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

== Trivia ==

"This game is seen by many as a total, complete, in all senses of the phrase, rip-off of the movie Ghostbusters. HOWEVER, this is relatively far from true. In the movie, they use proton-emitting 'wands' attached to the back-attached Proton Packs (thus the link to the Poltergust), with the general affect being that of a laser stream emitter. Plus, to actually capture the ghosts, the team used 'traps' which did have a slightly vacuum-reminiscent effect upon activation, where they had to be below the specter in need of capturing. So, Luigi's Mansion replaces all of that with a vacuum cleaner. So, while the game does take elements from Ghostbusters, (for the better) it doesn't rip off the movie as much as people think. "


Some of this trivia seems opionated to me, and somewhat irrelevant. Could we get rid of this or at least shorten it? --[[User:LuigiBros64|LuigiBros64]]

==Toad not a Generic Toad?==

Well I'm not entirely sure but it seems likely that this toad who is the option of the save file may infact be the character Toad. He is referred to as simply "Toad" in the instruction manual and even in the quote .."I wish I could do something to help you... Talk to me for help anytime!" , he shows that he is the only toad there, signifying that he is important and the only Toad there. Also he is one of peach's servants so is he the major character Toad?
[[User:Pichufan93]]


===So many Ghosts===

This has nothing to do with the wiki... the Mario universe had so many ghosts before Luigi's mansion couldn't they have been included?
[[Boo]], [[Boo Buddy]], [[Big Boo]], [[Terekuribo]], [[Boo Guy]], [[Lantern Ghost]], [[Eerie]], [[Stretch]], [[Fishin' Boo]], [[Boo Buddy Block]], [[Greaper]], [[Gusty]], [[Caged Ghost]], [[Blindfold Boo]], [[Inviso]] plus other monsters that fit the bill:  [[Mr. I]], [[Dry Bones]], [[Fishbone]], [[Zombie Wario]], [[Zombone]], [[Bony Beetle]], [[Bone Dragon]], [[Straw Head]]... the possibilities they had to "mariofy" that game are there, why did it feel so foreign?

== Sequel ==

Shouldn't it be mentioned that a sequel for the 3DS was mentioned by Hideki Konno in an interveiw with Nintendo power;

"'''Nintendo Power: You mentioned Luigi's Mansion earlier, so we have to ask: have you given any thought to a sequel for that game? it seems like it would be a great fit for the Nintendo 3DS.'''

Hideki Konno:When i did experiments with Luigi's mansion and the aforementioned 3D panel for the GameCube 10 years ago, ''i found that game was indeed a great match for 3D. so there is a chance that you can see a sequel for the Nintendo 3DS in the future''."


They said the exact same thing for Pikmin 3, and it is coming out...[[User:VersionJay|VersionJay]] 19:09, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

:A sequel for the game hasn't been announced yet, but Pikmin 3 was already announced. I think this shouldn't be in yet until we are 100% sure that a sequel is coming. After all, he said "there is a chance." {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

==Delete Chronological Storyline section==
{{SettledTPP}}
<span style="color:green;font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:150%">DELETE SECTION 17-0</span>

Seriously, this is pointless. The section is ridiculously long and poorly-written, reading like an especially useless FAQs that merely describes the room progression and the cutscenes. It's also rambling and full of information that isn't relevant to the game (most of the stuff about E Gadd's backstory) or the storyline. The plot summary below it is more than good enough to descrive the game's plot.

===Support===
#{{User|Glowsquid}} Per proposal
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per Glowsquid. The mere fact that we have two storyline sections looks disorganized: we should go with the one that actually follows established wiki conventions (i.e. the one that's a plot summary, not a novelization).
#{{User|Edofenrir}} - I agree with the proposal.
#{{User|Mario4Ever}} Per all.
#{{User|Zero777}} Per proposal
#{{User|Reversinator}} Per all.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} Really, this proposal isn't necessary since the storyline thing doesn't even adhere to the standards, but I'll go with you.
#{{User|UltraMario3000}} Per Walkazo and the Mario that's  lefty and wears green.
#{{User|Magikrazy51}} This would be better on someone else's article like E. Gadd or Boo Woods or both. Per <s>Blitzwing</s> Glowsquid.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Having two sections on the story causes serious redundancy. I'd go with the more professional and encyclopedia-like.
#{{User|Bowser's luma}} I feel bad for whoever wrote all that redundancy that will be gone soon...
#{{User|Reddragon19k}} Two words: PER ALL!!
#{{User|SWFlash}} Do I have to say "Per proposer" everytime I support proposals? I think we need another proposal that disallows describing the support votes, like in FA proposals.
#{{User|Gamefreak75}} It's just a convoluted mess now. Per all.
#{{User|Bop1996}} Per all.
#{{User|Ultrahammer5365}} Yeah, it's way too long and rambling. Per all.
#{{User|SuperYoshiBros}} Per all.

===Oppose===
===Comment===
@SW Flash Only if the reason for your support is the proposal itself. I think a proposal to remove reasons for one's votes would fail, since it appears that many users (myself included) find unsupported reasons invalid. {{User|Mario4Ever}}

== Nana and Petunia ==
in the Portrait ghosts part of the page, Miss Petunia is listed before Nana but you get the hint on Petunia's weakness from Nana's diary which means that you defeat Nana first and Petunia second, right? Or can you defeat them vice versa? [[User:Luigi time!|When Chauncey screams, so do I]] 

::Hello, anyone there? [[User:Luigi time!|When Chauncey screams, so do I.]] 02:21, 14 May 2011 (EDT)

:::You can defeat them in any order.  [[User:MarioMaster720]]

::::You can do it in any order, but it would make more sense if Nana was listed first, then Ms. P. But it doesn't ''have'' to be changed, so... :O [[User:Username|<span style="font-family:onyx;color:#000">✄---Moshata---x</span>]] 13:51, 22 July 2011 (EDT)

==Weird fact==
''"Super Mario World: When Mario or Luigi entered the first haunted house, the Boos said that they have met them in a mansion somewhere"''

:Wait a moment, that game was released before this one, and the Boos didn't talk, did they? {{User:Supermariofan14/sig}}
::Good find. That reference is definitely bogus. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 20:30, 15 July 2011 (EDT)

==Luigi Hang Glitch==
Apparently, there's a glitch OR a possible Easter egg circulating the internet.
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjejTiRoOgk See it here...]
I don't think it's worth mentioning in the actual article, but rather, on a ''glitch article'' related to [[Luigi's Mansion]].
There are a few other known glitches to Luigi's Mansion as well.
Any thoughts on this? I thought I'd ask before messing anything up. [[User:Moshata|<span style="font-family:onyx;color:#000">✄---Moshata---x</span>]] 13:48, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
:All we could really say is that the shadow depicts Luigi off of the ground. It's not clear enough to consider it a depiction of Luigi's "hanging." {{User:Mario4Ever/sig}} 14:24, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
::Yeah, saying it's him "hanging" is going too far, but the fact that the shadow is floating is a valid glitch, and making a "{{fakelink|Luigi's Mansion/Glitches}}" sub-page for it and other glitches (such as the Trivia point about the lack of fire in the mirror reflections) would be fine. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 19:03, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
:::I'll add it to trivia (once I think about a way to word it), but I will not include the video link because there's no point in my mind. Thanks again! [[User:Username|<span style="font-family:onyx;color:#000">✄---Moshata---x</span>]] 11:57, 24 July 2011 (EDT)

== Money ==

Maximum count of Small Pearls is greater than 76, which only applies if all ghost are vacuumed perfectly. I thought this would be mention worthy.
