The game was first shown at the Nintendo Space World 2000, as one of the few games that was made during the time. It is said that the game was gonna be for the Nintendo 64, but was later moved to the Gamecube, because the 64 was near it's end. There is two speculations:

*The sound effect when Luigi gets one of Mario's items for [[Madame Clairvoya]] is the same sound when [[Mario]] enters a painting in [[Super Mario 64]]
One of the early ideas for the game was a 3D plug-in that when plugged in, the player could play it in 3D. This idea was scrapped because it would have been expensive around the time. The game was later shown at E3 2001 as a demo that had several differences from the final version.
*There is a cropped image called "Test.bti", which has [[Princess Daisy]]'s artwork from [[Mario Tennis 64]].
 
The game was also able to be played in 3D with an add-on, but was cancelled because it would have been expensive.

*The [[Poltergust 3000]] was originally called the Poltergust 400 and had a different look. The vacuum had an overheat meter and whenever it reached ten, it would explode, causing [[Luigi]] to drop to the ground.

*Several different kinds of mansions were planned for the final game, including an apartment complex, a dollhouse, a ninja mansion and a Japanese-style house. The game was originally conceptualized to resemble the ''Mario'' series more closely, but strayed when the haunted western mansion concept took priority.<ref>http://www.n-sider.com/contentview.php?contentid=261</ref>

This is similar to the [[Sneaker]]'s method of scaring Luigi in [[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]].
=== Room differences ===
*The [[Foyer]] was called the "Entrance", and had a different door design, along with Toad's absence and the mirror wasn't covered up.

A stuffed rabbit and two teddy bears were on a shelf, and the crib was further from the wall. There was also no treasure chest containing the key to Area Two, as the door was accessible from the start of the demo.
*Many doors were boarded up. Doors leading to the Basement, [[Anteroom]], [[Ball Room]], [[Laundry Room]], [[Sealed Room]], and [[Fortune-Teller's Room]] were examples.
*The Dining Room was accessed by another door near the Area Two door, in it's own hallway. The Dining Room had several beta ghosts residing in it, and did not include [[Mr. Luggs]]. The doors to the [[Billiards Room]] and the [[Projection Room]] were also boarded up, and a china cabinet was positioned between both boarded up doors.
*The Kitchen had many ghosts, including two unseen chef-like ghosts who threw food at Luigi.
*[[Skeleton Ghost]]s did not appear in the [[Boneyard]], while Purple Punchers and Flying Fish were present
*In the [[Graveyard]], the area where [[Bogmire]] resided was missing.
*The [[Bathroom (1F)]] was called the "Lavatory" and had Boos residing in it.
*The second floor was blocked by several stacked boxes.

**Second Gallery: It had unicorn statues (similar to the ones on the third floor [[Balcony (3F)|Balcony]], though they have shorter horns)  instead of angels and was longer than the first one.
**Third Gallery: It was the same as the second one, but was even more shorter.

List of Luigi's Mansion beta elements

This is a list of beta elements from Luigi's Mansion.

Early builds

The game was first shown at the Nintendo Space World 2000, among other games that were being made during the time. The game was going to be for the Nintendo 64, but was later moved to the Nintendo Gamecube, because the 64 was near it's end.

One of the early ideas for the game was a 3D plug-in that when plugged in, the player could play it in 3D. This idea was scrapped because it would have been expensive around the time. The game was later shown at E3 2001 as a demo that had several differences from the final version.

First Build

  • In the original opening, Luigi went in without the flashlight he had in the final game, then a blue ghost scared him, causing him to slide down the rails and dodge the falling set of chandeliers, making Luigi scream. [1]
  • The Poltergust 3000 was originally called the Poltergust 400 and had a different look. The vacuum had an overheat meter and whenever it reached ten, it would explode, causing Luigi to drop to the ground.
  • In the end of Space World 2000, a one second video of three blue ghosts (which resembled Blue Twirlers) who were sitting around a table playing poker was shown, they make a cameo in the ending of the game, on a part of the Ghost Portrificationizer.
  • The Mansion looked different, the exterior had no chimneys, lesser windows, a longer walkway and less graves outside the mansion.
  • Several different kinds of mansions were planned for the final game, including an apartment complex, a dollhouse, a ninja mansion and a Japanese-style house. The game was originally conceptualized to resemble the Mario series more closely, but strayed when the haunted western mansion concept took priority.[2]
  • Page 39 of the Nintendo Power issue of this game gives note of the Safari Room having a hunter Portrait Ghost who wants to add Luigi to his collection, it is unknown why he was removed from the final game.[3]

Ghost differences
