SEGA Officially Announces Luigi's Mansion Arcade

[Tom Bombadildo]

SEGA has officially announced Luigi's Machine Arcade, an arcade version of Luigi's Mansion. The game features first-person gameplay, and so far 1 recurring location has been announced, Gloomy Mansion.

The game features a tutorial from series regular, Professor E Gadd, before battling spirits in familiar areas from the series. The only location announced currently is the second game's Gloomy Mansion.

The game is developed by Capcom, but, the game was officially announced by SEGA and is being featured on the SEGA booth at the upcoming Japan Amusement Expo. Interestingly, the game's initial location tests were conducted by Capcom, but the exact details of Nintendo's three way collaboration have yet to be announced.

It's unsure whether the machine will arrive in Europe or the US, but there are still some hopes and it has yet to be named a Japan exclusive.

EDIT: Of course, Arras has reminded me that the cabinet was spotted some few months back. You can check out that article here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/luigis-mansion-arcade-machine-tested-by-capcom.373672/

Sega releasing a Nintendo Arcade made by Capcom ... crazy!

Mansion of the Dead? Also, we knew this would happen almost a year ago, but it's still nice to have official confirmation, I guess.

The cabinet looks cool, reminds me of the Jurassic Park cabinet model back in the late 90's

I couldn't remember if we had a thread for that or not, I tried searching Luigi's Mansion but my search turned up nothing But searching Mansion Arcade Machine got it, so added to the OP.

There are they are just using lame skill games, crappy games that are versions of apps, extremely expensive or all of them.

Atleast we still have a few good retro arcades

Luigi's Mansion 3 on the Wii U would have been better than an Arcade machine that, even if it does get localized, will never show up anywhere near me. That's the same reason I am as of yet unable to play any of the Mario Kart Arcade games even though the first one has been around for like, a decade.

Dynasty Warriors x Zelda,
Pokemon x Tekken,
Sony making a Mario movie,
Sega making a Luigi arcade,
whats next?

Of all the Nintendo games to get arcade machines... well, I can't say I expected this one. Kind of weird that they'd do a Luigi's Mansion machine before anything with Smash, but I guess they might just be afraid of money and popularity.

Could be worse, they could make a pokemon tournament arcade machine!

Oh wait

This doesn't look much like Luigi's Mansion but more so of a 'Mansion of the Dead' like Arras stated. Kinda disappointing as I imagined the original NGC LM's as an awesome experience vacuuming ghosts.

Kind of depressing still that 3DS got the sequel and there's an arcade release now (albeit a different looking game), but all the Wii U gets is peanuts.

Sega does games of Nintendo fanchises? At least it's not as bad as the bootleg Nintendo games for Sega systems. *Hurrf...* Sorry, thinking about those wretched things made gag a bit...
