Luigi’s Mansion released as arcade game in Japan

While the Year of Luigi may be over, the man in green isn’t finished quite yet. Luigi’s Mansion is getting an arcade port in Japan which is being tested at select locations.

Interestingly, the machines seem to have been developed by Capcom who, while they haven’t worked on the Luigi’s Mansion series before, have been known to collaborate with Nintendo on other titles, such as the Legend of Zelda series.

We don’t know much about the game yet, such as whether or not it’s a port of another Luigi’s Mansion game, or it’s a standalone title. There’s also not much known about the story or gameplay. It does appear though that you have to enter an enclosed space to play.

There are some suggestions that this might be a starting point for a Wii U Luigi’s Mansion game. But, as per usual, nothing has been confirmed.

What do you guys think of this? Would a game like this bring you in to the arcades?
