I am a critic. An amateur one, at that, but yes, I'm a critic. You don't have to agree with my opinion, but I just feel that Luigi's Mansion had a better atmosphere than its sequel did. It also had better controls and didn't have that stupid mission structure. Overall it really felt like Nintendo had to strip down the game to put it on the 3DS, and I think it would have been better if it had originally been designed for the Wii U.
It's not a bad game; I enjoy it, I really do. But I thought the original was better. Of course, this might all just be the nostalgic inside me.
