Random: Introducing Gooigi, Your New Co-Op Partner In Luigi's Mansion

Waaaagoooigi!
Can't claim credit for this but this needs to happen.

Wait, you changed the title again. What was wrong with saying this was for luigi's mansion on 3DS?

Were getting one on switch too, right?

You guys keep changing the subtext!

Gooigi is my hero.

Gooigi as Luigi’s echo fighter

Gooigi is love, Gooigi is life

Googette

Inb4 goo versions of all the other characters.

Apparently he's going out with Princess Goosy, a real doozy.

Or perhaps it was Prince Gaisy.

@ilikeike I was about to say the exact same thing

@Xaessya Oh please no

...Gooigi....ugh...the internet is going to have fun with this one.

Why isn't this a candy yet?!

Googie 4 life

Metal Mario, Pink Gold Peach, Gooigi. Gotta love the clones. Though this one seems to have a bit of heart

This is a disgrace.

Wagooigi will ALWAYS be the original artistic vision.

Gooigi × Peachette

I ship it.

Ew.....
Slimy Luigi.

Weird how they requested this not to be revealed until now.

Gooigi....coming to smash bros switch soon....as a DLC character.

Been hearing complaints (the PB and Jeff playthrough) that 2 player mode kinda chugs and drops frames. Is this actually a thing?

I'm sure it'll be on a list of potential unlockable characters for the next Mario Kart and other Mario related games

I don't understand. We already knew about this guy. He was introduced in the latest Direct (09-13-2018)! Though he wasn't named then.

I don't like it. Seems really lazy to me. So many characters in the Mario canon as it is and they just go with the re-color route. It's not the 1990s anymore, I feel like they could have worked one more character into the game for this role.

Gooey G. would have been more fun. Rapping ectoplasm.

We're going to get this crap in Mario Kart at some point instead of E.Gadd or Diddy or Funky aren't we?

I am unpleasant to be around and have no friends. Thus, it's unlikely I'll every be blessed with Gooigi's presence since he's local multiplayer only.

Krysta's O fac... i mean scared face at the still of that video......

Good to know Luigi has a stunt double ready for his money shot should he ever take up a career in pron.

And this is newsworthy because...?

Also, I find it weird that in the review it was said that you could not reveal its name (as if it was a major spoiler of sorts) and then post an entire article about his name.
Am I missing something or is this just plain stupid?

He literally looks like a placeholder they were too lazy to replace.

@SuperGhirahim64 @Sgt-Jack-V @Heavyarms55 Adding an already established character would actually take way more work, as the different proportions would directly affect both the animations and gameplay, which would require a lot of adjustments in order for everything to work properly. This is all much harder than simply taking the player-character-model and applying a different material to it. And mind you, all this work would have to be added on top of the actual co-op system.

The developers probably thought it would be too much work for little pay-off.

@MimoDX2 Dang, you beat me to it. But you pretty much got it.

Adding a whole unique character (as cool as it would've been) is far more work than just re-texturing Base Luigi's model to make Gooigi.

And even if one imported a character model from a different game, you would then have to assure that the way they were built/designed for that other game doesnt "break" when moving in yours.

Lets-a-goo!

So would you call the body severed soul of Luigi in the Castlevania Smash reveal Booigi?

haha what a great name

@Elvie There's already a boo in the game named that.

@Giygas_95 Really? Well, you can tell I never played any of these games.

@Elvie Yep, it's the boo in the fortune teller's room! Definitely try it if you're interested. Luigi's Mansion is short but so much fun.

Oh great. Now will have idiots throwing fits over "why isn't Gooigi in Smash?!"
