  • Today we talk about the Year of Luigi, one of Nintendo's most notable anniversaries, and discuss pretty much everything having to do with the year, from the games to the merchandise, to even the obscure contests and competitions that happened throughout its run in 2013 and 2014, and even cover topics like the Nintendo World New York celebrations and the Month of Luigi!! Enjoy!!
    Also apologies for this taking so long, as you can tell this was meant to be out in 2022 but it is what it is. Thank you so much for supporting me and hopefully I can continue earning your support through 2023 as well! Love y'all :)

      If we’re talking reskins I would’ve loved a Super Luigi Land which would basically be a SML remake but greatly fleshes out Sarasaland (in the NSMB Style if you wanna cut Nintendo some slack), then when you beat the game you can playthrough it again as Daisy with her triple jump from Mario Run but her campaign would be harder. It would be a simple remake not trying too hard or anything and I’m sure Luigi being the great gentleman he is would love sharing the spotlight with his sweetheart Daisy.

    I really don't think the Year of Luigi is the reason Nintendo doesn't do any cool anniversary stuff anymore.
    The Year of Luigi was really just a happy accident. As you mentioned in the video, Dark Moon had already been known about for years. Dream Team had also been in development for quite a few years as well. I feel like they realized both games were releasing in 2013, and that it was also Luigi's 30th anniversary, and they were like "hey, what a coincidence! We could celebrate this!"
    NSLU may have already been an idea in their head, but who knows? Maybe they had an idea for DLC and decided to make it Luigi themed due to the anniversary. And of course a lot of the smaller stuff like Dr. Luigi, 8-bit Luigis, and the Luigi versions of SMB1 and Mario Bros were created after they decided to do the Year of Luigi.
    The sales issue was likely barely relevant to Luigi at all, so I don't think they would've saw it as a reason to stop doing celebrations like that.
    Nintendo as a whole has never really done anything that grand for anniversaries. Skyward Sword HD was just a release happening that they tied into the 35th Zelda anniversary. And 3D All-Stars was a rushed game, probably just made out of an obligation to celebrate. We know Super Mario 35 was in development for quite awhile, but other than that I don't think they had many plans.
    The actual celebration for Mario & Zelda anniversaries were the novelty Game & Watch systems they released.
    Also, as a fun sidenote... As a kid I was absolutely convinced that 2014 would be the Year of Donkey Kong. Tropical Freeze was coming out, it was the 20th Anniversary of the original Donkey Kong Country, and Tropical Freeze's opening has DK celebrating his birthday. I was getting all pumped up for games like a successor to Donkey Kong 64, and maybe some smaller spin-offs like a DK Jungle Climber sequel. And then it never came lol.

    • @BlazinBaconYT
      @BlazinBaconYT  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Mmmm I see your point. The Game and Watches for Mario and Zelda were a really nice novelty and I would love to get them one day haha
      And man what I wouldn't do for a Year of Donkey Kong. That's literally one of my favorite Nintendo franchises so that would have had me over the moon in 2014 XD One day he will get his recognition

    To be completely fair, the Year of Luigi started at a time where Nintendo were starting to fall apart at the seams because of the Wii U’s disastrous launch. At the very least, I’m glad to see that this hasn’t offset Nintendo from making more Luigi-based content (like Luigi’s Mansion 3) and it would be fun to imagine a Year of Luigi nowadays, where they’re more financially comfortable.
    It’s funny the more I think about it; the Sonic series made 3 games where the main character wasn’t Sonic, then they put those games on devices that didn’t sell well (which in turn made those games not sell well), then chalked the failures of those games up to their audiences not wanting to see more of the side characters and stopped. The contrast here is really funny lmao

    and yea i do wish nintendo would do stuff like this again. they played it too safe wit zelda’s and mario’s 35th tbh. what they did was forgettable jus a few years later… even if nintendo lost half a billion, year of luigi was still memorable a decade later.
