Luigi's Mansion (series)

The Luigi's Mansion series is a series of action-adventure video games with a few light horror elements. It spans over three different systems and consists of three different games. It is the only series within the Mario franchise to have all of its games feature Luigi as the main protagonist, instead of Mario. A majority of the games in which Luigi is portrayed as the main character are in this series alone, as there are only five such games total. Throughout the series, Luigi takes on a ghost-hunting role by capturing various types of ghosts. The series commenced with the releases of Luigi's Mansion for the Nintendo GameCube which was followed by a sequel for the Nintendo 3DS and an arcade-based spinoff of the sequel.
