Super mario 64 where to find luigi

Luigi would not join his brother in the 3D game-scape until he was included in Mario Kart Luigi would have to wait eight years in order to officially be a part of Super Mario 64 , albeit in a remake. In , Nintendo released Super Mario 64 DS , a remake of the platforming classic for the launch of the two-screened handheld device.

Unfortunately Luigi still wouldn't get the limelight, since Yoshi was made the de facto protagonist in Super Mario 64 DS , arriving late to Peach's castle and having to find the other three playable characters within.

Luigi remains Mario's most faithful companion, but Luigi as a playable character being excluded from Super Mario 64 shaped his future in the 3D platforming franchise. He still remains the default number two in games that involve multiple players, and he's had his own success with games like Luigi's Mansion , but Mario's revolutionary role in Super Mario 64 only increased the already growing gap between the two brothers' stardoms.

Image: Nintendo. The leaked and restored Luigi assets inserted into Super Mario Luigi being hidden somewhere in Super Mario 64 has long been an urban legend. It was something I remember hearing about at school, reading on old forums. If only you did this , I was told, Mario's missing brother might finally appear.

Well, it's been 25 years, but Luigi has finally been found. Not within the inner workings of any Mario 64 copy you might own, mind, but in the source code of the game uncovered as part of this weekend's so-called "gigaleak" of secret Nintendo development information. Within the leak are Super Mario 64 development files for Luigi's model, which fans have now pulled apart, stuck together and showcased for the first time.

The discovery of Luigi within the game's development files is an astonishing find - but one that's not entirely unexpected. Fans have argued to what extent Luigi was ever implemented or hidden within Super Mario 64 ever since the publication of a interview with Shigeru Miyamoto, within the game's official strategy guide thanks, Shmuplations.

In it, Miyamoto confirmed the second plumber had indeed been intended to appear. So ends a quarter century-long hunt for Mario's lost brother - although fans are still poring through the game's files for more secrets. Birdo next?
