Although he is always upstaged by his fat brother, Mario, Luigi is obviously more skilled. He can
run faster,
jump higher, and doesn't eat as many pizzas. He also sucks nasty ghosts up with his trusty Poltergust 3,000. He can do all of this... and all Mario can do is shoot
water at
stuff with FLUDD. Luigi isn't just the most underrated Mario character, but the most underrated Nintendo character too.
In
2D platformers, Player 2 is always Luigi. Luigi has only had two games starring him: Mario Is Missing, which shunned Luigi more, it being a crappy edutainment game, and Luigi's Mansion, which was a lot
better and introduced the trusty Poltergust 3,000. Both of these involved Luigi saving Mario, which shows how lucky that fat-ass is.
