If you're a fan of Mario platformers, chances are you already know Luigi—a staple of gaming’s Player 2 experience. The green-clad brother of Mario has spent years lurking in his older twin’s shadow, only occasionally breaking free for a star turn in his own Luigi’s Mansion series. As we look ahead to the upcoming Switch 2, it’s the perfect moment to celebrate Luigi and all his appearances on Nintendo’s current console.
