Extremely early in the game after maybe an hours play in total but it seems to be another winner in the series. So far the game is full of all the usual visual little touches and flourishes that marks the series out as being, randomly, one of Nintendo's best looking series. Luigi has a whole new set of little mannerisms as he rummages round the hotel, you quickly get your backpack back (though it seems fairly randomly located) and whilst I'm sure there'll be plenty of ideas scattered through the game so far it's very much more of what the previous games contained.
It'll just be me but having worked through the second entry not long ago I'm finding the aiming on the right stick fiddly, but otherwise it broadly already has a bit more of an original LM vibe about it. Very interested to see if having that console structure back allows it to breathe out in a way that tops the previous efforts.
