Nintendo NX: 10 Essential Video Games That Must Be Launch Titles

6. Luigi's Mansion 3

The original Luigi's Mansion released on the GameCube way back in 2001, and the 3DS sequel, Dark Moon, landed in 2013 to rapturous reviews and strong sales that surely told Nintendo this was a franchise worth pursuing.

Rumours have been swirling for months that a third game is nearing the end of development and will be part of the NX's launch lineup. Given the strong response to Dark Moon, it's easy to believe.

The rumours also claim that the game was moved over from Wii U development to the NX, and will make use of the platform's apparent haptic feedback capabilities when capturing ghosts. Expect Luigi's Mansion 3 to be a flagship title when Nintendo finally unveils the new platform.
