Luigi's Mansion 2 Idea

[JackMan]

You're using Star Wars logic here.
The originals were fine without sequels, but they made some.

um... what? both trilogies were planned out before work on "A New Hope" began. That was supposed to be a set while Luigi's Mansion was supposed to be a single game.
I would like to know what source you got that knowledge from; "A New Hope" was meant to be the only movie, however since it did so well, writing began for sequels, and the prequels then began being written.

I mean sure, they /can/ add a sequel, but it doesn't have "tons of potential".
I disagree entirely, but I suppose that's an opinion.

The most common reason behind game sequels is "same engine, more money". That's why cult classics don't get many sequels, they didnt sell enough the first time around.
Agreed.

IGN gave LM a 7.0 score. why the hell would nintendo spend effort on a sequel to a 7.0 game? Why not spend the manpower on a better game that has a chance to succeed?
IGN gives great games low scores all the time. They don't base their reviews on much else than gameplay, audio, and graphics. It sold the system quite well for a launch title.

Sir, you seem to base your opinions on economic varieties.
I'm not interested in a sequel to further sales, I'm interested because I think the game deserves a sequel.
