I'm guessing by the posts that Jackman has thanked in this thread he doesn't know the member base well enough to know their tone or he might just be a little slow.
Either way I'm going to say this.
Luigi's Mansion does not need a Sequel. Should Luigi have more of his own games? Well thats up to Nintendo to decide but if he does get more of his own games I personally see nothing wrong with that.
How can you tell if something needs a Sequel or not? Thats depends on how well does the thing wraps itself up, whether game, movie, book, or whatever.
Luigi's Mansion wrapped itself up to the point that there is nothing left to make a sequel out of.
Sure you could argue that Disgaea and Dark Cloud has sequels but the original games wrapped up the stories pretty well. Well the thing is that those games are not true sequels. Meaning that they do not follow the future path of the storyline that they just fed you and infact the only way they can be consider sequels is over the fact that they share characters and sometimes takes place in the same setting or has a common ground with the first game but they still don't follow the original storyline of the first game.
And before any of you start any bullshit on this, both Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest are in leagues of their own.
Also Jackman, where are you getting that George Lucas didn't plan out the whole series when it was made? The fact that a lot of the cultures and planets were pretty well thought out kinda proves that he had this thought in his head: "Hey, if this movie does well, I'll make more and if not then I'll just scrap the project but just in case I should plan ahead." and since it did well he made more.
