This is good news for gamers who like owning a physical product. It also gives players a chance to get a cool green box to add to their Wii U game collection.
New Super Luigi U is a remix of the original Wii U platformer that is completely devoid of Mario. This is Luigi’s gig and he won’t have to worry about his older brother overshadowing him.
