They say horror conforms to the law of diminishing returns, though poor Luigi doesn’t seem to have had the memo. As he takes his first trembling steps onto the 15th floor of a haunted hotel – by which time he’s also explored two basement floors and the mezzanine – you’d think he’d be a little less freaked out by the spooky goings-on around him. In fairness, it’s his cowardice (some might call it pragmatic self preservation) that first keeps him alive when Mario, Peach and three Toads are captured and imprisoned within paintings by a familiar returning villain. Even so, by this stage, possible to have too much of a good thing.
