In Luigi's Mansion, Luigi steps out from the shadow of his brother Mario and into the gloomy shadows of a very haunted house in this, his first-ever starring role. When Luigi learns that he's the proud new owner of a creepy old mansion, he's thrilled. Of course, his feelings immediately shift when his brother, the storied Mario, disappears from the house. Now, you'll have to help Luigi track his brother down, making your way through expansive 3D levels. Each stage is packed with ghosts and ghouls to put you on edge; and you'll be armed with a flashlight and a vacuum cleaner to help you capture your foes. Armed with a flashlight and a customized vacuum cleaner, Luigi must rid the mansion of Boos and ghouls — and find his missing brother to boot!

3.0-151 Windows Vista Intel Pentium P6100 @ 2 GHz Intel HD graphics Works normally and fully playable but the graphics is all pixelated. To get a rid from the pixels is needed to change the resolution to 1280x720.
3.0-221 Windows 7 Intel Core i7-2620M @ 2.7 GHz Intel HD 3000 Close to perfect. Do not run in DX9 or OpenGL for it will crash or have black-screen. Running at 720P at 30FPS consistently. No hitches with game play but use DX11 for Intel HD Graphics. No slowing down during boss fights either. Also running on a laptop. cohn
3.0-235 Windows 7 AMD Phenom II X6 @ 3.2 GHz AMD Radeon HD 5750 Perfect, but normal settings caused weird graphical problems. The screen seemed to have purple EFB problems. Disabling EFB turned them black. Checking "Ignore Format Changes" got rid of them.

4.0 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-3570K @ 3.4 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Works well but shadows are still missing, atmosphere of the game is ruined because of this.
4.0.1 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-3570K @ 4.4 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 Game is 100% playable. Shadows do not work in 4.0.1 still. OpenGL backend AA and AF are 100% working. Game runs just fine. Set EFB copies to "Texture" to help with low resolution mirrors and keep texture accuracy to fast to give you a speedup. Kilobytez95

4.0-7481 Windows 10 Intel Core M-5y71 @1.2 GHz Intel HD Graphics 5300 Unplayable, crashes entire emulator in OS when at start screen upon pressing start. Applies to 4.0-5283 thru current (4.0-7481) and likely many, many more builds prior to 4.0-5283. This issue does not exist for the last stable version, 4.0.2. Presumably GPU and/or OS dependent. Anonymous user
4.0-7725 Windows 7 AMD Phenom II X4 965 @ 3.4 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Playable. Almost perfect. The only small issue I have detected is that the blurry effect on Mario's picture in King Boo's Hall is not emulated properly like in the actual game. At least within the European version. Kenny
4.0-8044 Windows 10 Intel Core i5-4690K @ 4.2 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Fully playable: Runs well above full speed on the OpenGL backend. Haven't encountered any problems. Aplayer12345

Played the game from start to finish (no Hidden Mansion). No issues except for the Mario Portrait Blur effect not working.
