In the Luigi's Mansion series, the second player plumber isn't catching ghosts and collecting cash for fun: he's keeping up with his astonishingly high cost of living. Between the invisible costs of owning a mansion and a high IRS tax burden, here's how Luigi's Mansion is bankrupting Luigi and his soul.
Much of gaming Twitter and Reddit consists of gamers impatiently waiting on drawn out releases, complaining about in-game purchases, and general kvetching about storytelling, bugs, and other complaint-worthy offenses. The grievances and opinions are everywhere. On Saturday, Twitter user @MommyBigDick sought to consolidate some takes that most gamers would agree with. There are some negative takes, some positive ones, and then, of course, ideas that people really want to come to fruition. While many of these opinions are a bit over our amateur gamer heads, we've put some of the most popular in this gallery for easy perusal. If you want to see more, head over to the thread.Despite the positive nature of the tweet, we're sure that there's plenty for opinionated gamers to argue with.
Intrigue. Mystery. Memeability. Just a few words that you could associate with the internet's favorite Mario character, the incomparable Waluigi. The Super Mario franchise is one of the most recognizable video game series on the planet, but of all its colorful cast Waluigi is the one who has captured the most hearts and minds across social media.
It was no surprise when last week, fans went wild after Nintendo released a flirtatious, rose-brandishing render of him in a YouTube video. So wild, in fact, that some reactions brought up uncomfortable reminders of Rule 34.
As if that wasn't enough, he also has a new look in the upcoming Mario Golf: Super Rush for all his admirers' worshipping needs. If that's not an excuse to put together a dubious array of memes in his honor, then nothing is. Nobody cheats better than Waluigi, because how could you betray that beautiful face?
Mario's video games tend to be pretty tame and straightforward, but any time he warps into another medium things get freaking wild. From R-Rated manga to adult videos to ice capades, Mario's non-gaming adventures are mostly experiences Nintendo probably wants to keep buried. But we're unearthing them, because this... is CanonBall.
We never thought this day would come, but alas, here we are. Yes, today is March 31, 2021—the death day of everyone's favorite little Italian plumber. Okay, Mario isn't actually dead, per se. The joke started when Nintendo announced that end-of-service for Super Mario Bros. 35 and end-of-sale for a number of Super Mario products would be...executed...on March 31. Since the announcement, there's been a build up of 'Mario is dead' memes. Well, the day has finally come and fans all over Twitter are posting their final jokes. Looks like Mario has mama'd his last mia.
Yesterday it was March 10th, which is Mario Day! Mar-10...get it? Anyway, we thought we'd gather up a bunch of dumb and dank Mario memes for all the nostalgic gamers out there who wish they could fire up that old N64 that's somewhere collecting dust in their mom's basement. Enjoy these fun memes featuring everyone's favorite adorable Italian plumber.

Gamers rise up! No matter what your preferred console is, it's a pretty exciting time for gamers.

If you're stoked about gaming as much as we are, you'll likely get a kick out of these relatable memes made by gamers for gamers.
On this day in 2006, Nintendo released the first Wii ever to gamers all over the world. The motion sensing tech may not impress many today, but anyone who had a Wii as a kid will remember how excitingly novel (and awkward) it felt to play Wii Sports with the family for the first time. Sadly, last year the Wii era came to an end after Ubisoft released the final game for the console.
We've collected some nerdy Wii memes from over the years to commemorate the day and hope our fellow gamers enjoy them as much as wii did.
This one goes out to all the gamers. We know most of you are gaming your quarantine away with your fancy games. But there was a time when people had to deal with shitty controllers, bad graphics, and worse internet. These pics are a shoutout to those times. Let's pour some Mountain Dew out for 'em.
If you're in the mood to feel judged, then these trending dank memes are for you. They feature video game director Masahiro Sakurai (creator of Kirby and Super Smash Bros) telling us how not to play a game. It's been used across every dank corner of the internet, and we gotta say that we're fans of it.
We share a lot of general gaming meme galleries, but why not show some love for a classic? Nintendo's original The Legend of Zelda was first released in 1986, but since then there have been over twenty Zelda releases and a ton of spin-offs. It only makes sense that the internet would churn out a lot of dank memes dedicated to the game and its characters. And we've got a bunch of 'em right here for you.
With many gaming-inclined people stuck indoors, it seems like everyone and their mom has been playing Animal Crossing. The latest iteration of the game, called New Horizons, was released on March 20th for Nintendo Switch. The game's popularity and a world on lockdown has made it almost impossible for anyone to buy the system. It's also made it so the internet is absolutely flush with Animal Crossing memes. And we've got a lot of them right here.
