Regarding this
Hey, I'm no troll! I mean, I bother and jokingly harass people all the time on this website, but it's good fun I swear!

But, this was my paragraph, as is most of this article; these first four paragraphs were copyedited by, whose writing style I admire. This paragraph, as do the other three, are a general (and very short) summary of the article that follows (see this for a summary of how we do them). This section covers everything under the development and release sections, therefore summarizing the "Development", "Gameplay", "Characters", "Graphics and world building", and "Marketing and release" sections all in a short paragraph.

Therefore, everything in this paragraph is going to be generalized, but it's all detailed and cited under these sections. I trust myself that that's true, because I love writing development sections and really obsess over them, so much that I sometimes lose steam after writing them and don't finish the rest of the article... such is the case with this one.

 * But welcome to Wikipedia! And I do trust your judgement. Garbage like this must go, and is unfortunately common in video game articles (see WP:GAMECRUFT). Panini!  • 🥪 03:59, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello! I'm new to this, but am still confused - why shouldn't initial paragraphs include citations?  Shouldn't that be where they're needed most?
 * In addition, the tone of this paragraph is very negative. The Wired and IGN article barely mention the 2002 era 3D experiments, and it wasn't "failed" as much as it was a part of Nintendo's R&D projects at the time?  I also don't see any references describing the game as "outsourced" or "hands off" in development - am I just not seeing them?  Nintendo has many second party developers, and never uses such language.
 * I'm not a Luigi's Mansion 2 die hard or anything (is anyone?). But this paragraph is very negative and offers little specific information, with no sources directly cited within it.  Maybe we expand the development details more, and lose this more vague paragraph at the top? BlazeFielding (talk) 05:35, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Also, totally separate of this quarrel, it's crazy to me that most of these games don't have arcade-specific wikipedia articles:
 * Raw Thrills - Wikipedia
 * Is there a guide to writing a wikipeida article from scratch you'd recommend? Thanks! BlazeFielding (talk) 05:40, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
