This form comes equipped with a hammer capable of destroying stone blocks and even Thwomps, and is an effective weapon against nearly every enemy.

*NoRespectGuy: This depends from game to game, but Luigi is prone to receive this treatment, especially in the RPG games. He's costantly compared to his brother, he's the butt of the joke a lot of the time, many people don't remember his name, Bowser often doesn't take him seriously and doesn't bother to call him by name, he gets criticized by many Toads or some of his friends for getting scared so easily, most characters in the franchise make fun of him and he tends to be accused of being a coward. The characters who consistently respect his abilities and don't treat him like a joke are few, like Mario, Daisy and Professor E. Gadd, though he too tends to make fun of him from time to time, and as his big brother, Mario does tease him at times, but of course, he loves Luigi, and he knows that he can be just as competent and heroic as he is.

* DudeWheresMyRespect: Luigi gets next to no credit for his actions, no matter how brave or daring (or how much more impressive his feats are relative to his cowardice). This is especially galling in that most of his detractors are ''the Toads'', the little mushroom-caps whose main claims to fame are being cowards and generally useless in the face of danger. Take ''Super Mario 64 DS'', for example, where about half of the Toads rag on him even while he's trying to save them from being imprisoned in the walls, and in ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiPartnersInTime'', it's clear that the Toads show favouritism towards Mario. Even though he's used to it, he's... not exactly happy about this.

* FriendToAllLivingThings: {{Implied|Trope}}. In the original ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion'', if you scan the mounted deer heads and leopard skin rugs in the Safari Room with the Game Boy Horror, Luigi expresses sadness and disgust at the idea of animals being treated in such ways.

* TheSoCalledCoward: The accusation of being a coward mainly coming from [[{{Hypocrite}} Toads who run about screaming and doing nothing whenever Bowser comes to kidnap the princess again.]] When the chips are down, Luigi frequently pulls through. The ''Luigi's Mansion'' series in particular puts the spotlight on him repeatedly, saving the day when Mario is otherwise unable to due to getting captured as well.

** After Charles Martinet stopped voicing the characters in the franchise, he was succeeded by Kevin Afghani in his roles. His Luigi voice is very similiar to Martinet.

Added DiffLines:
** 2013 was Advertising/TheYearOfLuigi: during this time, Luigi was put front-and-center in marketing materials and a number of games released that gave him significant billing. ''VideoGame/LuigisMansionDarkMoon'' released with him as the only playable character once more, ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiDreamTeam'' had put even stronger emphasis on Luigi's side of the ''Mario & Luigi'' series by making him more plot-relevant and having a number of Luigi-centric game mechanics, ''VideoGame/NewSuperLuigiU'' was a ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros'' title lacked Mario and gave every character Luigi's signature high jump and low traction, and ''[[VideoGame/DrMario Dr. Luigi]]'' featured Luigi as the main character with a new mode giving him [[LetterMotif L-shaped capsules]] as a game mechanic. Even ''VideoGame/SuperMario3DWorld'' and ''VideoGame/CaptainToadTreasureTracker'', which didn't give him as significant of a role, snuck in Luigi-themed {{Easter Egg}}s as another nod to the Year of Luigi.
