The original Luigi's Mansion is getting re-released on Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo announced during a Nintendo Direct Thursday.

Luigi's Mansion first launched in 2001 alongside the GameCube and was one of the first games to star Mario's brother Luigi. It was also the first game in the Luigi's Mansion series. In the game, Luigi enters a mansion filled with ghosts to save his brother and has to suck up all the ghosts in sight and face a handful of inventive bosses that haunt the mansion.

Luigi's Mansion comes out for the 3DS later this year.
