Luigi jumps a little higher, and the timing I think is little different with him too.

He jumps higher, runs faster and he slips when he walks or land from a jump.

It can really get on your nerves. I love the character tough.

Off topic--> Luigi's Mansion rocks!!

To get rid of the characterless Mario, mostly. :P I swapped to Luigi every chance I could since I like Luigi so much more.

As everyone has said he jumps higher, just like in Super Mario 2. It's great for the green stars that you have to jump high to get. I had trouble getting some of them with Mario, but after switching to Luigi I got them easily.

He jumps higher, is faster, and has way less traction. I always pick him over Mario.

That's one of life's biggest questions. What is the point of Luigi? I've been gaming for many years and I still don't know...

The point of Luigi is that he is the super-fun-awesome version of Mario, and the best character Nintendo ever made, VIVA LA LUIGI.

He makes Mario look way better than he actually is.

In Galaxy or just in general? The only reason Luigi exists is because they needed a different character for player 2 to use back in the day. That's pretty much it. They've since made his character pretty abhorrent, as he whines constantly and is afraid of his own shadow.

Luigi is one of few characters in the Mushroom Kingdom who I think has the most character. Plus, they're the Mario Bros. and Mario needs a brother. That brother is Luigi.
