Footage has been uploaded to YouTube showing Luigi’s Mansion Arcade, which recently came to Japan. We’ve posted the video below.

In the footage, you can see the new bomb item. This can be thrown at shielded Greenies to break their defense and make them immediately susceptible to capture. It’s a bit different compared to how things were handled in Dark Moon, since Luigi usually needed to reveal them using the Dark Light first, weave his way behind it, flash it with the strobe light to make the Greenie drop its armor, and then repeat flash it again to activate the capture sequence.

Square Enix’s latest update on Dragon Quest VIII sheds new light on the game’s camera features.

It will be possible to enter camera mode by hitting the start button. Players can then take photos of different scenes, all of which are saved to the SD card. Photos can also be taken with the character and your favorite party character.

Also detailed today are Dragon Quest VIII’s “Photos Quests”. When players visit the game’s town, they’ll come across the “Photographer Fort” NPC. He’ll give you his notebook of quests that can be checked at any time. There are quests in which players take pictures of rare items and monsters, along with famous locations. Also, some of these quests will earn you more stamps than others.
