Mean green hiding machine

Mean green hiding machine

Nintendo declared 2013 'the year of Luigi'. As we've almost come to the end of that year, I thought now would be an appropriate time to have a little fun with the little green fella. So, I've hidden him inside 10 screenshots from, er, reasonably modern games. Can you find him in each one?

There's a grand prize of 0 for the first person to find every Luigi (if you live in the US or Canada, we'll convert that sum to $s for you). Good luck and... oh wait, Nintendo says the year of Luigi is actually continuing in 2014. What is this? The financial year of Luigi? The academic year of Luigi? Oh, who cares, just have a bit of fun finding him in these screens.

Don't forget to click in the top right of each screen to enlarge it!
