The speaker, who introduces himself as a game theory enthusiast, begins by discussing Luigi's Mansion, a game released over 15 years ago. He mentions that the game is a work of fiction and that the protagonist, Luigi, is an antiquated racial stereotype of Italian immigrants. The speaker then delves into the game's plot, where Luigi is forced to play second fiddle to Mario and has to navigate a haunted mansion.
The speaker then discusses the value of the mansion in the game, which he estimates to be around $1.3 million. He explains that the mansion's value is determined by its size, which he calculated to be 30,000 square feet, and its age, which he determined to be Victorian Second Empire style. He also mentions that the mansion is filled with treasure, including gems, coins, dollar bills, and gold bars, which he estimates to be worth over $500 million.
The speaker concludes by stating that while Luigi's mansion might not be worth all that much in real life, the treasure inside it makes Luigi a wealthy character in the game. He then ends the episode with a moral that Luigi, despite being the forgotten brother, is actually richer than many people in the real world.
