Since Luigi's Mansion he's been labeled as a chicken. I think the only other games he showed fear was in Mario & Luigi ( Correct me if I'm wrong, I wouldn't know, I have yet to play those games ).

What other game has he ever been afraid in hmmmm!?

In Luigi's Mansion he was scared. But you would be too if you where alone in a dark mansion FILLED with ghosts and spirits!!! Armed with an enhanced vacuum and flashlight! And a few mushroom people that don't help.

All of a sudden he became afraid of everything overnight because of that game.

Is his new fearful personality added by how he almost never goes on adventures? Or that he's supposidly shy or something!?

Anyway, bottom line why does everone say he's a coward because he went into the haunted mansion!? He seems a lot braver than anyone else to me!

He gets scared in Mario Party, and DDR:MM.

Also, if you get Luigi's health down to 1 or 5, (Yes, I know it's cruel,) He'll scream Mario! in a cowradly way.

In Mario Strikers, he'll siver "N-N-Next level games." That's complete and udder BS, I'm telling you. Why is he afraid of everything? I'm tired of it, really.

He needed more differentiation from Mario, and if I recall correctly, he's always been the more timid brother.

Is this a new use of "B&" I'm unaware of?

I'm guesing his cowardice stemmed from his Fist of Fear attack in Super Smash Bros. Plus he works well as the comedy relief character of the series.

Nintendo's obviously trying to justify making him 2P in the original Super Mario Bros. game by giving him a timid, scared of everything sidekick personality. And I honestly don't like the direction Nintendo took with Luigi, to be honest. I mean, if you want to make Luigi less decisive than Mario, great. But making him afraid of everything, as Nintendo seems to be doing with their recent works, is just overdoing it to me. I don't know.

Yeah, it's pretty lame how Nintendo's flattened Luigi into such a static character. It's very corporate of them--almost as if they funded an internal marketing group to give the green bro a make-over. By the way, I agree: It all started with Luigi's Mansion.

Luigi is still heroic. Remember, he saved Princess Eclair and the Waffle Kingdom from the evil king Crepe, without any help from his older brother.

No no, not King Crepe. The Chestnut King. But that's besides the point.
In M&L:PiT he was portrayed as a "target" more than a coward. Throughout the course of the game, he's stepped on, whacked, chased, and several things fall on his head--Baby Mario, a shrooblet, an enormous block, and a hamer, to name a few.

I suggest you re-read the last chapter of Super Luigi. It clearly explains how Crepe was the true threat to the Waffle Kingdom, in his bid to restore the power of the Luff Empire. The Chestnut King was innocent.

I don't mind his timid nature, but Nintendo seem to be overexaggerating it.

That means B-and; banned. :O

Anyway, Luigi is funny as the more timid brother, but they overdid it, imo.
