Once Luigi has secured all the cities whose doors are located on a floor of the castle, Luigi must use a [[Fire Flower|fire flower]] collected in the cities to defeat them using their only weakness - [[Fire Mario|fire]]. | Once Luigi has secured all the cities whose doors are located on a floor of the castle, Luigi must use a [[Fire Flower|fire flower]] collected in the cities to defeat them using their only weakness - [[Fire Mario|fire]]. | ||
In addition, there was a later enhanced edition known as the ''CD-ROM Deluxe'' version. It included full-on voice acting to go along with the dialogue, although not all of the in-game text matched the audio exactly. The voice actors are known (Kathy Fitzgerald, Rob Wallace, Bob Sorenson, Nicholas Glaeser, David Gill), but the game does not specify which of them supplied which voices. There are also some graphical changes, such as loading screens when the screen is black, and icons of [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], [[Toad]] | In addition, there was a later enhanced edition known as the ''CD-ROM Deluxe'' version.

There are also some graphical changes, such as loading screens when the screen is black, and icons of [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], [[Toad]] and [[Donkey Kong]] replace a recurring phone call NPC (although the old dialogue was not changed on-screen). The viewings of every historic spot in particular were originally recreated and shown in garish coloring. The ''CD-ROM Deluxe'' version replaces most of these pictures with realistic photographs and even live-action video clips to represent the landmarks, with some exceptions carried over from the floppy disk version. | ||

*A reporter says that "Montreal is an island in the St. Lawrence River", which is misleading: the player visits the city of Montreal, which is contained within, but distinct from, the {{wp|Island of Montreal}}. | |||
*A scientist says that Montreal means "royal mount", which is misleading: it actually takes its name from "Mount Royal" which is a mountain located in the center of the island, in the 16th century, "Réal" was a common way of saying "Royal" in French. | |||
*The image of the [[Dome (item)|Dome]] looks nothing like the actual dome of {{wp|Saint Joseph's Oratory}} (perhaps coincidentally, it resembles the {{wp|Montreal Biosphère}}). | |||
*A reporter suggests that the Dome is only smaller than that of the one on {{wp|St. Peter's Basilica}} in [[Rome]]; this is very much incorrect.<ref>{{cite|author=Wikipedia contributors|title="List of largest domes"|publisher=Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia|date=January 4, 2018|url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_domes|accessdate=February 5, 2018}}</ref> | |||
