- “Whoa! It's like a spotlight for my gut!”
- —Bowser, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
The Boo-ray Machine is a machine in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. It was built by Yikk before his death. The name is a play on "x-ray machine" and may also be a play on "Blu-ray," an optical disc format that was relatively new at the time of the game's release. Yikk explains that the light makes the insides of one's body visible and that it shows Boo transparency waves, giving off light and other special properties. Once Bowser activates the machine (by punching the button in the original game, or standing on the platform in the remake), Mario and Luigi, who are inside Bowser to pursue Durmite, are able to access more of the Energy Hold, where they follow after Durmite. If Bowser keeps the Boo-ray Machine activated, Mario and Luigi may see Hidden Blocks somewhere. If Bowser deactivates it, several Boo-like blocks may appear as platforms.
