Does anyone notice that all of the bosses are seen somewhere in their floor?Tomz123 (talk)

Fan Fiction Style

I've tried to fix this article so that it doesn't read like a story anymore. Not having played this game, however, I cannot say for sure if the things I left in (like Luigi's allegedly noticing that the Boo Radar has started flashing) actually happen in the game (e.g. in cutscenes) or were just made up for story-telling reasons. Would be nice if someone could check if anything else needs to be removed.--vellidragon 21:38, 21 September 2011 (EDT)

Yes, his boo radar flashes a lot right before he meets Boolossus. EDIT: But he doesn't physically check it, it's still during gameplay when Luigi meets the circle of Boos BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C)
Ok, thank you very much; edited that part accordingly. If Luigi doesn't actually check the Boo Radar, the article shouldn't claim that he does.--vellidragon 13:38, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

Appearance in Luigi's Mansion 2?

In the Japanese version of Luigi's Mansion 2, "Big Boo" is called Jumbo Teresa, which is also Boolussus's name. The wiki already has at least two instances of other misnamed Boos being corrected, so maybe that should also be the case here? LinkTheLefty (talk) 10:36, 13 October 2014 (EDT)

As previously observed, the Big Boo from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is none other than Boolossus...in the Japanese version. In at least the English release, it is referred to as Big Boo, but it should mentioned that King Boo is also split from his Sunshine self, not to mention we also deem the Big Boo from Super Mario 64 DS to be the more familiar King Boo (primarily based on the Japanese names). This Boo character wouldn't be the first to be considered misnamed. I anticipate the counterargument would be its design, but the main King Boo himself already had changes over the years from his face to his size, so it seems very likely to me Boolossus and "Big Boo" were meant to be one in the same as they pretty much match the same role and gimmick in the Luigi's Mansion series.

Yes, that Big Boo is Boolossus

  1. LinkTheLefty (talk) Per proposal.

No, that is a separate character

  1. Toadbrigade5 (talk) No resemblance whatsoever. Different attacks, etc...

Comments

@Toadbrigade5: On attacks/resemblance - compare the times King Boo has been fought (Luigi's Mansion, Dark Moon, Super Princess Peach, ...). LinkTheLefty (talk) 02:11, 8 December 2014 (EST)
