Luigi's Mansion for the Nintendo 3DS is the remake of the popular GameCube game. It includes several new features such as amiibo compatibility, a new Boss Rush mode and the option to use the Strobulb from the sequel. And like the original was planned to be, it's in eye-popping 3D!

Unused Audio

To do: There are unused tracks/jingles from the original and duplicates/variants of used music. There appear to be early (duplicate?) Bogmire sounds. Some of them are prefixed with "BF" and some are prefixed with "SD".

Early Game Boy Horror Ringtone

JA_SE_SYS_CALL_FROM_DOCTOR (label SY_CALLDct0) is an early ringtone for the calls from E. Gadd.

Hidden Objects and Geometry

Invisible Furniture

Like in the GameCube original, there is an invisible poster on the wall of The Twins' Room that Luigi can interact with. It has no collision and cannot be scanned using the Game Boy Horror. However, an invisible object located on the Roof in the original was removed. It's still there in the final boss map, but Luigi doesn't say anything upon scanning it anymore.

Unseen Training Room Wall

Like the original game, the back wall of the Training Room is modeled, but you can't see behind you because you can't use the Game Boy Horror in this area. However, this time it is more detailed.
