Template:Quote2 The Boo Radar is one of the features implemented into the Game Boy Horror in Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version. The function of it is to detect the presence of hidden Boos in the different rooms Luigi enters (though it also detects other spherical objects, such as Boo Balls and Bombs). It becomes functional only after Luigi accidentally releases every Boo in the mansion, as Professor E. Gadd calls him back to the lab to show him the Boo Radar's functionality. If the light on the top of the Game Boy Horror is blue, there are no Boos in the room. If it is yellow, there is a Boo (or a Boo Ball or Bomb) in the room. If the light is red, a Boo, Boo Ball, or Bomb is very close to Luigi. Before E. Gadd reveals the Boo Radar's purpose, the Boo Radar indicator is transparent and nonfunctional. When Luigi first enters the third floor balcony, the Boo Radar goes haywire anywhere he stands in the area due to the presence of 15 Boos gathered in a single place.
In Luigi's Mansion 3, Gooigi can vibrate when Luigi is near a door to a room where a Boo is located; the closer Luigi is to a Boo, the more Gooigi vibrates. This functions similarly to the Boo Radar.
