The '''Boo-ray Machine''' is a machine in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' [[Yikk]] built before he passed away. Yikk explained 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, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], who are inside of 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.

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]]'' that [[Yikk]] built before his death. The name is a play on "x-ray machine" and may also be a play on {{wp|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 [[punch]]ing the button in the original game, or standing on the platform in the remake), [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], who are inside of [[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.
