The Dark-Light Device meter is now placed above of Luigi’s head instead of it showing on the upper right corner of the screen when you use it.

Updated Controls

Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD - Vacuum Up Money

Since Nintendo Switch controllers have more buttons and a right analog stick, the controls have been updated slightly. All of the old controls still work, though the vacuum controls have been moved from R and L to ZR and ZL.

The right stick can now also be used to aim the Poltergust, but the X and B buttons can still be used to look up and down respectively.

Some enemies have been renamed in this remake, borrowing from recent Luigi's Mansion titles. One notable example is the Boo you encounter in one of the missions in the Gloomy Manor. Ooga Booga is now renamed Boothoven, a pun on Beethoven, because it hides in a piano.
