King Boo reappears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' as the main antagonist and final boss once more. He looks similar to his original appearance from ''Luigi's Mansion'', but he retains the full set of teeth and sped-up voice he had in his appearances in the other ''Super Mario'' titles and is also much larger. He has a purple tongue and mouth and glowing purple eyes, and the dark area around his eyes is bigger and darker. | King Boo reappears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]'' as the main antagonist and final boss once more.

Towards the end of the game, it is revealed that King Boo has captured Mario like he did in the last game. After Luigi obtains the last Dark Moon piece and returns to the [[Bunker]], King Boo captures him and pulls him back into [[??? (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon)|his dimension]]. He reveals to Luigi he escaped from the painting and broke the Dark Moon, causing the ghosts to become under his control. He intends to use the ghosts as an army to conquer both Evershade Valley and the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] while also planning to put Luigi, E. Gadd, and all their friends into paintings for revenge. He then engages into battle with Luigi. | Towards the end of the game, it is revealed that King Boo has captured Mario like he did in the last game.

During the final battle, King Boo summons a series of magic lightning bolts with his crown and will attempt to slam Luigi with his body. The latter causes [[Spike Ball|spiked ball]]s to fall from above, which will roll around the tilting platform to pose a hazard. King Boo will stop moving when looked at, and when caught underneath a falling ball he will become stunned, leaving him vulnerable to the [[Poltergust 5000]]. Once his HP is depleted and he gets sucked into the Poltergust 5000, he immediately breaks out and sends Luigi into a floating hallway. He then swells to a large size and begins rolling after Luigi, attempting to stall Luigi with various obstacles, such as falling shelves and suits of armor with large polearms. If King Boo does hit Luigi, he'll pause for a moment to laugh maliciously. Once Luigi makes it out of the hall, he will land on another tilting platform, where King Boo will repeat his previous patterns at a higher intensity. The battle concludes after the third battle and second hallway chase, leading to King Boo's defeat and being sucked into the Poltergust 5000. | During the final battle, King Boo summons a series of magic lightning bolts with his crown and will attempt to slam Luigi with his body.

King Boo reappears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' with the same design as in ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'', but with more detail on his crown and a more expressive scowl. King Boo is one of the two main antagonists, having been released by the other main antagonist [[Hellen Gravely]], the owner of [[The Last Resort]] hotel and a big fan of his, in order to impress him. Seeking revenge on Luigi for his previous defeats, he traps Professor E. Gadd, Mario, [[Princess Peach]], and the three [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in portraits before going after Luigi, who manages to escape his capture by going down a laundry chute. He later ends up entrusting Hellen Gravely with Mario's portrait, although it's implied that he intended for Luigi to win both due to Gravely's failures by that time and so he could capture both alongside Peach by using the latter as bait, also recapturing the Toads and Professor E. Gadd just after Mario was freed. However, he ultimately fails to capture Luigi atop the hotel due to [[Polterpup]] shoving him out of the way of King Boo's portrait, and then proceeds to battle Luigi. To defeat King Boo, Luigi must throw a bomb from a spiked ball King Boo throws into his mouth, then pull on his tongue with [[Gooigi]]'s help and slam him repeatedly. Upon doing so, King Boo will then generate a clone that attacks alongside him. After this is done twice, King Boo will enlarge the painting, and Luigi will then have four minutes to attack King Boo one last time. The battle ends with King Boo being recaptured by Luigi and placed in a containment jar alongside Gravely, much to his frustration. As the purple gem in his crown was taken by Luigi after the final battle, it is missing from his crown.<ref>{{cite|author=ProsafiaGaming|date=October 30, 2019|url=youtu.be/GYyMEi0iTZw?t=643|title=Luigi's Mansion 3 - All Endings & Ranks + Credits|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=November 20, 2019}}</ref> | King Boo reappears in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' with the same design as in ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'', but with more detail on his crown and a more expressive scowl.

King Boo<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 188|date=February 2005|page=79|quote=(Luigi’s being held captive by King Boo, so you’ll have to rescue him first.)}}</ref> appears in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', imprisoning [[Luigi]] behind a [[painting]] in [[Big Boo's Haunt]]. When [[Mario]] enters the [[Big Boo Battle]] level to save Luigi, King Boo greets him. From there, the player must listen for King Boo's cackle and enter the door where it is loudest. Eventually, the player reaches the end and fights King Boo to free Luigi. To defeat King Boo, the player has to follow King Boo's movements in the arena's mirror and [[stomp]] him when he comes close enough. Defeating him results in King Boo giving out the [[Luigi Key]]. The player can fight him again as different characters, notably Luigi (who can be fought before unlocking him with [[Luigi Cap|his cap]]) and [[Wario]]. When Luigi meets King Boo, he is confused but proceeds to attack him anyway. When Wario fights him, King Boo is alarmed by his appearance and attempts to scare and attack him. | |||

He is | King Boo is a default playable character in both games of the [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]]: ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. In both games, King Boo is a member of [[Wario]]'s baseball team, the [[Wario Greats]]. He is only one of three characters to be on Wario's team in both games, alongside [[Boo]] and [[Waluigi]]. King Boo is a power hitter, using his baseball bat to hit long outfield drives and even home runs. King Boo has good chemistry with [[Boo]] and [[Petey Piranha]], and he has bad chemistry with [[Luigi]] and [[Baby Luigi]]. However, like Boo, his hits are usually very curved, and this causes them to be fouls most of the time. His baseball bat no longer has a physical crown on it. King Boo wields a Boo-like baseball bat. In ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', it has a crown, while in ''Mario Super Sluggers'', the baseball bat no longer sports a physical crown, but is instead represented as a crown picture above the "Boo mouth" picture. Additionally, the colors of the jewels on King Boo's crown are reversed. | ||
In the Challenge Mode of ''Mario Super Sluggers'', King Boo appears immediately after the player defeats [[Bowser Jr.]] at the [[Wario City]] stadium, stating that he turned invisible and was watching the whole game. However, he is uninterested in joining the player's team unless the team has some [[Boo]]s with them. This is accomplished by both recruiting Boo and finding the [[Mini Boo]] item. King Boo has good chemistry with [[Petey Piranha]], [[Boo]], [[Wiggler]], and [[King K. Rool]], but he has bad chemistry with [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], [[Baby Peach]], and [[Baby Daisy]]. | |||

In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', King Boo gives out [[Star (Mario Party series)|Stars]] on his own board [[King Boo's Haunted Hideaway]]. He hides in one out of three altars and gives the player a Star for ten coins if they can find him where he is hiding. If the player is able to buy the Star, he starts to "summon the bizarre" and disappears, causing the player to jump into a [[Warp Pipe]] that returns them to the starting point. This "makeover mojo" causes the whole layout of the course to change. However, if they do not have enough coins, King Boo causes a pitfall to appear under the player, causing them to return to the starting point and allowing the next player that reaches him to buy the Star. Additionally, if the player fails to steal anything from the board event Pickpocket Pinball, the hosting [[Little Mouser|mouse]] sounds like King Boo. The player can purchase King Boo sounds from the [[Fun Bazaar]], along with a figurine titled "King Boo's Revenge". When the player presses {{button|wii|A}} on the figurine during the Figurine Parade, King Boo floats up and gives off a brilliant glow, as if he is a light bulb. | |||

[[File: | In the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]], King Boo typically has the role of being a rival. In the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', King Boo is both the first and sixth (in Individual Festival mode only) rival. King Boo races the player in the [[Alpine Skiing Downhill]] event in both Individual and Group Festival modes, but he only races the player in Giant Slalom in the Individual Festival mode, making him the only rival that can potentially be faced more than once. King Boo has no skis so he goes down the hill smoothly. If the player loses to him, the guide (either [[Cream (character)|Cream]] or [[Toad]]) says that it is unfair because King Boo has no skis. In the Wii version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', King Boo is one of the rival characters that can be found in the London Party mode, and when he is encountered, he challenges the player to the [[Dream Sprint]] event, with stickers being offered as a reward for beating him. In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games]]'', King Boo is a rival in the [[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games#Legends Showdown|Legends Showdown]] mode, appearing in Area 4, and is raced against in [[Short Track Speed Skating 1000m]]. | ||

In the [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)#Adventure Tours story|Adventure Tours]] mode in the [[Nintendo DS]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', King Boo is the mid-boss of [[Polastraits]], and when Mario/Sonic approaches him, King Boo tells then that he must race someone who is afraid of him. He selects Luigi and they must race in Giant Slalom. In this version, King Boo is transparent and the player can ski through him. He also appears slightly larger than in his other appearances. In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', King Boo appears in the Story Mode, where he helps guard the [[Phantasmal Fog]] at the [[Tower of London]], and teams up with a Boo to challenge [[Sonic]] and [[Tails]] in [[Badminton (Doubles)]].
