History

Luigi's Mansion

Mario's Painting first appears inLuigi's Mansion and reappears inits Nintendo 3DS version. King Boo sends Mario andLuigi an invitation toLuigi's new house. Mario arrives first in an attempt to welcome Luigi, only to be caught byBoos while walking in. King Boo traps Mario in the painting and rests in theStorage Room until Luigi releases him and the other Boos. Upon being released, King Boo watched over Mario in theSecret Altar, hoping no one rescues Mario and hoping to trap Luigi as well. Upon Luigi's arrival at the altar, King Boo turns Mario intoBowser, which inhales Luigi inside. After Luigi captures King Boo, he escapes the painting, grabs Mario, and heads to the lab. Using theGhost Portrificationizer, he reverts Mario to normal (but in a rather comical yet painful overwhelming way); afterwards, Mario is left very dizzy while Luigi laughs very tearfully that Mario is safe.

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon /Luigi's Mansion 2 HD

InLuigi's Mansion: Dark Moon andLuigi's Mansion 2 HD, after destroying theDark Moon, King Boo captures Mario once more, but he puts him in a "still-image" painting instead, so he would not listen to Mario crying for help. Mario remains this way until Luigi reverts him by using theDark-Light Device, after which Mario thanks him and proudly calls him "number one." Throughout the game, the Security Images show part of Mario's Painting in a sack guarded by Boos. In theHaunted Towers (B-4) andSecret Mine (D-2), his shoes are seen, and in theOld Clockworks (3-Boss),his hat is seen. TheTreacherous Mansion exposes Mario's full painting (E-3).

Luigi's Mansion 3

InLuigi's Mansion 3, King Boo traps Mario in a painting again, along withPrincess Peach and theToads. Mario's painting is found before the final battle with King Boo, and Luigi must free Mario by using the Dark-Light Device.
