Version 1.0(9/3/02)- First FAQ.
************************************************************************
2. QUICK TIPS
Money can be tricky in Luigi's Mansion, sometimes appearing and others times it
won't,
so here are some quick tips:
1. Be sure to check a room several times for money.
2. Collect all money with your vacuum and search for money with your vacuum,
too.
3. Capture all Gold Mice and Blue Ghosts.
They can be seen only when the lights in a room are turned off.
Gold Mice can either be found at random(25% chance you will find one),
or by searching a block of cheese with the Game Boy Horror.
4. Try not to get hit by ghosts. Otherwise, you will lose coins.
5. Money will disappear after a while. Do your best to pick it up quickly.
6. Save as often as you can. You never know when you might drop a coin.
7. Be extra careful not to hit ghosts during the blackout.
8. Know the importance of each piece of money:
Coin- 5,000G
Bill- 20,000G
Gold Bar- 100,000G
Blue Gem- 500,000G
Green Gem- 800,000G
Red Gem- 1,000,000G
Diamond(Clear)- 2,000,000G
Ruby(Red)- 5,000G
Emerald(Yellow)- 20,000,000G
Large Pearl- 1,000,000G
Medium Pearl- 100,000G
Small Pearl- 50,000G
9. Water all the plants you see.
10. Learn to catch ghosts quickly. It will help when catching Blue Ghosts.
11. Catch all of the Boos.
12. Try to suck at least 90 HP off a portrait ghost.
This way, you will collect the maximum number of pearls: 4 small, 4 medium, and
1 large.
13. If there are ghosts in a room, search for money after you turn the lights o
(Does not apply for Gold Mice and Blue Ghosts).
14. Ceiling fans are tricky:
you must suck them up until they are at full speed before they will give you
money.
15. The plant in the Boneyard must be watered three times before it gives you
anything:
before Boss #2, before Boss #3, and before Boss #4.
