According to early media such as the instruction booklets for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version of ''{{wp|SimCity (1989 video game)#Super NES|SimCity}}''<ref>''SimCity'' SNES instruction booklet, page 4. "''Well, this is what you asked for. Bowser is on the loose, stomping, smashing, ripping down power lines, starting fires, tearing up roads and railroads and generally doing everything possible to make life about as comfortable as a bed of spikes. I can hardly bear to watch. And although you can’t see them, the SimCitizens are in the streets, screaming and running around like ants. After all, they didn’t elect their mayor to use the city as an experiment in terror. As for Bowser, you can hear in roaring in anger, unable to find Mario and Luigi, which isn’t surprising since they live in Brooklyn, not Tokyo. Listen closely and you’ll also hear explosions as factories catch fire. According to my statistics, over half of all mayors regret the decision to sack their cities, but fortunately for their peace of mind the guilt lasts only 2.6 seconds on average.''"</ref> and console conversions of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'',<ref>''Mario is Missing!'' instruction booklet, page 2 (SNES) or 4 (NES).
