| Tokyo is one of the cities [[Luigi]] visits in the [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|PC]], [[Mario is Missing! (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)|SNES]], and [[Mario is Missing! (Nintendo Entertainment System)|NES versions of ''Mario is Missing!'']]. In the DOS version, it is in the fourth level set; in the SNES version, it is in the third, final level set; and in the NES version, it is in the second pair of levels alongside [[Paris]]. | | [[File:Tokyo MIM.png|thumb|The map of Tokyo as it appears in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'']] |
| | | Tokyo is one of fifteen cities [[Luigi]] visits during the events of the game ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'' Along with [[New York City]], [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Cairo]], and [[London]], it is one of the five cities that need to be rescued before the final boss of the game, [[Morton Koopa Jr.]], can be battled. |
| Like all cities in the game, [[Koopa Troopa]]s have stolen artifacts from landmarks around the city: the [[Sensoji Temple Lantern|lantern]] from the [[Sensoji Temple]], a [[Sumo Apron]] from the [[Kokugikan Arena]], and an [[Great Buddha's Orange|orange]] from the [[Great Buddha of Kamakura]]. In the PC version, two additional items are stolen: a [[Mask from the Kabuki Theater|mask]] from the [[Kabuki Theater]], and [[Tong Tong|a panda]] from the [[Ueno Zoo]]. Before he leaves the city, Luigi must return the artifacts to their proper places.
| |
|
| |
|
| In the PC version, Luigi talks to [[Mayor O. K. Leeder]] at the beginning and end of his business in Tokyo.
| | Three artifacts were stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s from several landmarks in the city. Those landmarks are: the [[Great Buddha of Kamakura]], the [[Sensoji Temple]], and the [[Kokugikan Arena]]. Luigi's task is to check the Troopas in the city for the artifacts, and then to return them back to the appropriate landmarks. |

| ;Penguins on Parade
| |
| :Thousands of penguins en route to the Taronga Zoo in Sydney had to be diverted to our Ueno Zoo late yesterday. The zookeeper in Sydney said, "It was getting too crowded, and there was no place to put their penguin suitcases." A spokespenguin added that "All we wanted is a little snow. Well, a lot of snow. And ice."

| ;More Landmarks Looted
| |
| :Thieving troops of turtles have swept this city like a hurricane. Police have decided to battle back with turtle traps, but so far have come up empty-handed. Pictured below are the suspects in the case. Note the small bald heads and beady eyes.

| ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' introduces a [[new course]] based on Tokyo, titled [[Tour Tokyo Blur|Tokyo Blur]], of which there are four different route variations. The first [[Tour Tokyo Blur#Tokyo Blur|Tokyo Blur]] track debuted in and served as the signature course of the [[Tokyo Tour]]. [[Tour Tokyo Blur#Tokyo Blur 2|Tokyo Blur 2]] served as the signature course of the [[New Year's Tour (2020)|2020 New Year's Tour]] as a nod to the tour's Japanese New Year theme, which is also its debut tour. A third version known as [[Tour Tokyo Blur#Tokyo Blur 3|Tokyo Blur 3]] was introduced in the [[Summer Festival Tour]], which was likely due to the city's reputation of hosting summer festivals nearly every year. In the [[Mario Tour (2021)|2021 Mario Tour]], [[Tour Tokyo Blur#Tokyo Blur 4|Tokyo Blur 4]] is introduced, which combines elements of the previous Tokyo Blur courses into a single route. All four Tokyo Blur courses return in the [[Mario vs. Peach Tour]], which is also the debut tour of Tokyo Blur 3's R/T varant. | | In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', the new courses, [[Tokyo Blur]], [[Tokyo Blur 2]], [[Tokyo Blur 3]], and [[Tokyo Blur 4]] are inspired by Tokyo.
