The '''top of the Transamerica Pyramid''' is an item 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!'']]. As its name suggests, it is the pointed spire atop the [[Transamerica Pyramid]]. It is taken from its rightful place after a group of [[Koopa Troopa]]s invade [[San Francisco]], causing the building to be shut down. It is later taken by [[Luigi]] from a Koopa Troopa while he is in the city, and he then shows it to the city's citizens so that they can help him identify it. Everyone tells him that the item in his possession should be returned to the pyramid. He promptly does so through the Transamerica Pyramid's information booth, receiving $1600 for his efforts.
