History[edit]
Mario is Missing![edit]
The map of Rio de Janeiro as it appears in Mario is Missing!
Rio de Janeiro's first appearance in the Super Mario franchise is as one of the cities Luigi has to visit in the PC and SNES versions of Mario is Missing!. As with all the other cities appearing in the game, Rio de Janeiro was invaded by Koopa Troopas sent by Bowser to steal artifacts from the cities' landmarks. Luigi's task is to rescue the city by finding and returning all the missing artifacts.
In the SNES version, the Koopas steal a spotlight from the Christ the Redeemer Statue, a seashell from Copacabana Beach, and a cable car from Sugar Loaf Mountain.
In the PC version, instead of stealing from the Christ the Redeemer Statue, the Koopas instead steal a headdress from the Carnival, and a Soccer Ball from Maracana Stadium. Additionally, in this version, the mayor of the city is shown to be Mayor Cook.
The information from Mario is Missing! mistakenly places the city to be above the Tropic of Cancer, when Rio is actually above the Tropic of Capricorn.

In the November 17, 1995 broadcast of Shitamachi Ninjō Gekijō, Mario and Toad escape from a prison by digging downwards with a drill, emerging to find Rio Carnival dancers nearby.[1] Concluding they arrived in Brazil, Mario promptly gives Toad the cover name "Carlos Romário", to Toad's despair.
