The interior of the Lakitu Info Center located in Sunbeam Plains.

The Lakitu Info Center (known as the Lakitu Info Centre in PAL versions) is a series of locations in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. Located in most major areas of the game, the Lakitu Info Centers let the party play both new Toad rescue missions as well as revisit ones they've already completed.

Many of these missions have alternate hard mode versions, and beating them gives the player Medals, with a certain number getting them an exclusive Battle Card. The missions are organized by location, and a full list can be found below.

Each Lakitu Info Center also contains a Warp Pipe leading to an arcade, where the player can participate in a variety of minigames based on previous boss battles, Bros. Attacks, Trio Attacks, and Papercraft battles.

Missions

This section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.

Note that Bowser's Castle and Neo Bowser Castle are considered the same area as far as Lakitu Center missions go.
