PrinceWatercress plays Mario Is Missing! (Super Nintendo) - Part 1 of 9
Sure, it's a meh edutainment game, and it could have been done without the Mario franchise, but it still exists. Might as well play it, right?
Unlike the NES game, you'll have three floors with five doors each. When you complete a level, you won't be able to return (thankfully). When you complete a floor, you'll get the easiest boss battle ever. Just defeat the Koopa Kid that runs around three times to beat him.
There are numerous Koopas in the cities now, and the ones with the loot die in funny ways, such as crumbling into pieces or shooting up into the sky like a rocket. Press B to pick the loot up. Yeah, you have to jump to pick up loot. I guess Software Toolworks couldn't make any uses for any of the other buttons...or remember that the X button existed.
The people are in specific spots on the map (which seems to generate at random, maybe it's just me). There are five people in all, and they not only look different from one another, they'll give you clues to where you are and what you've currently highlighted in the Artifacts section (more on that later).
Despite the roads going diagonally on the map, you still go left and right, so don't let that confuse you. Speaking of which, you can use the Select button to toggle an in-game map to see where you're currently at on any given street, as well as any people, pipes, info centers, and Koopas. Pressing L or R while this in-game map is toggled on will let you see the whole city map where everything moves in real time. If you're riding Yoshi, Luigi will be replaced by Yoshi on the map.
All the info booth girls look like Princess Peach now. The questions are exactly the same as the NES version, but you have to answer two questions instead of one to return the artifact. You can also ask for a newspaper for the artifact's location, so you can study up on the questions and learn general information about the landmark it's from. When you return an artifact, you can go into the booth and take a picture of the item so you can see a 16-bit rendition of what it looks like. If you get a question wrong, you'll have to wait for about a minute before you can try again.
To cross the roads, you actually have to cross at the crosswalks. Doing it in the road itself will cause a car horn to sound, probably to deter you from doing it like in the NES game. When you go down, Luigi looks both ways before crossing. Even if you go up, there's still a bit of a wait. It gets slightly annoying over time, and when you do it while riding Yoshi, Yoshi looks like a damn zombie. Seriously, it looks like he has no irises when he looks straight south.
The blue pipe takes you to Bowser's castle and is guarded by a Pokey. Unless you get Yoshi to where you are, you won't be able to scare it away, get on the pipe and return. The green ones warp you around the level, and this is pretty useful if you've just entered it and haven't even come close to killing all of the Koopas yet.
When you beat a level, you'll also get a bonus that depends on how much time you took to complete the level as well as the rewards for the artifacts you returned. Don't know why you'd want to get a high score in this game, but it does prove how good you are. Just like in the NES version, you'll also get a password for when you want to continue your game at a later date.
You actually get the Sistine Chapel picture here, but the nudity is tastefully edited. No genitalia here in an educational Super Nintendo game, thank you so much. At least it doesn't feel forced.
Now for the menu. The Artifacts section lets you choose which artifact you want to ask about. Just select the one you want so the border around it is in red, then continue on with the game. The Computer lets you re-read the clues you've gotten from other people. The Globulator lets you call Yoshi, who will appear if you choose the right location. The City Map gives you a view of the entire city map, but if you press both L and R at the same time, you'll be able to see it with everything moving in real time just like in normal gameplay. The Photo Album lets you see the pictures of all the artifacts you entered the booth for.
When you beat a level, you'll leave Yoshi behind whenever you re-enter Bowser's castle. You'll have to use the Globulator every time you enter a new city.
First Floor
We have five levels to choose from, but this is just the beginning.
Venice, Italy, Europe
Sistine Chapel Ceiling
Q - What does Sistine mean in Latin?
A - Six.
Q - Let's make this picture perfect. Who painted the ceiling?

Q - Where is the Sistine Chapel located?

A - Fountain.
Q - When was the Trevi built?

Mario Is Missing! (Super NES) - The Speedrun by __sdfg
From the video description...
Q: whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
A: I don't know how jokes work.
Q: How do you know where to find the Koopas with artifacts?
A: The Koopas' spawn locations are determined by the order in which Luigi visits the cities. Since I follow the same route every time, I know where the Koopas will be.
Q: Why do you visit the cities in that weird order?
A: I believe it yields better spawn locations than I would get from visiting the cities in a more natural order, enough to make up for the extra time spent running between doors. I still need to plan and run a couple natural-order routes to confirm this, however.
Q: How do you answer the questions so fast on the first floor?
A: The curators ask the same questions in the same order as long as I follow the same route on the first floor. I memorized the inputs for answering those questions. On the second and third floors, some of the questions are random, so I have to stop and read many of the menus.
Q: Why do you wait to cross the street at the beginning of San Francisco (and a few other places)?
A: The game prevents you from crossing a street, going into a pipe, or opening the plumber's toolbox during the post-stomp animation for a Koopa with an artifact.
Q: How much faster do you think you can get this?
A: Sub-21:30 is definitely possible with this route. However, I don't plan to go for it.
Q: Why not go for sub-21:30?
A: I'm really tired of the game.
Q: What would a 100% run entail?
A: Luigi's computer tracks which of the clues he has received in each level. The game also records which photos Luigi has taken. Therefore, 100% would require reading all of the brochures, asking every NPC every possible question, and taking a photo of every landmark. Nobody should run that category under any circumstances.
Q: Do you plan to run any other educational Mario games?
A: No.
Q: What about Hotel Mario?
A: Please stop.
