The '''Metro Kingdom''' is the eighth kingdom visited in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. It is the greater location of '''New Donk City''', a large city filled with skyscrapers and buildings. This kingdom's main landmark is the [[New Donk City Hall]], the tallest skyscraper located at the northern end of the kingdom.
The '''Metro Kingdom''' is the eighth kingdom visited in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. It is the greater location of '''New Donk City''', a large city filled with skyscrapers and buildings. This kingdom's main landmark is the [[New Donk City Hall]], the tallest skyscraper located at the northern end of the kingdom.


The Metro Kingdom is largely based off the [[real world]] location of [[New York City]], hence the name of its greater location. The New Donk City Hall is based on the {{wp|Empire State Building}}, while a pair of triangular-shaped buildings outside of it appear to be inspired by the {{wp|Flatiron Building}}, and visible in the skyline are a building and bridge resembling the {{wp|Chrysler Building}} and [[Brooklyn Bridge]], respectively. This kingdom is notable for having [[human]]s as the main inhabitants - called "[[New Donker]]s" (the equivalent of "New Yorkers") - as well as [[Pauline]] as its mayor (notwithstanding). New Donk City's nickname is "The city that never leaps", a play on New York City's nickname - "The city that never sleeps". New Donk City is also referred to as "The Big Banana" by a New Donker, which is a play on New York City being referred to as "The Big Apple". The Metro Kingdom is also the founding location of the [[Crazy Cap]] Shop chain. New Donk City has also been implied to be the location of the events that take place in the arcade game ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', where Mario had to save Pauline from [[Donkey Kong]].<ref>{{ref quote|「ニュードンク・シティ」の建物に描かれているグラフィティです。懐かしい人には懐かしい!?街の歴史に関係した絵なんです。|Super Mario Odyssey (JP)|[https://twitter.com/mario_odysseyJP/status/910985748341415936 on Twitter]}}</ref><ref>{{ref quote|You might stumble across some graffiti in New Donk City.

The Metro Kingdom is largely based off of the [[real world]] location of [[New York City]], hence the name of the city located within it. The New Donk City Hall is based on the {{wp|Empire State Building}}, while a pair of triangular-shaped buildings outside of it appear to be inspired by the {{wp|Flatiron Building}}, and visible in the skyline are a building and bridge resembling the {{wp|Chrysler Building}} and [[Brooklyn Bridge]], respectively. The way [[Crazy Cap]] has a flagship store in New Donk City is very similar to how Nintendo's [[Nintendo New York|flagship store]] is in New York City. Some street signs in New Donk City feature cycling {{wp|Wrong-way driving|wrong way}} signs that look exactly like [[commons:File:MUTCD R5-1b.svg|the signs used in New York City]], and traffic lights have guy-wire masts, consistant with their design in New York. This kingdom is notable for having humans as the main inhabitants - called "[[New Donker]]s" (the equivalent of "New Yorkers") - as well as [[Pauline]] as its mayor (notwithstanding). New Donk City has a [[Donkey Kong (game)#Development|1930s-1940s aesthetic]] as its residents are uniformly dressed in pinstripe suits and fedoras with jazz music prominent. New Donk City's nickname is "The city that never leaps", a play on New York City's nickname - "The city that never sleeps". New Donk City is also referred to as "The Big Banana" by a New Donker, which is a play on New York City being referred to as "The Big Apple". The Metro Kingdom is also the founding location of the Crazy Cap Shop chain. New Donk City features copious references to the arcade game ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', and it is implied that the events of that game, where [[Mario]] had to save Pauline from [[Donkey Kong]], are a part of the city's beginnings.<ref>"「ニュードンク・シティ」の建物に描かれているグラフィティです。懐かしい人には懐かしい!?街の歴史に関係した絵なんです。" — '''Super Mario Odyssey (JP)''', ''[https://twitter.com/mario_odysseyJP/status/910985748341415936 on Twitter]''</ref><ref>"''You might stumble across some graffiti in New Donk City.

When Mario first visits here, [[Bowser]]'s airship can be seen flying over the top of the New Donk City Hall. Mario's first objective is to stop Bowser by heading to the New Donk City Hall Rooftop. Once the player climbs up to here, they will find [[Mechawiggler]] - a large robotic [[Wiggler]] taking all the city's power. Mario must then fight the Mechawiggler and defeat it, which will reward the player with a [[Multi Moon]]. Collecting it will take Mario back to the [[Odyssey]], and the kingdom reverts to daytime. The player's next objective is to talk to Mayor Pauline at the New Donk City Hall Plaza. She tells Mario that she needs four musicians to perform in her big festival. Mario finds the four musicians (a drummer, a guitarist, a bassist, and a trumpeter) and takes them all back to Pauline. Once he has done this, the mayor will then tell Mario of a new problem - the Underground Power Plant is not working. Mario must then travel to the Power Plant and restore it in order to generate enough power to hold the festival. Mayor Pauline is impressed by Mario's efforts, and she asks if Mario would like to participate in the festival. He accepts the offer, and the New Donk City Festival begins. If the player can successfully traverse through the festival of the city and reach Pauline at the end, she will give Mario another Multi Moon. Collecting it restores the kingdom to its former glory (although nothing changes between Mechawiggler and the festival), allowing access to more Power Moons. Once Mario has collected enough Power Moons, he can head off to the next kingdom - either the [[Snow Kingdom]] or the [[Seaside Kingdom]].

==Description==
==Description==
The city's design is largely inspired by real world big cities, most notably [[New York City]]. It features many typical things found in cities, such as fire hydrants, street lamps and stoplights (the latter of which Mario is able to grab onto and swing on to jump forward, and their pedestrian crossing lights can be hit like ? Blocks). There are taxis driving throughout the city, which Mario is able to bounce off of the front hoods of in order to gain extra jump height. There are also many billboards, some of which advertise about other kingdoms in the game. Many of the streets and some of the billboards and advertisements in the city are named after characters from the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchise, such as "[[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]'s Mart", "[[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] Street", "[[Tiny Kong|Tiny]]'s Piroshkis" and "[[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] Avenue", not to mention [[Donkey Kong|the city itself]]; additionally, there are some red girders that appear in New Donk City as a reference to the original [[Donkey Kong (game)|''Donkey Kong'' arcade game]]. The city is located on an elevated platform above the rest of the kingdom, surrounded by a large bay. Each side of said bay is surrounded by further unexplorable city.

==Checkpoint Flag locations==
===Odyssey===
{{main|Odyssey}}
The Odyssey lands in a secluded area south of the main part of the city. Nearby are some girders where Mario can find three [[regional coin]]s. During Mechawiggler's attack on the city, there is a spark pylon on the blue tarp at the end of the girders which will take Mario to the city streets. After defeating Mechawiggler, [[Hint Toad]] and [[Uncle amiibo]] appear here, the spark pylon is moved closer to the Odyssey, and a Power Moon can be found inside the girders. [[Ground Pound]]ing on the blue tarp where the spark pylon originally was makes coins pop out. [[Luigi]] also appears here after the main story's completion and hosts [[Balloon World]].
===City Outskirts/Main Street Entrance===
[[File:SMO Metro Moon 30.png|thumb]]
Depending on whether or not Mario has defeated Mechawiggler, there will be one of two Checkpoint Flags active near a small park (which is referred to as '[[Squawks]] Park' on signs), both of which are reached via a spark pylon near the Odyssey's landing site. During Mechawiggler's attack, the Checkpoint Flag is southeast of the park and referred to as "City Outskirts". After Mechawiggler's defeat, the Checkpoint Flag is southwest of the park and referred to as "Main Street Entrance". At the Main Street Entrance, Mario can find a pair of [[Binoculars]] (through which the [[Sphynx]] can be seen after completion of the story) and a few [[New Donker]]s who welcome him to the city. Talkatoo and the [[Jump-Rope Challenge]] can be found at the park. [[Jammin' Toad]], a [[Bonneter]], and the [[Letter (Super Mario Odyssey)|Letter]]s also appear at the park after the story is completed.
The music that regularly plays throughout the city plays as soon as Mario touches the ground here. As such, it is possible, at least briefly, to advance through the city without the music playing so long as Mario stays off the ground.

===Rooftop Garden===
[[File:SMO Metro Moon 17.png|thumb]]
It is a small, flat garden atop one of the many buildings in this kingdom. Although most of the garden is found atop two connected buildings, a similar area close to these buildings also features a garden. While roaming the garden, [[Mario]] may find a [[Checkpoint Flag]], a [[Pole (bollard)|pole]], and a [[rabbit]] he may catch for a [[Power Moon]], though the rabbit often runs around the garden, hopping to the adjacent building. In the corner of the garden, two [[New Donker]]s sit on a bench in the shade of a tree. While exploring the garden, Mario may locate a set of four [[regional coin]]s on the highest point as well as a football he may simply punt off the rooftop into the streets.

===Construction Access / New Donk City Hall Plaza===
[[File:SMO - Mayor Pauline.jpg|thumb]]
{{main|New Donk City Hall Plaza}}
Depending on whether or not Mario has defeated Mechawiggler, there will be one of two Checkpoint Flags active near New Donk City Hall. After Mechawiggler's defeat, the flag is directly in front of the entrance and referred to as "New Donk City Hall Plaza". Pauline can be found near the flag. During Mechawiggler's attack, the flag is called "Construction Access", and is on a small green mound a short distance to the east of its later location. Some stairs are nearby, which help Mario to reach the rooftop of a building, from where he may then access the Heliport.

===New Donk City Hall Rooftop===
This Checkpoint Flag is found after exiting the [[New Donk City Hall#Interior|New Donk City Hall Interior]]. Despite its name, it is not on the roof, but a balcony below the roof. There is a spark pylon here that leads to the roof, but it disappears after Mechawiggler is defeated. After completing the main story, two Shiverians can be found here.

===Mayor Pauline Commemorative Park===
[[File:SMO Metro Moon 4.png|thumb]]
{{main|Mayor Pauline Commemorative Park}}
This area is accessed by using a spark pylon east of New Donk City Hall Plaza. It is a small park with a few trees and benches. The guitarist needed to form the [[Band (Super Mario Odyssey)|band]] is found here. Power Moons can be found by Ground Pounding Mechawiggler's remains and touching a glowing bird. By climbing one of the trees, Mario can find two regional coins.

This area is located in the bottom-right corner of the map and is isolated from the rest of New Donk City. It can only be accessed via a painting from the [[Sand Kingdom]], available after completing the story mission [[Showdown on the Inverted Pyramid]]. On the rooftop is a [[Power Moon]] and a block of girders with multiple [[Hidden Coin]]s on top.

{{main|New Donk City Hall (stage)}}
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the New Donk City Hall appears as a stage. The fighters are carried up the building on a moving platform as the fight progresses, fighting on the building sides. Pauline and the [[Band (Super Mario Odyssey)|band]] appear in the background on the ground, and on moving platforms when the fighters are lifted up. If a fighter touches Pauline or a band member, they begin playing music.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*[[Big Ape City]], a location in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', is implied at page 15 of the game's instruction booklet to be the setting of the original ''Donkey Kong'' arcade game, which New Donk City also is. It is unknown if they are both the same city.
*The rooftop pool beside the top of city hall was significantly deeper in the game's E3 2017 demo, with the water level being just over [[Mario]]'s head; in the final game, the water level approximately reaches Mario's neck.<ref>https://twitter.com/game4brains/status/946182614653681664</ref> It is likely that this change was due to the original water level leaving Mario susceptible to drowning, as demonstrated in a YouTube video uploaded by gaming news site Polygon during E3.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bixxb8jSxSg</ref>
*New Donk City shares the nickname "Big Banana" with [[wikibound:Fourside|Fourside]] from ''[[wikibound:EarthBound|EarthBound]]''.
*The landmass the Metro, [[Snow Kingdom|Snow]], [[Ruined Kingdom|Ruined]], and [[Bowser's Kingdom]]s are all located on resembles Laurasia.
*The rooftop pool beside the top of city hall was significantly deeper in the game's E3 2017 demo, with the water level being just over Mario's head; in the final game, the water level approximately reaches Mario's neck.<ref>https://twitter.com/game4brains/status/946182614653681664</ref> It is likely that this change was due to the original water level leaving Mario susceptible to drowning, as demonstrated in a YouTube video uploaded by gaming news site Polygon during E3.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bixxb8jSxSg</ref>
*The textures used for reflections in windows often depict things that in reality, they couldn't; for example, while looking down at the side of the building the [[Odyssey]] is on, the rooftop and Odyssey can be seen in the reflection as though they are a great distance beneath where they actually are.
*Some street signs in New Donk City feature cycling {{wp|Wrong-way driving|wrong way}} signs that look exactly like [[commons:File:MUTCD R5-1b.svg|the signs used in New York City]].
*This kingdom has the most bonus areas out of all the kingdoms in the game, totaling 14 bonus areas.
*The way Crazy Cap has a flagship store in New Donk City is very similar to how Nintendo’s flagship store is in New York City.
*Although New Donk City itself does not appear in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', it, or rather, Pauline's status as the mayor of the city as well as New York City acting as the locale's basis was indirectly referenced with Pauline being one of the favorite drivers for [[New York Minute]], [[New York Minute 2]],  [[New York Minute 3]] and  [[New York Minute 4]].
