Mayor Smallburg is a character exclusive to the PC version of Mario is Missing!, appearing as the fictional mayor of Madrid. His name is a pun on "small burg", i.e. a small town. Like all other mayors in the game, they contact Luigi via videophone upon his arrival in the city, as well as after all of the artifacts in the area have been returned to their rightful locations. In the first call, Mayor Smallburg states that the landmarks are in chaos. Once all of the artifacts have been recovered, Luigi receives a second call from Mayor Smallburg, who thanks him for saving the city from the Koopas and wishes him luck on the rest of his adventure. Later in the game, a newspaper article in Kathmandu describes them meeting with Mayor Schmutznikov, Mayor Devotegetter, and the mayor of Marrakech in Montana as "The 'M' Club".

In the MS-DOS version, Smallburg is depicted as a woman while the CD-ROM Deluxe version is depicted as a man. In the European CD-ROM versions, like all mayors, Smallburg's appearance changes every time the player starts a new game or resumes the saved file.

• "Luigi. You've saved our city from the Koopas, and the people are grateful. Thank you, good luck and good bye! And say hi to Mario when you find him!"
