Windows on the World was a complex of dining, entertainment, and meeting venues located on top of the North Tower of the former World Trade Center complex. It appears in the Game Boy comic In the Palm of Your Hand..., where Tatanga and his army go the restaurant to get Daisy some lunch (a distraction to stop his takeover of the Wonder World Mall. Once at the restaurant, Tatanga's second-in-command, Pionpi, begins demanding food for Tatanga's army through violence. In the Pagosu, Daisy attempts to convince Tatanga to renounce his ways, though he says that he will only do so if she marries him, which Daisy refuses.
Mario, alongside his allies Josh and Rick, eventually arrive at Windows on the World and begin fighting Tatanga's army. As Daisy is pleased that Mario will save her, Tatanga tells her to sit down before ordering Pionpi to kill Mario. Mario, after narrowly escaping the clutches of Tatanga's army, is swatted by Herman with a food tray, though is saved by Rick by before he can fall into the hands of Tatanga's army. After Josh informs him of the presence of some nearby ? Blocks constructed by Tatanga's engineers, Mario hits and finds a Starman, turning him invincible and using it to defeat Tatanga's army, planning to defeat Tatanga next. As Herman flees the scene, Tatanga orders his guards to activate the Pagosu, only to be stopped by Daisy, who does not want neither him nor Mario to be killed (as on Earth, one only lives once), convincing him to return to Sarasaland. He then orders his minions to activate the Warp Zone vortex, with him and his army entering it shortly after.
As Mario becomes infuriated by Tatanga's escape, he realizes that he must re-enter the Game Boy; otherwise he will be trapped on Earth. After Rick hands Josh his Game Boy, Mario returns to the video game world, telling them to call him if Tatanga escapes again, just as the police arrive.
