Pauline is featured in the ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Action Special]]'' comic "A Blast From The Past". The comic starts with a [[Ace investigative reporter|reporter]] coming into [[Cranky Kong]]'s cabin, asking if he recalls anything about Pauline. Cranky does, and proceed to tell the reporter about the last time he saw her.

Her original design from the ''Donkey Kong''{{'}}s cabinet also makes a cameo in New Donk City as part of some graffiti art and, once the festival mission is completed, on various billboards. The graffiti was suggested to be a connection of New Donk City with the events of the original ''Donkey Kong'' game.<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.

Pauline appears as a minor character in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', in which she is the mayor of [[New York City]]. A {{media link|Giuseppe TSMBM.png|TV news headline}} states that she has been re-elected in a landslide victory. She wears the same outfit as in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', albeit without her hat.<ref>@NE_Brian (November 28, 2022).

''Nintendo Everything''. Retrieved November 28, 2022.</ref> She first appears in the movie in a TV interview, reassuring citizens that an issue of sewer flooding is under control and that they're close to fixing it, though she is instantly proven wrong when a manhole bursts like a geyser behind her, causing her to smile sheepishly. Near the end of the movie, she is among the crowd of citizens in Brooklyn congratulating [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] for defeating [[Bowser]] and [[Koopa Troop|his army]]. An update to the SMBPlumbing.com website after the film's June home video release revealed Pauline gave the Mario Brothers a "Key to the City" and proclaimed a day of celebration on June 13, 2023.
