Along with [[Athens]], [[Buenos Aires]], [[Mexico City]] and [[Paris]], Sydney is one of the five cities in the SNES version of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'' that [[Luigi]] has to visit in order to defeat the second boss of the game, [[Iggy Koopa]]. There are three landmarks — the [[Bondi Beach]], the [[Taronga Zoo]], and the [[Sydney Opera]] — from which artifacts were stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s. In the PC version, a fourth landmark is added: the {{wp|Sydney Harbor Bridge}}. If Luigi finds and returns the artifacts to their respective landmarks, he will be rewarded with money and finally the city will be rescued.

Sydney appears as a city in all versions of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]''. In the DOS version, it's in the third level set out of five; in the SNES version, it's in the second level set out of three; and in the NES version, alongside [[San Francisco]], it's in the second pair of levels out of seven. There are three landmarks — [[Bondi Beach]], the [[Taronga Zoo]], and the [[Sydney Opera House]] — from which artifacts were stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s; respectively, a [[Surfboard from Bondi Beach|surfboard]], a [[Taronga Zoo koala|koala]], and some [[Sydney Opera Sheet Music|sheet music]]. In the PC version, a fourth artifact is stolen: a [[Steel Girder from the Harbor Bridge|steel girder]] from the [[Sydney Harbor Bridge]]. If [[Luigi]] finds and returns the artifacts to their respective landmarks, he will be rewarded with money and finally the city will be rescued.

Additionally, to defeat the [[Pokey]] preventing him from leaving the city, he must also use the [[Globulator]] to call [[Yoshi]] to his location, which he can deduce from the following information.

Sydney also appears as the setting of the new course, [[Sydney Sprint]], first appearing in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. Like other cities in the game, it has multiple numbered routes through the same map. The Sydney Tours in [[Sydney Tour (April–May 2021)|April–May 2021]] and [[Sydney Tour (September 2021)|September 2021]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' introduced Sydney Sprint and Sydney Sprint 2 respectively, while the [[Anniversary Tour (2022)|2022 Anniversary Tour]] introduced Sydney Sprint 3.
Sydney Sprint returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as a course in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'', being the first course of the [[Propeller Cup]]. This version of the course combines all three of its routes from its ''Mario Kart Tour'' appearance, even though it released before Sydney Sprint 3.
