This is a list of quotes from Mario is Missing!

Bowser[edit]

• "So Luigi, you're looking for your brother? I can easily kidnap two plumbers as cheaply as one! Come here, you..." (unused)
• "D'oh! That was the only copy too!" (unused)
• "Gee, the penguins kinda look like ants from up here..." (unused)

Curator[edit]

• "Sorry, sir, but we're closed. Kleptomaniacal Koopas seem to have gotten clean away with King Kong."
• "There's a reward being offered and as soon as we recover what we have lost, we will reopen the Empire State Building."

Koopa Kids[edit]

Larry Koopa[edit]

• "Hi Luigi. We figured you'd be coming by. Pity you're never going to see your brother again. I don't even know which door leads to Mario."
• "Nice try, plunger puss, but only fire can hurt me."
• "No plumbers behind that door? Go ahead, try another. The wrong door has many handles, plumber dude."
• "Uh, Luigi, old pal, buddy. You know, I've been on your side all along. Really. Don't burn yourself with that fire flower, pal."
• "So, you're the great Luigi? You didn't even return all the artifacts in that city! You'll never find Mario!"

Roy Koopa[edit]

• "Give up, Luigi. We already have cartons of hairdryers and Arctic Express is knocking at the door with another load."
• "I knew the Koopa Critter defense would be too much for you. Try another door -- you can't stop us!"
• "Go ahead, lock 'em all. We don't care, we're up to our tails in hairdryers. Soon this place will be a hairdryer-heated hot-house!"
• "Oooh, I'm scared! NOT! Only fire can destroy me!"
• "The hairdryers are still humming, pal. You might fry me, but Bowser will still be plugging away!"

Wendy Koopa[edit]

• "Hey, how 'bout a kiss, Luigi-kins? No kiss? Then no brother!"
• "Still carrying a torch for me, hot shot?"
• "Big deal, one Portal locked. Return all the artifacts you want, Luigi-pie, WE'LL STEAL MORE!"
• "Let's hug and make up, Luigi baby. Wendy wants violets, not smelly old fire flowers."
• "Luigi, are you afraid of a few teensy-weensy turtles? Face it, handsome, you're not plumber enough to save Mario!"

Iggy Koopa[edit]

• "I see the dumber plumber. Bro is missing? What a bummer. Think the door will lead to him? Step on through--it's sink or swim!"
• "If it's my destruction you desire, give up, it only works with fire."
• "You locked a door, what a bore, now you'll try to lock some more. But Mario's gone and can't be found. Just give up now and get out of town!"
• "Big B's mad, he's out there burning, 'Cause your puny luck is turning. Flower-fry me, I'll go poof! But Bowser, dude, he's fireproof!"
• "So, you could not finish the city? I don't think you're very witty. We're turtle-iffic, from what I see. We've stumped the guy, Luigi!"

Ludwig von Koopa[edit]

• "How many Bowsers does it take to unscrew a lightbulb? Ha ha, only one, and he's dying to plunge Mario into darkness!"
• "You think YOU'RE in the dark, friend? Just imagine poor Mario without any lightbulbs!"
• "You made it past the others, but you won't get past me, you wrench wielding weirdo! I'm the mighty Ludwig von Koopa!"
• "At last, the Koopa defenses are wearing you down! No plumber can stop us! Soon, the South Pole will be one giant Koopa swimming pool!"
• "You can't hurt me. Only FIRE can destroy me!"

Lemmy Koopa[edit]

• "You know, Luigi, a smart guy like you ought to join up with the winners. Here's a nice turtle shell you can wear. If you can't defeat us, you might as well join us" (unused)

• "So, you had a little trouble in the city? Not everybody's cut out to be a super hero. Take a job with us, Luigi, you could always dump our trash and maybe do a little cooking" (unused)
• "On the level, Luigi. Put down that burning bloom man, and let's talk reason. There's no reason to get all fired up" (unused)
• "You're very strong and powerful, pal, but excuse me for not running. I mean, you don't have a fire flower, do you?" (unused)

Morton Koopa Jr.[edit]

Luigi[edit]

• "The Brooklyn what??? Hey lookit, there's his pad. But the walls are awfully high. Say, M, I left my toothbrush back in the Big Apple..."
• "Right, I'll watch the back door. Be way careful M, Bowser's one rascally reptile. And remember, don't take candy from strangers."
• "Hmmm... guess he took a wrong turn in there. Hey, these walls aren't so tall when you get up close. That does it -- I'm going in!"

• "You'll never find it now, I threw it over that wall." (unused)

Mario[edit]

• "Yo, 'bro. Just calling to check up. Looks like Bowser is raising his prices. Seems he can't collect enough ransom to pay for the hairdryers since you've been foiling his plans. Keep up the good work -- and get me outta here as soon as you can!" (Kathmandu)
• "Boy, Luigi, is Bowser ever mad. When you defeated Wendy Koopa we heard about it all over this place. I never thought a turtle could make so much noise. Sheesh! Whatever you're doing 'bro, keep up the good work. And get me outta here soon -- it's freezing!" (Amsterdam)
• "Luigi, did you hear? Bowser had to hijack the last truckload of hairdryers, since he couldn't afford to pay for them! He only got away with a few, though, thanks to quick by the truck driver. Boy, is Bowser ever mad. Keep on truckin', and come get me soon!" (Cairo)

• "Pesky Penguin Influx
  Thousands of penguins have begun arriving daily as their home in Antarctica is turning to soup.

Zoo officials have appealed to Mario and Luigi to restore the South Pole to its once frozen state."
• "'M' Club Meets
  The 'M' Club, consisting of Mayors from Moscow, Madrid, Marrakech and Mexico City, met yesterday in Montana.

Their only regret is that his name doesn't begin with an 'M'."

And ice.""
