==History==
===''Mario is Missing!''===
[[File:Sydney MIM.png|thumb|Map of Sydney]]
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.

*Boy:
**''"It's the world's sixth largest country. But you can also count on it being the smallest continent."
**''"This place is a mega-cool wonder. They often refer to it as 'The Land Down Under.'"
*Tourist:
**''"I was most interested in the Aborigines. But now I want to see kangaroos too."
**''"It's a continent and a country, and it's the only one that's like that."
*Business Woman:
**''"You're in the southern hemisphere, its name means 'Unknown Southern Land' I hear."
**''"I always thought Australia's capital was spelled Sid's Knee."
*Scientist:
**''"I don't like to be bossy, but can't you recognize an Aussie?"
**''"Although Canberra is the capital, you're in Aussie's oldest and largest city."
*Police Officer:
**''"You're in Sydney, mate. Koalas and surfing...can't wait!"
**''"I knew the maps wouldn't fail ya', this is Sydney, Australia."

===''Mario Kart'' series===
[[File:MKT Icon Sydney Sprint R.png|frame|Sydney in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
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]] 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.
