The '''{{wp|Sistine Chapel}}''' (Latin: '''''Sacellum Sixtinum'''''; Italian: '''''Cappella Sistina''''') is a famous chapel located in {{wp|Vatican City}}. It is one of three landmarks in Rome [[Luigi]] has to visit in ''[[Mario is Missing!]]''. The Sistine Chapel is well-known for its ceiling, a huge painting by Italian painter [[Michelangelo Buonarroti]]. During the events of the game, the [[Sistine Chapel ceiling|ceiling]] is stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s, and the chapel is closed until Luigi returns it, for which he is rewarded $900. From the Roman police officer, the player learns that "the Pope went through the roof" when the ceiling turned out missing.

He wasn't used to painting on plaster. It took Michelangelo over 4 years to finish painting the 10,000-square-foot ceiling. Much of the painting had to be done in an uncomfortable position. The artist was either lying on wooden scaffolds, or looking straight up. The Chapel's ceiling is breathtakingly beautiful. It is considered Michelangelo's masterpiece.'' | ||
