"rather dull game" seems biased
while, it is dull, very, very dull.-- JesseMueller 00:11, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Do NOT upper-case the letter "I" in "is" for "Mario Is Missing!", because "is" is a very common-type word. --ZachKudrna18@yahoo.com

I own the Macintosh version of this game, but I don't see it referenced on this article. Shouldn't it be included? Thunderforge 02:52, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
The article claims that "The SNES version runs on a very heavily modified Super Mario World engine". By comparing the radically different physics of the two games, I can say that it's most likely not the case. I also took a look at Mario is Missing's RAM memory layout, and it wasn't even remotely similar to that of Super Mario World, making it very unlikely that it's based on SMW's code at all.
I get the feeling that whoever wrote that statement couldn't tell the difference between "game engine" and "graphics". (MiM does use some SMW graphics.)
My suggestion is to either find a source to back up the article's claim, or to remove it.

Are the two games similar in any way shape and/or form? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.45.112.188 ( talk) 08:40, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Should there be any reference to the fact that one quote ("You won't find adobe here in Nairobi!") and the Luigi sprite from the PC verison of the game have become popular internet memes? If so, I'm not sure where it would go. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoshiman64 ( talk • contribs) 22:47, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Yesterday I rewrote the German Wikipedia article to Mario Is Missing! because it was quite lacking. The original version seemed to have copied the release dates, publishers and developers from the English Wikipedia without citing any sources. So I looked through this version here, but it seems that in this version the data on the release dates, publishers and developers aren′t quite right either. For my rewriting of the German version I primarily used these sources: [1], [2], [3] (Note: These sources are cited in the English version as well). But these sources seem to contradict what is written in the section "Development and release" and the infobox. E.g.: The MS-DOS release was in 1992, not 1993; Mindscape published the console versions and Radical published the MS-DOS version.
I know that there are sources for the other claims made in the English version. Unfortunately, I couldn′t access every source and the sources I could access didn′t say anything about the contradictory statements.
Long story short, I think that the data on release dates, publishers and developers and therefore the section "Development and release" is only semi-right and that′s why I reassessed the article to C-Class. SeGiba ( talk) 11:47, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
