It is not clearly known where Diamond City is located. The WarioWare series suggests that the city is located on a planet called Earth (mostly from various statements made by Orbulon). A map of a planet resembling the real world Earth that can be seen in Wario's House seems to support this assumption. However, a completely different Earth-like planet is seen in the opening cutscene of WarioWare Gold and in WarioWare: Get It Together! neither resembling the real world Earth nor the Earth seen in main series Mario games such as Super Mario Odyssey. In the opening cutscene of WarioWare: Get It Together!, structures from Santa Monica and Century City in California are used.[1][2] Additionally, descriptions for Orbulon's microgames mentions Asia and Japan. However, the Diamond City race course in Mario Kart Arcade GP features symbols such as E. Gadd's logo and Magic Paintbrushes, suggesting that Diamond City is located on the same Earth as the lands from that of the main series Mario games.

In WarioWare: Twisted!, it can be seen that Diamond City is located on an island.
