===''Mario is Missing!''=== | |||
Alongside the [[Spanish Parliament|Palacio de las Cortes]] and the [[Prado Museum]], the Ventas Bullring is one of the landmarks in Madrid in ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'', although it is exclusive to the DOS and Deluxe versions. It gets raided by [[Koopa Troopa]]s who steal a [[Matador's Cape]]; this causes the entire arena to shut down. Said cape is later retrieved by [[Luigi]] as he explores the city. He then brings it to the Ventas Bullring's information booth, at which point he is required to prove that the article of clothing is genuine (which he does by answering some questions, seen below). After this process, the arena is reopened to the public. | |||
