The Dream Machine[1][2] is a machine used by Wart prior to the events of Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2.

History[edit]

Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic / Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

The Dream Machine plays a different yet similar role in the stories of Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2. In Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic, the Dream Machine is created by the Muu people to control the weather and sustain good dreams to all the inhabitants. Mamu (later renamed Wart) tampers with the Dream Machine to produce several monsters. The Muu people initially stop Mamu, but when the twins Piki and Poki accidentally rip out the last page of the book, Mamu attempts to rewrite the ending and kidnaps them. At the final battle, the Dream Machine creates vegetables, which the twins' family throws into Mamu's open mouth four times to defeat him.

However, Super Mario Bros. 2 does not use the Dream Machine's background as the prize of the peace-loving people, but the Dream Machine is still implied to create monsters that Wart then uses to increase the numbers of soldiers for the 8 bits and take control of Subcon. During the final battle in this version, Mario and friends need six vegetables from the Dream Machine to defeat Wart, rather than four.

BS Super Mario USA[edit]

The Dream Machine returns in BS Super Mario USA. It only makes an appearance in Wart's secret room in a jar from Subspace that is almost identical to that of the factory's final room. The Dream Machine is used for the same purpose it had in the first game.
