Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic marks the first appearance of "Game Over". When that game was later redeveloped as Super Mario Bros. 2, the jingle was given slightly more enhanced instrumentation, which is the version subsequent appearances of the theme in the Super Mario franchise are based on. The Super Mario Bros. 2 version is also included in the official albums FAMICOM 20TH ANNIVERSARY GAMEMUSIC DVD, Game Sound Museum: Mario Bros. / Super Mario USA, and Famicom Sound History Series: Mario the Music.
In the Super Nintendo Entertainment System remake of Super Mario Bros. 2 in Super Mario All-Stars, an arrangement of "Game Over" plays for the same purpose as in the original game.
In the Game Boy Advance remake of Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Advance, a slightly higher-pitched arrangement of "Game Over" plays for the same purpose as in the original game.
