*''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'': A direct sequel to this game. Mario's [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini]] and [[Mega Mario|Mega]] forms return. Mega Mario will also earn several [[1-Up Mushroom]]s by destroying the [[Goal Pole]] like how he could originally earn 1-Up Mushrooms by destroying objects in this game. [[Dry Bowser]] also returns alongside his throwable bones. This game's remix of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' theme is used during the Dash Mario stages, as well as the Mega Mushroom theme. Several enemies retain their behaviors from this game, such as [[Big Whomp]]s, [[Scuttlebug]]s, and [[Whomp]]s; both varieties of Whomp also reuse their crushing sound effect and Scuttlebugs reuse the sound effect they make when they drop into the screen. [[Coin Coffer]]s also evade the player as [[Moneybag]]s did in this game. [[Big Cheep Cheep]]s retain their large size from this game. [[Gold Block|Flying Gold Blocks]] behave similarly to the red [[Flying ? Block]]s in this game, hovering on the [[world]] map and appearing near the player's spawn point within levels. The cloud-filled backgrounds seen in athletic levels and bonus areas are designed after the cloud-filled backgrounds seen in similar locations in this game and the background of {{world|6|bowsern2}} is designed after the background normally seen in [[castle]] boss rooms in this game. [[Flipper]]s, [[quicksand]], retracting staircases, [[Rope|tightrope]]s, and  [[track]]s also use their designs from this game. Nonlinear world progression returns and is again displayed using branching paths on the world select screen. World maps are also highly linear and progress from left to right, like in this game. [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6]] is filled with withered trees, like [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]]. The level progression bar is obscured by [[Boo]]s in [[Ghost House]]s, like in this game. The first level in both games feature a hidden [[Beanstalk|Vine]] leading to a [[Hard Block]] platform with a [[1-Up Mushroom]] and an aerial sub area. {{world-link|1|towern2|World 1-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}'s [[Goal Pole (secret)|secret exit]] is found in a similar manner to {{world-link|1|towern|World 1-Tower (New Super Mario Bros.)}}'s secret exit: via a hole on the right side of a room with shifting obstacles. The Hard Block platforming section of [[World 6-1 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6-1]] is reminiscent of the [[Red Block]] platforming section of [[World 5-C|World 5-C]] in this game. [[World 6-4 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6-4]] is aesthetically based on [[World 8-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-1]] from this game. [[Toad House]]s once again become permanently accessible after beating every level in the game.
