*''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' - One of the hazards of the Castle multiplayer stage is the moving ceiling that can crush players; this seems to be based on the moving ceilings in some of the [[fortress]]es in this game. The world themes are similar to the ones in this game. [[Toad House]]s return. When Mario is taking on a castle boss, the music is a cover of the boss theme from this game. [[Bowser Jr.]] fights like [[Boom Boom]] did in this game. [[World 8-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-1]] is based on [[World 8-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 8-1]] in this game, with both levels featuring haunted battlegrounds filled with [[Boo]]s and [[Bill Blaster]]s. The Toad House theme is arranged in the minigame [[Bob-omb Reverse]]. The Spade Bonus theme is also arranged in the minigame [[Wanted!]].

*''[[Super Mario World]]'' - The [[item storage|Item Stock]] returns from this game. A Monty Mole, which first appears in this game, appears as part of a boss called Monty Tank. Wigglers also appear in the game. [[Grinder]]s don't appear in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', but spiked balls appear in the game, having the same function. Also, this game features [[Pipe Cannon|Warp Pipe]]s that can shoot the player into the air like [[Cannon]]s. The jump sound effect is reused when Mario or Luigi jumps.

*''[[Super Mario 64]]'' - There are several characters from this game reappearing here, such as [[Dorrie]] and [[Sushi]]. Some of the Mario Bros.' techniques, such as the [[Triple Jump]], the [[Wall Jump]], the [[Ground Pound]], and the [[Swim|Flutter Kick]], are also brought to 2D ''Super Mario'' games starting from this game. Also, a few voice clips are reused, like "It's-a me, Mario!", and "Here we go!" The theme used for [[Invincible Mario|Invincible Mario/Luigi]] is the same as the theme for [[Wing Mario]] and [[Vanish Mario]] in this game. Bowser's voice effects in ''New Super Mario Bros.'' are his computerized roars and growls from the [[Nintendo 64|N64]] era. In all follow-ups to this game, he uses his modern voice clips as provided by [[Kenny James]]. [[Chain Chomp]]s can be freed by [[Ground Pound]]ing their posts three times.
