Because the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' was decided unsuitable for localization, Nintendo remade ''Doki Doki Panic'' into a ''Mario'' game and released it as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' outside of Japan. The world of Muu was changed to "[[Subcon]]", and Mamu's name was changed to "Wart" for an English-speaking audience. When the International version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' was released in Japan as ''Super Mario USA'', the original name of "Mamu" was used for Wart, although the name "Subcon" was retained, along with all the plot elements that were changed when the game was originally converted to a ''Mario'' title.
When ''Doki Doki Panic'' was released overseas as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Mamu's name was changed to "Wart". When the international version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' was released in Japan as ''Super Mario USA'', the original name of "Mamu" was used, but all other plot-related changes remained.


Like in ''Doki Doki Panic'', Wart uses the hijacked Dream Machine and his army (known as the [[8 bits]]) to conquer Subcon. The plot about the storybook is removed, however, and Wart is simply left undefeated. Instead of fighting him, the natives of Subcon (themselves called [[Subcon (species)|Subcons]]) make contact with [[Mario]] through one of his dreams, pleading for him to save them and telling him about Wart's weakness: distaste for vegetables. Mario initially dismisses the message as a regular dream, but the next day he, [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], and [[Toad]] discover a door to Subcon and decide to save the dream world from Wart.

Mario and his friends proceed to defeat Wart's 8 bits and the leaders, [[Birdo]], [[Mouser]], [[Fryguy]], [[Clawgrip]] and [[Tryclyde]]. They then confront Wart in the factory, and like the heroes of ''Doki Doki Panic'', use vegetables ejected by the Dream Machine to defeat Wart; the only difference is that Wart must be forced to swallow six vegetables. After his defeat, Wart is seen one last time during the victory celebrations, dazed, redfaced and being crowd-surfed across the screen by the now-freed Subcons. As he disappears off the screen, swirls and stars appear, implying that they serve him another beat-down for his actions.
The battle with Wart is basically the same, except Wart now requires six vegetables to be defeated. After his defeat, Wart is seen one last time during the victory celebrations, being crowd-surfed across the screen by the now-freed Subcons. As he disappears off the screen, the Subcons pummel him one last time. During the cast roll, Wart appears at the very end, where he laughs, implying that this isn't the last we've seen of Wart.
 
After the victory celebrations, Mario wakes up in his bed and is left to ponder if the events that transpired really happened or if they are no more than products of a dream, then returns to sleep.
