====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
In the Story Mode of ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', "Inside the Castle Walls" is incorporated into six background music tracks that build in excitement as progress on rebuilding Peach's Castle grows.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', an arrangement of "Inside the Castle Walls" plays during the game's opening cutscene before [[Bowser Jr.]] and the [[Koopalings]] attack.


The first theme is a downtempo piece that plays the motif on acoustic guitar, with shaker and wood block in the background, and leads into chords based on the B section of "Inside the Castle Walls". The second theme increases the tempo and plays the motif on pizzicato strings, while also adding flute to the first theme's orchestration. The third theme uses synthesized instruments, playing the motif on synth strings and multiple {{wp|staccato}} synthesizers. The fourth theme adds orchestral instruments, playing a variation of the A section on lead synthesizer, and the B section on strings. The fifth theme is a traditional arrangement of "Inside the Castle Walls", but with shaker and wood block remaining in the background. In the emergency theme, the motif is played on a sine synthesizer. Finally, the motif is used in the jingle that plays when Peach's Castle is 100% rebuilt.
Another arrangement of the theme serves as the background music for [[Peach's Castle]]. It is very faithful to the ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' original and adds {{wp|marimba}} in the theme's A section.
