*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': The secret "Level Clear" tune and fireworks are taken from this game. The first tunes from the overworld theme is played during the beginning of the Staff Roll. The overworld theme is once again used as a cover for the Toad Houses. The underground theme is used as a cover for the volcano underground theme. The ending fanfare is covered when [[Kamek]] and [[Princess Peach]] are rescued in addition to when Mario and Princess Peach leave [[Bowser's Castle]]. Near the beginning of the game, [[Bowser Jr.]] states in a letter that he ordered his minions to stuff every [[Toad (species)|Toad]] they see into a [[? Block]], which might be a reference to the fact that [[Bowser]] transformed them into ? Blocks, according to the instruction book. Also, [[Roy Koopa]]'s Castle has three way corridors, with only one being the correct path. This puzzle mimics the puzzles in World 4-4, World 7-4, and World 8-4. {{world-link|coin|2|World Coin-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} is nearly identical in layout to [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] from this game. | *''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'': The secret "Level Clear" tune and fireworks are taken from this game.

*''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'': World 2-4 features [[wind]]. The extended version of the ending fanfare can be heard exclusively when Bowser is defeated in multiplayer. | *''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'': World 2-4 features [[wind]].

*''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'': The [[Penguin Suit]] is based on the suits in this game, mainly the [[Frog Suit]]. The [[Koopalings]]' battle theme is a cover and once again played when fighting against them. The Airship theme is a cover that plays on the Airships. The design on the [[Fortress]]es are based on the Fortress sprite in this game. [[Jellybeam]]s resemble the in-game sprites of [[Jelectro]]s. [[Stalking Piranha Plant]]s resemble [[Ptooie]]s whose behavior is largely given to [[River Piranha Plant]]s. The [[Enemy Course]]s are similar to the levels when fighting against a [[Hammer Bro]], [[Fire Bro]], [[Boomerang Bro]], or [[Sledge Bro]] and even use a cover of the song. Also, reserved power-ups can be used on the world maps. The game features an inventory window, rather than a summonable item, only accessible from the overworld, reminiscent of that of ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. Most of the Koopalings are fought in the same kind of land they are, like in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. For example, Lemmy Koopa is in charge of the ice-themed world in both games, and Wendy O. Koopa is in charge of the water-themed world in both games.

[[Toad House]]s feature checkered floor tiles like those seen in this game's [[fortress]] and kings' chambers. Artwork of Mario holding a [[Green Shell]] resembles [[:File:RaccoonMario GreenShell SMB3.png|promotional artwork]] of [[Raccoon Mario]] holding a [[Koopa Troopa|Green Koopa Troopa]] from this game.

*[[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]]: On the cover of the game disc (the side opposite with the part that reads the console), Mario, Luigi, Blue Toad, and Yellow Toad are positioned in the same way that the buttons on the European and Japanese SNES controller are. | *[[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]]: On the cover of the game disc (the side opposite with the part that reads the console), Mario, Luigi, Blue Toad, and Yellow Toad are positioned in the same way that the buttons on the European and Japanese SNES controller are. | ||
*''[[Super Mario World]]'': ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' is the first game in the 2D ''Super Mario'' series to use this game's variant of the power-down sound while still keeping the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' sound effect for entering and exiting pipes, as well as the first to use a [[Coin]] sound effect similar to this game's. The design on the Fortress doors leading to the [[List of bosses|boss]] is similar. Yoshis reappear, along with the sound heard when mounting onto Yoshi and the drumbeat that is added to the music, similar to this game. Parts of the castle BGM can be heard in the castle levels. The sound effect that plays when the invincibility wears off is taken from the [[P Switch|Switch Block]] when the activation is going to stop, as well as the sound that plays when the [[Super Star]] power-up runs out. The [[World 9 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9]] is similar to the [[Star World]] and the [[Special Zone]]. Also, World 3 has a switch that activates blocks, similar to the [[Switch Palace]]s in this game, without having to go through a level. Almost the entirety of {{world-link|7|castle|World 7-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} can be skipped by finding the secret exit in {{world-link|7|tower|World 7-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-Fortress}} and completing [[World 7-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-6]], like how the [[Back Door]] can be accessed by finding the secret exit in [[Valley of Bowser 2]] and completing [[Valley Fortress]]. The [[Koopa Clown Car]] returns. World 4-Castle, whose boss is Wendy O. Koopa, features Skewers, much like [[6 Wendy's Castle|#6 Wendy's Castle]]. [[River Piranha Plant]]s resemble [[Jumping Piranha Plant]]s. [[Jumbo Rays]] don goggles resembling those of [[Blurp]]s and [[Dolphin]]s. [[King Bill]]s are shortened in length like the [[Banzai Bill]]s from this game. Some members of [[Circling Boo Buddies]] make the same facial expressions as [[Boo]]s in this game. Boos also circle around [[Ghost House]]s like in this game. Artwork of Mario jumping with a [[Yoshi (species)|Green Yoshi]] resembles this game's box art. Artwork of [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] riding a [[Yoshi (species)|Pink Yoshi]] resembles [[:File:SMW Art - Yoshi and Berry.png|promotional artwork]] of [[Yoshi]] eating a [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|berry]] from this game.
