 ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' came about after [[Nintendo]] of America deemed ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' too difficult for Western audiences,<ref>McLaughlin, Rus. (September 13, 2010) [https://www.ign.com/articles/2010/09/14/ign-presents-the-history-of-super-mario-bros?page=3 IGN Presents: The History of ''Super Mario Bros.''] ''IGN''. Retrieved August 2, 2017.</ref> which led Nintendo to redevelop the [[Family Computer Disk System]] game ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' into a ''Super Mario Bros.'' game for the international release. After its release, the game became a commercial success, and eventually the game became well received enough that it was also released in Japan. After performing well both critically and commercially, ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' has been rereleased as one of the four games featured in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', as well as having its own [[reissue|remake]] in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''. Many enemies introduced in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' have become common recurring enemies in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, such as [[Bob-omb]]s, [[Pokey]]s, [[Shy Guy]]s, and more, while the gameplay mechanic of picking up various items and tossing them has been reused in several later games.

 *In Japan, the American ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' was eventually re-released under the name '''''Super Mario USA'''''. It was marketed as the American ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', and the game is unaltered save for the title screen. As such, the ending cast uses the characters' English names (in the manual, their ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' names are also included). ''Super Mario USA'' is also the name of the game in the Korean Virtual Console version.<ref name="korea"/>

 ==Glitches==
 {{main|List of Super Mario Bros. 2 glitches}}
-===Jar-entering glitch===
-This glitch requires precise timing; the character must be small and must enter a jar at the same time they are hit by a [[Phanto]]. If this is done correctly, the defeat fanfare plays as usual. However, the character still goes through the jar. When they exit, the character has no health sections left, yet is still alive. This glitch remains in the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' enhanced port.
 ===Disappearing Mushroom Blocks===
 If the player throws a [[Mushroom Block]] offscreen and does not see it land, even to a place where it should safely land, it disappears until the player leaves through a door and comes back.
+===Lifesaving jar glitch===
