Gamers should research first before considering the games they find as copies of popular ones.
let me tell you all what happend....nintendo made super mario bros 2 in japan in 1986. When it went to America, it was arrgued that the game was too hard for us americans due to america worrying about the risk of mario's popularity, so they decided to make a completley different game. Japan found a game a unsecessfull game called Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic and America agreed, so they changed and this is what we got: Super Mario Bros 2. (I hoped that helped with arguments).
@12krazy111 It wasn't because they thought it was too hard for Americans, they thought it would be too similar to the first game and that it wouldn't go over well.
@TheSmashbros45 It's not really "ripping off", though. This game was already originally meant to be a Mario game (a co-op one, in fact), but was retooled into Doki Doki Panic when the Yume Kojo 87 Festival asked Nintendo to make a game for the event. This game was still produced by Shigeru Miyamoto, and the music was still composed by Koji Kondo, and as I already mentioned, it was originally going to be a Mario game, anyway.
P.S. this is from another youtube video argument i found online
@dss103 mario bros 2 was the original game that appears like mario lost levels in the mario all stars versions. but nintendo of america didnt like the idea of having a new mario game with the same basic game format, so they took this game as the new mario game
@thebestalpha not to be an asshole but... "Doki Doki Panic is also Shigeru Miyamoto" lol Google translator :P i spent a while at it until i figured out it was Portuguese.
@spartan2222222222222 yes i just said is the worst translator it doesnt mean it doesnt work or something like that and sorry i didnt mean to troll i was just telling you
@spartan2222222222222 Actually it's the other way around. Who ever made Doki Doki panic copied. If you don't this it's copied, i translated(using PC program) the uploader's reply to your comment:
He said: Doki Doki Panic também é de Shigeru Miyamoto, então...
Which means: Doki Doki Panic is also Shigeru Miyamoto, then ...
Which makes me say something else, that means, that Doki Doki wasn't copied, it's just another version of Super Mario Bros. 2! 'cause Shigeru Myamoto made SMB in 1985!
I would say its was an Nintendo thing, but the original Mario, before Doki Doki, had them too remember? I guess after a while they said, lets make this exclusive to Mario?
@cvBon1 Actually, it's because Doki Doki Panic was originally going to still be a Mario game. A co-op Mario game, in fact. However, when Fuji TV asked Nintendo to make a game to commemorate their Yume Kojo 87 Festival, the game was retooled into Doki Doki Panic. So, you see, it was always meant to be a Mario game. Not only that, but Shigeru Miyamoto still produced Doki Doki Panic, and the music was still composed by Koji Kondo.

@spartan2222222222222 Because they are creations Nintendo made for Doki Doki Panic. Even Wart. The only "original" thing about Doki Doki Panic is the family, which - back then - was a mascot for a show on Fuji TV. Even the soundtrack was done by Koji Kondo!
nintendo shouldve changed a little, more like: let you UNLOCK the ability to jump on enemies like in the first super mario bros, get the sounds from the first super mario bros in there,make bowser the boss instead of wart, he could do the same thing as wart but fire instead of bubbles, keep the intro of doki doki panic but modify it to make it so peach was kidnapped. After completing the game give the player a new option called "Original Edition" this changes all enemies to mario enemies
Mario 2 is DDP with mario characters pasted in as well as mushrooms in place of heart containers, potions instead of lamps and some minor musical changes.

People need to stop complaining. Apparently, no one remembers Mario's first adventures didn't have any of the things found in the SMB series. The first game, Mario Bros., was just as different to SMB than SMB was to SMB2. In fact, if Nintendo hadn't gone back to the SMB 1 formula, no one would've been the wiser, and there would be no complaints.
lol no wonder im so much used to Mario characters in this game i kinda feel they were the original. i was also suddenly thinking that what if Wario coulda also been the tough character to play as besides Toad.
I would think since Doki Doki Panic wasn't intended to be a Mario game for America, they wouldn't have Mario references such as invincibility star and coins
The reason this was changed to SMB2 was because Nintendo didn't want to send the REAL SMB2 here because it would be too hard. So they didn't have one here. But they were already working on SMB3. So they just took Doki Doki Panic and switched it to Mario and called it Super Mario Bros. 2. But now for 600 Wii Points, you can play the real SMB2 which was renamed The Lost Levels for USA
But it feels like Nintendo were giving USA and Europe a big "FUCK YOU, YOU ARE TOO STUPID TOO PLAY SMB2 SO HERE IS A MARIO VERSION OF DOKI DOKI PANIC INSTEAD" This is the reason I hate this Super Mario 2 as a Super Mario game, but the game itself is a good game.
actually this first occurred in Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan... Luigi had a higher jump there too! The Japanese Mario 2 is what we call "Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels" here in the states. It's on Virtual Console and was in Super Mario All-Stars for the SNES.
One difference i noticed was the overworld music. In Doki Doki, the music is long toned and SMB it's short toned but longer. waterfalls were different and the door at the end of the stage was a mask in JP and a bird in SMB 2. There's more differences but those are few.
If the rest of the Super Mario Bros' are the same, then why is super mario bros 2 so different. I mean after that game, they went back to the original super mario bros, why did they make it like Doki Doki Panic? Thats what i dont get!
The Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. 2 was deemed "too difficult" for American gamers. Nintendo then switched the original 'Doki Doki Panic' sprites with Mario sprites and released it under a different name.
@zabeon Not really. The game was actually intended to be a Mario game during its conception, anyway. It was retooled into Doki Doki Panic when Fuji TV asked Nintendo to make a game for their Yume Kojo 87 Festival. Since Shigeru Miyamoto was still the producer of this game, and since it was originally intended to be a Mario game before this, I'd say that still makes those enemies legitimate Mario characters.
BTW this inveted many things also. This is the first ever game to depict luigi as bigger then mario or even to have him drawn! It's only due to Mama's size to the sprite mario replaced! If it weren't for this game, Luigi would be a direct twin in looks in the cartoon. Amazing ain't it!
The producer and composer was the same, forgot their name though. On the commersial for Doki Doki Panic, you'll see Mario shaking hands with the other Doki Doki Panic character also.
They then just took that game an moded it. Thanks to this moding of 2, Mario 3 was improved, the prototype was nothing more then Mario 1 itself! If you get the drift, if the japanese makers did not see Mario in that light no.3 would be horridly the first game with no extras or gfx improvments at all over here!
The producers thought that the original SMB 2 (the lost levels in All-Stars) was too hard for Americans, so they took Doki Doki Panic and reskined it with Mario characters and sold it here as SMB 2.
I remember as a kid really anticipating this game. My friends and I where VERY disappointed with what was released here in the US. I can remember thinking that this was NOT mario... at all! I rejoiced later, when Super Marios true successor was released later on in Super Mario Brothers 3. It was a much better game IMO.
In doki doki panic you had to play the whold game again and again with a different character until you beat it with all of them befor you could get the ending so I am glad it was different for the american version.
They slowed down the waterfalls in SMB2 because having a fast-paced movement such as a waterfall in a game like this might've had a high chance of one gaining an epileptic seizure.
Uma pena não terem lançado aqui o Super Mario Bros 2 de verdade. O jogo é bem difícil, sim, mas não justificava terem simplesmente trocado por outro jogo .__.
I like this game, but it's a pity they didn't release the "true" SMB2 in America. It's a really hard game, but it's not right to simply release a completely different game instead.
doki doki panic stole the "coin" sfx from smb1

Since Shigeru Miyamoto was still the producer of this game, and since it was originally intended to be a Mario game before this, I'd say that still makes those enemies legitimate Mario characters.

Why was the invincible star in doki doki panic? Wouldn't that have been stolen from Mario 1?

What about POW and the jump sounds.

Actually it was borrowed, thats why doki doki panic was chosen because it already contained similar mario themes.
In fact the entire story had nothing to do with the Yume show; so nintendo figured why not make a mario game.

BTW this inveted many things also. This is the first ever game to depict luigi as bigger then mario or even to have him drawn! It's only due to Mama's size to the sprite mario replaced! If it weren't for this game, Luigi would be a direct twin in looks in the cartoon. Amazing ain't it!

Did the Japanese set this up for us? Or did we modify the game?

The producer and composer was the same, forgot their name though. On the commersial for Doki Doki Panic, you'll see Mario shaking hands with the other Doki Doki Panic character also.
They then just took that game an moded it. Thanks to this moding of 2, Mario 3 was improved, the prototype was nothing more then Mario 1 itself! If you get the drift, if the japanese makers did not see Mario in that light no.3 would be horridly the first game with no extras or gfx improvments at all over here!

The producers thought that the original SMB 2 (the lost levels in All-Stars) was too hard for Americans, so they took Doki Doki Panic and reskined it with Mario characters and sold it here as SMB 2.

I knew that, I wanted to know who modified it with mario characters...

You might notice that those African tribal masks in Doki Doki Panic were changed to hawk heads in Super Mario Bros 2.

I remember as a kid really anticipating this game. My friends and I where VERY disappointed with what was released here in the US. I can remember thinking that this was NOT mario... at all! I rejoiced later, when Super Marios true successor was released later on in Super Mario Brothers 3. It was a much better game IMO.

In doki doki panic you had to play the whold game again and again with a different character until you beat it with all of them befor you could get the ending so I am glad it was different for the american version.

lol what were they thinking when they designed those waterfalls !
ProfessorJones7 3 years ago
They slowed down the waterfalls in SMB2 because having a fast-paced movement such as a waterfall in a game like this might've had a high chance of one gaining an epileptic seizure.

I'm glad it was changed. Doki Doki Panic seems slower.

FAST Waterfalls like those can cause epilepsia.

Uma pena não terem lançado aqui o Super Mario Bros 2 de verdade. O jogo é bem difícil, sim, mas não justificava terem simplesmente trocado por outro jogo .__.

I like this game, but it's a pity they didn't release the "true" SMB2 in America. It's a really hard game, but it's not right to simply release a completely different game instead.
