I wouldn’t say totally different, Miyamoto was more involved in Doki Doki Panic than SMB2 USA. And Doki Doki already had Mario elements in it from the beginning, like pow blocks and stars, plus the whole changeover from the vertical concept back to side-scrolling.
Mario 2 USA was released in Japan as well. Later, though, in 1992.
Yeah but it’s a totally different game and not where Birdo is from. Was Birdo even original to SMB2 or was she an original Doki Doki Panic character?

That’s a good question. Probably Doki Doki.
