Improved Night Backgrounds & Classic Moon in NSMBU! (Super Mario Maker 2 Mods)

Here are 2 night mods for Super Mario Maker 2: One that replaces the Moon from the New Super Mario Bros. U with its classic design from Super Mario World and a mod that "fixes" the night backgrounds from New Super Mario Bros. U, they are originally just basic backgrounds with a night sky but this mod adds the more detailed day background but with a night sky.

This is way better than what we got. Hopefully if night levels return in a SMM3 they look like this.

[@Zobbes]

For a style nintendo loves to promote, they sure seem to not give it a lot of love sometimes.

[@Zobbes]

@Dry Boi Yeah, that's because instead of using models, they use 2D prerendered sprites to save space and make the game not lag with an overuse of enemies.

Its sad that fans and modders give this game more love than Nintendo does. Seriously Nintendo, the backgrounds in the night themes are pure lazy

[@IndoChinaYToffical]

Yeah, Nintendo made nighttime themes look like a galaxy

[@dani-boy6420]

For the nighttime sky theme/Space, they should just make the background like that. But the fact the castle and UNDERGROUND theme has a galaxy like background, is just lazy.

Dude fr it’s so weird feeling like I’m actually in the mushroom kingdom and not in outer space

[@Raddish-IS-Radd]

​@Squid gamer_GG0 as well as ghost house although it's barely noticeable

[@SuperMarioAutist]

I wish these backgrounds were in the actual game itself. They look so pretty, especially the ground and jungle one.

[@bombyman84]

I love this mod so much. The current Night levels look AWFUL imo (except Sky, Airship, Underwater and Ghost House) so this makes me really happy! Thinking about it though, imagine how sick it'd be if the Forest night theme looked like that one level in New Super Mario Bros U that looked like a painting!

[@UtenSwitch]

The only time Nintendo got that right was only in the Underwater and Ghost House theme.

[@sirnuma24]

And Airship. Technically speaking, the Sky also got the right background, being the Starry BG that's unfortunately also used by six other themes where it doesn't fit at all.

[@falco.19]

Personally i think it doesnt fit at all in the castle because its so stupid that in the CASTLE there are stars everywhere? Where is the sense and there are already night themes in the original games like nsmbu for example world 4 the entire world is nightthemed and world 5 some levels are at night i mean they could put the snow and forest underground and castle already finished in the game

[@sirnuma24]

@@falco.19 Fun Fact: The Night Castle background from NSMBU (along with a new vertical variation) can be found within the files of SMM2, completely unused. I have no clue why they didn't use it in the final game.

[@kwisowofer9872]

NSMBU’s actual night snow background was the best...

[@IndoChinaYToffical]

Or in Switzerland style

[@pinkshark4205]

I still don't know why they gave each level and theme the same ugly space theme. It would've been cute if it was just for the sky theme, because it actually makes sense, I don't want the people playing my levels to be underground and see space in the background! that's just not cute...

[@kylecunns]

Cause when I think of nighttime space is not the first thing that comes to my mind

[@pinkshark4205]

@@kylecunns Because it's not? I think of the night sky. Sure, you're looking at space, but what happened to all the clouds, the hills, the scenery. It just feels like a cop-out that they went for the same design in every level style.

[@foursidess]

this looks way better than the normal sky backgrounds!

[@ivverivve0049]

Foursidess I agree with you 100%!

[@nincrony3718]

How in the world is this not what it looks like in-game I mean, the most ridiculous thing is, that they even made the Cave night background stars This looks just perfect Well done!

[@TheGameCreator13]

I wish the moon had a more interesting use than just maxing out you lives in Endless mode immediately. Just makes the dynamic of getting more 1ups pointless since it's effortless to grab Here's an idea: Collecting a moon makes it impossible to lose a life for 7 seconds in endless mode. You can still die but the 1up counter won't go down when you do. So you have to decide when to grab it. Vaguely resembles its old functionality but in a way that's interesting for Mario Maker specifically

[@WeekCraftYT]

Wdym, it doesn't max your lives in endless

[@kwisowofer9872]

It kills all enemies on screen. That’s useful!

[@honeybell4403]

I mean, the moon in SMW gave you 3 lives sooooo... and besides it has to be in an area with a LOT of enemies on screen so you have to be strategic anyways.

[@TheGameCreator13]

Yeah I was just unaware of how it actually works. My only experience was it giving 3 lives instantly. But knowing how it actually works, I feel it's mechanically good enough considering the source material

[@murab271]

The lava bubbles in the forest level should've been purple like the poison

[@GeoshiTheRed]

Agreed. Yet Yoshi can spit purple poison balls and Cheep Cheeps can cover themselves into poison at night in the forest.

[@SuperMarioAutist]

I think they should’ve made it so if the lava bubble touches the poison water it turns purple.

[@layzonalburquerquecanalofi9045]

exept in SMB because, the Lava bubble touch in the poison , te become dark green

[@Sub2MisterEnderboss]

Yea i’d like if the lava bubbles would change liquid, like for example in the forest theme they turn into water bubbles and poison bubbles in night

[@GeoshiTheRed]

I'd sure love a mod that has Snow Spikes replacing regular Spikes in Snow levels and Poison Bubbles from Super Mario Run replace regular Lava Bubbles in Night Forests. EDIT: You forgot to show off the Night Sky (athletic) and Ghost House.

[@64ios]

Ghost Houses and Underwater already have regular backgrounds in night theme and the Sky theme uses the defaul since the basic night sky makes sense there.

[@katjohnson5860]

The ghost house already shows up in night

[@alyplanty0837]

Ghost House and Underwater have unique ones since the darkness could easily blend with the background (it's more apparent in SMB and SMB3) Airship has a unique background, just for the sake of the lightings, as most people imagine thunderstorms when it's raining at night Snow actually uses a unique background, but sadly it's just the regular "space" one but bluer

[@gummygecko23]

The forest one looks amazing!!

[@JustJamesNotJerry]

Wow those look so SOOOOO much better than the ones in game.

[@YoshiRantsAndSalutesChannel584]

Oh My God That Castle Nightt Theme Looks So Good 😃😃😃😃

[@JJ-zo7jv]

The desert looks so good. My favorite one. I will forever not understand the reasoning for leaving these types of things out other than they got lazy because they didn’t have to

[@Papa-Bandy6505]

This is how it should look. Great job, I love it!

[@SuperMarioAutist]

At this point, nintendo should hire fans to do all the work for them, if they’re too lazy to change the backgrounds for all six styles.

[@ivverivve0049]

All the potential Nintendo missed is sad to witness!

[@JC02official]

I wish that someone could make an ASM mod for this game. Custom enemies and sprites would be amazing. Custom playable characters such as an improved version of the costumes in SMM1

[@ineedhelp8727]

These night themes are wayyyy better, and that makes me wonder why nintendo made the night themes so terrible in the NSMBU style

[@imaginationsquare]

[@Raddish-IS-Radd]

Wow the snow night theme actually looks like nsmb u snow world

[@blaster3800]

The night forest never looked like a forest to me, now it does.

[@Trija204]

This is beautiful! This really adds life to the night themes. Though there is something weird, the airship theme at night is the only night theme in the game that actually has a background with rain and a stormy sky, so why didn’t they just do that for all other game styles?

[@jashi2920]

This looks so faithful to the original game. it looks really good.

[@jenniferglass756]

In this teaser, it adds that night theme and angry Sun and beautiful moon are added in sm3dw style, all the game style bgs at night have a redesign now!

[@shroomfruit345]
