Well yeah, but it's still called SMB2 in America.

It is actually a re-skin of Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic. It was adapted to be SMB2 in the US as Howard Phillips thought the original SMB2 would be too difficult for an American casual audience. The original SMB2 was released as SMB: the lost levels in the USA and the US version was released as SMB: USA in Japan.
