'''Mushroom Kingdom II''' ({{ja|いにしえの王国II|Inishie no Ōkoku II}}, ''Ancient Kingdom II'') is an [[unlockable stage]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and a starter stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''; in ''Ultimate'', its Japanese name has been changed to {{ja|いにしえの王国 USA|Inishie no Ōkoku USA}} (''Ancient Kingdom USA''), to better reflect the Japanese title of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''Super Mario USA''.

In ''Melee'', Luigi is fought here for his [[unlock]]ing battle, even if this stage itself is not unlocked yet. However, if the player has not yet obtained the [[Birdo]] [[trophy]], they do not unlock the stage. In [[All-Star]] mode, this is where the player faces [[Dr. Mario]] and any of his teammates.

Contrary to this stage's name, it is not based on any location in the {{b|Mushroom Kingdom|location}}. This stage is based on the overworld sections of {{iw|mariowiki|World 1|Super Mario Bros. 2}} in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', with its graphical style based on the SNES port of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' included in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario All-Stars}}'' instead of the original NES version.

 

In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Toad]] enter the dream world of {{s|mariowiki|Subcon}}, which was taken over by the game's main villain, {{iw|mariowiki|Wart}}. The door they entered through leads to the game's [[mariowiki: World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|first level]], which takes place on a grassy terrain. World 1-1 features waterfalls with logs flowing over, which act as temporary platforms; {{s|mariowiki|beanstalk}}s, which functions similarly as ladders; and {{s|mariowiki|jar}}s, which functions similarly to the {{uv|Mario}} series' [[Warp Pipe]]s. The players can pluck tufts of [[grass]], which can spawn an item when pulled from the ground, and collect five [[mariowiki:Cherry|cherries]] in each level, which will spawn a [[Super Star]].

 

{{s|mariowiki|Pidgit}}s are small bird enemies that ride on flying magic carpets in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', first appearing in {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-2|Super Mario Bros. 2}}. Pidgits attack by swooping down at the player on their magic carpets. When they are defeated, their carpets can be ridden and controlled by the player, though these vanish after a short while.

{{s|mariowiki|Birdo}}s first appear in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' as the game's recurring mid-bosses, first appearing in World 1-1, but has later appeared as an ally in spin-off ''Mario'' titles since. The pink Birdos attack by spitting eggs from their nozzles, which can be picked up and thrown back to defeat them.

This stage features multiple elements from the overworld levels in World 1 in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', albeit with some visual differences between their appearances in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Ultimate''. The 16-bit sprites used in this stage (e.g. the Pidgit's magic carpet, the logs, etc.) in ''Melee'' are enhanced to use their original 16-bit sprites from  ''Super Mario All-Stars''. The grassy platforms, a single jar, two beanstalks, and five cherries appear as background elements, while the grass appears as a foreground element on the stage, though they cannot be interacted with.
