'''Subspace''' is an alternate, but possibly parallel dimension to [[Subcon]] that turns everything dark and reverses direction. It can only be accessed by use of the [[Magic Potion|Magic Potions]] (which create [[door]]s leading to the land) in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. When [[Mario]] or his friends enter Subspace, they only have a few seconds to get the [[Mushroom]] that may or may not appear; it depends on where in Subspace the hero has entered. In Subspace, [[Vegetables]] are transformed into [[Gold Coins]] when the player plucks them, giving the hero's extra chances to earn extra lives in the slot machine bonus game. The music playing in the background is the main theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. In both remakes, the background is the same but the level actually has colour and is not just simply black. Additionally, in [[Super Mario Bros. 2#Super Mario Advance|the GBA remake]], [[Yoshi Egg]]s could be found here after [[Wart]] is defeated.

It features dark terrain mirrored on a single screen, which the player cannot travel beyond. Subspace can be accessed only by entering a door from a [[Magical Potion]]. The player character can be in Subspace for a few seconds only, after which they are taken back into the main level. A [[Mushroom]] may appear in Subspace to be collected, depending on where the player character has entered. All items found in any available red [[grass]] are transformed into [[coin]]s when the player plucks them, though for the first two visits only, and any still-standing grass tufts give unripe [[vegetable]]s afterwards. The player can still lose a life by falling into a [[pit]] or drowning in [[quicksand]], but doing so allows another chance for obtaining coins. Depending on the area, players can also collect [[Cherry|cherries]], [[Super Star|Starmen]], and [[POW Block|POW]]s. Cherries and POWs do not vanish upon the player returning to the main level. There are no enemies, but [[Phanto]] can follow the player into Subspace if they were holding the [[key]]. Within this zone, a few [[jar]]s contain a '''Subspace Warp'''<ref>{{cite|auhthor=Farkas, Bart G|title=''Super Mario Advance'' Official Pocket Guide|page=105|language=en-us|publisher=Bradygames|date=June 13, 2001|isbn=0-7440-0077-7}}</ref> that can be entered for the player character to instantly skip over to a later world, similarly to a [[Warp Zone]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
<br clear=all>
 
In the game's two [[reissue]]s (''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''), the background is the same, but the level terrain is colored in, rather than black. In ''Super Mario Advance'' only, [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]]s are hidden in Subspace after [[Wart]] is defeated.
 
In ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', entering any jar in Subspace sends the player directly to Wart's chamber.
