I know this isn't a new thing, but there are many backgrounds and tilesets in NSMBe that have duplicates of themselves. For example: Tilesets + Fore-/Backgrounds 24 and 25. They're exactly the same, and when you replace one of those tilesets/backgrounds, the other one will be replaced too. Because they use the same graphics files.

I really don't get why Nintendo made it this way. What's the point of it?

...ask Nintendo?

I assume there's many duplications that can be made for multiple purposes (for example, there's that one BG that had the regular style of brick/blocks, and the one that had underground style ones), regardless which game.

Probably, Nintendo knew that NSMB would have been hacked, and that sooner or later someone would have asked for it...

Probably because (example) the BG 25 can have the mountains taller without interfering with the tilemap of 24. Or with the BG 24 Mario goes up the Mountains of the BG are repeated, in 25 no. They are only suppositions.

For the tileset... I don't know.

Mm, well, then I guess (almost) none of those bgs will be identical. Only the same graphics + palette.

If they did know, then I'm sure they didn't care at all.

If you think someone will maybe hack your game in the future, would you automatically think they'd randomly ask somewhere about a certain element of the game?

I haven't the slightest clue as to why there are duplicate tilesets.
As for backgrounds, I believe it has something to do with the sounds and music. Take the Mario and Luigi vs song for example as it only loads on certain backgrounds otherwise it's nothing or a small tune.
