    So I managed to somehow Google myself into this website

    The Cutting Room Floor is a site dedicated to unearthing and researching unused and cut content from video games. From debug menus, to unused music, graphics, enemies, or levels, many games have content never meant to be seen by anybody but the developers — or even meant for everybody, but cut due to time/budget constraints.



    So basically, it's a Wiki for leftovers left in videogames by lazy developers who left them in. Using the powers of MAGIC and UNHOLY SUMMONING CHANNELING THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD, they manage to find secrets that weren't supposed to find out. It can be leftover music, different item names, etc.

    It's pretty interesting what lurks in your games.

    Here's a few samples that I found:
    Mario & Luigi:Superstar Saga

    Starbeans Cameos

    There's text and an awful lot of sprites which suggest that originally, each drink you made at the Starbeans cafe was supposed to trigger a cameo by a Nintendo character. All the text is still in the game and written below.

    Fox McCloud:

    Fox : Fox here!

    Cashier : Hey! Aren't you Fox McCloud,
    the Star Fox leader? Are you here
    to taste our new juice? No way!

    Fox : Uh...yeah. So why don't you
    serve me up a cup at your
    special guest star rate?
    What's that? A call?

    A call : Fox! Help me!

    Fox! Where are you??

    Cashier : Wow! You sure are one busy guy...
    Er, I mean, one busy fox!

    Fox : Thanks for the discount!
    Will this cover the rest?
    Mission complete!



    There's more in the page

    A rough draft of the character Hugo was already in place in the game. He was added in the second version of the game, 2nd Impact.

    Super Smash Bros. Melee

    Pretty sure a lot of these are already well known. This one I didn't know:

    Also inside the debug menu is a cool little unused second-long intro sequence for all 25 characters, presumably intended for All-Star Mode. Go to MODE TEST TEAM > KIM and highlight ALLSTAR ENEMY, then press Left and Right to switch characters and hit A to view the intro.


    Advance Wars

    There's some interesting sprite changes made between the Japanese and the US version...look at Nell!

    Apparently in Pokemon Gold/Silver, they were going to allow you to name your mother's name...
