Some weeks ago, i saw this:





It was interesting to hear the effect at 1:02. The "grow"-SFX is the jingle of the flagpole accelerated. Nintendo started very early with the recycling of acoustic elements. o.O

That Pikmin was originally gonna be a game called Super Mario 128

There are plenty of unused models in the game. There is also some models from Mario games, they might be Super Mario 128 Leftovers.

Kuribo in japanese means Goomba, the Mario enemy. Strangely, this is the same model of Kug, an unused enemy in Super Mario Sunshine.





Now from super mario sunshine.


The model of Mario is very huge. The only way was replacing the Space Background to see him.

Instead of showing the character's contributions by showing how many times each character was used, it was going to give out a cash reward depending on the number of lives lost.

Times Died | Prize Money
...0 to 3..| $10,000,000
.....4.....| $1,000,000
...5 to 9..| $500,000
..10 to 12.| $100,000

....19+....| $10,000

Hi, I randomly found a secret gameover screen in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. I have no capture card though so I can't show it. Basically in the last level of the game there is a dark bones talk to it and there will be a flood of dry bones. If you do nothing for a long time they will take you to the center of the room and kill you. I saw dialogue for it on this website that has unused content, but it is still in the game. http://tcrf.net/Paper_Mario:_The_Thousan...Bones_Room

Very interesting, but I won't be able to make a post about it without more evidence.

I got interested about this and did some research:
I found three situations that can lead you to game over screen without dying.

- Joining the Shadow Queen video
- Reading Ghost's diary video
- Couldn't find video about the Dry Bones game over, but I found supporting source for it: Super Mario Wiki Under Paper Mario Series: "If the player does nothing while Dry Bones are crowding around them, he or she gets a Game Over."

I also found that there is a secret 11th and 12th page in luigi's diary in the first paper mario that is only viewable after beating bowser but before starting the credits. The eleventh one talks about his wish to sleep on the top bunk. The twelfth one just talks about how mario saved the day. Please pardon the horrible image quality I used my 3ds to get the image.

In Super Mario Bros. 2, Autobomb enemies slightly corrupt the game's RAM every time they shoot a fireball. There is a rare chance it will corrupt the character's vertical position on the screen, causing you to warp into the pit and instantly die.

Berry, I think I'll save that one for a Pikmin video.

Basically already done.

It's not a ship. It's an alien. He jumps out of the bush behind the fence.

It's better to back up your points with evidence.

The Koopalings were originally to appear in Super Princess Peach,4 years before they made their return in New Super Mario Bros Wii.

Unused sprites exist for all seven Koopalings, which suggests they were at one time intended to appear in the game, likely as bosses. For one reason or another, they were scrapped though, and would not return until New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Iggy Koopa himself appears in an unused level map, but only his idle animation is complete.
