Unused Graphics#

Found near all of Mappy's other graphics is this jump sprite that's never seen in-game. It could've been used for jumping on and off of trampolines, but instead it uses the first frame of the death animation. It's most likely leftover from the NES version of the game.

Secret Game Mode#

On the title screen, enter the code 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, Start. A secret minigame is unlocked where the player (Goro) must pop incoming balloons.
