Introduções de leveis descartadas#

Três Introduções de níveis descartadas existem, todas com uma placa de proibido Yoshi nesse local, que não aparece normalmente no jogo. Estes podem ser ativados quando o header de GFX de um nívelé igual a 2, 6 ou 8.

#2 Morton's Plains#

Level ID:

016, 017

Layer 1:

?

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

?

These two levels are duplicates of Donut Plains 1, referencing the same level data, the latter of the two having a glitched background and the name "#2 MORTON'S PLAINS" (an erroneous combination of the strings "#2 MORTON'S" and "PLAINS", suggesting the string table was changed). The level names are blank in the Japanese version.

O tilemap de plano de fundo do nível 017 é o mesmo visto na introdução do nível estória (0C5) e vários ouros, mas com gráficos e palheta de cores aplicados incorretamente.

TEST#

Level ID:

Vários

Layer 1:

30200

Layer 2:

Nenhum

Sprites:

Nenhum

Um nível provisório, consistindo da palavra "TEST" e uma seta para baixo feita de blocos, que quase todos os slots de níveis inutilizados são locados. O primeiro aponta em 012, porém a muitos que impossibilita de colocar aqui

The level seems to have been last used to test the secret 1-up points (the numbered mushrooms in the image); touching points 1-4 in order will cause the fourth one to spawn a 1-up.

Vertical Slope Test#

We've got slopes and that's all.

Level ID:

108

Layer 1:

?

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

?

A vertical level containing eight slope objects and some ground objects. The slopes here are specially designed to work with the odd memory map used in vertical levels, and their placement across a sub-screen boundary implies that the level was used to test this functionality.

Fixed that
Changing the tileset to "Underground 3" (normally unused) via Lunar Magic fixes the mountains in the background.

Ride Among the Clouds#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

30263

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C500

The first level in the ROM, aside from the TEST level, suggesting that this was one of the earliest levels created. It bears a vague resemblance to World 1-4 of Super Mario Bros. 3.

This level is notable for being the only known instance of the floating green/orange platform in the entire game. Furthermore, prior to discovering this level's sprite data, it was believed that the flying platforms from Forest Secret Area were the only platforms capable of activating the Fast BG Scroll sprite.

The pipe at the end of the stage leads nowhere. It has no screen exit assigned and isn't even set to be enterable.

Mushroom Scales#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

302BD

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C50E

This level's sprites indicate that the mushroom scale platform was once programmed very differently, and did not automatically spawn a second platform at a fixed distance from the first. Furthermore, it actually uses the classic Piranha Plants!

Boss Test#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

30338

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

?

A room with doors to each boss for testing purposes, leading to (from left to right) Bowser, Morton, Roy, Ludwig, Iggy, Larry, Reznor, Lemmy, and Wendy.

The two blocks at the start of the level contain a Cape Feather (left) and Fire Flower (right).

Lava Cave#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

304EB

Layer 2:

30464

Sprites:

3C575

A complete (aside from lacking a goal sublevel) layer 2 level. Note that this level uses the generic lava object 1A, whereas the final game always uses tileset-specific object 3A for underground levels, due to the sloped lava tiles overwriting the generic lava tiles.

Twin Blocks#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

3059C

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C59B

Two stone blocks with two Hotheads and two Sparkies moving around them. Probably meant to test enemies that follow walls.

Early Wendy's Castle#

Early Level: Toned down quite a bit.

Final Level: Comparison image.

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

305AB

Layer 2:

30701

Sprites:

3C5A9

Early Level (top): The only early version of a level found in the final game, 01A Wendy's Castle. This level is almost identical to the finished one, but harder. Also, there's no door at the end for some reason.

Final Level (bottom): Comparison between versions. The colors indicate which version is showing: Blue: Final; Orange: Early; White: Both.

Pipe 'n' Ground#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

3073D

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

?

A pipe and ground, the latter spanning 8 screens. Interestingly, it uses the ground normally reserved for Ghost House exits.

Ghost House Exit#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

30875

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C5FD?

Like the other Ghost House exit levels, this one is probably supposed to use an empty layer 2 level as its background. The specified sprite data simply contains a goal bar and may actually belong to the next Ghost House exit or some other level.

Cloudy Ghost House Exit#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

38260

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C5FD?

Same as above, except this one has clouds on layer 1.

Três Arbustos#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

38281

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

?

Três grandes arbustos, seu propósito é desconhecido.

Lonely Goals#

Level ID:

None

Layer 1:

?

Layer 2:

?

Sprites:

3C5FD, 3C602

Some orphaned pieces of sprite data. Both contain a single exit goal bar at coordinates (30,23), with the first being a normal exit and the second being a secret exit. The only known layer 1 data that matches this position is that of level 132, a Star World level, and levels 1F0 and 1F1, both underground exit sublevels.
