  For SMW, the blue jay was also used in a scrapped level where four of them carried Mario in a big cage while autoscrolling

  Takashi Tezuka: &quot;I wanted to have more Monkeys.&quot;<br><br>I think this comment sums up development time constraints pretty well.

  I really like the animation mock-ups you&apos;ve made for these scrapped/unused ideas.

  Those trick shots with the fruits are really satisfying to watch.

  i think the boo keys were used as a method to access the other areas in the mansion ( the second flour, big boo&apos;s balcony and the third flour and the cottage ) to prevent people from just wall jumping and beating the level in an unintended way

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkZIew8T5d4&amp;t=145">2:25</a> they&apos;re now unused fin fact they are seen briefly when the player gets sent back to a stage after dying or game over and the upwards one is used as the climbing sprites

  Delightful to see how much work was put into the ball physics in Sunshine and then instead of working with those, they toss Mario himself into the giant pachinko machine, with deadly results

  The unused world map sprites for smb2 would’ve also been from RAM limitations as old games didn’t have a lot of ram storage. So they could’ve been scrapped for that reason too
