Unused sprites found within the file of Mario walking and checking out some paper.
Unused Music
Present at 0x03ED3F is what appears to be a test track for vibrato effects. The final note repeats indefinitely. This track is not referenced in the music pointer table.
A noise channel test track, present at 0x03EDAC. Curiously, this track is actually referenced as the final entry in the music pointer table. This track is panned to the right for some reason.
An arrangement of "Tulip", a Japanese nursery rhyme. Located from 0x03DDCD to 0x03DEFA. This track is not referenced in the music pointer table.
