Unused Music

Both of these can be heard in the Debug Menu.

Sound Group 02, Song 00)

A remix of the jingle that plays in the opening ("Welcome to Dinosaur Land...") and post-castle cutscenes in Super Mario World. Probably intended for the Software Toolworks splash screen, since that's where the same jingle is used in the DOS version of this game.

(Sound Group 02, Song 04)

A happy tune. One of the background instruments appears to be playing the 25m theme from Donkey Kong.
