Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story/Unused Battle Maps

From The Cutting Room Floor

This is a sub-page of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.

This is the list for all unused Battle Maps. We currently don't have any way of accessing these in-game.

Hmmm...
To do:

Maps x008E & x008D

Battle maps from Yoshi's Island in Partners in Time.

Maps x0090 & x008F

Battle maps from Yoob's Belly in Partners in Time.

Map x0091

MLBIS broom x0091.png

A battle map resembling a location in Yoob's Belly in Partners in Time. However, no place in Yoob's Belly looks like this, and it seems be closer to Bowser's Inside Story's artstyle. In addition to this, there's no "ledge" at the bottom of the texture like in most other battle maps, nor is there is a top screen map.

Despite this, its proximity to the used Yoob's Belly and Yoshi's Island maps seem to suggest it is a depiction of Yoob's Belly.

Maps x0099 & x0098

MLBIS broom x0098.png

A battle map similar to the default one, but with many differences.

  • The pipe that the Big Scutlet was on is here, though it seems to be more realistic, unlike the final one that resembled the other pipes inside Bowser's body.
  • The turquoise tube at the top is placed further down, showing more of it than the final background. It's also not covered up by the lighting.
  • There is a blue line at the bottom of the wall, spanning the entire background.
  • The wall's "bubbles" are different sizes towards the bottom and the top, rather than just being one uniform size.
  • The floor is slightly different.
  • Instead of having a ledge at the bottom of the floor, it has the organs that appeared in the Trash Pit making up a foreground instead.

Maps x009B & x009A

Simple maps for Pump Works without water. Most likely used as placeholders.

Maps x009D & x009C

MLBIS broom x009D.png

Simple maps for Pump Works with water. Most likely used as placeholders.

Map x009E

MLBIS broom x009E.png

Intended for a Giant Battle in Blubble Lake, but not used as the location of the battle with the Tower of Yikk is different. Similar to x00A2.

Map x009F

MLBIS broom x009F.png

Again, likely intended for a Giant Battle, looks very similar to x00A2 but it's in Dimble Wood instead.

Map x00A1

MLBIS broom x00A1.png

Looks like a zoomed-in version of x009F.

Map x00A2

MLBIS broom x00A2.png

Similar to x009E, except the lake is present and there are fewer rocks. The bottom seems to have been expanded to accommodate for the foreground water as well.

Maps x00A3 & x00A0

MLBIS broom x00A3.png

The two maps are completely identical. This same map also appears several times with the Field maps too.

It's similar to the top screen of the title screen, but with a moon. It also seems to extend beyond the DS's screen size medially.

Maps x00A4

MLBIS broom x00A4.png

A single battle map depicting Bumpsy Plains, however the camera angle is much different than what is normally used. It could have been for the Bowser growing cutscene before a Giant Battle starts, specifically, the part where his foot touches down.
