Mario Party Advance

Mario Party Advance
Developer: Hudson Soft Publisher: Nintendo Platform: Game Boy Advance Released in JP: January 13, 2005 Released in US: March 28, 2005 Released in EU: June 10, 2005 This game has unused modes / minigames. This game has unused graphics. This game has unused text.

To do: Regional differences, specifically the e-Reader support in the Japanese version.

Mario Party Advance bears very little resemblance to the console Mario Party games. There's very little multiplayer support, no real game boards, and the bulk of the game is a single-player game mode.

It didn't go over very well.

Unused Graphics

Dummy Icon

This icon appears in both the mini-game and Gaddget icon set. It was likely used to mark minigames that weren't implemented.

Pause Menu Text

This text appears next to the standard pause menu graphics. The hiragana translates to "Please turn the power off".
This might have been used for a Sleep function, or a placeholder.

The kanji at the top-right appears to say "English", likely to note what text block it appears in, though obviously they didn't translate the text.

Minigame Icons

Both of these icons are placed with the rest of the Gamble minigame icons.

Icon	Notes
	It seems to be a Pachinko game set against a verdant backdrop.
	It could have been for a "Bowser's Big Blast"-type game with Bob-ombs.

Other Icons

Unfortunately, all of these icons have been crossed off, so their graphics aren't fully intact anymore.

Icon	Notes
	An icon for the "Toad Force V" Gaddget, which is accessible in-game through unconventional means.
	An icon of Mr. I, perhaps you could have directed where it looked.
	Looks like a dumbbell, so it likely did dumbbell things.
	This one shows a machine with a meter of some kind, or possibly some kind of roulette game.
	These eyes are either above some flames or they're projecting lasers. Maybe an "X-Ray" Gaddget?
	This is just a temporary icon.
