Super Boy I is a bite-sized MSX port of Super Mario Bros., containing half the worlds and nobody to rescue.

Unused Graphics

The logo of Zemina, the game's developer/publisher. Likely intended for the title screen.

A crouching sprite for Super Boy after being powered up by a Super Mushroom. However, pressing Down while powered up has no function, leaving this heavily-squashed sprite unused.

The axe seen at the end of each castle level goes completely unused here - the player simply walks off to the right of Bowser's bridge to finish the stage.

The coin counter icon. In-game, the word "COIN" is displayed instead.

The end-of-stage flagpole and castle flag aren't used, either.

Part of the stem for a mushroom platform. The rest of the graphics don't seem to exist in the ROM.

Water coral and ground. As there are no water levels in the game, they have no use.

A falling Spiny Egg. The Spinies fall to the ground in their final form and standing in-game.

Piranha Plants. None of the pipes in any level contain them.

The flames Bowser fires in the castle stages, compressed in size compared to their SMB1 originals. Bowser is programmed only to hop around the bridge, thus the fire graphics are never seen.

Unused Music

The theme that plays upon completing a castle level in SMB1.

An off-key version of the classic Mario death jingle. The power-down sound effect plays instead.

Unused Sounds

A different version of the coin sound.

An unused version of opening an item box.

A sound effect possibly intended for kicking a shell. Koopa Troopas die in one hit in this game, so it has no use.
