The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floor er et nettsted dedikert til å oppdage og dokumentere skjult innhold i videospill. Fra feilsøkingsmenyer til ubrukt musikk, grafikk, fiender eller nivåer, mange videospill har innhold aldri ment å bli sett av noen andre enn utviklerne — eller til og med ment for alle, men kutt på grunn av tids-/budsjettbegrensninger.
Feel free to browse our collection of games and start reading. Up for research? Try looking at some stubs and see if you can help us out. Just have some faint memory of some unused menu/level you saw years ago but can't remember how to access it? Feel free to start a page with what you saw and we'll take a look. If you want to help keep this site running and help further research into games, feel free to donate.

Donkey Kong Country
Developer: Rare
Publisher: Nintendo
Released: 1994, Super Nintendo
Donkey Kong Country is an SNES platformer released to much hype. It has the distinction of being the highest-selling non-bundled Super Nintendo game ever. Its graphics were created by capturing 3D models rendered with Silicon Graphics equipment. Those graphics were then packed into the ROM with a proprietary compression technique. This process came to be known as "Advanced Computer Modeling", or, "Magic".
As loaded as the game is with content, there's still more in the cartridge that remains unused. This includes unused bonus rooms, enemies, items, and scenery. Come read unused dialogue from that cantankerous chimp, Cranky Kong! Marvel at the unused animations from various characters! Like fonts? This game is loaded with them! A free movement debug mode can be enabled as well.
All this and much, much more in the Donkey Kong Country article.
