The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floor ist eine Seite, die der Entdeckung und Dokumentation unbenutzter und geschnittener Inhalte von Videospielen gewidmet ist. Von Entwickler-Menüs über unbenutzte Musik, Grafiken, Gegner oder Level: Viele Spiele werden mit Inhalten veröffentlicht, die niemand bis auf die Entwickler zu Gesicht bekommen sollte oder die, wenn sie doch für alle gedacht waren, aus Zeit- und Budgetgründen geschnitten wurden.
Unsere Spielesammlung ist ein guter Anfangspunkt zum Lesen. Lust zu recherchieren? Guck dir einigie zu kurze Artikel an und sieh nach ob du uns helfen kannst. Du erinnerst dich nur schwach an ein unbenutztes Menü/Level, das du vor Jahren gesehen hast, weißt aber nicht mehr wie man es erreicht? Beschreib deine Erinnerungen auf einer neuen Seite und wir sehen, was wir tun können.

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.
