The Cutting Room Floor
O The Cutting Room Floor é um site dedicado à descoberta e investigação de conteúdo removido e não usado dentro de jogos. Desde menus de depuração, até música, gráficos, inimigos ou níveis não usados, muitos jogos contêm conteúdo que ninguém além dos desenvolvidores é suposto ver — ou que nem todos são suposto ver, mas que foram removidos devido a restrições de tempo ou económicas.
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.

Super Mario World
Developer: Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo
Released: 1990, SNES
Super Mario World was Nintendo's first title for the SNES, and it was rushed to release for this reason, leaving a lot of unfinished content.
It contains a wealth of unused levels, some of which are from extremely early in development. There's also a lot of unused objects, from a classic Piranha Plant to a ceiling full of Swoopers – all the way to an unused screen-sized cage!
All this, combined with a lot of interesting early graphics from the SNES Test Program, the SNES Burn-In Test Cart, and magazine preview screenshots, reveals that Super Mario World was originally intended to be a very different game: Super Mario Bros. 4.
