This is a list of pre-release and unused content for the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

Early builds[edit]

Reveal trailer[edit]

This game was initially titled Paper Mario 2 and featured a far different logo, one reminiscent of the original Paper Mario's logo.

Part of the original trailer shows an extra ledge above the pipe in the room directly east of the Thousand-Year Door, with an HP Plus badge on it. It could be accessed via a moving platform which had a wall over it halfway, which appeared to be passable with help from Vivian. Also, Beldam and Doopliss were originally going to be fought somewhere in Riverside Station. The trailer also showed that Item Shops would be labeled with Mushrooms, much as in Super Paper Mario, rather than the Fire Flowers seen in the final game. Red Bones was initially named "Red Koopa Skeleton". In the same trailer, one can see that "Tornado Jump" was initially called "Hurricane Jump". The status element Slow had a different icon, a snail instead of a sad purple face. The jumping and partner swapping sound effects from the previous game are used.

Interactive Multi-Game Demo Disc Version 18 Demo[edit]

A demo version released on a GameCube promotional disc includes various scriptual differences. Though the demo only allows for fifteen minutes of play at a time, the files inside of the game reveal several early concepts and placeholders.[1]

  • If tattle is used outside of battle, Goombella will say "I usually would have something witty to say here, but I'm waiting for the final version!", which would imply that the actual tattles for areas had not yet been written.
  • X-Nauts are called "Boomer Gangers", the Red Bones boss is called "Red Koopa Skeleton", and Dull Bones are called "Koopa Skeletons."
  • In addition to the above, Pale Piranhas were simply called "Piranha Plants" and Poison Puffs were called "Poision Foggs."
  • Petal Meadows is called "Star Crystal Field" by the menu and "Petal Fields" by Goombella.
  • Glitzville is referred to as its Japanese name, "Oolong Town", implying it hadn't been localized yet. In addition, Twilight Town is called "Spectralia" several times in the script - a completely original name.
  • All instances of Rogueport being used are instead spelled "Roqueport."
  • Hooktail is said to be weak to frogs instead of crickets.
  • Goombella's description on the partner menu also mentions "Goomelda, wisest of female Goombas", a reference to the character Zelda from The Legend of Zelda series.
  • Niff T. is named "Toodle" in the demo, Bub-ulber is named "Bub-ulbo", Toce T. is named "Dain T", Merlee is named "Sando", Ms. Mowz is named "Miss Mowz", and Pungent is named "Punto."
  • Dried Bouquets are named "Dried Flowers", Life Shrooms are named "Emergency Shrooms", and Courage Shells are called "Courage Colas."
  • The Spin-Jump is called a "Ground Pound" in the demo.

Unused data[edit]

Debug mode[edit]

By pressing X Button, B Button, R Button, B Button, Y Button, and L Button on the title screen, debug mode is enabled. Subsequently, pressing Z Button on the title screen displays the game's build date, and crashes now display a crash report. This works on all versions.[2]

Graphics[edit]

All of the partners from Paper Mario were going to appear but were cut-off as well. Lady Bow and Parakarry were the only ones left. There was also a strange robot creature and two palette swaps of Screamy. Admiral Bobbery also had a different sprite, which depicts him wearing army gear. There was also going to be a dark version of the Atomic Boo, which would've appeared in the Poshley Sanctum as a mini-boss. The Dark Atomic Boo also went unused in Super Paper Mario, but was fully coded instead of only having graphics. Bonetail's head also looked different, having blue eyes, as he did not have eyes in the final game. A businessman Cheep Cheep was going to appear with an unknown role. Red variants of Buzzy Beetles, Parabuzzies, and Spiky Parabuzzies were going to appear, but they were removed in exception of the pair of Glitz Pit Red Spike Tops. Hyper and Ultra Bob-omb variants were also unused. Luigi was planned to wear the Poltergust 3000 during his appearances as a member of the audience during battles, but the sprites go unused.

Unused status effect[edit]

Unused sprite of POW Down from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

An unused POW-Down status exists in the game's coding under the name "battle_common". When hacked into the game, it displays the message "Attack has dropped!"[3]

Music[edit]

There are two unused tracks. One sounds like a theme used for an introduction of a character, and the other sounds like a boss fight. This may mean that another character was going to be in the game but was written out of the final version, like these songs.

Audio.svg Unused theme 1 - This song is somewhat similar to the introduction of a new Pixl in Super Paper Mario. It also sounds like an unused song from Luigi's Mansion. It was apparently supposed to be played at Riverside Station.

Dialogue[edit]

Fully translated[edit]

Presumably for the sake of completeness, all of Mario's partners he has in the Glitz Pit have dialogue for when he gets promoted to the major league there. However, only Yoshi's is used, as he was required to beat the Iron Clefts and there's no opportunity to change partners in the ensuing cutscene.

Partner Dialogue
Goombella Uh, yeah... What, no hellos? These guys are totally freezing us out, Mario.

What? What's wrong, Mario? WHAAAAT? Are you saying the champ's belt...
You're totally right, Mario! This Crystal Star...is a fake!!
Sheesh, sorry, Mr. Birdie. I didn't mean to say your belt was fake. Take it easy.
I think I tweaked him out a little bit.
Anyway, we have a problem now. The map definitely pointed to Glitzville... If that thing on the champ's belt ISN'T the Crystal Star, then... Where the heck is the REAL one, huh?
Mario! Your Mailbox SP just went off! Who'd you get mail from?
What? Who's this X guy? You think he really knows about the Crystal Star? Whoever he is, why would he want to give us information? I don't trust this guy...

Koops Ummm... Judging by the dead silence, I'd say these guys don't like us much.

Ummm... What's up, Mario? What? Are you serious? The champ's belt?
Mario! You were right! This Crystal Star...is a fake!!
Ummmm... Gee, sorry, man... I didn't mean to insult your fancy belt, there...
Ooooops. I made him mad.
Well, forget him. We have bigger fish to fry. The map pointed to Glitzville... But if the gem on that guy's belt isn't the true Crystal Star, then... Where's the real one?
Umm... Mario? You hear that? I think you just got an e-mail. From who, though?
Um... Who's this X character? He talks like he knows all about the Crystal Star... Why would someone want to help us with this, anyway? Seems kind of fishy...

Flurrie Oh, dear... These fellows don't seem quite as friendly as the minor-leaguers...

Mario, darling, what is it? Come again? The champ's belt, you say?
My stars, it's completely true! This Crystal Star...is a fake!!
Oh, I do apologize, sir. I didn't mean to embarrass you in front of your belt.
Oh dear, I do believe I made that chicken angry.
In any case, we've larger issues to deal with. The map most assuredly pointed here... If the ornament on that fellow's belt isn't the real Crystal Star, then... Where in the world could the real one be?
Mario, darling! Did I just hear your Mailbox SP go off? Who would be e-mailing you?
My! Who is this X fellow? He speaks as if he's an expert on the Crystal Star... What would motivate him to help us in our quest, though? This seems suspicious...

Similarly, in Twilight Town, all then-five partners have dialogue for when the Mayor sends Mario off and wishes him well. Only Vivian's is used because, at the last opportunity to change partners, Mario had no choice but to use Vivian as Doopliss had turned the others against him.

Partner Dialogue
Goombella All right, Mario! Let's get back to Rogueport, OK?
Koops Well, Mario... Let's head back to Rogueport, huh?
Flurrie Are you quite ready, Mario? Let's get back to Rogueport.
Yoshi Okeydokey, Gonzales! Let's kick it back to Rogueport!

Apparently, at one point, the Pit of 100 Trials was going to have traps on some floors:

The devices on this level are now active. You can no longer change allies during battle! The device on this level is now active. You can no longer use your hammer in battle!
The device on this level is now active. You can no longer use your jump in battle! The device on this level is now active. You now receive double coins after battle!

At one point, upon defeating the Shadow Queen, saving, and restarting, Mario would begin the game by himself and would have to manually get his partners back together again. Only Koops, Flurrie, and Yoshi have completed dialogue, the latter saying something about how he "registered us for the Glitz Pit again". Vivian has untranslated Japanese dialogue.

Other dialogue[edit]

Inside the game data, dialogue files are stored in the directory "root/msg/$C", where "$C" is an appropriate language or country code, such as "US". The Japanese version is simply stored in "root/msg" without the language or country code. The dialogue is split between 1 global file (game-wide) and 259 local files (for the separate locations). English and other Latin languages are stored in raw ASCII format. Japanese version is stored in the Japanese variant of ANSI format (Shift-JIS), with a few modifications to save space.

Names in parenthesis in the table headers (e.g. "hom_00" below) are the names of the text files in which the dialogue can be found. Names in the first column of the table are identifier strings used for specific dialogue scenes within those files.

The dialogue uses several XML-like tags to alter the presentation of the text. These are enclosed between "<>".

  • <wait> causes the text to pause.
  • <dynamic> causes the dialog to be rendered as "falling" onto the screen.
  • <wave> causes the letters of the dialog to move in small circles.
  • <k> pauses the text until the player presses A Button
  • <p> scrolls the text upwards to make room for more.
  • <icon> renders a small image into the text. Typically, this is a button used in explaining controls.
  • <col> changes the text to a color in RGBA format.
  • <NUM> represents a number of coins.
  • <ITEM> represents an item name.
  • <s> has an unknown use.
  • <AN> represents either "a" or "an" depending on which is appropriate grammatically.
  • <system> renders the text box in blue and plays a short tone.
  • <o> has an unknown use.
  • <dkey> has an unknown use.
  • <shake> causes the letters of the text to move erratically.
  • <housou> creates a "mechanical" text box.
  • <tec> creates the text box used by TEC-XX
  • <diary> creates a "ripped paper" text box.
  • <scale> changes the font size.
  • <wpos> has an unknown use.
  • <S> represents either nothing or the letter s, depending on which is appropriate grammatically.
  • <small> creates a small text box.
  • <select> creates a list of choices.
  • <keyxon> allows the text box to be advanced with (x).
  • <kanban> creates a wooden sign background.
  • <speed> controls the speed with which individual letters appear on the screen.
  • <boss> creates the special text box used by Hooktail.
  • <se> has an unknown use.
  • <majo> creates the text box used by the Shadow Queen.
  • <anim> has an unknown use.
  • <!> is a comment. [?]
  • <plate> creates the text box used by the Rogueport notice board.
  • <pos> positions the text at a specified location in the text box
  • <AN_ITEM> combines <AN> with <ITEM>

Enemy Names (global)

Generally, if an enemy is encountered multiple times with different stats, they will have multiple entries in the enemy name table. Since Beldam and Marlyn each have four entries, (not listed below) and Vivian has 2, it can be inferred that the Shadow Sirens were intended to be fought four times (twice before Vivian defects to Mario's team) at one stage of development.

So, Hooktail Castle, huh?

Well...<wait 250> It sure is ominous,

use the jump platform to go

The space in the word はい (yes) may simply be to make it and いいえ (no) take up the same amount of space. This has the opposite effect when translated, obviously.

jon_00 Who dares approach me? This is Hooktail's dialog, but it appears in the room where Bonetail is found. The reason for this is unknown.

Hmm...<wait 250> So...you are friends

I didn't expect more to come
to steal the stone I protect...
Such rashness...

jon_02

That was foolish, I fear.

Do you really think you
can beat me?

jon_03

But you're so small. And you
don't appear tasty. I suppose
you might make a good snack.

And the bottoms of your feet
smell like they might make a
good sauce with some spices.

What I'll do is saute you
to crispy goodness and gobble
you down...HEADFIRST!

Items[edit]

Name of Item Icon Effect/Description Item Hex
Trade Off Trade Off TTYD unused.png When used in battle, enemies will give more star points than usual. 0091
Invalid Item Invalid Item TTYD unused.png Appears to be a poster of Mario. The graphic is used as a reference image of Mario by Shadow Sirens in Chapter 2. 005A
Koopa Curse Unused icon for "Koopa Curse" in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. When used in battle, Mario can give one enemy the Slow status. 00B2

Badges[edit]

Name of Badge Icon BP Needed Effect/Description Item Hex
All or Nothing P Sprite of the unused All or Nothing P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 4 Hit action commands, up ally's attack. Fail, it goes to 0.
Works as expected, similarly to Mario's All or Nothing, but for his partner.
0109
FP Drain P Sprite of the unused FP Drain P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 1 Drops ally's attack by 1, but gain 1 FP per attack.
Works as expected, similarly to Mario's FP Drain, but for his partner.
012A
Happy Flower P Sprite of the unused Happy Flower P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. N/A Would have likely allowed Mario's partner to occasionally restore 1 FP. (Most likely unused due to the fact that allies do not have separate FP) N/A
Lucky Day P Sprite of the unused Lucky Day P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 7 When the ally's attacked, make foes miss more often. 0130
Mega Jump Sprite of the unused Mega Jump badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 3 Allows Mario to perform a more powerful jump attack that costs 6 FP. Having two or more of these takes up more FP, but increases damage in return. 014C
Mega Quake Sprite of the unused Mega Quake badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 4 Allows Mario to perform a more powerful hammer attack that costs 7 FP. Having two or more of these takes up more FP, but increases damage in return. 014E
Mega Smash Sprite of the unused Mega Smash badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 1 Allows Mario to perform a more powerful hammer attack that costs 6 FP. Having two or more of these takes up more FP, but increases damage in return. 014D
Pity Flower P Sprite of the unused Pity Flower P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 3 When Mario's ally is attacked, it will occasionally recover 1 FP. 0133
Triple Dip Sprite of the unused Triple Dip badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 6 Allows Mario to use three items in one turn. "Triple Dip" and this icon are shown in battle under the Items menu if both Double Dip badges are worn. The BP cost is the same as equipping two Double Dip badges, but equipping Triple Dip only enables Triple Dip. 0149
Triple Dip P Sprite of the unused Triple Dip P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. N/A Would have likely allowed Mario's partner to use up to three items in one turn. "Triple Dip P" and this icon are shown in battle under the Items menu if both Double Dip P badges are worn. The BP cost is the same as equipping two Double Dip P badges, but equipping Triple Dip P only enables Triple Dip P. N/A
Invalid Item Sprite of the unused Invalid Item badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 2 Likely an early version of the Defend command that would have required a badge to use. 014F
Invalid Item Sprite of the unused Invalid Item P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 2 Likely an early version of the Defend command for partners that would have required a badge to use. 0150
Super Charge Sprite of the unused Super Charge badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 2 A recolored version of the Charge badge. Enables a "Super Charge" option in the Tactics menu, costing 2 FP to charge Mario's next attack by 2, making it a more expensive Charge badge for no extra benefit. This badge can be stacked, with additional copies increasing the charge power by 2, compared to additional Charge badges only increasing the charge power by 1. 0151
Super Charge P Sprite of the unused Super Charge P badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 2 A recolored version of the Charge P badge. Enables a "Super Charge" option in the Tactics menu, costing 2 FP to charge the partner's next attack by 2, making it a more expensive Charge P badge for no extra benefit. This badge can be stacked, with additional copies increasing the charge power by 2, compared to additional Charge P badges only increasing the charge power by 1. 0152
Debug Badge Sprite of the Zap Tap badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 1 Uses the Zap Tap badge icon. It makes Mario and his partner Superguard every time an enemy attacks and automatically activates all action commands and stylish moves, except for the special moves. It also makes the runaway meter full for Mario and partner. If Mario uses Power Bounce (or Goombella uses Multibonk), the move will continue until being forcibly capped (generally 5-10 bounces for bosses, or 9999 for normal enemies). 014B
Lucky Start P Sprite of the Lucky Start badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. 2 Looks exactly like the Lucky Start Badge. Intended to be "Lucky Start P", as when equipped it functions as Lucky Start for Mario's partner. Equipping both Lucky Start and this badge has the strange effect of not always granting Mario's partner a status effect. May be evidence that Lucky Start was originally going to cost 2 BP, as most partner versions of badges have the same BP cost as Mario's badges. 014A
Unknown Sprite of an unnamed, unused badge in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. N/A Possibly early Ice Power or Ice Smash. N/A
