Later, in late July of 2020, the source code for many prototypes of [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Nintendo]] games were dumped online, and includes many concepts and sprites showing various entities in different stages of creation, some of which go entirely unused. These include an elderly blue Yoshi, early versions of the Koopalings that would've shared a unified attack pattern much like in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' while being based particularly on [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]]'s battle in the final release, an early version of [[Cape Mario]] with a red cape and a helmet, a shorter [[Torpedo Ted]] that would've been the same size as a Bullet Bill, a cannon enemy that would've predated the [[Kaboomba]] enemies from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', earlier iterations of Blargg that included a shark and a water-dwelling dinosaur, a gigantic Banzai Bill that would've predated the King Bill enemies from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', a crocodilian [[Koopa Troopa]] that would've been distinguishable from previous enemies similar to the game's [[Galoomba|Goomba]]s, clearly unfinished [[Parabeetle]]s, shark enemies that were replaced by the [[Dolphin]]s (with them bearing a vague resemblance to, and predating, [[Guppy]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', clearer versions of the above sprite documents, a scrapped [[Big Buzzy Beetle]] that would've predated its appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' by 22 years, a [[Toad]]-like flower character that would've predated the [[Poplin]]s by 33 years, [[Bowser]] being outside of his [[Koopa Clown Car]], a dummy of Peach resembling the dummies in the fights agains [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]] and [[Wendy O. Koopa|Wendy]], an exaggerated sprite of Peach screaming, a text balloon meant for the [[Sumo Bro]] enemies whenever they stomped, an unfinished dinosaur-like enemy, a yellow nest-like object that would've been used in the scrapped intro that features the "No Yoshi" sign for [[Yoshi]] to rest on, sprites of Lemmy that include one of him using a fan with the pattern of the Japanese flag on it, an early design for [[Larry Koopa|Larry]], a [[Bonus Block]] with a [[1-Up Mushroom]] emblazoned on it rather than the final game's star, sprites of [[Wing Mario]] predating his appearance in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' by six years, [[Mechakoopa]]s with white hair, [[Pokey]]s resembling how they looked in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', an early green [[Wiggler]] with a relaxed facial expression and spikes on its back as well as a party hat rather than the final game's flower, [[Rocky Wrench]]es making their return prior to the first ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', an early [[Lakitu]] with a smaller cloud similar to previous games, a creature resembling a [[Micro Goomba]], four [[Airship]]-esque vehicles, a tube-like cannon that fires [[Green Shell|Koopa Shell]]s, sprites of the Mario Brothers based on their ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' sprites, a background portrait of presumably either Larry or Ludwig meant for [[Ghost House]]s, a cut [[Venus Fire Trap]] enemy (with one variant having eyes), a bottom part of the [[Goal Gate]] that was cut and replaced by graphics for the background bushes, a [[P-Switch]]-like button that would've functioned similar to the final game's [[ON/OFF Switch]]es, a strange bird-like creature, a scrapped [[Piranhacus Giganticus]] whose design would've predated the ones from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'''s [[Mario Raceway]], and bizarrely, two sets of sprites that replace Mario with Kawasuo-kun from ''[[wikipedia:Utsurun Desu|Utsurun Desu]]'', one of which depicts him naked from the neck down with his privates visible. Another oddity revolves around sprites of [[Luigi]] as he would later appear in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World]]'', with one of his sprites (possibly meant for completing a level) supposedly breaking the fourth wall by giving the player the middle finger.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Development:Super_Mario_World_(SNES)/Sprites A list of never-before-seen sprites for Super Mario World] ''The Cutting Room Floor''.
