As shown in published screenshots, an early build retained the original game's HUD, which was altered in the final to fit in better with the GBA's screen resolution.<ref>[http://randomhoohaas.flyingomelette.com/ai/omgwtct/#sma2 Source]</ref> Even the original test levels were left in the game; they can be accessed via a [[#Glitches|glitch]].
The game was produced by ''Super Mario'' creator [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], and directed by Hiroyuki Kimura with supervision from original SNES directors [[Takashi Tezuka]] and Toshihiko Nakago. The new graphics were designed by Emi Tomita, and the new audio cues were composed by Yasushi Ida and Taiju Suzuki. This was the last entry in the ''Super Mario'' franchise to be produced under [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]]'s administration as president of Nintendo.
