File talk:Unused Super Mario World Sprites.gif

It should be noted that some of these may just be normal sprites on an alternate pallete (The mushroom, the big boo, and the spikefish for example) but the leaf and a couple other sprites appear genuinely unused. GreenKoopa - Comments or questions?

Actually, this file name's a bit misleading. These sprites aren't from Super Mario World, they're from the SNES Test ROM, which contained an incomplete image of SMW for testing purposes. As for the sprites you mentioned, they're different than the ones in the final game in terms of resolution, and the Boo in SMW isn't normally stored as a single image, but in parts. Also, this isn't the complete set of graphics from that ROM. The complete set is more interesting because it's stored in the same format as the final SMW graphics, but with different things in different positions. So you can actually go back and look at the SMW ROM and see how some unused behaviors correspond with some unused graphics. - 2257(Talk) 09:29, 5 March 2009 (EST)

Ahh. That explains a lot. I had them on my userpage, very large size. It looked fake. YourBuddyBill
