'''World 2''' in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' was a desert, just as [[Desert Land]] was. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] crossed this hot desert on their adventure. This is the second time [[Bowser Jr.]] was fought in the game.
Beta elements get their name from the period at the end of a game's development known as ''Beta Testing,'' when the nearly complete build of the game is debugged and playtested by a small group of people. Despite this, most games are complete or nearly complete when beta testing takes place, so most beta elements are scrapped long before this period.


[[Mummipokey]] was located at the end of the desert. If Mario or Luigi defeated him they would go to [[World 3 (NSMB)|World 3]] however if [[Mini Mario]] or Mini Luigi defeated him they would go to [[World 4 (NSMB)|World 4]].  
Beta Elements should not be confused with [[Vaporware]], entire games which never see release.

'''World 2-1''' is the first [[level]] of the second [[world]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''.  


The level starts out with four [[? Blocks]]; in the second one, a power-up can be found. A [[Pokey]] will appear as the first enemy of the level. Above the Pokey resides four [[coin]]s. After a few steps, a [[Spiny]] is encountered; near it are three [[Brick Block]]s and a second Pokey. After a few more steps, the first [[Star Coin]] can be found, along with a third Pokey. After some more trekking, the [[player]] will encounter a cluster of three Pokeys &ndash; each on or near a floating platform. The second Star Coin can be found by both a bank of quicksand and another Pokey. After the player passes the second Star Coin, he or she will encounter an [[abyss]] that hosts a Pokey and a few more floating platforms. Once the abyss is passed, the [[Midway Point]] will be activated. Past this point, three brick blocks and one ? Block is seen. As the player presses forth, he or she will encounter four abysses, each hosting one Pokey. In the fourth abyss resides the final Star Coin in the level. At the end of this abyss, there is a mini-[[pipe]] which can only be accessed via the use of a [[Mini Mushroom]]. After this, yet another abyss is found; within it are a few floating platforms and a Pokey. Past here, the player must enter a pipe to continue in the level.

On the other end of the pipe, there is a cluster of blocks; in the middle block resides a [[P-Switch]]. By activating the P-Switch, the small bridge of coins ahead, (located above the final Pokey in the level), will turn into brick blocks. If the player runs across the bridge of brick blocks, he or she can jump to the [[Flagpole]]. Once the flagpole has been touched, the level ends.

'''World 2-2''' is the second [[level]] of [[World 2 (NSMB)|World 2]] in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''.
 
The level starts out with three orange platforms, each hosting a [[Koopa]]. Underneath the second platform resides a [[? Block]] containing a power-up. After the first [[abyss]], the [[player]] will encounter a [[Lakitu]]. The player will find several [[coin]]s and blocks by here. Past here, two more small abysses can be found, followed by a cage of blocks containing a few coins. Another Lakitu will appear by this point. Once again, three orange platforms hosting Koopas are found, followed by a [[pipe]] within an abyss. To the right of this pipe is a [[Star Coin]] hidden underneath a small mass of land. A red pipe can then be found, along with several Bricks and ? Blocks. Located high above this cluster of blocks reside several coins &ndash; they are only accessible via the use of a Lakitu Cloud. By this cluster of blocks is the checkpoint. Another Lakitu can be found, along with several blocks and two pipes. By entering the green pipe, the player will be rocketed up to a type of [[Coin Heaven]]. Whether or not the player enters the coin heaven, he or she will have to run across tilting platforms that lead to the [[flagpole]]. Once the flagpole is touched, the level ends.

Beta element

A screenshot of an unused copy of #6 Wendy's Castle from Super Mario World above a screenshot from the same area in the final game. For use on the pre-release and unused content page.
A room in a beta version of Super Mario World's Wendy's castle (top), and the same room as it appears in the final game (bottom).

Beta elements are components of a video game that, for whatever reason, are removed or altered before that game is released. Known info about beta elements usually comes from one of two sources. The first is information released about a game, by its creators, before the game is complete. The second is data found within the coding of a game that serves no purpose, but could have been implemented into the game at one point.

Beta elements get their name from the period at the end of a game's development known as Beta Testing, when the nearly complete build of the game is debugged and playtested by a small group of people. Despite this, most games are complete or nearly complete when beta testing takes place, so most beta elements are scrapped long before this period.

Beta Elements should not be confused with Vaporware, entire games which never see release.
