Jingle Brawl
subdirectory_arrow_right Planet Sheen (Franchise)
3
In Super Fall Brawl, one of the many reskins of Jingle Brawl, the new character was intended to be Sheen Estevez from Jimmy Neutron, in promotion for his then-new spin-off series Planet Sheen. However, Sheen was not coded correctly, making him near-impossible to beat in a fight. The game's second update would remove Sheen and his stage completely, and he would never be added back in, making Fall Brawl the only Super Brawl game without any new combatants. Sheen would return in Super Brawl 2, though the House of Pain stage, based on the first episode of Planet Sheen, would be swapped for a Zeenu stage generally based on Planet Sheen instead of a single episode.
Code Vein
2
Attachment In a pre-release gameplay video from 2018, at the end of a tour of the Home Base, a lit sign featuring the logo for the pizza restaurant chain Domino's can be seen hanging on a wall near the refrigerator. This sign would be removed in the final game, but within the game's files are several voice lines spoken by the game's main cast (Coco, Davis, Eva, Io, Jack, Louis, Mia, Rin and Yakumo) talking about eating freshly delivered pizza in an unusually glorifying manner without mentioning the company by name. It's unclear how these voice clips would have been used in the game, but when taken with the unused Domino's sign, it's believed that this was all part of a planned promotional tie-in that fell through when the game was delayed to 2019, where Domino's would have somehow survived the apocalypse in the game's story and adapted to the Revenants and the Lost.

Yakuza 3
2
Yakuza 3 features an unused remix of a song called “Bruise” in the game files, originally intended to be used in tag battles in the Coliseum. This song would later be used in-game in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name in 2023.
Mario Forever
2
Attachment Mario Forever, between versions 3.5 and 4.4, used an audio track that was a "fart version" of the Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island castle theme as the Hardcore World 1-4 music. Prior to its addition, some versions of the game had an unused version of the fart castle theme with Luigi impressions by developer Michał Gdaniec non-melodically interspersed.
Bob the Builder: Can We Fix It?
2
Inside the files of the Windows version of Bob the Builder: Can We Fix It?, there are 3 unusual unused sound clips

•The Windows 95 startup sound
•A clip of the line "Greetings, Professor Falken" from WarGames
•An otherwise-innocuous unused take of Wendy calling Pilchard for dinner with the filename "Torture".
Sonic and the Secret Rings
2
An unused voice clip has Sonic wishing the player happy birthday based on the Wii's birthday data.
SkiFree
2
Attachment A "2.0" version of SkiFree was in development in 1993, which would've had online multiplayer; improved physics; AI opponents; and sound, however the physics ended up being corrupted and the source code was lost, so it could not be finished. SkiFree creator Chris Pirih's website has voice clips of the game's sasquatch that may have originated from this version.
Imagine: Babies 3D
2
Attachment The 3DS version of Imagine Babyz has unused content pertaining to what seems to be an unreleased 2D shoot 'em up titled Sound Rider. There is a title screen, multiple ship and bullet sprites, and two MOD tracker-styled songs.
Mr. Gimmick
subdirectory_arrow_right Gimmick: Exact Mix (Game)
2
Attachment The original release of the game in both Japan and Scandinavia contains a track in the sound test called "Strange Memories of Death". This song is not featured anywhere else in the game, implying that whatever purpose it was written for was discarded during development. The arcade remake, Gimmick! EXACT☆MIX, would finally incorporate the song for the new continue screen.

Neopets Browser
subdirectory_arrow_right Pepsi (Collection)
2
Attachment In the files of the Neopets promotional game Pepsi Surf Football, you can find a shortened audio clip from a trailer for the film Lilo & Stitch, featuring a narrator saying "His name is Stitch" with "Back in Black" by AC/DC playing in the background.
Daffy Duck in Hollywood
2
The Genesis version of the game was originally planned to use a rendition of Richard A. Whiting's "Hooray for Hollywood" arranged by the game's composer Matt Furniss instead of the story theme found in the final game. The song was most likely cut due to licensing issues.
Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time
2
In the game's files, an animatic for a scrapped minigame based on the biblical story of Noah's Ark exists. Two Rabbids are sent to the setting of the book of Genesis, falling into a raincloud that turns dark from their fighting, triggering the flood and then launching each one into two separate arks, with one housing dinosaurs. It is unknown why this minigame was scrapped, but it was likely to avoid controversy due to the sacrilegious nature of the animatic.
Silent Hill 3
2
Attachment During development the player could hear the sound of a crying baby Spoiler:on the third floor of the Hilltop Center., although it was removed in the final release.
The HD re-release includes a similar sound when Spoiler:Heather meets Claudia for the first time.

Donkey Kong
2
There are five unused audio files within the game, An alternate Pauline theme, two unused pieces for cutscenes, and two voice samples of what appears to be Pauline saying "Thanks" and "Help". These sounds weren't discovered until 33 years after the game's release.
LEGO Island
2
There are two unused sound files on the game's disc. One is the Infomaniac saying to put the disc back into your computer, as if you had ejected it. This sound is never played, as the game will crash when ejecting the CD. The second one is the Infomaniac warning you about entering a duplicate username, which in the final game will result in just using the already existing user, instead of overwriting it as suggested by the audio clip.
Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis
1
Attachment In an interview with the developers at Blue Tongue, they mentioned several buildings they wanted to include in this game, but had to drop due to design decisions or memory constraints on home consoles:

•Hotels, which would provide extra accommodation for guests.
•Dino-Vet Station, which would have been vital for keeping dinosaurs healthy.
•Hunting Platforms, which would let visitors hunt down carnivores in the park from afar.

The Dino-Vet Station can be found in earlier promotional material for Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis and also within its game files. Likewise with the Hunting Platform, which also still has Audio, Ini and even Rig Files within the game.

Nicktoons Unite!
1
Attachment Within the game's data are unused voice clips for a solo boss fight against Professor Calamitous, who in the released game only appears during the final battle against the full Syndicate. Some of these clips feature Calamitous threatening to destroy Retroville with a doomsday device, a subplot not present in the final game. This implies that Jimmy Neutron's route was originally going to follow the same formula as Danny Phantom, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Timmy Turner's routes, in which the team visits an individual character's world and foils a villainous scheme by an individual member of the Syndicate there. This is corroborated by a pre-release screenshot in which the monochrome Retroville simulation seen in "Fantastic Voyage of Goddard" is instead in full color.

Arcaea
subdirectory_arrow_right Sound Voltex III: Gravity Wars (Game)
1
The song "Red and Blue" was originally composed by Silentroom, then known under the alias "Polycube" for Sound Voltex III: Gravity War's "The First VOLTEX Character Theme Song Contest" in 2014. However, the song was unable to be submitted due to missing the deadline. It was later added and repurposed for Arcaea in the 1.5.0 update.

Lemmings
subdirectory_arrow_right Scooby-Doo (Franchise)
1
Attachment Lemmings was originally going to use a soundtrack of plagarised copyrighted music, something that was common in microcomputer games the decade prior, including pop songs and television theme songs. In the final game, these were swapped for public domain songs, though a sample of Don Messick as Scooby-Doo used for a cover of the Scooby-Doo & Scrappy-Doo theme song would be retained in the How Much is that Doggie in the Window? music track. The Mission: Impossible theme seems to have been chosen in reference to a fad on British television at the time of showing squirrels performing stunts to the song.
