Attachment There is a variety of unused data in the games code. Some of which was featured in later remakes. The unused content includes art assets, text that suggests a World Ranking system was in the works, extra tutorials, and added Chao World features. Unused content present in later versions include the Black Market and unused themes (Shadow, Amy, Omochao, Maria and the Secretary).

Attachment Before destroying the support pillars and causing the fourth floor to collapse onto the third, the four rooms in the center of Eagle's Tower's third floor are entirely different, consisting primarily of an extremely large pit. Of these rooms, the upper two are inaccessible and never normally seen in-game. It appears the one on the left was meant to be used, but due to the way the crystal switches work, the blocks controlled by them will always deny you entry. And even if it was accessible, the pit is too open and can easily lead to getting trapped on the second floor. Interestingly, while the room is inaccessible, it was still updated after the first version.

To the right of that room is one that was definitely never intended to be used at all, consisting only of a "down" staircase leading up to the fourth floor, presumably for testing purposes. It's also the only way to get up there. (Leaving the 4F area in any direction will take you to blank "default" rooms.)

These rooms are also present in the DX version.

Attachment When Sonic CD was being remade using Christian Whitehead's self-made engine, he wanted to include a new level called "Desert Dazzle". However, SEGA thought it was a bad idea to deviate from the original project. You can actually find a concept image with Christian's initials on it in the sound test by entering PCM:32|DA:8

It appears that originally the player could recruit Thane, Tali, Samara or Legion a lot earlier in the game; possibly directly after the prologue like Miranda and Jacob. By using an editor tool to unlock them from the beginning of the game, players will discover that the four have extensive dialogue for virtually every mission in the game, including missions which must be complete before their official recruitment missions. Furthermore, there are some unique scenes should the player bring Legion in particular along onto certain missions, such as characters commenting on his presence.

Legion's presence also triggers an exclusive Paragon Interrupt during Tali's recruitment mission. Upon meeting Tali, she will notice Legion and immediately draw her gun, triggering a Paragon Interrupt prompt. If the player doesn't press it, she will open fire at Legion who will run for cover.

Attachment There are two unused items in the game's code. The first being a brownish orb which is named "?". Its animation is that of a curing item, but has no visible effects.

The second item is called "Ruby Armet". It is only equippable by Purim (the girl), and offers 46 magic defense and defense. The official Secret of Mana Guidebook still lists it as an available item, even giving it a price and concept art. It also includes this description:

重みを肩で支えることができる構造になっているため,力がなくても動きやすい中量級へルム。また中央にあしらわれた真紅のルビーは,炎のダメ一ジを軽減する効果をもっている。

Which translated says:

This is a midclass helm that does not take energy to move in easily because the structure is such that the weight is supported by the shoulders. Also, with the deep red ruby in its center, it reduces the effectiveness of flame damage attacks.
