Sonic the Hedgehog
1
There is an unused multicolored gem in the game's data called the Rainbow Gem. This gem would have let the character "go super" at any time they wanted. If it is hacked back into the game, the character would go through the Super transformations animations, but would be unable to turn into the Super mode.
EarthBound
1
Attachment In the issue of Weekly Famitsu published in 9th of September 1994, Itoi refers to the battle backgrounds as a "Video Relaxant." The Video Relaxant was going to be an in-game item and was originally referred to as a "Video Drug". It can still be found in the game's files. It has no function and the description of the item is "What the hey is this?"
Paper Mario
1
Attachment There was once an "Anger's Power" badge in the beta for Paper Mario. It would cause Mario to gain a dark red tinge of color, and pose angrily. Mario's turn would be controlled automatically in battles, while the partner is controlled by the player. Mario's attack would increase by 2, but is AI neglects common sense, such as jumping on top of spike enemies. The effect is very much similar to the common "Berserk" status of many RPGs.
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
1
Attachment Through the use of cheating devices in the Japanese version of the game, the player can obtain a version of the Kingdom Key D called "Light Seeker".
Donkey Kong 64
1
ASCII text for ICE KEY is present in the ROM. The Ice Key is one of the Stop 'n' Swop items in Banjo-Kazooie, so there may have been intended to be a connection between the two games.
Kirby's Return to Dream Land
1
Attachment There were originally going to be more Super Abilities. A Super Spark and Super Cutter were planned, but were cut for two reasons. The Super Spark data is completely overwritten with Ultra Sword files and the Super Cutter was cut due to it being to similar to Ultra Sword. The model and icon for the Super Cutter still remain on the game's disc.
Kingdom Hearts II
1
Attachment Through the use of a cheating device, 2 alternate versions of the Ultima Weapon can be found. These weapons are titled "Edge of Ultima" and "Detection Saber". In game they are given a glitched appearance and are only palette swaps of the original Ultima Weapon. They are also missing a menu picture, and instead a map is displayed.
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
1
Attachment In the game's data are unused graphics of weapons and icons. These are all from the series's fifth entry, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. The reason these are in the data is unknown, as they are never used in the game and would have no reason to be used.
Minecraft
1
Attachment The Leather chain armor is a sprite from Indev (an older test version of Minecraft's Survival mode) 0.31's items.png armor. It never made it to the release versions.
Half-Life 2: Episode One
1
Attachment There is an unused weapon with the file name of "#HL2_Hopwire". The weapon sucks up everything in its path into some sort of warp. It's not known how it would fit into the story, but it would probably have been used against Striders, based on some console codes that mention the weapon. It can only be accessed though console commands.
Digimon World
1
Gigadramon and MetalEtemon both have digivolving items, though neither the items nor the Digimon can be obtained without the use of a cheat code. Panjyamon can also be obtained with a cheat code, though no digivolving item exists for him.
Secret of Mana
1
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.
Minecraft
1
Attachment In Minecraft Pocket Edition, there's an unused camera. If hacked into the player's inventory, it can be used to take pictures.
Final Fantasy X
1
Cloud's Buster Sword was originally intended for use by Tidus but was removed before the game was released. It is still in the game's code, though, and using hacking tools, it can be obtained and used in the final version.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
1
It is possible that fire arrows were originally intended to be in Twilight Princess. Fire arrows can be found in the game's data. Though they can only be obtained with a cheat device and they do not function.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
subdirectory_arrow_right The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Game)
1
Attachment Twilight Princess is one of the few Zelda games that does not have a magic meter. As such, there is no need for Green Chu Jelly, which is an item used to refill magic in other Zelda games. However, in the Wii version, it is possible to obtain Green Chu Jelly through normal means. But it is only possible once, in the "Cave of Ordeals", room 19. Carefully kill all of the purple Chus and let a Blue Chu and and Yellow Chu merge. Kill it and then scoop up the remains with a bottle. Link will now be holding a bottle of Green Chu Jelly. It has no text, description or effect whatsoever. However, performing this trick in the GameCube version produces a Purple Chu instead.
Pokémon Gold Version
subdirectory_arrow_right Pokémon Silver Version (Game)
1
In the code for Gold & Silver, there are various pieces of unused dialogue that refer to an item called "Sweet Honey." This implies that the honey mechanic was planned for Generation II but scrapped to return later in Generation IV.
BS Zelda no Densetsu: Inishie no Sekiban
1
After collecting everything in the game, two item slots remain empty - the Magic Cape and Book of Mudora, while coded into the game and fill these slots when hacked into the player's inventory, cannot be obtained normally.

The Magic Cape works as usual (you become invisible and invincible at the cost of magic power), but the Book of Mudora does nothing; as it fills the last slot in the A-button portion of the status screen, you were likely supposed to find the Book and either use it yourself (as in ALTTP) or give it to Zelda.
Super Mario Sunshine
1
Attachment In Noki Bay, once inside the bottle in the Red Coins in a Bottle level, Mario should fall to the bottom of the bottle and then locate a small rock formation there. If Mario maneuvers into a small square opening towards the back right of the rock formation, he can find a small door inside the opening which is impossible to open. Therefore, the player must rotate the camera to see what is on the other side of the door. In doing so, Mario can see a brown book on the floor of the room behind the impassable door, though its purpose is unknown.

The book itself may be a reference (or vice versa) to the level's background music. In the Original soundtrack, the title of the level's theme is in fact "The Book in the Bottle". It's also been said that this mission was originally different, and that Mario would collect the book rather than 8 red coins.
