Aeris, after being brought back via a cheat device, has dialogue in discs 2 and 3. This seems to imply that either Spoiler:she was not meant to die at the end of disc 1 or that Spoiler:she was intended to be revived later in the game.

In the audit menu of the arcade version, there is a useless row of text that says "ERMACS" (which stands for Error Macros) and is listed under "Reptile Battles." Because of this, players thought that Ermac was a hidden boss like Reptile. Ermac became a running joke for the developers, so much so that they even made him a real character for Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, with his BIO saying he was hiding in the first Mortal Kombat.

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.

By using Gameshark codes, you can activate cutscenes that were originally going to be in the game. One is an early version of the prologue cutscene which takes place at sunset rather than night and three other cutscenes that take place in the Temple of Time, in which each cutscene focuses on each Spiritual Stone.

Attachment An unused villager, fan-dubbed Blazel, can be found in the game's code. The villager's name is a series of glitched characters, and has characteristics similar to Bliss and Hazel. Talking to the villager a second time changes its name to Jambette, possibly due to memory errors. An odd quirk is that it's loaded in the memory with other non-villager NPCS.

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.

Duke was originally going to have a sidekick in the form of a gay robot. This wasn't to make fun of gay people, but to add depth to Duke's character. The idea was scrapped during development because the robot had a tragic ending, and the developers felt that Duke was more about action than tragedy.

"'Sexuality is part of the Duke personality.' The head of Gearbox explained that the original idea behind the sidekick was 'to explore how Duke would relate to a peer that might have a different sexual orientation.'"

"Ultimately the robot was in a situation where for in order for victory against the aliens to be accomplished, the robot's inner workings - a nuclear generator - had to be sacrificed."

"Duke is all about having a good time. Do you want to pay $60 to feel like crap? No!"

Attachment Due to LucasArts rushing the game's development to release it on time for the holidays, a large number of content and story was either cut or unfinished with numerous bugs remaining in the game. M4-78, a planet inhabited by droids, was one of the worlds originally intended to be visitable by the player where they'd find one of the Jedi Masters and her apprentice.

In the files for the Pokemon World Tournament, there are two complete text strings for Hilbert and Hilda, the player characters of Black and White. This suggests that they were originally going to be present in an unidentified tournament, and they were also going to speak in full sentences, unlike Red who just speaks in ellipses. Their names are set as Hilbert and Hilda, unlike the Memory Link referencing your past character.
