Attachment Early in development, there was going to be an enemy named "Tramplin' Stu", another iteration of Stu in the game. The Tramplin' Stu was supposed to spawn Swoopin' and Strollin' Stu behind it as it walked. To defeat a Tramplin' Stu, you must fill it with water so that the outer shell pops, then you stomp on the eye on top of it. The data for Tramplin' Stu can be found in a test map where it shows up correctly, but without its shell. Tramplin' Stu shows up correctly with its shell when moved to the Delfino plaza map.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3

By using a Game Genie on the Genesis, the player can use Chameleon. He is clearly unfinished as he has no combos, special moves, or fatalities, uses Scorpion's sprites (with the sprite changing to Rain's when a decapitation fatality was performed on him), and the announcer does not say his name. This hints that he was planned to be put in the game before he was debuted in Mortal Kombat Trilogy.

Croc: Legend of the Gobbos
1
The game started out as a prototype for a new 3D Mario game in which the player played as Yoshi.

"The end came when we pitched to do a 3D platform game, the likes of which had never been done before. We mocked up a prototype using Yoshi. It was essentially the world's first 3D platform game and was obviously a big risk. [...] Nintendo had never let an outside company use their characters before, and weren't about to, either. This is the moment the deal fell apart. We later made that game into Croc: Legend of the Gobbos for the PlayStation, Saturn and PC, which became our biggest ever game in terms of sales and also in royalties, since we owned the IP."
