The SNES versions of Beethoven: The Ultimate Canine Caper! and Tom & Jerry both contain a dummy text file from the SNES version of The Hunt for Red October.

IN NOVEMBER OF 1984, SHORTLY BEFORE GORBACHEV CAME TO POWER,
A TYPHOON- CLASS SOVIET SUB SURFACED JUST SOUTH OF THE GRAND BANKS.
IT THEN SANK IN DEEP WATER, APPARENTLY SUFFERING A RADIATION PROBLEM.
UNCONFIRMED REPORTS INDICATED SOME OF THE CREW WERE RESCUED.
BUT ACCORDING TO REPEATED STATEMENTS BY BOTH SOVIET AND AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS,
NOTHING OF WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE... ...EVER HAPPENED.

Crazy Cheebo: Puzzle Party was originally intended as a game starring the cult ringtone mascot The Annoying Thing/Crazy Frog titled Crazy Frog Collectables: Faces, following the naming scheme of Crazy Frog Collectables: Art School. However, the bankruptcy of publisher Mercury Games resulted in the game being shelved, with developer Cypronia stepping in to publish the games themselves with an original Crazy Frog-inspired character in place of the license. A leftover menu icon for the Crazy Frog revision of the game can be found in the files.

Attachment The layout of the Traffic Jam stage in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, consisting of a bus driving along moving asphalt that players can fall onto and either ram into the bus or get conveyed off-screen, while cars appear to the left and right to stand on, is recycled from a stage from Ludosity's first platform fighter Slap City called Public Transit, with the main difference aside from the Hey Arnold! theming being the absence of an equivalent to the Apathetic Frog helicopter.

The background music for the Slap City stage is also called "Traffic Jam" on the game's song selector (though the official Bandcamp release and the internal file names call the song "Noisy City" instead) and a side-scrolling stage reusing assets from Public Transit in Slap City's story mode is called "Traffic Jam".

Attachment In Sports mode, the Arnold football has an indicator above it to inform players that it must be grabbed and not hit. This graphic, however, is a crude placeholder graphic that appears to have slipped into the final game.

Attachment EA had originally planned to add Gollum as a playable character. This ultimately did not come to fruition for the PC version and almost every console version of the game, but he was added to the GBA version of the game.

One leftover detail indicating his planned playability is an in-game results screen template with Gollum's face faded in the background, which is located in the Cheat Codes menu of the game. Every playable character in the game has a screen like this, with Gollum being the only non-playable character to have one.

Attachment Although Mario & Wario was released only in Japan, the game is entirely in English; a US release was planned, complete with box art, yet never materialized.

Of note is that the scrapped English box art features a logo identical to the one seen on the title screen, and that the game itself contains unused graphics for a Japanese version of the title screen with a logo identical to that seen on the Japanese box art. Combining this with the fact that Nintendo games' title logos rarely deviate from the box art (and vice-versa), this implies that the final game is actually based on an English prototype which was shipped to Japanese retailers by mistake.
