Asheron's Call
1
Attachment A Police Box would randomly appear throughout random locations of Dereth, a reference to the TARDIS from the science fiction series "Doctor Who". However after the release of the second expansion pack "Throne of Destiny", it was removed from the game due to "various reasons" according to the developers.
Ristar
1
Attachment The character of Ristar started out as an early concept for Sonic the Hedgehog. The character was going to be a rabbit that could grab the environment and enemies with his ears. As the game play got faster and faster, the character was shelved and replaced with Sonic. The character was later picked up to be in a game called "Feel" before being changed into a shooting star and both the game and the character's name were changed to Ristar.

Earthworm Jim 3D
1
Evil the Cat was slated to appear as the boss of the "Fear" level world but was cut and replaced with Professor Monkey-For-A-Head. Despite this, his image appears on records in "Boogie Nights of the Living Dead" and is even advertised on a few of the game boxes. Additionally, Evil Jim, Earthworm Jim's evil twin from the TV series, was also reportedly a part of the game before being cut.
ClayFighter 63 1/3
1
Attachment There was originally going to be one more character which went by the name 'Hobo Cop' (a pun on the movie RoboCop) who was decorated with pots and trash can lids. For one reason or another, the character was dropped.
Sonic Mega Collection
1
There are unused movie files in the game. The names of the files are: sample.sfd, loopbgv.sfd and smpinter.sfd. These were made to show off CRI's Sofdec video compression capabilities and are not related to the Sonic series.
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
1
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.
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
1
Attachment The Binary on the signs on Planet Notak spell Dan and are homage to Dan Johnson.
Grand Theft Auto III
1
There are strings of unused text that say:
"Get outta here! You're perfectly healthy."
"Healthcare costs."
"I'll just fix you up."
"That will be $250."
This possibly suggests that hospitals at one point may've been enterable to get healed.
Super Mario Sunshine
1
Attachment Some have speculated that human NPCs were to be in the game. This is because a human girl can be seen in the Space World 2001 trailer, but only for a fraction of a second.
Franchise: Mario
1
Attachment Luigi's name comes from a pun on the Japanese word ルイージ¸ or ruiji meaning "similar." Since all of his sprites in earlier games were just recolors of his brother's sprites, and his name was Italian like Mario's was, it seemed to fit him.
Halo 3
1
Attachment In the level "The Covenant" on Normal or higher difficulty, the Windows voice program "Microsoft Sam" can be found commenting on the game and it's developers on the right ledge of the Citadel, whilst on the left ledge can be heard the song "Siege of Madrigal" from Bungie's previous game 'Myth'.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
1
It was originally planned for the Great Fairy to be blue and white. The beta model can be found in the game's data.
Super Mario World
1
The game originally had a flying cage carried by four winged creatures. Mario would start already in the cage and with an autoscroll script, the cage would move along the level. Although the cage can be found in the code, the graphics for it are incomplete. The cage is likely left over from the 'SNES Test Program'.
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
1
The final level was going to have a Clank traversal segment to help Ratchet go further into the level, and would reintroduce the lifter bot for a few more puzzles. However due to memory restraints and time, the segment was scraped and the lifter bot was reduced to an only one time use in the first Clank segment.
Grand Theft Auto IV
1
Attachment Niko Bellic, one of the game's protagonists, was based on the character Sasha from the 2001 film "Behind Enemy Lines" played by Vladimir Mashkov. Mashkov was even asked by Rockstar if he'd like to play Niko Bellic but, declined the offer.
Super Mario 64
1
Attachment There is an unused animated Yoshi egg texture in the game's data, suggesting that Yoshi was going to play a bigger role in the game, similar to Super Mario World.
Doom
1
In 1995, it was estimated that Doom was installed on to more computers than Microsoft's own Windows 95. This led Bill Gates to briefly consider buying id Software, so they could have the rights to the Doom name. This also led to the development of a Windows 95 port of the game to promote the operating system as a gaming platform.
EarthBound
1
Attachment Early previews of EarthBound show that the game's localizers had considered calling Giygas "The Geek".
