Interactive Multi Game Demo Disc 27 has an early version of Mario Superstar Baseball, only called "Mario Baseball", and it pre-dates the final game by seven months. The demo disc was released on January 1, 2005, and the final game was released in Japan on July 21, 2005.



Unfortunately, the entire game is in a file called "ZZZZ.dat" and I can't open it. Same with the final. I'm sure there's plenty of unused content and stuff that isn't in the final game. There's gotta be a way to get it all out.

I started a page for it:

Probably a dumb idea, but did you try opening ZZZZ.dat in a hex editor? There's got to be some kind of header we can use to figure it out, or at least text.

Now that I think about it, I recall another game (was it Strikers?) also had a ZZZZ file or something similar.

Nobody will download that as it's forcing users to install an adware downloader to get the file.

Try mediafire or dropbox in future.

I don't want to check it at the moment since I'm at work, but if it's the site I'm thinking of, there's some huge shitty DOWNLOAD NOW!!! banner ad at the top of the page designed to distract you from the much smaller actual download link somewhere further down the page.

Anyway, I can check it out when I get home later today and see what I can glean from it.

I have no clue what I was thinking picking that site. I guess I just forgot about MediaFire.

Unfortunately, I don't recognize the header at all, so I don't know if it's even compressed or not. At 150 MB, it is certainly big enough to be uncompressed, but who knows. I couldn't find any text in it, but I do spy what looks like image data neat the end of the file, starting around 0x92ECA30. There is definitely something there, but none of the tools I have are capable of extracting it.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
