This is from the New Super Mario Bros. edition of the Nintendo Offical Magazine.

手塚:じつは今回のキャラクターは『スーパーマリオ64DS』で使われた3Dモデルを参考に使っています。ただ、2Dの背景と3Dのキャラクターをどのようにマッチさせるかは試行錯誤をくり返しました。

蔭山:例えば、木1本の表現にしてもリアルにドットで描くと手前にあるキャラとの比較でどうしても少しパサついた感じになってしまう。3Dのキャラクターが手前にいて、それに合う背景というのはドットらしいドットではなくて、もっと質感を大事にしたものじゃないかと。

I think it is the only interesting bit about the game development; judging from Google Translate.

Free Game Manuals has some that RetroMags doesn't.

Though you probably have magazines that neither websites have .

Super Mario 3D Land
Bullet Bill Eye Texture
enemy_xx01_Killer_dif

It turns out this texture is used, and not writing.

Undumped / For Sale (on ebay uk)
Not prototypes exactly, but possible prototypes on ebay:
Nintendo DS
* Mario Kart DS - Japanese Demo Cart (The US demo cart was a prototype, so...) {
* Mario vs. Donkey Kong - Mini-Land Mayhem: Demo Cart {TWL-V9AE-USA}
* Nintendogs + Cats: EU Demo Cart {LNZ-CTR-ADAP-EUR}


Not games, but certainly rare carts that may feature interesting unused things
Nintendo DS
* Dragon Quest IX: Video Loop
* Pokemon Dmnd/Perl/Plat/HrtGld/SolSilv Version - Legendary Distribution Only


Dumped things
Nintendo 3DS
* The Ocarina of Time US Demo Cart (which can be found on ebay, etc) is a prototype (?).

(I guess I can post this here, since this is for newly discovered prototypes? It might be better off on Content to Expand or einstein95’s list of prototypes).

Not a prototype but different to the EU demo.

That's odd. They both look a bit 2D to me, but I don't know where the game would keep those, unless they are part of the stage model/skybox.

I've tried to upload it, it didn't work. I can't compress it to less than 7MB or so (with 7z or RAR5 - in 7zip/WinZip).

There may of course be little-known compression formats that can compress it further (but that is a bad idea).

Might as well post this here. Yahoo Auctions. One day left, first and only bid = 1000 yen. The seller doesn't ship internationally.
Nintendo DS - October 2006 Demo Cart

I'm hoping someone who wants to preserve (dump) it for TCRF will buy it (that's why I'm posting it here).

EDIT:
I don't know why I posted this in the Prototypes! thread.

I just noticed there is already a thread for exactly this.

Please delete this.

I think it is a good idea to put a link to a mirror/reupload of the original video file, in the description of YouTube videos. Because downloading videos from YouTube with something like youtube-dl and converting them will inevitably cause loss in quality, and it'd be best to reduce this where possible.

I didn't mean that it should be added to the video rules as a requirement. Just something that people (or just me) might want to do, in case TCRF transitions to hosting videos.

This doesn't really count as a prototype, it is just a mixture of different prerelease versions, not a single leaked version.

Its very possible that a load of images were taken from one version, but it is not possible to be sure. Anyway this version is probably not leaked - the images were probably from straight from Nintendo.

So what exactly does this cover, that TCRF does not?

Most of that stuff about Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis) seems to be on TCRF.

And the guidelines says:

"Add This Stuff
[...]
3. Differences between released versions."

"Don't Add This Stuff
[...]
5. Publisher, logo, and copyright/licensing changes between regions."

This seems to suggest that this stuff is okay.

Or do you mean differences between the 'same game' on different platforms [e.g. Donkey Kong (Arcade) -> Donkey Kong (NES)]?

Because that isn't in the guidelines under 'Add This Stuff' or 'Don't Add This Stuff'.

If this stuff isn't going to be covered by TCRF, than documenting it on that wiki sounds like a good idea.

But I'm not sure about having an overlap between the two sites, that seems like a waste of time to me.
