The Cutting Room Floor:Content to expand
Hi! This is a list I'm making as a sort of dump of things to be added that don't have full pages yet. Sort of a "I know there is something here, but we need to work on it" type of things. These pages don't even have articles; if they did, this would be better with something like Template:Investigate and/or Template:Todo.
If you know of something in a game that's not here but don't have enough knowledge to write about it (and there's no article, or the article really sucks) feel free to add something to the list here and hopefully somebody can look at it.
Items on this list should be removed whenever they've been sufficiently documented and article-ized, with any remaining information put as templates.
Link's Awakening sums it up best:
Here is your clue. Make all the red blue.
There is a prerelease equivalent here.
Multiplatform Games
- The Bard's Tale has a debug menu, which can be accessed in the Xbox version.
- Bastion has some unused narration.
- Battlefield 4 probably has some early content that might be worth poking around in.
- Beyond Good And Evil went through numerous changes in development (ESPECIALLY at the last minute.) Some of the more obvious ones are documented here, but surely there's much more that hasn't been covered.
- Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 has some unused music.
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (GameCube, PS2, Xbox) has a debug mode and an unused level.
- Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds apparently contains empty character file references to Frank West and Dr. Octopus, as well as a plethora of sound clips which go completely unused, including a light hit KO clip for Zero, a few alternate lines for Dormammu, and a VERY overdramatised death cry for Galactus amongst numerous more.
- Medal of Honor: Frontline and Medal of Honor: Rising Sun have "tons of unused models in the game's folder. Most of the models are in .bsp extension"
- NASCAR 06: Total Team Control might have leftovers of Bill Elliot as a playable driver, as his name is listed with other playable drivers as seen in a tutorial video.
- Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee has some test levels and a debug menu.
- Poker Night 2 may have unused audio, these unused clips have already been found.
- Rayman has some unused graphics and stuff.
- Rayman Origins is said to have unused dialogue. The dialogue gave the game more of a plot, but the developers cut it for unknown reasons. There is also a really epic rock tune floating somewhere on the disc that was meant to play in a scrapped boss battle where the Magician revealed himself to be Mr. Dark's apprentice/biggest fan. The real encounter with the Magician in the final has the player merely chase him down.
- Resident Evil: Revelations has two widely-available demos. The "pilot" version included in Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D appears to be an early prototype. The "trial" version that is downloadable on the eShop, also has some interesting differences. It may be easier to look for unused content in the Windows port, rather than the original 3DS or the remake consoles.
- Retro City Rampage may have an unused cutscene portrait meant for after unlocking CommanderVideo. This may not be in all versions, though.
- Another thing worth noting is that Splosion Man was supposed to be in the game at one point, the actual mission he was supposed to be featured in is still in the game, but Splosion Man is replaced with an original character named Sweat Bomber.
- Finally, while it isn't unused, almost every version of the game features an "NES prototype", see if it's possible to extract the ROM to dig for unused content.
- Return to Zork, according to a discussion on the ScummVM forums, apparently has some unused text for various deaths and other objects.
- Ride to Hell: Retribution The game basically is a debug menu.
- There's also evidence that the PC version was going to include a completely new DRM system named Silverlink
- Saw has some unused content, like some unused player characters and Dr. Gordon's scrapped appearance.
- Scribblenauts Unlimited has a test map.
- Sniper: Ghost Warrior has a debug menu, which can be accessed in at least the Windows and Xbox 360 versions. It's unknown if the PS3 version has it too.
- Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro has a revisional difference due to post 9/11 censorship (specifically, the last stage).
- Soldiers of Fortune II: Double Helix was altered in the German version to make all the humans robots.
- Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing has some unused voice clips.
- Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed is said to have incomplete character data for Billy Hatcher. He was meant to be playable, which explains why he does not appear with his friends at Chilly Castle and why he doesn't appear as a hologram at Race of AGES, but his data was never completed because the devs couldn't come up with a good vehicle design for him.
- The console and Vita versions also have incomplete, unused data of the PC-exclusive characters.
- Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I has an Xbox 360, a Playstation 3 and a Windows prototype and some of the features from the prototypes were used in mobile versions of the game, among other platform differences.
- Street Fighter IV (the original edition) contains 3 unused voice clips by the announcer. 2 of which were "Dee Jay Wins! and "Thunder Hawk Wins!", implying that both characters were planned to be playable before Super Street Fighter IV, while the other was an ominous warning about the "character colour" changing.
- To add on to this, Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition features unused animations for a number of characters, including a command throw for Dan, a very early kicking throw for Ken, 3 unused Super concepts for Abel, a down MK body splash for E.Honda, and a ridiculous amount of unused concepts for Oni. It's highly likely that many of these (save for Oni's content) are present in the original Street Fighter IV, a video showing all of them is here: [1]
- Tomb Raider: Underworld has a test level.
- TowerFall Ascension has button/controller icons for Ouya, Xbox 360, and PS4 controllers, all of them left in all of the versions of the game.
- True Crime: New York City has a easily accessible (via button combo) debug menu that has all sorts of switches and options to document.
- Turok (2008) has a number of unused levels, including some used for testing objects.
- Two Worlds 2 appears to have a debug menu in all versions.
- UFC Personal Trainer is built off of, of all things, a cancelled Saint's Row game. Check if there's any remnants.
- Zork Grand Inquisitor has dev messages/credits and more, as well as IMNOTDEAF (unknown function) and 3100OPB (shows current location?).

- Ares has revision differences between the Changeling Software and Ambrosia Software releases. There may be unused stuff only in the Changeling Software releases too.
- Cythera has text for a yet-to-be-discovered cheat mode.
- Harry: The Handsome Executive has a placeholder music track.
- SimCity 2000 has some unused sprites for a parachute jumper; these are apparently exclusive to the Macintosh version of the game. See here.

Atari ST

Commodore 64
- This thread from 2008 mentions a lot of unused things in various C64 games (sprites, hidden messages, other crap). Someone with better knowledge of old C64 games than me should check this thread out (I only code the C64, I don't play it...). The guy who ran The Games That Weren't has a blog post about this, plus more.
- A tape loader used in various games (Sanxion, Mega Apocalypse, etc.) apparently contains the string "HACKERS FUCK OFF AND DIE" (of course this doesn't show up in most/all of the cracked versions that have completely different loaders). By extension, the string probably appears in a number of different games. I wonder how that should be handled?
Commodore Plus/4

- A handful of other Origin games have confirmed debug modes.
- Commander Blood has some unused movies and graphics that would later be used in the French-only sequel Big Bug Bang.

- Laura Bow in: The Dagger of Amon Ra has a handful of unused sprites and animations, such as one of Laura vomiting.
- Leisure Suit Larry 6 has some preliminary backgrounds, and Leisure Suit Larry 7 has some unused graphics in general (even in the demo version).
- Lemmings has lots of demos with a single new level, exclusive to that demo. Also if I'm not wrong, the last level is exclusive to each system, so the PC and Amiga versions have a different last level. Also the version can be checked using "VERSION" as level code, but for some reason the earliest version of the game won't recognize it. Maybe they didn't plan to make newer versions?
- Mega Man 3 has unused graphics.
- Pac-In-Time has leftovers from Fury of the Furries.
- The VGA remake of Quest for Glory has some leftovers from the EGA version.
- Quest for Glory II has some unfinished backgrounds and unused sprites.

- Redneck Rampage has at least one instance of a hidden message (eg. Down the blocked-off road in the first level; "Did you really think there was something here?").
- Shadow Warrior has an unused earlier sprite of the dying Master Leap, indications the dog statues were supposed to be a fourth key type among other, typical unused stuff in the .GRP file similar to Duke3D. It also has a self-labelled "beta" 0.90 version that was leaked which contains remnants all the way back to 1995, as well as early/unused versions of pretty much every map in the game.

- Torin's Passage has a fair amount of unused stuff

- Games developed by ImaginEngine always seem to have unused graphics.
- Every game bundled with Windows Vista and 7 have a debug modes which can be enabled with registry tweaks.

- What does changing fDebugWindow="0" in any of the Living Books games' decription file (*.512 or *.LB) do?

Also, content available for scenario building (a "Modern Alt." city icon in CITIES.gif, extra unit slots and designs) which aren't used in the main game. (All of this is in at least the MGE version, and probably other releases.) Note that the PS1 version already has a page.

- Dungeon Keeper 2 has an unused, but functional, spell named 'Invulnerable'.
- Eversion has some unused eversion levels pre-1.7.3, as seen in this video. Using a level editor shows that there might be one more...
- Eye of the Beholder was rushed, leaving a clearly unfinished ending, and some items and level sections which apparently were going to be used on the full ending. There is a fan patched version (v1.9) which restores a bit of it.
- Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel has weapons, missions, perks, and miscellaneous items.
- Final Fantasy XI has unused spells and levels. Example.
- Fuel has a debug menu.
- Gold Box games in general (these are the old SSI D&D games such as Pool of Radiance). There are several debug line commands as seen here. It is curious that some of them serve to skip the copy protection, yet were left on the commercial versions.
- Grand Prix Manager 2 has leftovers from GPM1 and a developer note about some in-game pictures, as well as a text file containing references to a helmet editor for GPM1, and planned support for car damage.

- Ishar when played on DOSBox 0.74 gets a weird glitch, it shows a language selection screen which shouldn't appear, as far as I know this game is only in English. Were the translations scrapped? Are they just currently lost but the English version contains files for other languages?
- Island Xtreme Stunts has a cheat mode and a cheat menu.
- Knights of the Old Republic 2 has lots of unused content in general (the ending's a good place to start) and definitely needs an article.

- Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance has placeholder texture for Otacon's full-body model (found within *cdrom.img\face\f04a\,"\f04b).
- Odium (aka Gorky 17 for you crazy Europeans): I've only taken a quick glance at the game files. There was lots of commented-out dialogue and some removed enemies, but I haven't played that game for so long... There's definitely unused goodies to find in there, though.

- Temple of Elemental Evil: A Classic Greyhawk Adventure: being a Troika game, a number of things got cut in the rush to market on top of general buginess. Examples include the children of Hommlet and the Snake Pit in Nulb. These are restored in the "Circle of 8" mod series.
- Terrordrome - not finished yet, but demos (v2.5, 2.6, 2.7, and 2.8 as of October 2012) can be found on sites such as Mediafire with differences. Official site here.

- Unreal Tournament 2004
- There are a shitload of unused models from a very early Gears of War, back when it was called Unreal Warfare. Models, textures, propaganda poster textures showing early COG designs, you name it; it's there. All of them are viewable in the editor, so it should be easy.
- An unused Onslaught ladder for SP exists. Check it out and see what levels are in it and how playable it is.
- The Urbz: Sims in the City apparently has unused accessories.
- Welcome To Ponyville: Act 1 has tons of unused graphics and voice clips. As well as a few developer notes in the game's LUA files.

- Zoo Tycoon has unused sound effects, version differences, and a prototype.
- Conker: Live & Reloaded have unused text.

- Halo (Xbox) has an unused enemy, the Covenant Engineer. Also, there's a flamethrower that was later used in the Windows/Mac version.
- Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders has an early debug build that predates the final by one year.
- ToeJam & Earl III: Mission to Earth had DLC support, but since the original Xbox's Xbox Live support is long gone, said DLC should be documented. Also, the game itself has two unused cinematics:
- CaptureTest.sfd, a short gameplay clip of ToeJam running back and forth
- opening.sfd, an early version of the startup video. It is missing all of the logos sans the title logo, and the title logo uses the font of the first two games, and is missing the "Mission to Earth" subtitle
- World's Scariest Police Chases 2: Code Red (unreleased) has unused graphics, a debug menu and a possible test video. Some of these have been found here
Xbox 360
- These games have known, available prototypes with varying degrees of completion and debugging features aplenty:
- Crackdown; the leaked build predates the final release by three years.
- Dead Space 2.
- Forza Motorsport 2.
- Lost Planet 2.
- Lost Planet: Colonies.
- Splatterhouse (2010); two builds, the earliest of which is alleged to be very unstable on retail consoles.
- Because Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts spent so many years in development hell and changed from a platformer to a car game, it should probably be checked.
- Dead Rising seems to contain quite a few primitive animations left over from earlier builds of the game.
- Game Room has some unused graphics. Also Game Pack 12 was supposed to include Sunset Riders, but it was never added.
- Lost Planet: Colonies has a debug menu.
- Wheel of Fortune has a ton of unused voiceovers that likely also apply to the 2012 PS3 version (due to THQ's bankruptcy in December 2012, these are unlikely to be used in DLC).
- Puzzle categories that are rare (Headline; Fictional Family shortly before it was merged with Fictional Character{s} into simply "Character{s}"), haven't been on the show in years (Best Seller; What Are We Making?), or never existed on the show (Classic Rock; Where Are We Going?). Among these are eight former categories well-known for offering cash bonuses, including Next Line Please, Where Are We?, Who Is It?, and Slogan. It should be noted that the categories present in the game are taken directly from the show's official category list, given to contestants...which is clearly outdated.
- Variations on "Sorry. All the consonants are gone and no one solved it. That money will go unclaimed." This is used in the Wii U version if everyone has less than $250 and cannot solve the puzzle, though.
- Wheel dollar values that either don't exist ($475; $4,000; $10,000) or have not been on the show in decades ($275; $2,000).
- Intro voiceovers of "Something seems strange. Have we been here before?" and "Well, now this brings back some memories.", labeled PAT_BANTER_INTRO_RETRO. (These might be used in the "1980s set" DLC, though.)
- All of the above sound files are Pat's. Vanna's sound files contain explanations for a minigame called "Pick One", and mentions both Circle Pads and Analog Sticks; this may indicate that a 3DS version was in the works at some point.
Windows Phone 7
- COLLAPSE! has lots of unused text.
Windows CE
- Solitaire (which version?) has hidden developer credits.
- Do any of the following have debug modes? This follows from my (andlabs') observation that early Now Production games (at least on the NES and Genesis) all have debug functionality left in:
- Lots of released prototypes from Lost Levels
- All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros. may have leftovers from Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, as it runs on the same engine.
- Choplifter not known but a request (from andlabs): does the Famicom version contain any removed references to Sega? It's closer to Sega's 1985 arcade version than any of the other versions.
- Classic Concentration from the same developer as "Harlem Globetrotters" unused developer's logo ("Softie Corporation") for the title screen (Nintendo logo is used here)
- Doki Doki Panic probably has unused stuff other than the smiley sprite.
- Dragon Power had some changes compared to the Japanese and French versions.
- Excitebike contains two options on the Design menu, Load and Save, neither of which are operable in the NES version. Apparently they were intended to be used with a storage device that never saw the light of day (possibly a tape drive, seen in early NES mockups). Both options are fully programmed and would function as intended if this device were present. The loading and saving system was added to the 3DS 3D Classics version. In addition, the Load and Save options are completely absent in the Animal Crossing version.
- Family Circuit '91 "Knigh Games" sprite logo intended to be used during the intro
- Family Mahjong packman sprites seems to be unused in game, but maybe they are part of some unrevealedeaster, also there are unused mouth animations for characters
- Family Trainer: Rairai Kyonsees early proto has a different fullscreen picture of the girl, which is redrawn ugly in the final version
- Harlem Globetrotters unused tilemaps and graphics for different title screen and sprites for unused "Nintendo" logo
- Hello Kitty no Ohanabatake unused recorder/player for the demos, contains recorded demos for levels 0, 3, 12, which is totally incompatible with the final versions of the levels or level numbers intelf is changed
- Lunar Ball (NES) - this NSF - is track 15 used? (Pointed out to andlabs in IM by Sik, who "had that game since I was 3 years old".)
- Ninja Gaiden the US version contains an earlier copies of data and code inside unused areas, maybe contains portions of early scripts

- Burai Fighter Deluxe has unused item graphics.
- Castelian (Game Boy) has regional differences. (game title, title screen, protagonist sprites, songs)
- Dragon Ball Z: Legendary Super Warriors has unused graphics.
- Maya the Bee & Her Friends was made from a finished, yet cancelled South Park game for the Game Boy Color (it was cancelled due to Nintendo, Matt Stone, and Trey Parker not wanting to release an adult game for a system that was mostly owned by children). When the game was localized for the US, it was apparently hacked apart and released as two games, The New Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley and Mary-Kate & Ashley Get a Clue!. How the devs went from South Park to goddamn Mary-Kate and Ashley is a mystery for the ages. Look through the ROMs to see if there are any leftover South Park content.
- Does Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Children: Shiro no Sho (White Book) have anything, like its counterparts?
- Spot: The Cool Adventure has regional differences.

- Command and Conquer supposedly has a debug mode, but I can't get it to work. Anyone with better dexterity wanna give it a try?
- Superman has some remnants in the final game from said proto, some textures supposedly taken from GoldenEye 007, and given how much of a cesspool the game is, it most likely has more stuff.
- Super Mario 64 has a 64DD prototype that was recently discovered. Resembling a near final build, there are many aesthetic changes, as well as a couple game breaking bugs. Document it once it receives a public release.
- Tommy Thunder (unreleased) has a build date and hidden concept art from a completely different game inside the ROM.
- Turok 2: Seeds of Evil has an awesome demo version. There's a good article on it here. And it has debug options view-able from a text search of the RAM memory.

Game Boy Advance (Unlicensed)

- Cars has some debug features.
- Chibi-Robo! has debug/test rooms, and "a broken music file of Super Chibi-Robo sound effect [and] also a file called sample which is probably used for testing"?
- Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem has E3 demo menu graphics.
- Star Fox Assault has an unused remix of the Game Over screen from Star Fox 64.
- TimeSplitters 2 has an unused Gothic MapMaker tileset accessible with AR codes. IIRC there are also unused weapon models and the sci-fi handguns with alternate tracer colors used by the aliens in the Planet X mission can be used by the player.

- Mario Sports Mix has lots of unused models and textures.
- Monster Hunter Tri has many unused icons.
- Nicktoons MLB has Rocko from Rocko's Modern Life as an unused character. All his data is still there and may still be playable if hacked in.

- Pokémon Rumble has text and data for a debug menu.
- Although not exactly notable on its own, Punch-Out!! contains a few oddities within the internal filenames, notably implying that the new character Disco Kid was originally going to be Kid Quick from the original arcade game. According to this link, there are also a few unused tracks in the game.
- Sonic and the Secret Rings has some test files and some test videos (maybe not unused).
- Sonic Unleashed (Wii) contains an unused and inaccessible 1-Up box object in the Werehog tutorial level in Apotos, retained from Sonic 06.
- Tales of Graces has dummied-out artes: Sophie's Final Fury and Blast Heart, and Cheria's Innocent Shine and Meteor Storm. Either playable or sound-only, there is a huge amount of them. There also seems to have traces of a certain "DEVD," thought to be a missing character (much like PAT in Vesperia). It has also revisional differences.
- The Penguins of Madagascar: Dr. Blowhole Returns has many test levels.
- The Wii series:
- Wii Party, Wii Play: Motion and Wii Fit all have unused graphics.
- Wii Chess has regional differences.
- Wreck-It Ralph has some test rooms. Check if they work.

- WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase has two different games in the Japanese version. "Punch-Out!!" was originally "Card Hero", and "Kid Icarus" was originally "Freshly-Picked Tingle".
- This page has more stuff that I (einstein95) found. Stuff needs article-ised.
- 7th Dragon has text for a debug room, according to the fan translator. He even translated the text for it too!
- Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day have some unused graphics.
- Chibi-Robo!: Park Patrol has development text strewn about all over, as well as text for what appears to be a debugging menu.

- Might have unused monsters and maps as well.
- Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift has unused Grenades type weapons from the unused Transmuter Nu Mou Job, which was to combine items for abilities, but with 19 usable items, there were over 300 combinations and therefore was scrapped at the last minute. Job might be in the game, but the Grenades are present and semi-useable.
- Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings has debug menu text but it's no longer readable in non-Japanese versions, since it's all replaced with "????". It seems to have options for HP/MP. Also find a way to re-enable it.

- LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues has text for a debug menu; figure out how to access it.

- Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure (Nintendo DS) had an entire bonus chapter removed at the last minute before it was released in America. The music from that chapter is still in the American ROM data, but who knows what else was left in?
- Rhythm Heaven has been reported to have hidden graphics, via Einstein95, maybe has some other stuff buried in there.
- Scurge: Hive - For the Prerelease namespace: This and the following pages have plenty of Scurge: Hive sprites from one of the makers. There's lot of stuff I don't remember having seen in-game, except during a rare glitch I never managed to reproduce, can someone help me sort it out? Also, some files have a name implying they contain sprites from one of the scrapped enemies, but I can't get them to display properly. Also, graphics in trailers are visibly different; HUD, title screen, etc. See discussion on the old talk page.
- Sonic Colors has a debug map, like the other DIMPs Sonic DS games.
- Super Robot Taisen W - could anyone re-enable the debug menu? The patch link was on Megaupload, I think.
- Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2 has unused character portraits.
- Wheel of Fortune has the "bonus category" post-puzzle chimes (previously used as the "rolling doubles" sound on the 1987-88 High Rollers), along with some Pat Sajak lines that are used in the console versions.
- Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies has regional differences (check if a translated version of the quiz DLC exists in international versions).
- Check for differences between the Japan-only cartridge version and the international download-only versions.
- Boulder Dash-XL 3D has differences between the cartridge version and download version, such as menu fonts.
- Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion - it's painfully obvious they scrapped the whole Alice in Wonderland world, plus some levels here and there (link). There is bound to be at least unused spritework.
- Fire Emblem: Awakening has recently been decrypted, with 3 unused character names, a few placeholder chapter screens, and an extra "Dance" icon being found among other things.
- Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon's music can be ripped partially, there may be some unused.
- Mii Maker has regional differences.
- The Mysterious Murasame Castle (previously known as "Nazo no Murasame Jou", fan translated as "Riddle of Murasame Castle") was released in the West for 3DS Virtual Console. Check for differences.
- Nintendo Video also has some regional differences.
- Pokédex 3D has version differences (Pokédex 3D Pro)
- Rusty's Real Deal Baseball has regional differences.
- Swapnote has some regional differences and revisional differences from updates. (The SpotPass termination may also count, because the app stealthily removed various SpotPass-related features and references.)
- Yoshi's New Island has unused music, allegedly. Totaka's Song exists used within the game.
- Downloadable patches:
- Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW! (version not identified)
- AeternoBlade (awkwardly labelled as Version 1.0)
- Disney Magical World (Ver. 1.1)
- Hakuoki: Memories of the Shinsengumi (version not identified)
- I am an Air Traffic Controller Airport Hero Hawaii (Ver. 1.1)
- Nintendo 3DS Guide: Louvre (1.1)
- Pokémon Art Academy (1.1)
- Shin Megami Tensei IV (Streetpass update, version not identified)
- Shovel Knight (1.1)
- Siesta Fiesta (1.0)
- Steel Diver: Sub Wars (Version 2.0, Version 3.0 and Version 4.0)
- To be discussed: non-patch updates for download-only games.
- Various games have downloadable demos, which sometimes have differences from the final game for the sake of length constraints and simply to show off various aspects of the game. Whether or not these should be covered is debatable, as it's unclear whether or not some of these are actually prototypes.
- Bravely Default's demo could probably be covered as a whole other game, however, considering the fact that it is a whole other game.
Wii U
- To be discussed: updates for download-only games.
- Bayonetta 2 may have leftover early/test content just like its predecessor. Also, one video on the Platinum Games development blog is shown running the game in debug mode, look to see if this debug mode is accessible in the final release.
- Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze originally had a glitch which had a rare chance of not unlocking 3-4: Scorch 'N' Torch after completing 3-3: Frantic Fields. A patch was released that fixes this glitch, which is labeled as Version 1.1.0.
- Hyrule Warriors has had three patches, 1.3.0 is out in Japan but only 1.2.0 internationally for now. Seemingly unused voice clip found with the moveset swapping glitch, Zelda randomly starts singing Zelda's Lullaby while using Lana's Summoning Gate. Check to make sure this isn't used anywhere else, and look to see if there might be more curiosities where that came from. I've also heard reports of some of Sheik's harp songs existing but not actually being used in the game.
- Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune very likely have a plethora of unused images and such for the online gameplay features they trumpeted in promos and even on the boxes but never actually delivered. Also, given that these were THQ's last games before filing for bankruptcy a few days later (probably why they suggested the consumer pay $20 more for inferior products), they might have some other unused stuff that may overlap with those of the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions.
- The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD may have some debug controls, used to create the "The Misadventures of Link" miniseries on Nintendo Video.
- NES Remix and its sequel (naturally) have Famicom-related regional differences. And the emulations are likely to have differences as Virtual Console games do.
- New Super Mario Bros. U: there is a disc that includes New Super Luigi U & New Super Mario Bros U, as well as individual discs for both titles. Maybe NSMBU has bits from its DLC and vice versa, and both titles may have leftovers from previous entries in the series.
- Sonic Lost World (Wii U) has several patches.
- Wii Fit U has had three patches. The current version is 1.3.0.
- The Wonderful 101, like other Platinum games, may have some leftover content. It also has gotten a patch or two, fixing up (minor) bugs.
- Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric has MANY unused areas and other odd things in the void of levels, Also voice clips.
Master System
- The Sega Master System BIOS has a prototype.
- Alien 3 supposedly has an unused Fox theme like the Genesis version (according to Tiido/TmEE anyway).
- Lots of Genesis games in general, thanks to drx.
- Animaniacs has unused music.
- Aquatic Games might have some region differences. On my Mega Drive, in 100 Metre Splash, Pond makes some splashes on the water, as well as the accompanying sounds when he runs fast. This doesn't happen on Gens with the US version of the game. Region difference, or emulator flaw?
- Art of Fighting has regional differences
- Dynoblaze has unused animation frames. See here and here.
- James Pond: Underwater Agent has two unused themes.
- Micro Machines 2: Turbo Tournament has unused tracks.
- Prince of Persia has some unused songs and some regional differences.

- The MDO file has an unused portion, like a fanfare.
- Also has an unused song, said to be used in the Roller Bob level in the PC version, like in the SNES version.
- Looks like there are region differences too.
- World of Illusion (starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck) - lots of stuff here.
- WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game has a (possibly dummied) code to investigate: Right, A, Down, B, Left, Up, Right.
- andlabs's "so I don't forget" list of things to look into:
- Crusader of Centy's prototype, US final, and SK final has stuff from Beyond Oasis/The Story of Thor, which came out more than 6 months later (wtf)
- Chase HQ II plays one song in the ending but Super HQ plays two? (region difference)
- There's that unused item art in Madou Monogatari I that I found long ago but without knowing what the item palette(s) are it looks like a pile of shit (literally) :|
- Darius II/Sagaia - GameFAQs doesn't seem to have a clear idea of what all the cheat codes are? Super Hard Mode triggers a string SPECIAL MODE, for instance... Also are zones Z1 and Z2 used? Also this
- Chou Kyuukai Miracle Nine appears to have a debug menu of sorts:
00038A:60 (bypass checksum) FFED84:30 (set game mode) 0065B6:4E71 (nop out rts blocking the menu)
- Not sure if it is used or not or if it has an effect as pressing start after disabling the RAM code just brings you back to the menu, so I have to see if it's supposed to come from elsewhere by disassembling all the game's code :/
- I'll probably remember this by tomorrow morning but: Final Blow has the red Taito logo; it's loaded to VRAM (also I have to see how strings are stored in that game; it looks like the game can pick and choose characters to load and where?)
- Feng Kuang Tao Hua Yuan has a block of either unassembled helper code or compiler assembly output, not sure which... but the present dump is not from the original cart, but from a mainland China(?) "rereleasse" so I'll wait until we can get an authentic dump
- Simple sound test codes... documented in the manual or not?
- Mahjong Cop Ryuu - A+Start on title screen
- Party Quiz Mega Q - A+B+C+Start on title screen
- Crack Down - Japanese characters loaded in title screen? there don't seem to be any in the intro or on the title screen... or anywhere in the game...
- Rugby World Cup 95 appears to have each of its functions suffixed by the function's name (like a symbol table but scattered throughout the ROM). Also "Dave Was Here!"
- There's a flag that if set to nonzero, the game loop will enter an endless loop that cycles through each of the big-board animations that can show up; check at $13DA and loop immediately afterwards, checks -$6EA1(a5) where a5 is $69C (yeah it's one of those games)
- Turns out many, if not all, of the Extended Play Productions games have these symbol setups...
- Hellfire: "M2612 SOUND REAUEST TABLE "/"ERRORS=0000"/" 0221 END"
- bah it's located in the sound driver
- Also
pietro@pietro-laptop:~/ida_linux$ bgrep '0D 1E 0D 0E' Hellfire* Hellfire (Europe).md: 000120f5 Hellfire (USA).md: 000120ff
- for the hard ending text... but the EU version wasn't Seismic...
- While investigating the M2612 thing:
- for the hard ending text... but the EU version wasn't Seismic...
- this is nonsense for Hellfire (begins with a conditional branch to noncode, calls the middle of functions at non-entry points, and the last call jumps inside an opcode)
- ...and is only in Hellfire (only in JP version)? something's not right here
- not in arcade versions
- ...and is only in Hellfire (only in JP version)? something's not right here
- this is nonsense for Hellfire (begins with a conditional branch to noncode, calls the middle of functions at non-entry points, and the last call jumps inside an opcode)
- Pac-Attack: are the credits immediately after puzzle mode?
- shobiz found a lot of stuff in Quackshot
- Jantei Monogatari has a button code on the main menu that seems to affect the starting state of the game in some weird way that I can't tell
- Janou Touryuumon has a region check... that reports that it only runs on NTSC Genesis (instead of the correct NTSC Mega Drive)
- Mega SWIV: word $80 is used as a flag to do something when you get hit by a bullet, but what?
- Rainbow Islands Extra has a title screen cheat code: Up B Down Left C A A* B** C***. The last three buttons are so marked because you can stop at any one of those and only get the effects of the buttons you pressed. I *think* A makes you faster? I don't know... The code is checked on the main menu too. None of them appear to be related to infinite continues.
- B button: [00:18] <Mister_Argent> Hey, i just tried that RI cheat code. i started off with Double Rainbows, but i don't know if that's normal for extra mode or not.
- King Colossus: down up up down right left right left on the game over screen continues -- is this in the manual? even if it is, an additional right right is at the the end of the code, but the game stops after eight button presses
- Mega lo Mania/Tyrants: Fight Through Time:

- FAQ has no mention of ports...
- The Japanese version has bits and pieces of SNASM68K left in it

- Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has an actual symbol table? (as opposed to Rugby World Cup 95)
- Bonanza Bros. seems to have text for a stage select
- Mega Bomberman - word at $2D8 in US version - if changed to a nonzero value, the CRAM is altered on every main loop cycle to show something (CPU usage debug?)
- Socket
[22:54] <GenesisFan64> don't forget the unused song, B G M 19
- also various Unknown labels in GF64's disassembly
- Pat Riley Basketball (at least the JP version) has a Sound and Animation Test; the sound part works but not the animation...?
- Double Clutch has a cheat code it checks for right at startup! ...but my patch codes to hang the game when it checks the variable it sets when the cheat code is activated don't seem to do anything... does it happen when not in a race? I would need to beat a race to find out...
- Find FRUITMEISTER I in an earlier Eurocom Genesis game (have t wait for SeanieB to finish changing Sega Retro hard drives before I can get a list)

Genesis (Unlicensed)

- Smart Mouse has an unused title screen.
- Spiritual Warfare "QUACK! super secret bonus room" text inside.

Game Gear
- CutThroat Island has a prototype with a cheat mode.
- Lunar: Samposuru Gakuen has a debug mode.

- The Sega Saturn BIOS has revisional and regional differences.
- Spot Goes to Hollywood has a level select.
- Battle Arena Toshinden URA, and D-Xhird have debug modes that can be accessed without Action Replay codes. The D-Xhird debug code is accessed via a D-Pad input during the Takara logo, but what is it?
- Andretti Racing has a rather fantastic hidden menu that allows you to adjust your fuel amount, number of laps, enemy AI and even the centrifugal force to make slipstreaming easier or trigger incredible crashes where your car flips as if there is no gravity!
- NASCAR '96 has a debug menu that lets you alter many aspects of the game and play in Wireframe mode.

- Tomb Raider II has the following message in the exe, unreferenced. Dude is Dude Howe from the first game, aka Andrew Howe. There's also an earlier build ID'd as 'Release Version 1.1' from September 1997. It purportedly has all the levels, but the US final has a 'playable.psx' level file that it doesn't have.
Dude greets: Shroomz, Bag, The Menzie, Nagra, K-Comm, Snake & McBain of EZ-o-Ray... Mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com
- Tony Hawk's Pro Skater has a prototype version floating around the net with quite a few differences to the final
PlayStation 2
- Pretty much every NIS game ever:
- Soul Nomad and its debug modes.
- Disgaea 2 and its debug modes (it has some, right?). Also, the unused item "Hyperdrive" from La Pucelle and Disgaea 1.
- Probably other games like Phantom Brave, La Pucelle: Tactics, and god knows what else.
- Bloody Roar 3 has a debug mode that is only in the Japanese version.
- Bully has one character that was probably cut early in development, as only an untextured model called TO_Gas_SA exists in world.img.
- Dark Cloud has a dummied Shell Ring, and others and it includes a Debug Menu for Dungeons.
- Dark Cloud 2 has a debug mode. More info on the game's talk page.
- Dragonball Z: Budokai features unused audio clips intended for the World Tournament mode which imply 3 extra characters were planned. There are also rather significant differences between US and European versions of the game, the latter lacking a dub track and featuring a totally different (and unintentionally hilarious), far more literal translation from Japanese.
- Dragonball Z: Budokai 2 contains a few regional differences, particularly an extra Dragon World stage and an extra costume for Frieza referencing Neko Majin Z in Japanese versions.
- Gran Turismo 4
- has regional differences
- different cars
- different License Tests (i.e. S-16)
- different music (not 100% sure)
- maybe more

- Gran Turismo Concept (2001 Tokyo is the Japanese version, 2002 Tokyo-Geneva is the European version. There's also Korean version)
- different cars? (Mazda Atenza/6 Touring Car)
- Castrol logo in Toyota RSC Rally Car
- unused cars in 2002 Tokyo-Geneva (New Mini Rally Car, Razo 350Z, etc. Hashiken NSX is just NSX LM Road Car with a different name)
- Gungrave There's a big possibility Gungrave may be a reworked version of the cancelled Trigun: The Planet Gunsmoke game. It's even designed by Yasuhiro Nightow, Trigun's creator/designer.
- King of Fighters: Maximum Impact has a fun stash of unused voice clips, such as Yuki and...ANDY BOGARD!?
- Kingdom Hearts has removed content from all games.
- The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon features at least a few instances of cut dialogue for the Dam level between Spyro and The Hunter referencing his fear of water. The Legend games are relatively unexplored so chances are more cases of unused audio may exist on the disc.
- Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty has a demo/trial edition that came with ZOE, with a cheat cart you can use the FAMAS that was shown in early videos/screenshots but ended up being cut from the final version and more [9]. A few scenarios which are either incredibly obscure or totally unused can also be found in this video, and given how absurdly comprehensive the Metal Gear games are normally, I'm positive there's more waiting to be uncovered.
- Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater has some unused sound files for the early version of the torture scene.
- and a dev menu. Instructions (and pre-made save files) can be found here
- Mortal Kombat Deception contains an unused voiceset intended for Young Shujinko, implying he may have been programmed to learn the moves of other fighters, and may have possibly been fully playable at one stage.
- Oni has lots of removed content. Sadly I can't find the page which would show some of it. Also the images from the loading screen hint at a completely different plot.
- Prince of Persia: Sands of Time has debugging text located in DATA\PRINCE.BF but currently cannot be decompressed. Check if it's in th ePC version which can be decompressed.
- Ratchet & Clank has a lot of changes between the demo and final, and there is a vessel in the final (on the Drek's Fleet level) which can only be entered with cheats. Probably worth noting is the enemy behavior (especially the Blarg Space Commandos from Orxon) from areas of the Clank-playable sections which cannot be visited normally.
- Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando contains a plethora of unused audio clips pertaining to Platinum weaponry, helpdesk/vendor dialogue, a small amount of leftover speech from the first game, and has a suspicious-looking island on Planet Dobbo that was possibly an early ship-landing area. On top of this, the interior theme for Planet Todano allegedly doesn't play normally due to a developer oversight, but still exists on the disc.
- (andlabs TODO) Sega Ages 2500 Tetris Collection appears to have a System 16 version of Bloxeed that we otherwise don't know about (it was released on System 18 in Japan and System C internationally)
- It also has leftovers from Space Harrier II: Space Harrier Complete Collection?
- Fantasy Zone Complete Collection has a crapton of leftovers from previous entries (Monster World Complete Collection, Tetris Collection, Gunstar Heroes Treasure Box, Phantasy Star Complete Collection, etc.)
- Phantasy Star Complete Collection has two versions of the Nei text adventure: ps2tnei.bin and ps2tnei_fixed.bin. The fixed one is the one that matches what's in Genesis ROM sets, and the executable makes no mention of ps2tnei.bin but it does mention the fixed one...and the two ROMs look to be very different with a 1:1 comparison (will need to do a diff-like comparison)
- Sly Cooper and The Thievius Raccoonus has an E3 Demo, which has a couple of differences.
- Sly 2: Band of Thieves has a demo version that has its differences, as well as an unused health bar graphic. There is also a near-complete unused episode.
- Soul Calibur III contains an unused movie called "modesel.pss", dated a good few months before most of the other content on-disc.
- Spyro: A Hero's Tail contains a ridiculous amount of test rooms, one of which features the exterior Hogwarts map from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (GameCube/PS2/Xbox).
- Tales of Destiny has Blue Earth and Swordian voices for all attacks. and many more unused sound files. Also, Tales of Rebirth and Tales of Destiny 2.
- Tekken 4 contains data for a playable invisible fighter. There are also quite a few internal references to a character known as "Force", implying plans for another character similar to Crow from Tekken 3. On an interesting note, the VS character select screen (Quadra) was apparently a scrapped theme directly from Ridge Racer V.
- Tekken 5 features a test theme known as "test_bgm_aif", which is literally ripped straight out of Steve's Tekken 4 ending. Quite a few "testmap" strings can also be found in the coding, presumably for the Devil Within mode.
- TimeSplitters 2 has multiple demos [10]. There's some info on the game's notes page.
- Ty The Tasmanian Tiger has some unused voice clips.
- World Rally Championship: Rally Evolved has a debug menu.
PlayStation 3
- Quite a few PS3 games have debug menus that can be activated by running a PS3 CFW in "DEX mode" or using a debug CFW as can be seen in this post.
- BlazBlue: ChronoPhantasma has a Library Mode and a Gallery which were both completely dummied out of international releases.
- Dragonball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi apparently contains unused voiceovers for Goku, intended for the giant battle with Janemba.
- Gran Turismo 5 has unused cars and parts, which later were completely removed due to abuse, plus a debug menu (the debug menu is in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue too).
- Heavenly Sword has a debug menu.
- Lair also has a debug menu.
- PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale featured a rather intriguing development history, and the developers claimed Abe and Dart were intended to be playable but forcefully cut. There may be leftover data pertaining to these facts on-disc.
- Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time features an unused theme which sounds like a briefing of some sort.
- Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One contains at least 2 unused pieces of music, one intended for when a ship capsizes, and another corresponding to Terrawatt Forest.
- Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus features an unused track, allegedly intended for "trans-travelling".
- Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City has unused Star Wars textures.
- Siren: Blood Curse sadly got all the gruesome scenes from the European and Japanese version heavilly toned down for the US version that was released only for download via PSN due to strict restrictions by SCEA.
- Tales of Graces f (also the Wii version) has an obscenely-high amount of voice clips, including a few for unused Artes.
- Tales of Xillia - see above, and here.
- Tekken Tag Tournament 2 has an unused music cue for the Namco Bandai logo.
- Samurai Shodown Anthology has the files for no-show game Samurai Shodown V Special.
PlayStation Vita
- Gravity Rush has a kiosk demo that features a debug menu that may still be in the final version.
- As noted in the Playstation 3 section, PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale may have some unused stuff.
- Considering the fact that Trigger Happy Havoc: Dangan Ronpa is basically Dangan Ronpa 1+2 Reload with the entire second game removed, there's bound to be some leftovers. Also, the already unused content in the original PSP release may have been updated.
Neo Geo
- Plenty of debug modes to document here.
- Garou: Mark of the Wolves has the whole Khushnood Butt/Marco Rodriguez name change, and there's graphic data for an alternate title screen (Fatal Fury: Mark of the Wolves) in there.
- Thrash Rally has different car names depending on the region. The title screen song (a shortened version of Rally England stage song) is also cut off.
- andlabs' to-do list:
- General TODO: look for any Neo Geo games that have a custom eye catcher but don't use it
Neo Geo Pocket
- Dokodemo Majong has a hidden developer credit.
Adobe Flash
- Collapse! has some unused graphics.
- DJ Pinkie Pie: Vinyl Scratch has red eyes under her glasses, which are never seen in-game.
- Kantai Collection has an easter egg.
- LEGO Castle [11] has code which references a debug mode which is activated by pressing the 4 and 2 keys at the same time. It should activate the 1, - and = keys, but I couldn't get it to work
- LEGO Mars Mission: Crystalien Conflict has some debugging cheats.
- Various flash games that were once on Nintendo's website. (Available through the internet archive, some of them seem to be gone though.)
- Mario Party 7 -- Bowser's Lair Hockey has an FPS counter, see if it's possible to re-enable it.
- Mario Tennis: Power Tour -- Bicep Pump seems to have an unused sound? Someone needs to confirm this.
- Some of Gamevil's games detect if your device is rooted (similarly to Deus Ex: The Fall on iOS) and prevent themselves from launching.
- Block Block's regional changes include stage order and even the entire soundtrack.
- Center Court, a prototype of Passing Shot, has numerous differences.
- Dangun Feveron supposedly has several unused music tracks.
- Gokuyou Parodius has unused music in the MAME ROM.
- In fact, all the Parodius ports are usually different from each other. Parodius Da!: Shinwa Kara o Owarai e has the most noticeable of cuts, with two whole levels disappearing in various ports. I can't remember which game, but Konami chose to change the BGM of a level from "That's The Way I Like It" to avoid copyright.
- The music change was in Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius. It was left intact in the console versions but changed in the PSP version to "Brilliant 2U" from DDR.
- In fact, all the Parodius ports are usually different from each other. Parodius Da!: Shinwa Kara o Owarai e has the most noticeable of cuts, with two whole levels disappearing in various ports. I can't remember which game, but Konami chose to change the BGM of a level from "That's The Way I Like It" to avoid copyright.
- Gradius has one unused song, and Gradius III has three unused songs (Gradius I level start, Gradius II high-speed level, and a fanfare).
- Ketsui: Kizuna Jigoku Tachi has a few unused announcer voices - 'Just a couple more shots!', 'Please continue!', 'Game Over.'.
- The Metal Slug series - so much stuff here.
- The Punisher has unused graphics and an unused bonus stage.
- Samurai Shodown V has extensive regional changes - from cutscenes to proper endings.
- Star Gladiator contains a couple unused (test?) characters.
- Street Fighter III: New Generation has unused voice clips.
- Super Monaco GP contains major revisional difference regarding the billboards after the legal drama with Phillip Morris. (Check which revision is affected and not)
- Tapper has revisional differences.
- Time Crisis has an unused song?
- Time Pilot has revisional differences.
- Total Carnage has an ending screen that never appears because of a bug.
- X-Men vs. Street Fighter contains an unused theme present on the OST and within the game's test menu. Additionally, having both players select Apocalypse and then ending the fight in a draw results in "X-MEN VS STREET FIGHTER COMING SOON" message during continue screen. Apocalypse himself has a unused (and useless) some sort of fireball attack.
- andlabs' list:
- Borench contains leftover copyright text from Bloxeed; need to see if it contains the full code for the screen
- Space Harrier also has the bin-chan used too many colors error
- Dynamite Dux might have a different one: "OBJECT COLOR BANK OVER"? "OBJECT COLOR ENTRY OVER"?
- Wrestle War has an anti-piracy message in plaintext which is probably used but ("COPIED AND SOLD WITHOUT"...)
- Dynamite Dux (again): "SELECT COURSE BY LEVER"?
- Viewpoint has lots of debugging stuff? "H-POS %04x Z %04x" "V-POS %04x X %04x" "WALL-L %04x R %04x" "SHILD %02d" "KEY RECORD FULL"?
- Racing Hero (same programmers) too; also AB Cop?
- Thunder Force AC: Is SELECT BY JOY STICK PUSH ANY BUTTON TO RECORD TIME part of the name entry?
- Crack Down has a sound driver test? "Sound Note Oct Level 0123456789ABCDEF"
- Shadow Dancer has a round select? "SELECT THE SCENE"/"ROUND STAGE"/"COUNT UP DOWN BY SHOT JUMP BUTTON"/"START BY MAGIC BUTTON"
- The Irritating Maze: "You are died ! Time Up !! " ?
- "IDAXAN"? (multiple) This is probably just an opcode but who knows
- " DENGEKI IRA-IRA BOU"... isn't it Denryu Ira-Ira Bou
- OH BUT THERE ARE SOUND TEST STRINGS! Since the game never had a home port and the MVS service mode doesn't have a sound test...
- "COMING SOON"? (multiple)
- "SILENT@MODE"? "POSITION CHECK ROUTIN"? repeated Stage Select/Course Select strings for when starting a game?
- System 18 Bloxeed: "SEGA PRESENTS"/"SPECIAL THANKS TO GOD"/"AND EVERYONE ELSE !!"? (consecutive in ROM) "GOOD"/"DESUNE!"/"BONUS"? (together, but not immediately consecutive)
- After Burner II:
- The hidden messages (different ones) are there, and people have gotten them to show up, but we don't have a definite clue as to how written down
- Is there a way to play versions of the music with melodies? Some of the home ports have melodies added to Final Take Off (Commodore 64, PC Engine, etc.) but here's a version of the arcade song with a melody that sounds very FM-y?
- Tetris (Sega) and Flash Point - "OVERFLOW" in the RAM/ROM checks?
- Flash Point:
- Namco System 2 games (search for Now Production continues):
- Assault uses " RIDDLE OF RUBY " as a startup check string... is this significant in any way? there is no game by that title...
- Cameltry: investigate word flag at beginning
- Hebereke no Popoon: "END_OF_DATA_SECTION." and strings related to cutscenes and character names? and then " CHR TEST" near the beginning of the ROM where there is a copy of the test mode strings?
- Peter Pack-Rat: in ROMs 146 and 147 (interleaved bytes), stored with the credits:
- Namco System 2 games (search for Now Production continues):

Sharp X68000
- Lots of Easter eggs in a lot of games (mostly developer messages, images and sound test). How to access them can be found in Japanese cheat pages here.
- D-Return - the following in mdxo_mxdrv_complete.ra_ are marked unused:
Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET31.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET35.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET36.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET37.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET38.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET34.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET33.MDX matches Binary file ./NOP/D-Return/D_RET32.MDX matches

WonderSwan Color
- Final Fantasy has an unused naked bald guy in with the class select sprites, hinting at a possible use for that dude stored with the orb graphics in the original game.

Kingston Rossdale Is Quite the Playground Ladies Man (PHOTOS)
Like father, like son apparently holds true for little Kingston Rossdale.
The son of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale who definitely got every single handsome gene between the two rockers was out and about in a Beverly Hills park on Wednesday afternoon. In between playing with his papa, Kingston attracted the attention of a brunette gal who was nearby, and turned on the charm big time. Little Kingston -- who was sporting a white tank-top -- gave the onlooker a free ticket to the gun show, as he's seen flexing his muscles and hamming it up for his new pal.
While Kingston and his parents sure love having fun, there's also a serious side to the family. Recently, Gwen donated $1 million to the disaster relief effort in japan. In a statement, Stefani said: "I've been inspired by Japan for many years and have a true love, appreciation and respect for the Japanese people and their culture. The disaster in Japan is beyond heartbreaking, and I want to do anything I can to help. I would never be able to make a gesture like this without the love and support of all the fans over all these years."

K-Swiss Women's Grancourt II Tennis Shoe 35 35
Great tennis shoes This is my third pair of these shoes. Very comfortable, true to size. December 15, 2014
Stick with what works I started taking tennis lessons over a year ago and bought these shoes. They fit well and are comfortable to play. Since then I have been playing 4-6 times s week and just ordered my 3rd pair. The bottoms wear smooth but the interior and exterior holds up well. I think playing as much as I do the wear on the bottom is normal. They were on sale this.time, hope they aren't going to be discontinued because I dont want to change a good thing! October 28, 2014
Wonderful shoe Wonderful shoe - it has all the features of a competitor's shoe I used to wear that cost twice as much. It is sturdy but lightweight, and wide enough to accommodate the custom insert I wear. It was so comfortable when I put it on that I didn't have to "break it in" before wearing it on the court. I hope K-Swiss never stops making this shoe !! October 27, 2014
This is my 3rd or 4th pair. I have arthritis in my feet and these shoes make a big difference. Have tried getting other more expensive brands but keep coming back to this one. Fits my foot well. October 6, 2014
good quality and value true to size, looks sturdy but time will tell after the varsity season. nice clean style, good support on the sides. I ordered multiple of them since my kids wore out two of their Nike ones within four months and I do not expect these last any longer. fast shipping, quality packaging, and dicks has the best customer service and easy store exchange/return policy. they also match competitor's price. September 28, 2014
See below for rating reason I rated it middle because when I actually got the shoe on my foot, it was too big (I ordered it correctly, I just chose the wrong size) and it was too flat for a walking shoe. In the store I was able to make a very easy exchange for a different K-Swiss shoe, which was exactly what I wanted and is very comfortable. Great customer service all the way around at Dick's. :) September 19, 2014
Ace! Great tennis sneakers. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz August 20, 2014
This product is very comfortable I loved this product bwcause Im always walking and I stand a lot at work. IM actice at work now. The employee who helped me order this product was very patient and very nice and friendly. I will return to your store again for sure. August 2, 2014
The fit and appeal are more than I could have imagined. This is the first clothing item I have ever ordered on line. However, I am more than pleased, both with the shoe itself, but also with the ease of delivery, the promptness of delivery and the quality of the product. July 26, 2014
Solid comfy shoe WOW! I am so pleased with this shoe. I bought it to play tennis. It is a solid comfortable court shoe. You feel confident that your ankle will not roll in this shoe. True to size fit. Kiwis is old-school but still never disappoints. Dependable, great quality, price and value. Super fast shipping from Dicks! Thanks, I'll be back for more! July 17, 2014
