Nintendo leaks: Super Mario 64 and Zelda: Ocarina of Time beta enemies, unreleased Mario Kart 64 items, more
Since our last report on the new Nintendo leaks, a bunch of additional findings have been publicized online. Much of what has been found over the past day or so pertains to N64 titles, including beta/unused enemies for Super Mario 64 and Zelda: Ocarina of Time. We also have a look at scrapped items for Mario Kart 64 and more.
Here’s the roundup of notable discoveries:

Still haven't went to bed. Still doing Mario 64. Bunch of unused animations I'm going to take a peak at now, here's "windemoAold", which is mario doing a cute little dance. This was supposed to go instead of the star dance animation. pic.twitter.com/qhuNOTkkod

In Super Mario 64's leaked files, they refer to the game as "Ultra 64 Mario Brothers". Apparently, this wasn't just a codename. Here is a model file for part of the early title screen! pic.twitter.com/nfS8mklcgO

Mario Kart 64
Item graphics from the leaked MK64 source. I'm pretty sure some of these are unused. pic.twitter.com/C6ELJpZDVO

Early versions of the spider houses and beneath the well/redead rooms from Majoras Mask are present in the DD files found by @SageOfMirrors and @xdanieldzd as well.
Likely meaning they were initially made for MasterQuest/DD URA EXPANSION but then used for MM later on. pic.twitter.com/6eGjtIjv0n

It looks like MQ/URA was originally going to have its own version of a boss rush mode. There are multiple alternate versions of dungeon rooms that would have you play through smaller versions of the dungeons that then lead directly to a boss. Found by @Psi_Hate I believe. pic.twitter.com/JxZxzIYcqS

Star Fox 64, including beta logos
Cut from the final release of Star Fox, there was a section at the beginning of the Out of This Dimension level that would spell the words STAR FOX using letters made of level parts. pic.twitter.com/JwGwSd8hg5

The latest Nintendo leak was originally reported on Friday. News quickly followed, including a bunch of beta sprites for classic Nintendo titles, a pitch for an online PC Pokemon game, Luigi in Super Mario 64 and an early look at Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and beta sprites for Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. If anything else emerges, we’ll be sure to let you know.
