#Hotel Mario

Top: extremely early world map screen found within a recently surfaced prototype version of Hotel Mario. Note that the map shows eight Koopa hotels, not seven as famously stated in Bowser's letter in the finished game.

Bottom: this plays into the "Iggy's Cheese Hotel Theory" I have previously presented on the Supper Mario Broth twitter.com account, where various factors all seem to point towards an eighth deleted hotel, likely belonging to Iggy Koopa and possibly cheese-themed.

the origins of bowuigi

While in most Mario games that feature extra lives, the object that grants them is a 1-Up Mushroom, in Hotel Mario, this object is supposed to be a Toad instead.

Top: the entry about Toad from the game's manual. Middle: how Toad appears during gameplay (left side of image). Bottom: all of Toad's sprites, extracted from the files.

The item appears as a cross between a regular type of mushroom as seen in Mario games, and a Blue Toad's head, which results in it resembling a faceless, severed Blue Toad head hopping around.

It's so funny that, in the Hotel Mario prototype, the "toasters" cutscene has had its audio completely obliterated by a stereo test that isn't even stereo.
