Through an Action Replay, a large, gray stage with the background appearing to be some kind of pub, is accessible. The music is the same as used on Fox and Falco’s stage Corneria. This is assumed to be a test stage because of its name, which on the debug menu is TEST. There are also four stages, named AKANEIA (a possible predecessor to Castle Siege from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a homeworld for Fire Emblem), 10-2, IceTop (a possible precursor to the Summit stage from the sequel, which belongs to the Ice Climbers), and Dummy, a test stage that freezes the game when opened. In addition to this, the entire Debug Menu, which was used in pre-release testing, can be used when the game is hacked, allowing for complete editing of anything in the game. Giga Bowser, both male and female Fighting Wire Frames, Master Hand, Crazy Hand, and even Sandbag are all playable (to a limited extent) via the Debug Menu. [Info from Mariowiki]

In some of the old screens, we can see some differences: in the Super Mario Field there is a warp pipe (the one next to donkey kong) which isn’t in the final game. Peach is on a platform that isn’t in the game either, the fire emblem in the background where mario, kirby, and pikachu are fighting, are different than the final.

Thanks to Dark Rayman and Abu5ername for the contributions!

   When were these characters going to be or in the game? In the Debug Menu no remains of those characters are found. Do you know a website that says so?

   The Super Mario Field has a warp pipe(the one next to donkey kong) which isn’t in the finished game. Peach is on some platiform that isn’t in the game either, the fire emblem in the background where mario, kirby, and pikachu is fighting,is different than the original and the last two pictures are break the target levels that isn’t in the game.

    Snake actually going to be in melee but it was to late in development too add him because of time restraints and this may explain why the bottom row is short by one character

    To FullMetalMC: Well, Slo_Mo25 is right. Miyamoto wanted Boshi to be in the game, but Boshi would be a clone. We know that they’re a lot of clones in Melee, but Boshi would just be a stronger Yoshi, just like Dr. Mario of Mario. Anyway, this got remove as his alternate color, because Miyamoto screwed it up. He made too many mistakes that he gave up on the project.
