Yes, a person by the name of someguy on Mario Fans Games Galaxy has shown me a site with new screens, thus inspiring me to complete beta mario VERY soon. I just thought some may be as interested in this as much as me.

The link: beta screens

I will shows some new screens very soon on my progress from these shots.

To tell you the truth they look pretty crappy as in the action screens but the Overworld looks AMAZING!

Hmm... It's interesting to find a 1989 SMW beta-version. If you want to remake, may I give you some advice?
1. Mario sprite is too weird so better not remake.
2. It seemed that Nintendo has kept the glitch in the castle (columns background) since 1989
3. The status bar was a little different from what it looks like in the 1991 version.
4. The "4w-1" on the OW maybe needs a lot of ASM working and self-made graphic. Same with the coin counter and the score counter.
5. The castle ground seemed to be made inX of metal, it's very cool!
6. What's the weird thing on the title screen the island?

Edit: Silly Grammar mistake.

That is exactly what I was thinking. I'm going to grab as much as I can from these. It also looks like there may have been some layer 3 for the clouds in screens 6 and 8. Look at the more circular ring clouds in the BG.

Edit: These screens look like they were taken by a camera. Nintendo would never do that so perhaps someone has a rom of it. I'm gonna look around...

According to BMF, these are photos of an old japanese magazine. A camera was used because the person didn't have a scanner.

Oh, okay, at least that saves me some time. Exactly how much does BMF know of Mario Worlds beta?

I really like the older overworld. I love how angular, diagonal, and uneven the paths look!

Also the isometric pseudo 3d effects on the water, and how the grass isn't fluffy and hanging over the cliffs. That looks nice.

It looks like the core engine is already finished and they where just fine tuning it.

I think that the team was then working mostly on level-design.
It sounds about right, one year for fine tuning and polishing the levels and testing.

And most of us know which fruits Nintendo did harvest with this game.

Those are from a Nintendo Power Issue from back in the '89.
I can't say these are anything new, and I'm quite sure I've seen these pictures before many times.

I'm sure a Beta exists. Most likely a test copy forgotten, or a mistaken dump for one of those "1000-in-1" carts.

However if the cart is found, I'm sure its price would rise up to... Say, many thousands of dollars?

I believe most of these have been seen before.

And am I the only one who prefers the released SMW over the beta?

People tend to like obscure things, or quite simply things they don't have. If the final version of the game looked like this beta and vice versa, people would think the other version looks better, I guess...

Stifu is probably right. Besides I'm almost done with this hack. All I need is a complete overhaul of SMW's overworld to look like the beta's screens and I am also very close to done with beta small mario, I just need like 5 or 6 frames more filled for him, and I am not doing well with getting him some ducking GFX.

Edit: Oh, and if you can get in touch with this magazine owner BMF, that would be pretty rad.

On the levels themselves, they seem OK, except for how we get that retro feel of SMB3 on them, which is good.

As for the Overworld...

I'm sure he's not the only one who owns the mag.

Well, if you know someone with the mag, great. But I don't even know what mag it is, so BMF is all I have to rely on that right now.

Those screens take me back, I remember seeing'em in EGM back in the day. I like how the Goombas look though...

I wonder why the Betas always look better in most areas of them. Seriously, Sonic 2 Beta had some nice lvls, and what do they do in the final version, they remove them and leave all of the worse lvls! I mean, wtf, what is wrong with these people. Same thing with this Beta, I think it looks a hell lot better than the final. But oh well, apparently video game companies tend to get a little retarded towards the end of development.
And no, I'm not just saying that because it's not in the final version. Even if it were I'd still prefere this game's stuff over the current final version's.
