Fun Fact: the placeholder graphic for wonder seeds is actually a gem apple from the Kirby Clash Series. This includes Team Kirby Clash, a sub game to Planet Robobot, Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, this being the sub-game turned into a full fledge one, and Super Kirby Clash, a remake of the original game for the Switch.

If you listen real close to the flower wonder effect in the released version, the beta wonder sound effect is still there just a lot quieter at the end

[@metaknightjudgesyoursins4710]

2:21 I’m now imagining a universe where Mario Wonder used more of the older designs BESIDES Yoshi. A more reddish haired Peach would’ve been cool as all hell

[@davidthecommenter]

redhead peach would have been really cool to see but i think it would have messed with daisy being playable

[@newsuperbowserworld]

I’m pretty sure she was never a readhead in any official artwork besides the Super Show.

[@davidthecommenter]

@@newsuperbowserworld and the rest of the mario animated shows, but there is the SMB2 boxart which has a sort of orange going on. there is also her sprites in SMB 1-3

[@newsuperbowserworld]

@@davidthecommenter her smb1-3 sprites don’t have blonde hair because the palettes couldn’t have 5 colors. The box arts for each game show her with blonde hair.

[@sonic_production]

frontiers and wonder now share something together

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

The beta is cooler?

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

I mean the beta of mario wonder has better model in my opinion, theres always somethint cooler in the betas that never come to the final, like frontiers amazing visuals and the true kronos island

[@legendarysands4892]

Love how everyone is saying knuckles wonder lol

[@YourAverageNerd06]

Bro how did I find you again?

[@TheLegendSizzle]

SONIC EXE ❤️

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

Did I say Knuckles Wonder? I mistyped, I meant Wade Wonder, a wonderful installment in the Wade Whipple franchise.

[@H0PPITY.]

I think Wade Whipple 3 & Knuckles is still better than this

[@PilaCiu]

Riley, it's not really "lost" if they have the prototype and are showing it off. The better way to say it is "Mario Wonder prototype you can't play", but views matter.

[@SFproductions1]

yeah......

[@PilaCiu]

@@SFproductions1 I completely get you though, I would also love to grow my channel at some point.

[@jackatk]

I think Mario’s design in the final game is a great mix between the modern design and the old one! I’m not too bummed that they didn’t stick with the beta model

[@LilCosmosYT]

it would've been cool if we could hear "WONDEEEEER" with the sound off badge equipped

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

Nice video on Knuckles Wonder.

[@Moonlow.]

Yoshi DOES use his older design. So they probably created the Yoshi model sometime when the early Mario model existed.

[@SFproductions1]

Oh yeah that makes sense!

[@ssg-eggunner]

I wonder why they changed Mario and the others and not Yoshi Altough I'm glad they didn't change Yoshi

[@Cerberus589]

Can I just say that your content is f***ing goated?!

[@SFproductions1]

Thanks man I appreciate that

[@JuhoSprite]

love the boxart looking design

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

I wanna know what beta sonic supertars is, it could be interesting

[@Kakkemans]

Im almost done with a 100% of smbw

[@user-ft2vo8ph5y]

A NEW SONIC MAINLINE GAME HAS BEEN TREADMARK !!!( source by Midori). I can tell more information about the game but I can tell it's a spinoff about the one of the beloved characters in sonic the hedgehog 🦔 but I can tell about where it will be announced at summer game fest 2024 !!! BUT I CAN IMPLY ABOUT THE CHARACTER ( 🥈➕🦔) and I forget to tell the game will be made in unreal engine 5 it will be a action adventure game and open world ( puzzle - platformer) and the game is in development !!!

[@starbutter2730]

The older Mario design is giving me a vibe of classic Mario oh nvm i just saw the part where you mention that, its not just me haha

[@mariochicasg]

Can Super Mario Bros. Wonder get a DLC for some of its unused content? And Mario’s unused model in the Beta looks nostalgic.

[@the_PROcrastination_gamer]

Wow this is actually fire

[@matijalenic2923]

0:19 ........ WONDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@knowingjordankid]

Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks like a whole different game and I’m so happy the beta was not the final product for the game. Great video SF!

[@fg87sonic]

I like the animation from the beta

[@Jelly_shy_guy_man]

Nah I’m pretty sure it’s post to be the wonder affect with the Nickelodeon slime, because they both titlt, and wouldn’t there be a spike ball there, or just a ball, I feel like that’s a defining feature of it 3:47

[@sebastiancendoya7854]

Mario on the beta versión looks like the 64 era renders and i love it!

[@ssg-eggunner]

64 era Mario is actually based on Yoichi Kotabe Mario in fact! But it was based on the Post 1992 iteration and was jank, whilst wonder beta is based on pre-92'

[@victoralanhernandez6894]

Beta mario looks like the orginal box covers of mario design in the 80s

[@kingknight387]

Dude they need surfing mario for the next game I would love that

[@captainseg]

I remember seeing the first trailer for this game and saw Mario's design. Immediately, my head said "Oh my god Nintendo went back to the SMB 3 design. That's awesome!"

[@DaysOfOId]

This video was fire ngl. What would be fucking incredible is if Nintendo announced Mario Wonder DLC at the June direct and included the beta-version levels, wonder effects and art-style. What do you think the probability of such a beautiful thing happening is lol?

[@SFproductions1]

I would say 0% lol i would love wonder dlc but i think theyre more focused on another game atp

[@lobians]

6:02 kinda reminds me of the sonic 3 beta intro (with surfboard)

[@caseykm1405]

Yo this game looks good!

[@SFproductions1]

WAIT ITS YOU! I saw your vids man they're top notch!

[@caseykm1405]

@@SFproductions1 oh thanks bro i appreciate it! Vice versa 🫡

[@NuiYabuko]

A beta is just that, a beta. Nothing was lost, nothing went unused, because that's how development works.

[@SFproductions1]

Yeah I know I just had to make a good title

[@Bob-rf1nw]

Maybe the 8 bit wonder was cut because characters like Peach would need totally different head shapes, making most characters play different?

[@cyber-thundr_]

2:25 ooh I love that design of Mario, why the change?

[@Tobiazinth3]

It was probbaly because people wouldn't recognize him as well.

[@derschlong2370]

Very Cool video

[@FoxyGamesYT]

would be cool if developers would add beta stuff in a free update or a cheap dlc

[@That1One-Guy]

Mario’s design although cool has kinda become generic, seeing he’s older more cartoonier design buying considered gives me enough hope that we might see that old design back.

[@ssg-eggunner]

If they're gonna make wonder 2 in a similar fashion as galaxy 2, I hope they revisit the earlier art direction

[@royaponte1980]

What if they bring back the beta mario model for a limited time dlc or something

[@alexzaharia2867]

Bro is the new Beta 64, You Have My Subscribe From me

[@SouthyTR]

I think the guy shouting wonder is in the final game its just really hard to hear

[@user-ro1cp1ot5c]

The wonder voice is in the game but it is very silent

[@PandaSlothProductions]

not more lost media 😭😭

[@rodrigomarcondes5857]

I don't remember where i read it, but i think the giant 8bit mario head got removed because instead of offering an interesting challenge the player would just rush to the end to avoid being eaten by those enemies. Also, i don't agree that one of the wonder effects should be turning the game into 8 bit or 16 bit, we already got that with mario maker and i completely done with the nostalgia pandering

[@ChargedTheHedgehog]

3:31 why do they love SLIDER (sm64) so much. I do to but in like every game it’s the in some way shape or form

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

Wdym slider? The slide or the music

[@ChargedTheHedgehog]

@@SonicTheBlueBlur15 the song. That’s what I put In parenthesis

By the way how many hours did you spent in both Mario Wonder and Sonic Superstars and which one did you like more and prefer to play every single day of the week Please reply

[@jamesdeanrodriguez1791]

[@RufioTheThird]

1:55 What the hell are you talking about? User interfaces are extremely important. I know you had no ill intent, but calling it "just standard white text and straight lines" is kind of an insult towards the amount of work that is put into the experience of easier navigation for a video game. Since you're a Sonic fan, it's the difference between base Sonic Mania and Sonic Mania on mobile's UI

[@SFproductions1]

Never said they weren't important I'm just saying stylizing it and making it look pretty is probably one of the last things they worry about as evidenced by well... its bland look in the beta

[@RufioTheThird]

@@SFproductions1 I owe you an apology. I read in-between the lines and made an irrational comment because as someone who studies InDesign and Photoshop, I take this very seriously and made a remark I otherwise wouldn’t, so I apologise for that and thank you for clearing things up for me! Also, you bring the hard work these devs put into a beta we cannot play to light, for your viewers to see and that’s amazing. I admire that
