Attachment There is an unused 7th stage in PaRappa the Rapper, which seems to be an encore of the final stage where audience members - including PaRappa's rival Joe Chin - come on stage and copy PaRappa's rhymes instead of the other way around. This concept would be used in PaRappa the Rapper 2 as an encore following the final stage's Cool Mode.

J. Langston III's original name during development was J. Langston Popsicle III, or "Popsicle" for short, but had to be changed due to Popsicle being trademarked by Unilever. Multiple lines were spliced to remove "Popsicle", though one was removed and one was re-recorded.

"A criminal suit was filed against Mr. Firebird. He is accused of purposeful wrong-doing and criminal neglect. It is believed that Mr. Firebird's negligence caused Putt-Putt's unfortunate accident earlier today."

▼
Inside the files of SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom, you can find a video from Scooby-Doo! Night of 100 Frights, an earlier game by the same studio, Heavy Iron. It is unknown if this is a leftover from building Bikini Bottom off of 100 Frights' engine, or a cross-promotion that was veto'd by either Warner Bros. or Nickelodeon.

What some may find more interesting, however, is a now-deleted YouTube upload of the unused cutscene colloquially known as the "Cursed YouTube Video" which was based on a corrupted video file and as such featured disorientating, lagging sound; an inaccurate timer for video length; visuals that cut out; and a buffer that would begin at an exact point and continually play regardless of the viewer's internet speed.

Attachment Typically, the tutorial for Vs. Mode in PaRappa the Rapper 2 will play the Awful version of whichever stage has been selected in the background, the Bad version for the Boxy Boy tutorial, and then the Good version for the actual gameplay. The exception to this is Always Love, which has completely different songs used in Vs. Mode instead of its actual Bad and Awful songs, it is unknown why the Vs. Mode Bad and Awful versions are different, with possible theories being the Vs. Mode remixes being scrapped but left in Vs. Mode, or Always Love's actual Bad and Awful remixes being considered unsuited for the Vs. Mode due to being versions of the same song with less instruments instead of a completely different song like on all other stages, leading to the creation of new songs. This mysterious track is also used on the map screen when Always Love is highlighted.

Stage 1 of Um Jammer Lammy was incomplete in the original PlayStation version, not being accessible in either multiplayer or PaRappa's story. With a GameShark code, a US player can access an unfinished version of PaRappa's stage 1, which has no animations and only uses triangle buttons. Stage 1 would eventually be finished for Um Jammer Lammy NOW!, released 9 months after the PlayStation version, with Rammy and PaRappa support.

Stage 1 is the only PaRappa stage to use the instrumental of the Lammy version.

Attachment The files for PaRappa the Rapper contain an empty "Stage 4" directory, meaning that the actual stage 4 is labeled stage 5 internally - concept art shows that General Potter, Sunny Funny's father who only appears briefly in the final game, was supposed to be the missing teacher. Rodney Greenblat does not remember what Potter's stage would've entailed, though Potter would be a prominent character in PaRappa the Rapper 2, albeit still not having his own rap.

Attachment Inside the prototype Xbox version of Pac-Man World Rally, files pertaining to Snoopy from Peanuts and a vehicle for him can be found. While the initial discovery of these files left a lot of mystery over whether they were leftovers from another project or a scrapped crossover, a concept image from World Rally would emerge shortly after revealing Snoopy was indeed planned as a crossover racer.

Smart Bomb Interactive, the developers of Pac-Man World Rally, worked on the game Snoopy vs. the Red Baron around the same time, and a few shared files from that game including placeholder cutscene dialogue can also be found in Pac-Man World Rally's data.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl contains multiple unused announcer lines including:

• Several character names (including characters from Rocko's Modern Life and The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, which were not represented in the base game)
• Item announcement calls which did not end up being used (despite the narrator having used voice clips relating to the items)
• All of the stage names (notably including alternate names for the Slime Time stage in the form of "Double Dare", "Double Dare Stage", and "Double Dare Extreme")
• Perhaps most interestingly, lines relating to a shop feature where the player could buy outfits, characters, moves, and stages. The reveal press release for All-Star Brawl references the ability to "unlock advanced moves", which may be referring to this scrapped feature.

An unused outfit for a "High-Profile DJ" can be found in the files for the Mumbai mission "Chasing a Ghost". It's speculated that a DJ may have been a part of Dawood Rangan's film shoot, but was cut from the final game for unknown reasons.

Interestingly, the outfit also has unique dialogue attached to it (i.e. when civilians go past 47 and comment on his clothes), which were later reincorporated for Berlin's DJ Disguise in Hitman 3.
