The Unused Mario Enemy that Stumped Modders for 11 Years

Special thanks to Aurum! ► / deraurumburger
Super Mario Galaxy has a ton of unused content hiding beneath its surface. Quite literally a horde of objects ranging from maps, to stage elements, to enemies, and everything in-between. The repository of cut content is as vast as the galaxies themselves. But there is a peculiar enemy that once it was discovered, it wasn't really known how it functioned until several years later. This is the story of that enemy: The Dragon Head Flower. And how it eventually was solved.

You know what the head of this thing reminds me of? Poochy from Yoshi's Island, the friendly lovable mutt that helps Yoshi. I think the link between these similarities would have tipped the player off that this thing meant no ill will. However, not everyone has played Yoshi's Island nor know about Poochy, so I can see why new players could be confused if this thing was a threat.

@kristalann5151 2 жыл бұрын

I love Poochy but I didn't know about him until I played Yoshi's Woolly World, I don't think I played Yoshi's island. Or, I remember I had it on the DS, maybe that's a different version? Or also I had it but I didn't finish it all the way through, maybe it's in a later level I didn't play? I don't know. Anyway, I actually thought Poochy was invented in Woolly World before seeing your comment and looking it up.

I don't think that the Dragon Head Flower was cut due to it being replaced, I think it was cut due to it being the exact same, but it would've been used to send Mario in the opposite direction then where he should be going. Think about it, in the files this is labeled as an enemy. Naturally a path would be created to function the exact same as the hole you use the sphere, but it would send you in the opposite direction or into a death plain. I believe it was cut due to it possibly being annoying as not only do you need to balance on a sphere, but then you have this guy over here trying to spit you into an abyss if you get to close.

You perfectly summed up the game's feel! On the other hand, I got over the Star Ball levels some time ago. Considering there's only three, and they're *so* short, are they really bad with a bit of practice? Either way finding out about yet more elements of SMG is pretty cool! Looking at its design as a whole, perhaps the Starball missions wouldn't have had a golf theme at all? (Modders, get on that please!)

@jordanski6828 2 жыл бұрын

I like to think that with the three ball levels having their own distinct themes, certain elements like the ball launchers would've been themed around those levels too. Like if the Melty Molten level had any, they could be giant lava geysers or mini volcanos, and Rolling Gizmo could've had ones that looked like actual springs. Maybe this one could've been put into a more plant/forest based theming? But I guess like Swanky said with this one, it would probably confuse players more if it wasn't a consistent and safe looking object.

@N64Mario 2 жыл бұрын

Some people say that this Dragon Head Flower thing is "cursed" because of it looking "fleshy colored", and because of its eyes where regular piranha plants don't have. But I for one welcome our new Mario plant variant. I think the name is cute as well. Also, I think some of the developers at Nintendo are vorephiles. We have Kirby (thats also pink BTW), Yoshi, giant man eating fish named Cheep Chomp, the giant eel in SM Sunshine. So now we have this unused plant creature? The stuff we find hidden in games that went unfinished is always interesting.

The reason I was thinking it was removed by the time you showed that it was going to do what those launching holes did, I had the exact same theory. Everyone assumed it was an enemy at first glance, you wouldn't instinctively want to move toward it. That being replaced by the holes is a good example of the psychology that goes into game design. The hole is entirely self-explanatory, but this is almost automatically seen as a threat despite being the opposite. Fascinating.

I think a pretty easy way to show players that this thing wouldn't hurt them (assuming it's used alongside the orange holes) would be for one of the holes to launch you directly into it, only for it to catch you and throw you the rest of the way to your destination. The player would notice that it got them where they were going, and did no damage to them in the process.

Like, say, putting it at the end of a slope that was the only path forward, with the next portion of the level floating conspicuously near it. That was the NES Mario games' approach to explaining mechanics.

I agree with your thought of this "enemy" simply existing as a mode of transportation to another part of the stage, and that it was replaced by the hole for the reason you gave. They could have had a sign to explain it though. Or maybe even at the start of the level, pan the camera over to one and explain, before you start, but it's very possibly nobody thought of that. In any case, I think the hole was just much simpler, which is why this "enemy" was removed.

I think it may have also made more sense from a gameplay standpoint to need to roll the ball into a socket to launch it, rather than getting sucked in from a distance. With the dragon head flower, you'd only need to get close enough to get sucked in. It would be easy to even do it by accident. Replacing the flower with a socket that launches you makes the minigame more challenging, requiring you to roll the ball into a precise spot.

Thats the coolest yet most terrifying thing I've ever seen Side note: I used to be terrible at the star ball levels when I was a kid, but I'm good at them now. They aren't that bad, really. And the gimmick doesn't overstay its welcome. It's only used in 3 levels in SMG1. I don't remember how many times it's used in SMG2, but I know it's quite a few more than SMG1. On the topic of motion control gimmicks, which do you prefer, the stupid Fluzzard bird levels from SMG2 or the ray-surfing levels from SMG1? I like the ray-surfing more since you actually have control of what you're doing, since you speed up with the A button instead of having to fly downward by pointing the wiimote at the god damn floor pretty much. You can also just control the turning better in general since the manta ray is pretty responsive to how you turn the wiimote. Fluzzard isn't like that. You try to turn your wiimote, and Fluzzard keeps flying forward pretty much.
