Ok, here's one: What prototypes/betas would you love to play/dissect?
Mine would be Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Unlike many other Nintendo games, a lot of pre-release screens were shown in magazines. So, we got to see a lot of what was eventually cut. Nimbus Land in particular has all sorts of changes, including a meal sequence with Valentina and Luigi. At some point, Princess Peach and Mario were planned to be prisoners in a jail cell. A really early version of Toadofsky's area was found in the final game, and it looks distinctly different from the final's art style. There's a bunch more, but I'll stop there.
