Unused Content

Version 02 of Marcher uses the same graphics as the regular game, however the ✚ controls are disabled.

There is an unused version of Marcher with a more detailed Practice, involving techniques used in Marcher 2, such as quick face turns, or face turns while marching. The real game itself plays like Marcher 2, but using the graphics from Marcher. This sequence therefore makes use of the regular Squadmates' pointing animations and Sarge's fast left-face turn voice clip, which go unused otherwise. Unused sprites and animations for the pointing also exist for the Space-Rabbits and in the Marcher version. Sarge additionally has a different take on the line 全体 (Zentai^?), and a separate full set of voice clips in a different voice.

The sprite for the Squadmates has the helmet separated from the head for the front-facing head. The head itself has red hair similar to that seen in Staff. In Marcher in Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade), the Squadmates have orange hair instead. In the regular version in Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade), there are also unused sprites of red pigtails.

The Space-Rabbits have alternate sprites for marching, which are posed closer to what the Squadmates look like while marching. Aside from having their own pointing animations, they also have what appears to be a dance similar to one they perform in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, and what appears to be them looking upward. The Squadmates, Sarges and Space-Rabbits all have an unused animation for clapping.

Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Unused Content

The unused Sarge voice clips for fast turns and alternate 全体 (Zentai^?) exist in Rhythm Heaven Megamix as well, remaining in Japanese in all languages.

The Squadmates once again retain the unused pointing and clapping animations. Additionally, there's two animations of the Squadmates doing face turns. While the assembled animations were used in Rhythm Tengoku, the separated head and body are used in Rhythm Heaven Megamix instead.
