The source code for ''Super Mario Advance'' was found in the {{wp|2020 Nintendo data leak}}. Within it are unused voice clips of [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Toad]], including individually announcing titles. This indicates that tentative titles for the game were ''Super Mario USA: Advance'' for the Japanese market and ''Super Mario Bros. Deluxe 2'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 2 Deluxe'' for the international market. This seems to suggest that the game was intended to be a sequel to ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]''.<ref>Marionova64 (July 30, 2020). [https://twitter.com/Marionova64/status/1288818364132057093 Super Mario Advance Unused Title Screen Voicelines]. ''Twitter''.

==Early builds==
An early screenshot of the game, shown on a GBA on the cover of ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' Vol 143, shows one of the two backgrounds in [[World 5-2 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 5-2]] has a brightened color palette like all the others; in the final game, these retain their original color palette.

The game's graphics data contains smaller versions of the slot machine icons and two unused [[vegetable]]s, which also went unused in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''. A mouse and a blue [[Cobrat]], both intended for [[Mouser]]'s and [[Tryclyde]]'s boss intro respectively, were also found in the game's data.
