Unused sprite from Super Mario Bros. 3An unused golden Cheep Cheep from Super Mario All-Stars

Though first seen in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, the concept of orange-colored Cheep Cheeps was originally meant to be in Super Mario Bros. 3 (as seen on the picture on the right), released 21 years prior, where these enemies would have come in groups of three and swam faster than green ones. While they are technically more of a tan color in the original due to sharing a palette with Goombas, Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 color it orange despite it still being unused. Eep Cheeps also go unused in New Super Mario Bros. 2, though they would function just as they do in the other games they appear in.[2]
