Let’s show off those assets that were only used once in games.
I spent way too long trying to figure out a use for this enemy. Why was it there? Why is there only one in the entire game?!

Ah, the Octoballoon.
Because Nintendo.
In Wario Land 2, Kamukamu are a standard fish enemy that only appear in two rooms throughout the entire game. And that’s the grey cartridge Game Boy version - they were removed entirely from the black cartridge Game Boy Color release!
There’s only one Squishy (squid enemy) in Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, in Moonlight Mansion - Room 17, and it’s in a place the player has to deliberately wait for it to appear.
The Goomba in the shoe in SMB3 appears in only one level (5-3). Early versions of the N.A. release called this the Kuribo’s shoe.
Even if you successfully obtain the shoe as a power-up, it disappears the moment you finish the level.
Fortunately, Nintendo brought it back in various games throughout the years like SMM and as an ice skate variant in SM3DW. It’s always a fun powerup to use.
