Contents.Unused Assets TV Station End ScreenIn the US version, a texture file can be found called 'uiclearbgzero' which depicts a seldom oddly colored monkey standing in a room of placeholder textures alongside 4 short cylinders. It can be inferred that this was meant to be shown to players after beating the TV Station stage at the very beginning of the game, as the final version just cuts straight to Aki. It is also in the same folder as all of the other level end screens, and guess that it was going to be the TV Station stage because of the short cylinders likely being weirdly textured tables, and the file named 'zero', which is the common name for that of the TV Station stage in other places in the files.Simian Cinema MenuIn the US version in files for the Simian Cinema movie maker, there are multiple unused files for UI designs. Some textures appear to have used the same style as the level names, others use the same font with a different palette. It is unknown for sure how much the UI changed but early designs seemed to be a lot less stylized.Ape Escape 2 LeftoversIn the files for the simian cinema (along with other places as well), an Ape Escape 2 texture can be found which consists of Jimmy's life icon, a coin from that game, the Slingback Shooter reticle, and even menu icons.Gallery.

When you first play Crumbling Castle in the original Ape Escape, instead of being given a specific monkey quota, you are given one instruction - 'Catch Specter!' You spend the entire level exploring this tricky castle, trying to make your way to the room with Specter in. However once you get there, Specter just teleports away and you have to fight a knight instead! The 'Catch Specter!'

Instruction makes this seem like the final level - however after the knight fight, there are still three more levels before Monkey Madness.
