Is this really the first time we've seen that? I seem to remember seeing an image like that in a magazine in the 90s. The checkerboard floor was memorable and made it clear it was a demo mode that didn't make it into the final game.

We saw footage of that mario "128" which was a GameCube demo showing how many entities they could have on screen at once where they were all marios.

There was a fan mod that did the same a long time ago from what I remember.
