It was most definitely a mock up. Maybe done on a computer, maybe a one screener dummied out in the final game. The zone and assets were never made where never made though beyond that little screen.

A long time ago the guy who developed the Super Metroid editor SMILE made it so that the editor would refuse to edit 'locked' games. When he released the Redesigned hack, he locked it so people couldn't use his editor to fuck with shit. I reversed engineered the lockout mechanism (he changed some non essential bits early in memory) and posted it on forums. He got all pissed because I released his secret and enabled people to hack his hack. He changed the lockout in later versions.

I never did understand his reaction. Dude was an ass.
