Parabeetle grassland? That combined with the different World 1 map on the SMB3 box developed my fascination with early versions of games.

From what I recall, there were a few early promo screenshots with the exact same Mario position (and maybe the exact same status bar) which would seem to indicate that they might have just been mockups and not necessarily something based on a playable level.

Early Mega Man X

And if I knew japanese, early Mega Man Zero, before they changed the main villain to be a copy of X instead of the original. There’s no known build of this, but they’ve been very vocal about this change being a rewrite very late in development. I’m very curious of the writing a build in earlier stages would have.

I loved Mother 3 and graphically it was very stylish, but I always wonder how atmospheric it would have looked as Mother 64. Especially when you consider how sarursted GBA games were. That generations games could feel amazing, like Majora's Mask and a ton more. Also GBA sound was a little weird.

Tezuka passed away in 1989. It wasn't that.
According to some sources, it's because Tezuka's son (who was taking charge of his dad's legacy) ended up wanting to cancel it, not much details are available really.
My own suspicion is that his son was very wary of handling his dad's IPs since the grudge with Disney was very recent/was still going (Tezuka's family suing Disney for Lion King, and losing).
Either way it's a shame that game never came to be.

Generally, it's because Capcom made X6 and, rather than simply ignore it, they reworked the plot to fit with the ending of that game.
Though, I recall hearing somewhere that the whole "X is the villain" angle may have been dropped earlier or for another reason.

Back in those days I reckon it would've only made sense to fake a screenshot out of real assets. Oftentimes level graphics would be completed long before any decent looking levels were made, so the people making the mock screenshots was likely the level designers themselves.

Memes like this should die, there was no intention for the "FFVII" to be on anything other than the Sony PlayStation®. Pre-production ideas where being written up by people like Nomura for a "Final Fantasy game" for the SNES but they were put on hold as all team resources got allocated to Chrono Trigger, the meme mock up image that Nomura probably did in his lunch break comes from that and that's all it is, there is no game or any thing apart from a shitty image. They then made the Final Fantasy 6: The Interactive CG Game tech demo soley for the Siggraph conference in Los Angeles to show off what the could do with new Silcon Graphics computers, they then experimented to see how capable the N64 devkit with SGI onyx was at running it, which it wasn't. The decision was made in early 1996 that Final Fantasy VII, the actual game, was to be developed for Sony's PlayStation and so every production choice for the game was developed for PlayStation. There is no "Nintendo FFVII"

I wonder if that studio would bother to show off what they have though, or if any current employees would even know of it. This isn't retro but there was a case with Volition and how they officially made Saints Row PSP free once some new employee stumbled across it in a dev kit. I wonder if we'll be as lucky.

I'd love to be able to play the (probably lost forever) early version of Ghouls'n Ghosts which had two exclusive levels that were removed because they ran out of memory.

One of those levels was the sunken ship graveyard which was finally used in Super Ghouls'n Ghosts. It would be amazing to see that level with the original arcade graphics.

If you just want to play it the sequel did come out, just not on the NES - it was originally on various home computers and later got ported to the Game Boy Color (in a double pack with the original). I presume the latter is closest to what the NES version would have been as the port was by Kemco.

Nope. As the post says, it was done only for the original release of Ghouls 'n Ghosts for arcade, but finally removed because of memory constraints. When they were creating Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, they decided to bring back that level (which is possible the most memorable of the whole game):

Having Ghouls 'n Ghosts such fantastic art it would have been great seeing that level with the original arcade assets.

It's always neat to see how games change during development on the way to final, even if those changes are small. For me, playing a pre-final prototype is as close as replaying a favorite game again for the first time, with some of the suspense of not knowing what exactly comes next. Sometimes it's like seeing old preview screenshots come to life, a bit surreal.
