Cut Levels/Mini-Games
By modifying the value which tells the game what stage it's supposed to load (at memory address 0956AE) beyond 16 (Game Completed) and then selecting any level in the Level Select (or setting the value at memory address 095C17 to 6 which automatically forces a reload), it is possible to access several incomplete minigame-type levels. (all mentioned memory address values are in unsigned number format by the way)
Leftover Inventory Items
There are several unused items in the game that can only be accessed by modifying the inventory data, one of which (Climbing Gear .) comes with an unused "INFORMATION" option, though none of these items seem to have any textures assigned to them nor they can actually be interacted with in any way.
Unused Voice Lines
Several voice lines that ended up being unused can be accessed from within the game files. Some examples include:
Kida talking about the missing piece on Inner Atlantis' mosaic
This one can actually still be heard in the game if one was to get Kida prior to repairing the mosaic, though that is not meant to be possible, which would suggest that the level was either meant to play out differently, but was eventually changed after the line has already been recorded, or they intentionally put it in as some sort of an "Easter Egg" (which is pretty unlikely).
Kida is "shut in" (somewhere)
This one is completely unused, and it sounds like the part of the game it was meant to be in is as well.
Kida talking about "Atlantean Machinery"
Perhaps related to the Aktiraks in some way?
Milo talking about a release mechanism's power being out and needing to charge "power crystals"
Sounds like this one comes from an entirely cut (part of a) level.
Unused Menu Options
Loaded into the RAM along with the menu options seems to be extra text for a certain "Level Selector" (which might have been a debug feature) and "Difficulty", which suggests the game was meant to have Difficulty options at some point.
Regional Differences
Apart from the obvious text/voice language changes between the different European releases, there is one distinct difference between them and the North American one. At the second exit of Outer Atlantis (where the last ATLANTIS collectible is for that level), in the North American version the collectible is placed to the left as you come in through the door (to the right of it on the picture below), with the platform made in a way that doesn't allow you to climb back up once you jump down into the water, while in the European releases the collectible is placed above the water, right at the edge of the platform, that's made in a way that allows you to climb back up once you jump down.
