Despite sharing the same development studio, the Game Boy version of Wayne's World has completely different level designs, despite using the assets from the NES game. Also, it has a pretty good chiptune version of Bohemian Rhapsody, even better than the SNES version.

Unused Text

Several bits of unused text intended for various points in the game. Included with each are the addresses where they are stored. They appear to be copied from the NES version.

0x2D9ED - Was to be used after the first part of stage 1. Also used in the NES version.

THIS IS SURE WEIRD.
I SEEM TO BE SO
SMALL. IS THIS A
DREAM? I LOOK LIKE
A VIDEO GAME
CHARACTER.
EXCELLENT.

TOP TEN THINGS
GARTH'S DAD BEEV
SAYS:
10) HEY YOU KIDS,
BUY SOMETHING OR
LEAVE.
9) ARE YOU GONNA
BUY THAT MAGAZINE?
THIS ISN'T A
LIBRARY.
8) EITHER YOU EMPTY
OUT YOUR POCKETS OR
YOU ARE BANNED FROM
THE STORE.
7) SHOULDN'T YOU
KIDS BE IN CLASS?
6) EAT YOUR JUNK

BEEV.  I'M A BIG
DWEEB.

0x2DD2F - To be used if running into Stacy on the Gasworks roof. Stacy does not appear in this version, but graphics for her still remain in the game. Once again, from the NES version.

A GUN RACK?
SHYEAH, RIGHT.  I
DON'T EVEN OWN A
GUN, LET ALONE MANY
GUNS THAT WOULD
NECESSITATE HAVING
AN ENTIRE RACK.
ARE YOU MENTAL?
GET THE NET!

The preceding dialogues are versions of those that were used in the NES version. The rest are unused entirely:

0x2DF18 - For after finding Cassandra in stage 2.

I AM ABOUT TO ENTER
A DREAM THAT
RELATES TO THE
PLIGHT OF ALL YOUNG
MEN AND WOMEN
CHASING AFTER THE
THINGS THAT THEY
WANT IN LIFE BUT AS
YET DO NOT KNOW HOW
TO CATCH THEM!

SHE WILL BE MINE.
OH YES.  SHE WILL
BE MINE.

0x2E0B9 - Likely to have been part of the dialogue preceding stage 2.

HEY GARTH, LET'S GO
GO TO GASWORKS, THE
TOTALLY EXCELLENT
HEAVY METAL BAR
 
I HEAR THAT AN
AWESOME BAND IS
PLAYING TONIGHT.

0x2E270 - Dialogue for an unused ending scene. The final uses only alternating screens of Wayne with the player's final score and the credits.

EXCELLENT "MEGA-
HAPPY" ENDING. WELL,
THAT'S ALL THE TIME
WE HAVE FOR OUR
GAME.  SO GOOD
NIGHT AND PARTY ON.
 
    PARTY ON WAYNE.
 
PARTY ON GARTH.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
HOW LONG DO WE HAVE
      TO STAY HERE?
 
TILL THEY TURN OFF
THE GAME BOY.

Hidden Areas

Level 2

Use the platforms at the start to reach the upper level and keep going right until you see an amplifier with an "E" item on it. Do not pick it up, and jump on top of the amplifier. Pause the game and enter Up, Select, Up, A, Left, B, A, Select, Down, A, Right, Down, Select and you should hear a sound. Make sure the "E" icon is visible on the HUD and now you can pick up the item. Make your way to the boss, but don't defeat it. Instead knock off enough discs so you can jump over it and you'll find a secret area has opened up behind the boss.

Donut Shop

In the Donut Shop bonus stage following Level 2, collect all but three of the donuts which are on the circular coffee tables. If done correctly, you'll fall through the floor and into a secret tunnel with a variety of items. Walking to the right of the tunnel will end the level.

Level 9

If you look carefully, you can see manholes on the ground in this level. Jump on the first one seven times to fall through, go to the left and pick up the one donut and make your way back up. Continue the level normally, until you find the last manhole just before the level exit. Jump on it and you'll fall on top of a crate, drop down from it and stand "inside" the crate, pause the game and enter Down, Up, A, Left, Down, Up, A, Left. This opens up a secret garage area to the right, with unique tiles not seen elsewhere in the game. Using the free movement cheat you reach another car that cannot otherwise be seen.

But that's not all! While here, entering any of the following cheats will display a secret screen and take you to the next level. Johan and Evie can be seen in the above secret pictures, so it's fair to assume the other two are also friends of the programmer.

Unreachable Items

In level 9 there are barely visible manholes that you can break through by jumping on them repeatedly, leading you to a lower part of the stage containing various items. However, there is one part of the lower area that contains some extra lives but is blocked off on both sides and there is no manhole above it, making it impossible to reach without the use of the Fly cheat mentioned above, since it allows you to go through the walls in your way.
