Forgive me if these are common knowledge. I found the images here: http://www.disgruntleddesigner.com/chrisc/secret.html
These seem to be very early images. The map screen brings SMB3 to mind for some reason. My guess has to be that they were using the raccoon suit as a temporary thing until they decided what costume they wanted Mario to have. There's also a screenshot of an early Equinox that I thought FO might find interesting. I can't spot the changes since I haven't played the final version, but they mentioned that the character looks odd.
