On The Ball (SNES) Gameplay

1st Stage, Beginner mode. This is a really old game that wasn't very popular yet it was incredibly fun. The basic principle is you have to guide your ball from the start to goal by rotating the map, also you need to avoid obstacles on the way down or you lose time.

Well actually, this used one stationary background that rotated smoothly, whereas Sonic 1's special stage used separate sprites for each angle of the rotation, this made the rotation less smooth and more rigid than on the SNES.

I believe what you are talking about is the game Marble Madness.

Mode 7 is the 8th (because they're numbered 0-7) mode for background layer manipulation. It defines a single, scalable, rotatable layer. I'm pretty confident that's what we're seeing here, but would certainly welcome correction. Super Mario Kart & F-Zero used mode 7 to make it appear as though your vehicle was racing through turns even though it actually was fixed in place while the track moved around you. For it's time, it was a pretty cool effect/illusion I think.
