Yes, Sleeping beauty's DVD had one for the galleries, too. If you meant they would probably be like those "virtual castles" in how they look, maybe you'll be right, but I hope they look a little better and match the original art more, just in 3-D.

Well,
I can tell you about them. But once you post that you have seen them, I will take them down, because I just don't think I should show so much from Disney DVDs for long, even though they're out of print.
EDIT: Maybe I'll take it down
after the DVD comes out and we see the virtual castle.
For Snow White, the first disc opened with the slave of the magic mirror appearing in the castle, but you didn't really explore the castle unless you took a tour, I think. And the tour just showed you what would be on the 2nd disc.
On the 2nd disc, you had the magic mirror floating in the middle of a map of iconic places in the movie, like Snow White's wishing well, the dwarf's mine, and the Queen's dungeon. If you click on the Queen's castle, you see the castle in CGI.

The castle is home to virtual galleries that show concept art, backgrounds, and other art for and from the film. You enter the door Snow White went through when she ran away from the Prince, and you enter a hall. Curtains part, and you find the gallery with a red carpet, pillars, and stained-glass windows featuring characters or things from the film. On the walls is the art in frames.

Even though you can't really go through them like the virtual galleries, in the movie the dungeon and wishing well are part of the castle, so I'll show them to you. They, too, appear in CGI, but for other bonus features.
On Sleeping Beauty's DVD, the main menu of the 1st disc starts by going through the forest as the three fairies (in balls of light) to King Stephen's castle. Doors open and you enter a room with a stained-glass window of the fairies giving Aurora their gifts, which happens to be from the stained-glass window gallery in Disneyland Paris's Sleeping Beauty castle! There is a book that opens, and the pages of it are the menus.

On the 2nd disc, only the gallery has a CGI castle, for the virtual galleries. It just has halls with art framed on the walls, like Snow White's virtual galleries.
And so I hope the new Sleeping Beauty DVD has a lot more than that! And I bet it will, with what they said about it and the Blu-ray technology.
