| |
| This is a list of beta elements of the game ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''.
| |
| ==Early builds==
| |
| The game's original name was going to be ''Mario Kart X'' when it was still in development. The designs for [[Standard Kart S]], [[Standard Kart M]], and [[Standard Kart L]] were different, as well as the HUD. [[Boo]] was going to be a playable character, but was dropped in favor for King Boo.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGfWlfkOgdQ]</ref> [[Coconut Mall]] was once called Delfino's Mall{{refneeded}}.

| ==Unused Data==
| |
| When all of the files are extracted from this game, a course called "old_mario_gc_b" is found.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dterLPtM6ok]</ref> It is just like GCN Mario Circuit, the fourth course in the [[Leaf Cup]], but the difference is that there is no [[Chain Chomp]], The [[Piranha Plant]]s are not in [[Warp Pipes]], and the player's icon goes off of the screen as there is no map. There is also another course called "draw_demo".<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHQDE8vzfFw]</ref> It is supposed to look like [[Mario Circuit]], but the pointers which are supposed to signify where to look in the file for the textures miss slightly, resulting in a graphical mess-up. There is no lap data or route data, so [[Lakitu]] will not appear to turn the player around or tell when a lap is completed.
