These are the beta elements for Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Beta Elements
Birdo was originally going to be a playable character in the game but appears to have been cut out for unknown reasons. Note that because her model wasn't finished properly, Birdo's nose is inverted in the screenshot. Silver the Hedgehog from Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 was seen in the intro of the game, making fans believe that Silver was meant to be playable. Donkey Kong and Jet the Hawk, from Sonic Riders, have also been found to have been planned for the game. These characters appear in the sequel, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Donkey Kong and Silver appear as playable characters, while Jet the Hawk appears as a boss and Birdo a VIP Member.
