*In the level [[Hotel Horror]], the lights originally had no faces.

*The Mayu Birds of the level [[Arabian Night]] had four fangs rather than two in the beta version.
*The room of the first boss, [[Spoiled Rotten]], did originally neither contain the TV set with the two [[Nintendo GameCube]]s nor the kitchen equipment in the background. Spoiled Rotten also had shorter teeth, no tongue and shorter leafs during its angry form. The white parts of its doll were yellow.

*During the fight against the boss [[Cractus]], the [[Firefly]] already appeared at the beginning, while it is only seen in the final game when Wario has been turned into [[Zombie Wario]]. The two ladders in the room were not found, and plants of unknown purpose were hanging from the ceiling instead. The screen-shot also doesn't show the timer. It did possibly not start until Wario cracked Cractus's plant pot. A more minor difference is that the ground of the room didn't have the indentations in its center like in the final version.
*A small room was removed from the end of the level [[Palm Tree Paradise]]. It would have been accessable by [[Wario Land 4#Wario's Moves|ramming]] the wall behind the [[Frog Switch]]. The room itself has programmed sprite layouts for each game mode. [[Wario Land 4#Game Modes|normal]] mode includes a single [[Totsumen]] with a [[Giant Diamond]] at the end. The number of [[:Category:Wario Land 4 Enemies|enemies]] increases to five on [[Wario Land 4#Game Modes|S-hard]] mode, and the Giant Diamond is removed.

===Debug Level===
[[File:WL4 Beta-Debug Level Section.PNG|frame|The debug level in ''Wario Land 4''.]]
Before creating full levels, the [[Wario Land 4/Staff|game's developers]] prepared a simple debug level with lots of different obstacles. This area allowed them to test Wario's [[Wario Land 4#Wario's Moves|moves]] and abilities as they were programmed, to prevent future problems with gameplay. The level itself is quite simple is design, with a blue background, and black blocks with dotted outlines for flooring. Several slopes, blocks of varying sizes, [[Coin (Wario Land 4)|coins]] and [[:Category:Wario Land 4 Enemies|enemies]] are found throughout the level. Wire mesh can be seen in some rooms as part of the background. Many [[Door]]s are also included to move between different rooms.
