 ==Early ideas==
-The game was conceived as simply ''Super Mario Strikers 2'' until the first public reveal of the game during the "Wii Prove Our Promise" keynote in August 2006. The initial logo is very similar to that from the previous game, although Mario's outfit has blue highlights. Ball launchers were an early aesthetic design, where they assisted characters performing [[Mega Strike]]s by catapulting multiple balls into the air. They were removed for requiring a longer animation sequence and was deemed as an unnecessary detail.

They were removed for requiring a longer animation sequence and was deemed as an unnecessary detail.
 Concept arts show Toads in mechs that would have decorated at the perimeter of the stages, acting as security and other tasks. Additionally, one Toad has appeared to take control of a Blooper. They were removed due to technical limitations, although a Toad controlling a Blooper appeared in [[The Wastelands]], albeit much less detailed than in the concept art.

 [[The Sand Tomb]] was shown to be much more detailed and the setting was more canyon-like with hints of jungle in the background.
+Many characters were considered to be included, although they were scrapped as they did not fit the overall vision of the game.<ref>@TheBigWinMike (February 18, 2022).

 [[File:MSC Pre-release Fire Storm.png|thumb|Early screenshot of the game. The gadgets, as well as the icons of captains' Super Abilities looked very different.]]
-Screenshots showed that the aesthetic of the gadgets located on the top of the screen, would have a more futuristic design, featuring the captains' emblem of the teams, while the items appeared in other gadgets. Later, gadgets had a rusted appearance, still showing the captain's emblem of the team, which they were replaced by the faces of the captains lately. The [[Super Ability|Super Abilities]] of the captains were rendered as particular icons for each one (e.g.: The Super Ability of [[Mario]], [[Super Mario!]] was shown as a red letter M; [[Bowser]]'s [[Fire Storm!]] was shown as a [[fireball]]).
