| This is a list of pre-release and unused content for the game ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''.
| |
| <!--DO NOT ADD "WALUIGI WAS PLANNED [...]" THE SOURCE IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH-->
| |
| ==Early builds==
| |
| ===E3 2010 demo===
| |
| *[[3DS Rock Rock Mountain|Rock Rock Mountain]] and [[3DS Mario Circuit|Mario Circuit]] did not have [[Glide Ramp]]s.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9Y4H9y-5iQ&ab_channel=NintendoWorldReport YouTube - Mario Kart 3DS Footage with Music (Real Audio and Music from the upcoming 3DS title)].</ref>
| |
| *Trick ramps were not implemented, as [[trick]]s were not yet confirmed to make a return from ''Mario Kart Wii''. As a result, both [[Wuhu Loop]] and Mario Circuit did not have ramps seen in the final release.
| |
| *The pipes at Mario Circuit had different colors.
| |
| *The Dash Panels were rainbow-colored, similarly to ''Mario Kart Wii''{{'}}s Dash Panels.
| |
| *The design layout of Rock Rock Mountain was different, having a few more trees than in the final release.
| |
| *Races in the demo were two laps instead of three.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===E3 2011 demo=== | | ==Beta Elements== |
| *In the item roulette, the [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] was shown with wings, despite lacking them when in use. In the final version, the wingless version is shown.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVFvu8AdTMc&ab_channel=NintendoWorldReport YouTube - Mario Kart 7 - 3DS Demo Track 1 with Audio (E3 2011)]</ref>
| | In the E3 2010 demo, [[Rock Rock Mountain]] and [[Mario Circuit#Mario Kart 7|Mario Circuit]] didn't have a ramp where the glider could be activated. Also there were no ramps because Nintendo didn't confirm that [[trick]]s would appear in the game. The demo also showed all the items from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' (excluding the [[Thunder Cloud]], the [[Mega Mushroom]] and the [[Pow Block]]) and the [[Spiny Shell (Mario Kart)|Spiny Shell]] with wings. |
| *Several ramps in Rock Rock Mountain were not present. Additionally, there were more coins in the first turn before the cave, and the coin placement near the boulder area was different.
| |
| *The coin placement in the pier of [[3DS Cheep Cheep Lagoon|Cheep Cheep Lagoon]] was different, and there were no [[Sidestepper]]s in the cave.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D36QV-aNpI&ab_channel=NintendoWorldReport YouTube - Mario Kart 7 Demo Track 2 with Audio 3DS (E3 2011)]</ref>
| |
| *[[3DS DK Jungle|DK Jungle]] had many slight differences. For instance, there was an additional [[DK Barrel]] in the second turn leading to the red bouncy flower, and the area with tree roots inhabited the first row of Item Boxes instead of coins. The bridge after the [[Tiki Goon]]s lacked guardrails. There were also no [[Frogoon]]s in the later jungle area, and the [[Screaming Pillar|Screaming Pillars]] seen towards the end of the track were motionless. As for the music, the organ heard in the right ear was noticeably louder.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H82Srqie2kk&ab_channel=NintendoWorldReport YouTube - Mario Kart 7 Track 3 (Donkey Kong Country Track) (E3 2011) 3DS]</ref>
| |
| *Many sound assets were taken from ''Mario Kart Wii'', including the music for the character-selection menu, the "final lap" stinger, race finish, and the results screen. The music for finishing a race was again reused for the final standings screen, though pitched up.
| |
| *The screen showing the final standings displayed a placement number on a circle, rather than a trophy.
| |
| *There were no [[Wiggler]]s in [[Wii Maple Treeway]].<ref>[https://youtu.be/p1JJPkd4Q28?t=1413 YouTube - Nintendo Press Conference E3 2011]</ref>

| *[[Donkey Kong]] was in [[Bowser]]'s place on the character selection screen.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_ecesGCI3U&ab_channel=TiLMENDOMiNATiON YouTube - Gamescom 2011 - Mario Kart 7 - Over 7 Minutes exclusive footage マリオカート]</ref>
| | A kart frame named '''Bullet Duck''' was mentioned on several websites, but was not seen in the game. Also a kart called '''Banana Buggy''' was mentioned, which is likely an early name for the [[Bolt Buggy]], because this kart is called ''Banana Buggy'' in many languages other than English (excluding Spanish, in which case it is called the Banana Kart).<ref>http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/28176</ref> |

| ===Nintendo Press Conference 2011 Footage===
| |
| *The [[Lucky Seven]] did not have a checkered border. Said border is present in the final version.<ref>[https://youtu.be/aoPFoydv2-4?t=130 YouTube - Mario Kart 7 Interviews [Nintendo 3DS Conference 2011 Japan<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</ref>
| |
| *At the start of Lap 3, [[Lakitu (Mario Kart referee)|Lakitu]]'s sign said "Final Lap"; in the final version, it says "3/3".
| |
| *Kalimari Desert had more cacti in it.
| |
| *The playable [[Lakitu]]'s voice clips were originally taken from ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' (where he was voiced by [[Dex Manley]]). In the final game, he has new voice clips provided by [[Tadd Morgan]].
| |
| *Coins were generally much more plentiful. This can be seen during the credits of the final release, where there are more coins than usual on the first turn of Mario Circuit.
| |
| *[[List of sponsors in Mario Kart Wii#Bullet Oil|Bullet Oil]] sponsors were seen in [[3DS Daisy Hills|Daisy Hills]], but were replaced by [[Princess Daisy]] ones in the final game.
| |
| | |
| ==Unused data==
| |
| *The [[Fake Item Box]] and [[Mega Mushroom]] have unused leftovers in the final game.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Mario_Kart_7#Unused_Items</ref><ref>https://4drclanforum.com/threads/mario-kart-7-trashed-items.1068/</ref>
