[[Toad Road]] had a much simpler design. There are no Green Spaces or Mini Star/Mini Ztar Spaces, but there are instead [[Blue Space]]s. [[Mini Star]]s and [[Ztars#Mario Party 9|Mini Ztars]] were only seen in one number, rather than three, five and ten. The unbroken bridge seen in the image is broken in the final game, yet there are still spaces underneath the bridge; it is possible that the spaces on the bridge were event spaces that would cause the bridge to collapse if landed on. The vine is placed near the upper-left corner of the mountain instead of the spiral hill in front of the fort. A [[Lakitu]] is seen above the fort, possibly to symbolize that he is the board's mid-boss. Additionally, on the final board, there are two rock formations on the tops of the mountains that form the letters "MP"; no such rock formations are seen on the original board. | [[Toad Road]] had a much simpler design.

Another earlier design of Toad Road has been found in the game's files. It features three mountains and a different route that the players would take. It has different textures to the final, and at the end, where Wiggler is fought, the artwork of Wiggler from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' is shown. | Another earlier design of Toad Road has been found in the game's files.

Within the .lz file of the captain event tutorial images for the Bob-Omb Factory board, an early image of the zone is leftover, revealing that the board was going to have an entirely different look. The mini-star count is also different, being much less than in the final version. | Within the .lz file of the captain event tutorial images for the Bob-Omb Factory board, an early image of the zone is leftover, revealing that the board was going to have an entirely different look.

The Speed Star Colony also underwent some changes | The Speed Star Colony also underwent some changes. The surface of it was green instead of purple in the earlier version. For the spaces, the longest and shortest paths were one space longer than in the final version. There are also reverse spaces present, which are replaced by dash spaces in the final version. Another difference is that there are blue Mini Star spaces present, which aren't in the final version.<ref name=TCRF/> | ||
An early snapshot of the Bingo Colony can also be found in the same .lz file. The early version had a hazier purple background, with the planets being aligned differently. The board itself had brighter numbers, and the solar arrays were smaller. UI is also visible in the early snapshot, which is not in the final. | An early snapshot of the Bingo Colony can also be found in the same .lz file.

Another early snapshot of a captain event can be found in the .lz file of the captain event tutorial images for Bowser Station. The heart zone underwent major changes, as the heart rocks, platform, arch, and crystals are either not present, or overhauled to a more sci-fi aesthetic. | Another early snapshot of a captain event can be found in the .lz file of the captain event tutorial images for Bowser Station.
