This is a list of pre-release and unused content for the game Mario Kart 64.
Early builds
The working title of this game was Super Mario Kart R (the "R" stands for "Rendered"). Kamek was originally intended to be one of the playable characters, but ended up being replaced by Donkey Kong. The Character Select screen was also different, the characters faced the player, and Kamek can be seen in Donkey Kong's space. Boos from Banshee Boardwalk had also a different look, the HUD was different from the final version, and item boxes were also completely black with colored question marks on them. The Cape Feather, which was in Super Mario Kart, was also intended to be included, as seen in a certain screenshot of Super Mario Kart R. This particular screenshot can been seen on the back of the packaging of the Nintendo 64 system.

An early build of Moo Moo Farm. Notice the use of the Japanese names for the track and the Mushroom (Kinoko) Cup. Also notice the track and cup name in the unused corner, instead of the level map.
The 1st through 4th icons face the opposite direction in the final.
Unused Data

It can be enabled with the Gameshark code 8818EDEF 0002 and accessed by pressing the GS button at the title screen. On its content there is a bizarre vertical splitscreen that appears to be unfinished. If the users play in battle mode, on the vertical splitscreen the lap counter can be seen.

The debug menu appears at the title screen.
When going to the bottom of the menu there will be an extra option allowing the player to get all gold cups.
