    9:03 the course is named "donkey_course" because it was written over an early version of DK Pass in the final game, in the Kiosk demo, it's just called "pinball_course"

    As a MKDS modder and prototype explorer back in the older days this course along with the proto Yoshi statue in Delfino Square really fueled creation. Thank you swanky for telling everyone the memories us people experienced long ago!

    Since this was originally a "Luigi themed stage", I'm guessing it was suppose to fit the gambling motif Luigi has in New Super Mario Bros/Super Mario 64 DS in those game's Mini-game areas.
    Card Dealing Luigi haunts us all.

    The beta / unused Mario Kart DS tracks, items, features, etc always fascinated me. I had a bunch of beta Mario Kart DS roms on my R4 back in the day just to tinker and explore.
    Everyone called that early version of the course "Luigi's Cookie Pinball"

      Waluigi is what makes the course special, if there was no waluigi then it would just be a fun pinball track with funky music instead of a fun pinball track with funky music including Waluigi

  • @LandonEmma
    @LandonEmma Před rokem +28

    there are no invisible walls in the prototype version, so if you go the the right after you turn left from when you get to the top, you can go off the road and go to the place where the roundabout would be in the final version, which still counts your lap, it's simple and saves time.

    The “shortcut” at 10:45 is likely the Ball Return when you lose your ball much like a real pinball machine.
    Was probably removed due to it being frustrating as you’d easily be losing time/the race because of it.
    Sometimes being too real isn’t fun.

    Mario Kart DS was my first ever Mario Kart game and, thanks to my Action Replay, it’s also one of, if not the first video game in which I learned more about beta versions. I had the chance to play beta versions of this track, and of my personal favorite, Dokkan Course, many many times.
    That’s probably one of the reasons I’m so passionate about the development of video games, nowadays.

  • @SuperGameCube

    The donkey_course name of the unused variant in the final is a simple mistake on Nintendo's part.
    In the actual MKDS prototype that beta version of Waluigi Pinball is under pinball_course, and donkey_course is a prototype of DK Pass.
    There never was any Donkey King Pinball.
    That simple mistake is the only reason why all 3 variants of Waluigi Pinball are in the files of the final game.
    Otherwise, we'd just have the earliest version, and the final version Waluigi Pinball, plus an early version of DK Pass
    And yes, we do have prototypes of MKDS. Months before the release of the final game Nintendo released two demos that pre-date the final release by months.
    You can easily download them too. Not to mention that the US version of the Demo is one of the most common and easy to find video game prototypes out there.
    They printed multiple copies of it to send out to stores.
    This is what the real donkey_course looks like:

    Waluigi wasn't only associated with Dirt, like Wario in Mario Kart : Double Dash!!, but obviously Mechanised Piranha Plant, like we can see in the Waluigi Stadium, a Reference to Mario Party 3 where he is associated to Piranha Plant as well. There's also Fire Balls like we can see in the Bowser Castles, but I guess you just miss that point as well...
