Well this rumor is thwarted. I guess the only thing that could prove us wrong would be Nintendo saying the rumor is true, but what are the chances of that?
If I find anyine else spreading this lie, all i have to do is direct him to this thread.
I'm glad we got this over with.

.... Now there's an empty comment there that has no point. Good job. (actually I've reverted the page, but I'm keeping this post here)

Sorry already taken care of, we've had an edit war at Wikipedia over this on both the MK64 and MKDS pages for a few weeks; currently the "trivia" point is put into a comments, warning anyone that adding it back will require a real source to be cited.

The most anybody could find was that the rumor started on GameFAQs.


I actually deleted it from wikipedia in the MK64 section... was that a bad thing to do?

This is all the beta pics we've got so my theory is that Rain bow road was not programmed untill the end. Either that or it was nintendo's "TOP SECRET RACEWAY" that had to be kept secret untill the end.

Well, if they are betas, they didnt change anything between the beta and final version of rainbow road.

All right, hopefully this is the last post of this thread. Here are two beta Pics of MK64 Rainbow Road Beta.





Does it look anything like rainbow road DS? NO! It looks kinda' like... well what do you know... it looks like the final release... other than that weird E in pic one. These pictures are from when the game was called MKR and Donkey kong was a Magikoopa. This should settle it. No beta in the DS. No beta in the 64 rom.

It's not true. There is no beta rainbow road. The only reason I said it is because I read it on wikipedia. I really should go edit that since I can. The only beta level is possibly that battle one Kario mentioned (would you mind posting it please?) but that's it. Now let this thread die in peace.

Ive never seen pictures or heard of a beta Rainbow Road in Mario Kart 64... but if there is one and it was shorter than the final MK64 Rainbow Road, Nintendo should be shot.

And the MKDS thing itself has no evidence to support the claim, aka it's only a rumor that's probably false.

I did some research and the only thing I came up with is that maio kart DS' rainbow road is actually the beta of mario kart 64's rainbow road. This is probably what made Yoshi ask this.

Im 99% sure there is no way to play it. I used to be in the gameshark community big time, and there were plenty of level codes and stuff, I think there may have been one beta battle level that had a code. From what I remember, no beta rainbow road. I also dont remember anyone even saying there was one, or that there were pictures, or even rumors of one. From my point of view, this is the same as asking "Can I get to the Electric Temple in Ocarina of Time?" since it never existed in the first place.

I've never heard of a beta still existing in the rom? This is something worth googling.
Yoshi, do you have any pics or links to any info on this?

That's classic hate causing material right there. To hack it, you need to get a hex editor, and a corrupter, and change random bit's of data until what you want to edit is changed. This is one way, anyway.

There are no patches I know of. I don't even know if the beta rainbow road still exists in our final game.
