Motocross Championship prototypes
There are currently fifteen prototypes available for this game. In addition to the ones below, there are also prototypes for the 20th of October and the 3rd of November, which I haven't found anything interesting in yet.
-The title screen's bike is slightly different to what the final version has, and there is no "press start button" text.
-Practice mode is called arcade mode.
-Selecting the credits at the main menu will take you to a screen featuring the back of a bike, with the words course selection at the top.
-The track selection screen has some maps in place, but some tracks don't have them yet and just repeat their name instead.
-The picture for the super bike isn't in place yet.
-The passwords don't work yet.
-The super bike has placeholder text over it when trying to select it.
-Races start instantly, without a countdown first.
-During a race, drivers aren't able to hit each other.
-There are four difficulty levels: beginner, novice, amateur and pro.
-Hazards and barriers at the side of the track are different, and there often aren't that many when compared to the final game.
-The arcade mode only consists of one lap.
-When the game is paused, a menu appears that lets you continue or exit. If you exit early on in the race, the game will think you came in first.
