Mario Kart XXL has a "Demo" and "Play" mode. The cursor is ripped straight from the Super Nintendo game "Uniracers". The title screen in all of it's low-quality Comic Sans glory. It might be possible for him to sell the physical cart on an online auctioning site, but that's also very unlikely seeing how someone could just dump the ROM and then release it online, something that Steven clearly doesn't want. Note: Steven states in his YouTube channel description that he doesn't release ROMs of any of the games he finds, so don't try to ask him for it. Unlike dbxbeat's low-quality Socks the Cat video, this is unintentional as further inspection shows that the rattling is in all of Steven's videos, due to the camera he uses to record videos. The sound quality is rather low, due to the amount of rattling coming from the camera used to record this footage. Word got out that this demo existed in August of 2015 when a YouTube channel dedicated to rare video game prototypes by the name of "Steven Seventyeight" found the cartridge and recorded footage of it being played on a GameCube via the Game Boy Player accessory. This is the only known footage of the game in existence. Mario Kart XXL Nintendo Gameboy Advance Prototype DemoĤ minutes and 25 seconds of gameplay. It's worth noting that this unreleased tech demo is one of the only GBA games to ever make use of multiple Mode 7 layers. Both Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and the Game Boy Player were released a year prior in 2003. It's been speculated that this demo has existed since as early as 2004, seeing how the title screen uses artwork taken directly from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and use of a GameCube with a Game Boy Player is required to return to the main menu by pressing "X" (none of the GBA models had an X button). There is no copyright info anywhere in the game except for a screen with the Denaris Entertainment Software logo when loading the game, meaning that no one truly knows when this was even made.
The demo was intended to show how the Game Boy Advance was capable of using multiple layers of Mode 7, the technology used for rotating and scaling rendered backgrounds in various Super Nintendo and Game Boy Advance games, including Super Mario Kart, F-Zero, and many others. Mario Kart XXL was a Game Boy Advance game being developed by Denaris Entertainment Software. Note how this is not a standard Game Boy Advance cartridge but rather a black Game Boy cartridge without a label. The Lost Media Wiki’s article on the subject!
