This page details pre-release information and/or media for Pilotwings 64.

This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

To do:

  • Document differences from the final game seen in each of the below videos and images.
  • Find footage of the E3 '96 demo and document any noticeable differences.
  • Investigate the Nintendo debugging tape, which documents bugs in a Japanese build of the game (or at least one that has some Japanese text). It's currently unclear whether any of these bugs exist in the final game, and there may be other pre-final stuff (graphics, objects, etc.) in here.
