Unused Music#

A singular unused track for Oilspill Island is still leftover in the final game under the filename mu_oil_island_pipes_loop_1.wav

Scrapped Characters#

Orebot#

Orebot or Ore Machine or Ore Processing Machine was a scrapped character who would've appeared in Molekin Mine, Lava Lakes Railway and Arkeyan Armory. As the name suggests he would've proccessed/polished ore. He would later be used as a minor decoration in Swap Force 3DS.

Debug Minion#

To do:
Find a good video of this character and its abilities.

There exists an unused Skylander (known as "Debug Minion" in the files). Its moves include teleporting and using a rainbow attack. This only exists in the Wii U port and some ports of Skylanders: Giants.

Chinese and Korean Menu Items#

The Wii version contains Chinese and Korean language home button files and text strings, which is odd considering the game was never released in either language.

Revisional Differences#

On the Skylanders collections menu, if you have the soul gem for a character and press A on their icon, a gameplay demo of the Skylander plays. For some reason, this was changed on Wii discs with the ID of RVL-SSPP-EUR-B0, which instead plays a short clip of the Skylander in the clouds (as seen in the character trailers).
