The Hello Kitty Game Boy Camera appeared to have been scrapped fairly late into its development. In addition to how fleshed out it is even when compared with the simpler released The Legend of Zelda edition, the Nintendo 64DD features a unique header for it, POCKETCAMERA_SN, in code designed to check if a Game Boy Camera is plugged in. Additionally, although the device was shelved, at least two songs from it were reused in the Mobile Trainer, a Japan-only peripheral which allowed online multiplayer on select Game Boy Color games via a cell phone connection.
