Hurricane Helms appears many times in the game, though is not a playable character. In Christian's RTWM, you can have a foot race with him, while in Rey Mysterio's RTWM, you can have a secret match with him by filling his conditions. He's a selectable NPC for Create a Story, and his entrance/moveset are also available in Create a Superstar mode. It's possible that he was originally meant to be part of the playable roster, but because Hurricane Helm's contract with the WWE expired during development of WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011, WWE asked to remove him from the playable roster.

Early press releases show that there were a lot of traffic vehicles cut from the final game, such as motorbikes, scooters and police cars for US tracks, as well as European tracks and Oriental tracks. This proves that Burnout had a lot of influence from the arcade game Thrill Drive, which also had bikes and police cars for all the 3 tracks, and also contained US, European and Oriental tracks.

Shiver Star, the game's 5th world, appears to be a frozen-over version of Earth, containing several uninhabited urban areas. Nintendo has confirmed that Shiver Star was once inhabited, but the climate drove them to evacuate the planet. This has led fans to speculate that Shiver Star is a post-apocalyptic version of Earth. Though Nintendo's intentions during the making of Shiver Star remains unknown, it can be inferred that the world is either a message about climate change, or the suggestion that the "Kirby" series takes place in our own universe.

Attachment The gameplay was originally viewable in both 2D and isometric 3D layouts (whilst being developed as Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers), however there were consistency issues when switching between the layouts. It was also hard for players to see the board whilst in 3D and wasn't to the expectations of the developers.
