In Company_Sel.lex, there is a dummy picture.

Company_Placard_Dummy has a picture which simply says "dummy" on it.

In Poster.lex, there are two dummy pictures.

Poster_Dummy has a picture of the Wii no Ma logo. It also seems to be using a different font for the No Ma portion of the text.

Poster_Dummy_02 has a less interesting looking picture.

In Regional_Poster.lex, there is another dummy picture.

Regional_Poster says "チラシダミーテクスチャ" (Flyer Dummy Texture).

In 00000002.app/layout, there is a few more unused graphics.

Screen_Test.lex in the Screen_Test folder has two more unused graphics...

Screen_Test_BG.tpl has this picture which was probably used to test if the screen width and height were perfect. The numbers correspond to the width in pixels when the channel is being used in 4:3 (608) and 16:9 (832) aspect ratio.

Sircle.tpl has a circle in a square.
