ピクミン2/地域による違い

このページは Pikmin 2 のサブページです。

A good chunk of Pikmin 2's treasures are licensed products, so it makes sense that they would differ with each region of the game. Then there are other treasures that were just too foreign to be recognized, so those had to be changed too. Anyway, prepare to raise your brand awareness of many fine consumables!

Items in blue appear in multiple regions, but were moved to different files.

Miscellaneous

E-Reader Support

The Japanese game had e-Reader and GBA link support that was removed from all other releases. By this point (Summer 2004) the e-Reader was dead in North America and had never really been introduced in Europe. With e-cards, 3 new minigames could be uploaded to the Game Boy Advance, with additional levels being unlocked with different cards.

Pikmin Plucking

Olimar must pluck every Pikmin from the ground before time runs out.

Pikmin Parts

Lead all Pikmin to the goal and out of harm's way.

Pikmin Path

The object is to move pieces around (a bit like a sliding puzzle) to get all Pikmin to the ship pod.

Yield Sign

Japan	International

Japanese Stop signs are triangular in shape. Rather than changing the shape of the Stop sign in the Wistful Wild, the North American and PAL versions changed it to a Yield sign.

Decorative Goo

On the Treasure Hoard, the Decorative Goo floats gently above ground in the US version. This has been fixed in the PAL version.

Minor things

• The Silencer's treasure value was changed from 666 Pokos to 670 Pokos in all non-Japanese releases. The reason why should be obvious. If not, consult your local numerologist.
• The Beady Long Legs' feet can be damaged normally in the Japanese version. In the other versions, only a Purple Pikmin's stomp can cause any damage.
• On the Piklopedia, if you petrify a Volatile Dweevil while it is about to explode, the game freezes in the Japanese version, but causes the enemy to explode its petrified self in the overseas releases.
• Like most other Japanese Nintendo games, there is an option to enable or disable katakana and hiragana text atop the normal kanji symbols, which helps younger readers understand the in-game text.
• For the title screen, there is actually a setting that controls what the size of each Pikmin's flower should be (under /user/Ebisawa/title/title.szs/param/param_pikmin.txt). In Japan, this is set to 2.6, but it's 2.4 everywhere else.
