Minigames With Unused Spot the Sneak Functionality
Spot the Sneak (Rule Reversal in PAL regions) is a game in Wii Party in which players compete in slightly altered versions of 4v4 minigames. The altered content comes in the form of an advantage for a singular player (the Sneak), where their goal is to both play well in the minigame, but also hide their identity as the Sneak. Spot the Sneak uses a total of 12 of the slightly altered 4v4 minigames, but there are 5 more that go completely unused, all of which have both full functionality as well as descriptions in the Japanese version of mess.bin.
- Derby Dash allows the Sneak to continue making the horse accelerate even after it's stamina has emptied. Holding B will allow the horse to become tired as normal.
- Shifty Gifts allows prevents the Sneak from dropping their stack of gifts. Holding B will allow the Sneak to drop their gifts as usual.
- Tropical Punch prevents the Sneak from being KO'ed by an opponents punch. Holding B makes the Sneak vulnerable to the punches as normal.
- Crash Balls prevents the Sneak from falling into any of the holes in the ground. Holding B allows the sneak to fall into the holes.
- Quicker Chipper allows the Sneak to make their chip regardless of if their shot has the correct power. Holding B removes the Sneak's perfect accuracy.
Early English Translation
Present only in the Japanese version of the game is an early version of the English translation, with slightly different word choices than the final and some grammar errors. (found in \locale\en_US)
Regional Differences
This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this. |
To do: Upload textures if possible. |
- The most notable regional difference is the addition of a House Party game exclusive to Asia. The game is called Quick Draw, and involves using real playing cards.
- In the Korean release, the medals of Spin-Off have been changed to stars, most likely to not give off the "money" impression due to South Korea banning gambling and its elements in gaming.
- In Globe Trot, the starting location changes depending on which regional version of the game you play. In American copies, you start on the US, PAL versions start in Germany (Nintendo of Europe's HQ is in Germany), Japan starting in Japan, and Korean copies starting in South Korea. The starting places in their respective versions cannot be chosen as Hot Spots.
- In the Japanese and Korean version of Board Game Island, completing a "challenge" shows a blue circle, instead of a green check-mark.
- The Japanese and Korean version of the minigame Dicey Descent have unique symbols to represent the left and right side of the platform.
- In the minigame Flying Fruits, when the game is counting how many fruits it was giving out, the red circles around the fruit were changed to green "V" checkmarks in the European release.
- In Match-Up, a large text saying "1人目", "2人目" (translated as first, second) temporarily appears on the center before the player gets a chance to find a Mii in the Japanese release. The international versions removed the feature for unknown reasons.
- In the part where the minigames' Wii Remote controls are being shown, the Japanese and Korean versions play a voice clip explaining how to hold the Wii Remote, vertical or horizontal.
- When the minigame starts by counting from three to one, the Japanese and Korean versions also use voice clips (3, 2, 1, Start!) in addition to the sound effects.
