As | As it uses online features, {{p3}} does not have completely different editions between regions. There are no differences in objects and mechanics between regions, for example. Regional differences still exist, however, in the form of language differences. Various pieces of text, such as [[Pikmin 3 voyage log|voyage logs]], [[Check in|character dialog]], and [[Brittany's notes|fruit notes]] have to be translated into each language, and various differences in meaning were introduced in each translation. There are separate American English and British/Australian English versions, and besides spelling differences (e.g. "Armored Mawdad" / "Armoured Mawdad"), there are a few things given different names (e.g. "Check-in" / "Talk", "cosmic-drive key" / "cosmic drive key"), and the personality of the [[Koppai]]tes are slightly different between them. Some of these differences between English dialects were removed in {{p3d}}, which standardized some American English text. | ||
