In ''Pikmin 2'', the label reads "{{j|あおいろ|aoi ro|blue color|f=tp}}" in the Japanese [[Region|version]] of Pikmin 2, and "Mario Paint" in the American and European version, [[Reference|referencing]] the game ''[[mariowiki:Mario Paint|Mario Paint]]''. In ''Pikmin 4'', the label is more generic with unreadable text, with the word "Blue" in bold alongside a yellow dot.

{{transcript|This tube of decorative blue goo is sure to inspire creativity in anyone who comes upon it. It should also be a reminder to welcome new colors into your life now and then. Don't get stuck returning to the same hues over and over again. Go wild! Unleash a new you!|block=y}}

Oddly, depending on the [[region]] and [[area]], the treasure will appear differently when viewed in the [[Treasure Hoard]]. In the Japanese version, the treasure always appears correctly. In the US version, the treasure always appears to float above the floor. In the European version, in all areas except the [[Perplexing Pool]], the treasure again appears at ground level, but it lacks a shadow; in the Perplexing Pool, it looks the same as in the US version. All of these differences can also be found in the respective [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|Wii re-releases]] for each region.

Line 65: Line 68:
The reason for this is because in the US version, something unknown changed in the treasure's geometry, making it appear slightly above its origin point, compared to the Japanese version. The US developers did not realize this, and so the treasure is visually floating in that version. For the European version, this oversight was caught, but instead of correcting the model's data, the developers altered the spawn position of the treasure to be five units below floor level.<ref>The coordinates for each Treasure Hoard area, bar the Perplexing Pool, are 0,-5,0, as seen in <code>/user/Yamashita/zukan/pal/*/arc.szs/data/setting.ini</code>.</ref> While this does visually place the tube on the floor, it also means its shadow doesn't appear, since the object's Y coordinate is technically under the floor, and there is no floor below that to project a shadow onto. The coordinates for the Perplexing Pool have not been changed since it is very hard to even notice the problem, given that the treasure is underwater.

*A blue stain can be found where this treasure is located, suggesting that part of the tube's contents was dumped out, likely by the Blue Pikmin found lurking near it.
