The Spherical Atlas is one of many treasures in ''Pikmin 2'' that differs in apperance between [[region]]s. Depending on the version of the game, the globe is rotated such that the model's "front" is of each version's respective continent. This causes the treasure's discovery cutscene, collection cutscene, and [[Treasure Hoard]] entry to focus on that continent by default. The [[Geographic Projection]] has a similar reigonal difference, centering Oceania in the European version, and South America in the American and Japanese versions. Since {{p2s}} is based on the North American version of ''Pikmin 2'' worldwide, North America faces forwards in all versions of the Nintendo Switch port. | |||

The Treasure Hoard icon for this treasure is the same in all versions, and is centered over the Pacific Ocean. In the Nintendo Switch port however, the icon was changed to center North America, matching the treasure's orientation in-game. The highlight texture for this treasure's model is called <code>hilight_I4_bombsarai</code>, and is the same highlight texture used for the Geographic Projection and [[Careening Dirigibug]]. | |||
The globe depicts the world prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on {{date|25|December|1991}}. Although central Europe is hardly recognizable, the Baltic and central Asian states are clearly part of what is now the Russian Federation | The globe depicts the world prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on {{date|25|December|1991}}.
