Canon: Difference between revisions

[[Prima Games]] has a vague relationship with the developers of games they make guides for. On top of containing walkthroughs and tips, some guides include some extra information about aspects of a franchise; in the ''Pikmin'' series' case, this could be extra descriptions of enemies, for instance. Prima Games works with all sorts of companies, making it doubtful that they can have a meaningful connection with all of them such that the extra information they write can be accepted as canon by the developers. On the other hand, it is clear that Prima Games has a strong connection with at least some departments of the development teams, seeing that their guides usually contain maps and charts that were rendered using 3D models or in-game images, resources that can only be obtained legally by agreement with the developer company. The guides are also officially licensed by Nintendo. That said, the extra information presented in some guides is not backed up by the canon game at all, and some other information can be dubious, like calling the [[Yellow Spectralid]] "Yellow Spectralids" over a likely typo in the [[lock-on]] name, or even outright wrong, like the time requirements for all of the [[Defeat Bosses!]] missions, or the wrong scientific name for the [[Breadbug]]. With all of this in mind, it is not clear if the information inside Prima Guides can be considered canon or not.
