Controls (Exploration Notes): Difference between revisions

'''Controls''' ({{j|操作ガイド|Sōsa Gaido|Control Guide}}) is a category in the [[Exploration Notes]] menu. These [[Data File]]s explain the basic controls of {{P3}}, as well as what to do in some special events. Most of them feature images of characters who appear to be [[Olimar]], [[Louie]], [[The President]], [[Alph]], [[Brittany]], and [[Charlie]]. Seven of the 30 [[Data File]]s are found around the terrain of certain [[areas]], while the other 23 are acquired by completing specific tasks.  

In this article, if there is no location stated for a Data File, it should already be obtained automatically, after meeting certain requirements, such as obtaining a certain item. Unless otherwise specified, the text provided is the same in both the US and European [[Region|versions]]. {{p3d}} changes some of the Data Files.
