Line 61: Line 61:
*The [[Gravity Jumper]] seems to be yellow, on the [[Shearwig]] clip, although it's probably an issue with the lighting. Also, Honeywisps are seen in the background near the Gravity Jumper, but they shouldn’t spawn there, despite being in the area in the final game.

*The [[Mamuta]], a [[Red Bulborb]], a [[Pearly Clamclamp]] and an Iridescent Flint Beetle appear in The Distant Spring. This is only possible in the final game in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], but it's unlikely that the footage for these clips was taken in Challenge Mode. That mode must have been added later into the game than the time in which the clips were recorded, and it would make more sense to show clips of enemies as they were encountered during the actual adventure, and not the non-[[canon]] Challenge Mode.

*It seems that [[Blue Pikmin]] weren't unlocked yet on the [[Smoky Progg]] clip. While it is possible to get to [[The Distant Spring]] without Blue Pikmin, it is highly unlikely that the player would have not unlocked Blue Pikmin before even being able to access [[The Distant Spring]].

While it is possible to get to [[The Distant Spring]] without Blue Pikmin, it is highly unlikely that the player would have not unlocked Blue Pikmin before even being able to access [[The Distant Spring]]. This may be related to the Goolix's clip, as noted below.
*In the Smoky Progg clip, the Smoky Progg's eyes are shown to be green, and not pink as they are in the final release.

*The enemy reel states that the Spotty Bulbear has "A certain indefatigability", meaning it doesn't get tired. However, in ''Pikmin'', Spotty Bulbears spend much of their time sleeping.

*It seems that 3 Pikmin are carrying a 1 [[pellet]] in the [[Breadbug]] clip. In the released version of the game, only 2 Pikmin may carry a 1 pellet at a time. There are some mysteries surrounding the possibility of [[Pellet#Three Pikmin carrying a 1 pellet|three Pikmin carrying a 1 pellet together]], and it is not clear if what's seen on the enemy reel is a gameplay mechanic available before the game's release, or if some of the "carrier" Pikmin are actually idling near the Onion's beam.

*Because there's a [[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]] on the ground by the lake in The Forest Navel, this means that an player could skip the Blue Onion and get Blue Pikmin right ahead. This might be the reason why the Goolix and the Candypop Bud was removed, although it may also be possible that the order that areas were unlocked was in a different order in this revision, and the player would have obtained Blue Pikmin before The Forest Navel. This change may also be related to the reason why Blue Pikmin weren't unlocked on the Smoky Progg clip, because they might have been obtained there instead, with The Forest Navel unlocked afterwards.
