Due to the different cultures and languages in the world, some aspects of the {{pg}} had to be changed in each '''region'''. These changes are most pronounced in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', where the in-game [[treasures]] are actual items in the real word, and due to the cultural differences, not all players would recognize the objects and brands existing in the original Japanese version of the game.

===''Hey! Pikmin''===
{{hp}} does not have significantly different editions between regions, and instead has multiple sets of text files and game assets that are substituted depending on the [[3DS]]'s language setting. The game is available in Japanese, American English, European English, American Spanish, European Spanish, Canadian French, European French, German, Italian, and Korean. While these settings primarily change text, there is one known model difference between different versions: the [[Revenge Fantasy]] treasure is a cartridge of the NES game [[nintendo:Ice Climber|''Ice Climber'']], and uses the different Japanese and American cartridge designs in the different regions.
Text differences between the two English versions of the game are common in treasure and enemy descriptions, but some things have entirely different names between the versions. This includes one [[area]] ([[Scorched Earth]] in the American version is [[Charred Plains]] in the European version), two sections of the [[Pikmin Park]], and the following [[treasure]]s:
