Pikmin 3/English Translation Differences

This is a sub-page of Pikmin 3.

To do: Document the differences in dialog.

The following strings were changed between the US and the European versions of the game. Obviously, regional differences in spellings of normal words (e.g. Armored vs Armoured) will not be mentioned here. In addition to these changes, a lot of the in-game dialog (Exploration Notes included) was completely changed for the European version, for whatever reason. Also worth noting is that when the player ends the day from the pause menu and a notification appears warning them that Pikmin will be left behind, this warning does not specify how many will stay behind in the US English or EU English versions, but it does in all other languages and versions.

As was the case with New Play Control! Pikmin and New Play Control! Pikmin 2, in the European version of the game, Yellow Wollywogs and Wogpoles have been renamed to Yellow Wollyhops and Wolpoles, as "wog" is British slang for a dark-skinned person.
