*I tried searching around the textures for Olimar's icon, in ''Pikmin'', but the only thing I could find was an arrow pointing up that looked like it was it... except it was shrunk down vertically by 50%. Actually, let's switch perspective: in-game, the texture of a square-ratio'd arrow is stretched to make it longer. I think. Either that, or the actual long triangle texture is somewhere that I missed. Anyway, this normal arrow stretched looks like it fits.

*The treasure star and S.S. Dolphin icons are the only textures that are exactly the same as they are inside the game. However, on the radar screen, the S.S. Dolphin icon has some sort of purple outline... I think it's applied on the texture's darker parts, but no experiment I did could yield similar results as to what is seen in-game, so I decided to upload the unaltered image and get it over with. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 20:16, 22 August 2013 (EDT)

== Ruler ==
In P3, when you pan the radar around, there's a ruler of sorts. Its Koppaite text says "centi", which is likely short for "centimeter". The ruler has big dashes, with 4 small dashes in-between, and 4 tiny dashes between those. I figured that each small dash represents 1cm, so each medium dash is 5cm, and each large dash is 25cm. Using that as a basis, I measured that the Scornet Maestro's arena has a diameter of around 67cm (not counting the border or the access pathway), which sounds about right. So if one day, somebody ever investigates that ruler in detail, this info might be a good base to start on. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 18:18, 26 June 2017 (EDT)
== Split & move controls and appearance to each game's section? ==
With Pikmin 4 coming in and adding all these new things, I think it might be worth moving the main controls table out to each game's section. Also, with each game having so many unique icons, I think the main appearance table could also be split like this.
