Trivia

  • The German version states that Notso, rather than Howzit, runs the Twinkle Mart in Outer Space. The English localization merely notes that the version of him in the Twinkle Mart seems to have a different personality than normal. This is the only version of him that cannot be directly tattled, due to the building blocking the cursor and thus being tattled instead.
