Did you know…

...that Willy Builder's and Costolot's Store are in same building?
...that Pocket Paradise gives you a cake on your birthday?
...that crates are the only non-shovel item with the ability to flatten cracked earth?
...that Polollybears first appeared in Party Animals, a whole year before their formal introduction in Trouble in Paradise?
...that the characters exclusive to The P Factor are repurposed from scrapped designs created for the first game?
...that 53 unique species appear in the Rare logo that opens Trouble in Paradise?
...that the first game technically included local co-op by allowing multiple controllers to operate the cursor at once?
...that Elephanilla and Squazzil are the only two species to canonically fart?
...that Leafos' advice that Elephanillas require a garden without Mousemallows is true only in Pocket Paradise, where she doesn't even appear?
...that wildcard Eaglairs look identical to the standard variant, but only in the first game?
