Tenda sprite Sprite mistake?

Opened presents shouldn't look like "poison" speech bubbles, should they?

This happened about three weeks ago, but I didn’t have a way to use the forums then (I usually use IE6, but that makes the forum layout go weird, and Firefox slows down my computer really badly, so now that it’s summer, I can only use it in the morning before the computer starts overheating). So anyways, I was early on in the game (chapter three) and I opened a present, and instead of the usual open-present sprite, it showed the bubble that appears over their heads when they’re poisoned. I took a screenshot of it so I could eventually report it.

Also, I guess I should mention that close to the end of the game (but I don’t remember when it was now), I went to Boney’s menu and it was glitchy. I took a screenshot of that too, and then used the Cup of Lifenoodles like I’d been planning to, and then it went back to normal, so I took another screenshot just for the heck of it.

Yeah, it does that when there are a lot of items on the screen. It wasn’t worth Tomato’s time to fix such a minor glitch.

Not sure about the poison thing, though…

The bug with the present box is well known, and it’s not caused by the translation. It’s also in the original game, and only appears rarely.
EDIT: Damn, I was ninja’d about the menu stuff…

Also, shouldn’t a bug report go into “THE BIG BUG REPORT TOPIC”?

I’m not sure. I hardly ever even look at these forums because, like I said, Firefox slows down my computer considerably. And I know it’s not a translation glitch, but I thought I should probably mention it.
