Easter Eggs
- At the title screen (where it says "press Start"), press the X button to make a beetle appear. Once the insect is on the screen, you can use left and right on the C-Stick to turn it and forward to move. If you move the bug into the Pikmin that make up the logo, they will "interact" with the bug.
- Press Y to make a Chappie appear. You can move it around the same way and press Z to make it eat Pikmin. To get rid of the creatures, press the L button.
- Press R to make the Pikmin run around the screen and then rearrange themselves to form the word "Nintendo."
- When browsing the Piklopedia, press the Z button to spray extra bitter spray on the enemy, thus freezing them!
Hint: Another Pikmin Song
If you bring 20 of each color Pikmin with you, the song they hum will be the hit song from the Japanese commercial for Pikmin. It will work both in the main levels and in the caverns where it will replace the Luigi's Mansion theme they otherwise like to sing.
HInt: Defeating Flint Beetles
If you come across a strange beetle that pops out of the ground, simply throw a purple pikmin anywhere around it and it will drop whatever it has.
Secret URL (Japanese version)
Late in the game, you will receive a letter from a mysterious stranger. It invites you to go to a hidden URL:
