Although ambiguous, PNF-404 is at least very Earth-like, with similar geography and traits. Whether PNF-404 is actually our Earth or an alternate version is yet to be revealed in the games. Either way, it is doubtful that the similarities are coincidental. | Although ambiguous, PNF-404 is at least very Earth-like, with similar geography and traits.

The area in space surrounding PNF-404 seems to contain many asteroids and be prone to various strange phenomena. At the beginning of {{p1}}, an asteroid strikes the [[S.S. Dolphin]], causing the events of the game. In {{p2}}{{'s}} opening cutscene, the [[Hocotate ship]] avoids an asteroid. {{p4}}{{'s}} introduction and ending cutscenes show several asteroids in close proximity. At the start of {{p3}}, as the [[S.S. Drake]] approaches the planet, "something goes horribly wrong", which causes the ship to crash, and [[Alph]] mentions in some [[Talk/Small talk#Small talk 21|small talk]] on day 2 that it felt "as if some power from the planet's surface was manipulating our ship". In ''Pikmin 4'', almost everyone who tries to land on the planet crashes | The area in space surrounding PNF-404 seems to contain many asteroids and be prone to various strange phenomena.

The name "PNF-404" fits the nomenclature used by NASA to identify less important planets. The letters and numbers that make up the name, however, have a special meaning: 404 is an {{w|List of HTTP status codes|HTTP status code}} that means "'''P'''age '''N'''ot '''F'''ound" | The name "PNF-404" fits the nomenclature used by NASA to identify less important planets.
