In the case of ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', it was decided before the European GameCube release that skipping the [[sunset]] [[cutscene]] by pressing {{button|gc|start}} would be convenient, so that feature was added for that version of the game. All regional versions of {{npcp1}} also allow skipping the cutscene. In addition, the Japanese version contains an option in the [[options menu]] that allows the player to toggle between a "child" mode and an "adult" mode; the former makes the text easier to read. Finally, the [[Secret Safe]] requires 85 [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to [[carry]] it in the Japanese version, and 40 Pikmin in the other versions.

Due to the need to support 50 Hz displays, ''Pikmin'' runs at a slower [[frame]]rate in the European version, running at only 25 frames per second in-game, as opposed to the 30 frames per second framerate of the other regions (which use 60 Hz displays). Due to the game running slower and events taking longer, some cutscenes [[Music in Pikmin|songs]] were extended for this version. Support for 60 Hz displays in the European version was only added in ''New Play Control! Pikmin''.

In the Japanese version of {{npcp1}}, an exclusive fifth [[Cutscene#Attraction mode|attract mode]] movie is present. The European and Korean versions of ''New Play Control! Pikmin'' also correct most of the sped-up enemy sounds that the Wii version of the game has, but made some Onion sound effects sped up.
