This page will also include smaller secrets that do not exactly qualify as Easter eggs. At times, references to other series are considered Easter eggs as well, but those will not be presented on this page for the sake of organization, and will instead be listed '''[[Reference|here]]'''.

# When in the [[Menu#Cave exited|treasure tally screen]] of a [[cave]], if the player collected all treasures, and thus, has completed the cave, a small jingle will play, a message will appear, and confetti will drop. After waiting in this state for 3 minutes and 50 seconds, Totaka's song will start playing. A video of it can be found [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urhJZZs1Qd0 here]. It should be noted that this does not occur in the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|''New Play Control!'' version]].

Pikmin 2|Wii remake]] does not use memory cards and is always able to save the game, this Easter egg cannot be triggered in that version of ''Pikmin 2''.
