The '''Cosmic Archive''' ({{j|コズミック・アーカイブ|Kozumikku Ākaibu|Cosmic Archive}}) is a treasure found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is actually a Famicom Disk System disk of the game ''{{w|The Mysterious Murasame Castle}}''. This treasure is found on sublevel 3 in the [[Hole of Beasts]], and it is best to take out the fire geysers prior to retrieving it; alternately, [[Red Pikmin]] may be issued to [[carry]] it.


The '''Cosmic Archive''' is a yellow Famicom disk of the game ''[[Wikipedia:Nazo no Murasame-jō|Nazo no Murasame Jou]]'' (''Mysterious Murasame Castle'' or ''Murasame's Mysterious Castle'' in English). The writing on it is mostly Japanese, so it cannot easily be interpreted, except for the part at the bottom:
The writing on it is as follows:

This treasure is found on Sublevel 3 in the [[Hole of Beasts]], and it is best to take out the fire geysers or use [[Red Pikmin]] to carry the treasure.
Which means "Family Computer Disk System", "The Mysterious Murasame Castle". The writing on the top is present for all Family Computer Disk System games.

*Interestingly, this treasure is not the only connection between ''Pikmin'' and ''Mysterious Murasame Castle''. In ''[[mariowiki:WarioWare: D.I.Y.|WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]'', [[mariowiki:Murasamejō|a microgame]] based on ''Mysterious Murasame Castle'' is present in the Japanese [[Region|version]], but has been replaced with a ''[[mariowiki:Pikmin (microgame)|Pikmin]]'' microgame in the localized versions.
**To a lesser degree, the ''[[smashwiki:Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. series]]'' combine elements from several universes, including ''Pikmin'' and ''Mysterious Murasame Castle''. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'', it is possible to, for instance, have [[Captain Olimar]] summon Takamaru as an [[smashwiki:Assist Trophy|Assist Trophy]].

Notes

Olimar's journal

The cave we searched today was lined with flame-spewing spouts! The temperature in the cave was absolutely stifling. Oh! That reminds me! I completely forgot to tell Louie about red Pikmin! He's so quiet, I sometimes forget he's even there. This item I salvaged from the cave seems to be some kind of storage device, but I have no way to play back the contents.

Sales pitch

All worldly matters, from time's start to its end, are said to be recorded in this historical vault! It is so huge, decoding it all is impossible. Its mere existence is said to make one philosophical.
