This article or section is a short summary on unused content in the Pikmin series.
The Cutting Room Floor features more in-depth content.

Some unused content is left inside the final version of some Pikmin games. There is information about prototype content, but this is a list of content that is inside the games' files, and isn't used in a regular playthrough.

Pikmin

Debug menu

The leaf texture used in Pikmin 2's Challenge Mode menu. (Used on Pikipedia in the {{stub}} template.)

This article is a stub. You can help Pikipedia by expanding it.

A menu written in Japanese with several debugging features is present in the game. Each option has a value, and pressing A will activate the option, with the specified value. The options, in order, display the following:

  • Title screen. 0 means the Challenge Mode option won't be visible. 1 means that option is present.
  • A set of voyage log entries. Set #19 is untranslated for some reason.
  • Saved game screen. Its value doesn't seem to do anything.
  • A weird screen, possibly used to test sprites, effects and buttons.
  • Memory card warnings. 0 and 1 don't do anything, 2 warns that the card cannot be used. 4 warns that it must be formatted.
  • Ship log selection screen.
  • Unlocked voyage logs. Acts weirdly.
  • End of day screen.
  • Pause menus. 0 is during a regular adventure, 1 is during challenge mode.
  • Final statistics.
  • Title screen without background.

You can also access by using this code on an US version of Pikmin:

Unused voyage log content

Main article: Olimar's voyage log.

There are some unused voyage log entries, some unused untranslated second pages, some Japanese entries that don't relate to regular logs, and a function to display the text "1 day" in some messages that can never do that.

Unused monolog content

Main article: Olimar's monologs.

There is an unused monolog, an unused function to write a singular or plural word, and a set of files in Japanese.

Unused areas

The following unused areas have been found inside the game's files:

Unused bomb-rock textures

Some unused textures have been found on the game's disc, portraying Blue and Red Pikmin with bomb-rocks.

Blue Leaf Bud Flower

Red Leaf Bud Flower

Unused Enemies

Main article: Iwagen.

Iwagen is a rock generator that resembles a vase of sorts. It doesn't have a health counter. {{#ev:youtube|v=FpNXS37RJjA}}

Unused Pikmin animations

There are a few animations for the Pikmin that aren't used.

Others

  • There are 2 test blo files found inside dataDir\screen\eng_blo, "test.blo" and "test2.blo"
  • account.blo contains some weird strings that don't seem to be used. They are "The sun has gone down, today's job is finished.", which appears twice, "starting pikmins", "pikmins now", "dead pikmins", "enemies defeated" and "collected items", which all appear twice, grouped. account2.blo seems to contain the real text for the results screen.

Pikmin 2

The leaf texture used in Pikmin 2's Challenge Mode menu. (Used on Pikipedia in the {{stub}} template.)

This article is a stub. You can help Pikipedia by expanding it.

Unused graphics

Piklopedia dummy texture

The dummy texture.

A dummy Piklopedia icon can be found amidst the regular Piklopedia icon textures, in the game's files. Presumably, it was used during development to identify enemies with no icon at the time.

Unused scenes

Much like in the first game, each Onion was to be found dormant, and had their own "Boot Up" scene. These cutscenes go unused, but are still present in the game's files. {{#ev:youtube|v=Qs4GbCKMgZs}} {{#ev:youtube|v=dMJdjmYkGD8}} {{#ev:youtube|v=rTiI4y87O9o}}

Unused treasures

Some unused treasures exist inside Pikmin 2's game data. These treasures are actually disks of older Gamecube games: Pikmin, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Luigi's Mansion, and Super Mario Sunshine.

Pikmin 2-e

Main article: e-Reader.

The Japanese version of Pikmin 2 has e-Reader compatibility. Although this was removed for the overseas versions of the game, the menus are still present in the game's files.
