Map 06

Map_06 is a beta map in Pikmin left in the disc. It appears to be the map from the Pikmin commercial.

Gameplay footage

This area has some internal associations missing, and had to be placed on top of The Distant Spring in order to be rendered playable. That explains the music in this video. <youtube>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOLf4TJQiFM</youtube>

Geography

The map has many plants, static objects, formations in the ground, and textures not featured in the finished Pikmin. The map seems to have no real boundaries, and Olimar can easily fall into the bottomless abyss. The ground is mostly dirt with rock and grass patches about. Many textures are also in the map that were left unused in the finalized game. As explained above, some associations are missing, so no info about enemies and objects can be retrieved.
