Doing so just for a quick effect would be a bit costly, so Nintendo worked around it by exploiting the game's camera.

The Mirrored Stage is a treasure found in Pikmin 2. It is located in the third sublevel in the Shower Room. It is found inside a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat. Defeating the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloats and other enemies will make it easy to retrieve it from the larger Jellyfloat. It is actually a powder case.

An interesting thing to note is that the 'mirrored' part doesn't provide a mirror effect, but is simply a black wall. Producing such an effect would be complicated, so Nintendo worked around it by exploiting the game's camera. In the Treasure Hoard, the camera cannot go lower than a certain level, and it is unlikely that a player will take the time to hold 'R' in the story mode to look underneath the lid.
