Pikmin Safari is a series of short Pikmin-related videos released on the Nintendo Video channel for the 3DS. They are spoofs on nature documentaries, with an explorer narrating them, and a cameraman following behind. In them, the explorer, identified as Winston Chumling, follows Alph and his crew, with a cameraman recording, while they all explore and interact with the environment and creatures on PNF-404, through the Garden of Hope, Distant Tundra, and Tropical Wilds. The "documentaries" are made up of Pikmin 3 footage.

Since Nintendo Video has been removed from the 3DS eShop, Pikmin Safari is most likely discontinued.

Transcription

  • [Camera pans into the S.S. Drake.]
  • "Welcome to Pikmin Safari, where each episode, I, Winston Chumling, will join Alph and the Pikmin 3 crew, to speed you through the area of the perilous planet PNF-404, and if we're lucky, introduce you to some of its more interesting inhabitants."
  • [Pause and "The Garden of Hope" title card]
  • "Today, we're hiking hopefully through the not-so-peaceful paradise that is the Garden of Hope."
  • [Alph appears, running towards the first Bulborb and Dwarf Bulborbs in the area. The scene then changes to the cameraman as he takes a photo midway through.]
  • "Cor blimey, this dodgy fellow is a Dwarf Bulborb. Yes, silly, dwarfs have Bulborbs too, only those are smaller, younger, and less...bulbous, I suppose."
  • [The cameraman moves forward and snaps the Red Bulborb.]
  • "Unlike that tubby-mufffin sleeping over there. Now, we mustn't breathe a word, or–"
  • [Bulborb wakes up.]
  • "We're done talking! [Incomprehensible], run!"
  • [Different part of the area, with an electric gate.]
  • "[Sigh] Right. We're safe now. Let's look for a way forward. That electric gate does not look inviting. Hmm, whoever left it there must've been far more intelligent than a simple Pikmin."
  • [Section of the area where Blue Pikmin are found.]
  • "Ah, what's this? A data file? Interesting. It seems this exploration note was left behind by a famous captain. What was his name again? Ohboy? Mario? No... O-Olimar! That's the one. I wonder if he's lost here as well."
  • [A White Spectralid flies nearby.]
  • "Wait, what's that? Why, if it isn't a White Spectralid. It may seem rather dull, but unlike most creatures on PNF-404, it won't try to nosh your entrails. That means it's lovely-jubilee by me, old chap. The last thing you want to do is get mixed up with the wrong sort in a place like this."
  • [Camera zooms in to some Pikmin in bubbles and a Waddlepus in the distance.]
  • "What's this, then? Pikmin floating in bubbles? That does not seem safe. Ahem, cameraman, why are we nearing something that does not seem safe? Let's not get quite so... Too close!"
  • [Alph gets trapped in a bubble.]
  • "In a bubble. Definitely. In. A. Bubble."
  • [Alph pops off the bubble.]
  • "There, let's just get out of here and get our Pikmin back to the Onion."
  • [Scene changes to the landing site.]
  • "Speaking of... There she is, mate, the Onion! The happy home of Pikmin lucky enough not to die terrible deaths. It will follow you throughout your journeys on PNF-404."
  • [Camera zooms in on distant Pellet Posy.]
  • "Now, if Pikmin get their mitts on this Pellet Posy and take it back to the Onion, it will spawn extra Pikmin. It's the bee's knees, and so is the stonking plate of fish and chips in my near future. In other words, this tour is near its end. Which means: fish and chips, here I– fiddlesticks."
  • [Alph moves to the Bulborb from before, where some Pikmin kill it and carry it back.]
  • "Seems our Pikmin have made a [incomprehensible] situation. Seems like that got the job done, though. Their lives were not in vain. Good work, boys! Or... Wait, are Pikmin male, [incomprehensible]? I must have a note card about this somewhere. But regardless, we'll see you next time on Pikmin Safari.
  • [Closing title card.]
  • "For now, though, pip pip, Pikmin fans!"
