The main page for the ''Storytime'' issue of the ''{{w|Steven Universe}}'' comic made by {{w|BOOM! Studios}} shows Steven playing a console game that resembles a ''Pikmin'' game. On the TV screen, there is a dark-skinned man in a [[spacesuit]] throwing a creature that looks like a [[Yellow Pikmin]], except it has a pointy nose like a [[Red Pikmin]]. At the top of the screen, there is also some [[HUD]] element with bars and a sun icon, most likely the [[HUD#Sun Meter|Sun Meter]].

The manga based on the [[starfywiki:The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]] (specifically, it is loosely based on ''[[starfywiki:Densetsu no Starfy 4|Densetsu no Starfy 4]]'') features a possible reference to Captain Olimar in chapter seven, [[starfywiki:DSR07|Tenkai-koku, Game-Ou Ketteisen]]. At the end of the chapter, [[starfywiki:Starfy|Starfy]]'s best friend [[starfywiki:Moe|Moe]] is playing a game for the [[nwiki:Nintendo Entertainment System|Famicom]]. According to the cartridge it is known as "''Orima Brothers''" ({{j|オリマブラザーズ|Orimaburazāzu}}), based on the game ''[[mariowiki:Mario Bros.|Mario Bros.]]''. However, this may have only been a play on "Mario" in reverse, rather than Captain Olimar. Additionally, Captain Olimar's Japanese name ({{j|オリマー|Orimā}}) is spelled differently, in that it has a long vowel mark elongating the "ma".

[[mariowiki:Puni|Punis]] are creatures in ''[[mariowiki:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They follow Mario around, a bit like the Pikmin follow a [[leader]]. He can have up to 101 of them, and although the ''Pikmin'' games also have a limit of Pikmin in the hundreds, it is not 101, but rather [[Pikmin limit|100 Pikmin]]. Some platforms need a number of Punis on top of them to press down, which can be compared to the [[paper bag]]s in ''Pikmin 2''. Some Punis also have spheres on top of stems on their heads, that are reminiscent of both a Pikmin's stem, and the antenna and light on leader heads.
