The [[Red Pikmin]], [[Yellow Pikmin]], and [[Blue Pikmin]], as well as a [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]] cameo as collectible badges in ''[[mario:Donkey Konga 2|Donkey Konga 2]]''. Each character's appearance on the badge is a headshot of their clay artwork from {{p2}}. The player can obtain one of these badges by winning a mini-game, then playing a {{w|Concentration (game)|Concentration}}-based mini-game, "Match That Badge!" If the player flips over two identical panels of a character, including the Pikmin or Bulborb, they earn a badge of that character. If the player reaches a high score in a mini-game, they can apply a badge to their new score.

* ''{{w|Adventure Time}}'' is a cartoon series that sometimes references video games. The plot of the episode ''The Visitor'' bares a strong resemblance to that of ''Pikmin'', as Martin recruits small native creatures to gather parts of his escape pod and leave the planet. This is akin to Olimar ordering Pikmin to carry ship parts back to the [[S.S. Dolphin]], so he can escape [[PNF-404]].
