*In ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'', Pikmin in mid-throw retain their position and velocity when a cutscene is triggered.

*For unknown reasons, when the player tries to throw in ''Pikmin'', there is a chance that Olimar will simply twitch instead. This is not the case if the Pikmin to throw is in front of Olimar, or is far way from him. Every once in a while, the game will enter a state for {{frames|1|y}} frame where it will reject the throw if the player presses the button on that frame. In the GameCube game, this happens every {{frames|11|y}} frames, though sometimes it's every {{frames|10|y}} frames instead, and in the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' release, it's roughly every {{frames|3|y}} frames, with the periodic break of {{frames|20|y}} frames where the glitch won't happen.{{cite youtube|9uOnWMzhMh0|showing how Olimar can fail to throw, and how various actions like whistling do not fix the problem|published={{date|20|July|2020}}|retrieved={{date|22|July|2020}}}} | |||
