The '''Nova Blaster''' ({{j|ノヴァブラスター|Nova | The '''Nova Blaster''' ({{j|ノヴァブラスター|Nova Burasuta|Nova Blaster}}) is a [[ship part]] of the [[S.S. Dolphin]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. Its promotional brochure claims that it emits a powerful burst of light said to be able to destroy stellar objects as large as stars. It is unknown why a cargo ship like the Dolphin and Hocotate ship would have this weapon, however, it is assumed that its purpose is as a means of defense against space pirates. The brochure also says that the blasts could travel through the currents in space. | ||
As pointed out by the game's instruction manual, the reason why [[Captain Olimar]] did not intercept the incoming meteor from the beginning of the game with the Nova Blaster is because the route he was flying through was usually a safe one, therefore he had put the S.S. Dolphin on auto-pilot to get some tea, and failed to notice the meteor. However, this does not explain why the [[Guard Satellite]] had failed to warn the Captain of the meteor, despite having the means to destroy it with the Nova Blaster. | As pointed out by the game's instruction manual, the reason why [[Captain Olimar]] did not intercept the incoming meteor from the beginning of the game with the Nova Blaster is because the route he was flying through was usually a safe one, therefore he had put the S.S.

Destroy the [[Gate|stone wall]] next to the landing area with [[bomb-rock]]s. Next, defeat the [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and a [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]]. Destroy the black gate or go through a small opening in the tree stump's root. Continue down the path, beating more [[Grub-dog|Bulborbs]]. It is at the end, next to a rusted open tin can. | Destroy the [[Gate|stone wall]] next to the landing area with [[bomb-rock]]s. Next, defeat the [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and a [[Bulborb|Spotty Bulborb]].

Ascend the hill near the Meandering Slope landing site and throw Pikmin to lower the bridge over the valley. Cross the bridge and use [[Moss]]' [[rush]] or a [[bomb rock]] to break a barricade of [[jar]]s to the left. Past a [[Puffy Blowhog]] is an [[Arachnode]] that is keeping the Nova Blaster in its web. Kill the Blowhog to prevent it from disrupting your Pikmin, then kill the Arachnode to recover the part. | Ascend the hill near the Meandering Slope landing site and throw Pikmin to lower the bridge over the valley.
