The '''''Pikmin'' Short Movies''' ({{j|ピクミン短編アニメ集|Pikumin Tanpen Anime-shū|Pikmin Short Film Collection}}) are a trio of animated films released in 2014, showing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] interacting with the environment of [[PNF-404]] alongside [[Captain Olimar]]. These films are drawn using computer generated 3D graphics. They were produced by TK3 Inc. and Nintendo Co., Ltd, and were animated by Dynamo Pictures, Inc. (formerly Dwango Pictures, Inc.), with Shigeru Miyamoto as executive producer. The three shorts are called ''[[The Night Juicer]]'', ''[[Treasure in a Bottle]]'', and ''[[Occupational Hazards]]''.
{{stub|Needs to be updated.}}


The shorts are all based on the first two [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. They focus more on the Pikmin's interactions with the environment, as well as each individual Pikmin's behaviors and actions. These aspects cannot be elaborated on inside the games, due to technical and visual limitations, as well as deviating from the gameplay purposes of the games. Some of the actions the Pikmin perform in the shorts contradict what is known to happen in the game's [[canon]], meaning that it is not clear if the shorts take place in the same canon as the games'. These include the Pikmin being able to open up their leaves or buds into flowers seemingly at will, and [[White Pikmin]] being able to spit acid.
The '''short ''Pikmin'' movies''' refer to short animated films, made by Shigeru Miyamoto and released in 2014, showing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] interacting with the environment of [[PNF-404]] alongside [[Captain Olimar]]. These films are drawn using computer generated 3D graphics.
 
In addition to the shorts, four bonus clips exist. The bundle consisting of shorts and bonuses was originally available on the [[Wii U]] and the [[Nintendo 3DS]], on each of the respective platform's eShop, for $4.99/£4.49/€4.99. However, those apps have since been deleted, and the videos were moved to Nintendo's official YouTube channels for free watching. The 3DS version of the bundle is in stereoscopic 3D, and is referred to as "''Pikmin'' Short Movies 3D", while the clips on the Wii U are referred to as "''Pikmin'' Short Movies HD", and are rendered in high definition. The latter being the versions that were uploaded to YouTube.

===''The Night Juicer''===
[[File:NightJuicerSC.png|thumb|200px|Olimar blending his drink in ''The Night Juicer''.]]
{{main|The Night Juicer}}
 
This short features Captain Olimar and some [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] inside an unknown room, with Captain Olimar using a small blender to make a juice-like drink. The three Pikmin become horrified with what appears to be a vivisected Red Pikmin on a cutting board. Olimar slowly chases after the Pikmin, each of them envisioning themselves being turned into a cool refreshment,  until they eventually bump into a box of [[pikpik carrot]]s, the food that Olimar was really blending. Still petrified by fear, the Pikmin lay motionless in the pile of carrots as Olimar casually shifts them aside to pick up a couple of the carrots. He then proceeds to chipperly walk off camera, completely unaware of the humorous misunderstanding.

===''Treasure in a Bottle''===
[[File:PikminShort.jpg|thumb|left|300px|The 3 Pikmin get an idea to rescue their friend.]]
{{main|Treasure in a Bottle}}
This short starts off with a Red Pikmin chasing after a large white butterfly, eventually coming across a Ramune bottle with a blue marble inside. While trying to retrieve the marble, the Pikmin manages to trap itself inside the bottle. It calls for help from a passing group of Blue, Yellow and Red Pikmin, which laugh at the Red's plight and comically distorted appearance the bottle causes the Red Pikmin to have.
 
The Pikmin get ideas to fill the bottle with water or blow it up, which are never executed and fail, respectively. After spotting the butterfly again and a [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]] as well as 3 Blue Pikmin using their weight as a chain to catch the butterfly, all at once they come up with the idea to create a rescue chain of Pikmin held by the Purple. The trapped Red Pikmin is rescued, but before it returns to the ground, it looks back at the marble. Eventually, the Pikmin decide to carry the whole bottle back.

===''Occupational Hazards''===
[[File:OccupationalHazardsSC.png|300px|thumb|Pikmin hard at work, scavenging an abandoned construction site.]]
{{main|Occupational Hazards}}
This short begins with various types of Pikmin scavenging an abandoned construction site containing a {{w|backhoe}} for treasures for the [[Hocotate ship]]. While most of the Pikmin are hard at work, some of them are slacking off, such as a group of several Yellow Pikmin playing with an electrical current of the engine's battery and [[White Pikmin]] spitting poison fluids at various parts of the machine, which results in portions of it getting damaged, and moreover, melted. Olimar is on the top of the machine, and has a miniature seesaw device so that the Pikmin can both reach the ship's pod and get to the ground easily at the same time. The Research Pod, filled to the brim with treasures (as the Pikmin have amassed a giant pile of fasteners below the ship), temporarily leaves to unload its cargo on the ship.
 
Meanwhile, a group of Pikmin run off to rummage through some metal pipes and accidentally wake up a sleeping [[Fiery Blowhog]], who then stampedes after them. A few Red Pikmin subdue it into a pile of mud, causing the Blowhog to now spew out mud, and the Pikmin nearby start frolicking. While playing, a Yellow Pikmin wanders off into a nearby sewer entry after noticing a shiny golden colored bolt on the floor. It eventually finds and accidentally awakens an angered and incidentally hungry [[Bulborb]].
 
The Bulborb chases the Pikmin, stopping a few times because of the Pikmin hiding in a glove to hypnotize him, and later, a tire rim serving as shelter for the Pikmin. Meanwhile, the Yellow Pikmin who were playing with the battery, manage to inadvertently activate the backhoe by completing a full electrical circuit between its battery and its machinery, and an accidental lever activation causes the bucket to lift, where the Pikmin and Bulborb were. The Bulborb crashes to the ground and becomes unconscious, and the Pikmin, their leaves changed to flowers, float safely to the ground. After some Pikmin swarm it, the arm and bucket of the machine fall apart and land on the Bulborb; the Pikmin escape just in time. The whole backhoe collapses, and the Research Pod, that has just returned, discovers that the whole pile (including the Bulborb) is worth 1 quadrillion and seven Pokos. Olimar is both astounded and overjoyed by this most profitable find and strikes a triumphant pose.

===Bonuses===
[[File:TIABStoryboard.jpg|thumb|100px|A portion of the storyboard from ''Treasure in a Bottle''.]]
In the apps, a bonus section exists, featuring four clips on the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, plus two more bonus clips exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version.
 
====TOHO CINEMAS 2012 Logo====
This is a cross-promotional theater chain intro clip that was originally played in various {{w|Toho Cinemas}} theaters in late 2012 before the feature film began
 
The clip starts off with a [[Red Pikmin]] atop a red ball. It spins the ball around, revealing the ball to be part of the Toho Cinemas logo. Various Pikmin (Red, [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]], [[Yellow Pikmin|Yellow]], [[Purple Pikmin|Purple]], and [[White Pikmin|White]]) come running out of the opening, carrying various letters. They set the letters down, which eventually spell out "TOHO CINEMAS". The Red Pikmin jumps off the circular emblem. Afterward, the emblem begins to bounce towards the Red Pikmin until it remains fixed atop the letters, revealing the full Toho Cinemas logo. The Red Pikmin then runs off.
 
Length: 00:31
 
====TOHO CINEMAS 2013 Logo====
This is a cross-promotional theater chain intro clip that was originally played in various {{w|Toho Cinemas}} theaters in early 2013 before the feature film began. It is an updated version of the 2012 Pikmin intro clip to tie in with {{p3}}.
 
This clip starts of the same way as the 2012 version, except a [[Rock Pikmin]] is among the various Pikmin carrying the letters that spell "TOHO CINEMAS", and towards the end the circular Toho Cinemas emblem is carried above the letters by some [[Winged Pikmin]]. The Red Pikmin also stays on top of the emblem, calling out "Pikmin" as it [[Maturity|flowers up]].
 
Length: 00:37
 
====TOHO CINEMAS 3D Glasses====
This is a cross-promotional informal clip that originally played in various {{w|Toho Cinemas}} theaters between 2012 and 2013 just before the 3D trailers and the 3D feature film began. In the apps, it is exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version.
 
Three Pikmin appear in a blank background, and text suddenly appears informing the audience to please put on their 3D glasses. As the Pikmin put on their own glasses, a tremor occurs, and suddenly the Pikmin appear in distance of each other to illustrate the 3D effect, which surprises the Pikmin before running to greet each other. Suddenly, a large group of frightened Pikmin run past the three, where they quickly find themselves chased by a [[Bulborb]] in a grassy field. The Bulborb chases the three Pikmin until they disappear off screen. The Bulborb then puts on its own 3D glasses as it notices the audience, and hurls towards the camera.
 
Length: 00:37
 
====RealD 3D Cinemas Trailer====
This is a cross-promotional informal clip that originally played in various theaters in certain countries during 2013, just before the 3D trailers and the 3D feature film began, if said theaters supported {{w|RealD}}'s {{w|RealD 3D|3D systems}}. The clip features RealD's old logo, which was officially redesigned in 2015.{{cite web|https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/new_logo_for_reald.php|Brand New: New Logo for RealD|UnderConsideration LLC}} In the apps, it is exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS version.
 
Three Pikmin are sitting idly on a leaf blade in a grassy field, and suddenly a [[Winged Pikmin]] comes along dropping 3D glasses for each one of the three. As the three Pikmin curiously put on their glasses, they got stunned by the 3D effect that just kicked in, with two Winged Pikmin on the scene also helping illustrate the 3D effect. Suddenly, a [[Bulborb]] appears behind them, and chases after the three Pikmin until they disappear off screen. The two Winged Pikmin from earlier appear again with a RealD pair of glasses for the Bulborb, which it puts on quickly before hurling towards the camera. The clip ends with the appearance of the blue RealD 3D logo, and its slogan "The New Dimension Of Entertainment" below it.

====''Treasure in a Bottle'': Storyboard by Shigeru Miyamoto====
Like the title implies, this is a storyboard Miyamoto used to develop ''Treasure in a Bottle.'' It was created using the original ''[[nwiki:Flipnote Studio|Flipnote Studio]]''.
 
To note is that the animated storyboard clips are in the same resolution as the original Nintendo DSi app, and the shorts were likely in production since circa 2012. The final version of Flipnote Studio 3D itself was not launched in Japan until July 2013.
 
Length: 01:23
 
====''Occupational Hazards'': Storyboard by Shigeru Miyamoto====
Similarly, this is a storyboard created by Miyamoto for ''Occupational Hazards''. Once again, it was created using the original ''[[nwiki:Flipnote Studio|Flipnote Studio]]''.
 
To note is that the animated storyboard clips are in the same resolution as the original Nintendo DSi app, and the shorts were likely in production since circa 2012. The final version of Flipnote Studio 3D itself was not launched in Japan until July 2013.

==The app==
===Wii U===
When the ''Pikmin'' Short Movies app is booted, a jingle with the [[Music in Pikmin 2#Leitmotifs|Pikmin motif]] from {{p2}} plays. When it finishes loading, a menu with 4 options is presented on the GamePad, three for the shorts, and one that opens the bonus menu. A short or bonus can be picked with either {{button|wiiu|lstick}} and {{button|wiiu|a}} or by touching it on the touchscreen. During this menu, the TV screen shows a static image of the ''Pikmin'' Short Movies HD logo, and if the viewer is on the bonus menu, the word "Bonus" appears below it. On the TV, a light remix of the theme that plays during the [[Cutscene#Bad ending|bad ending of ''Pikmin'']] can be heard – it is just the same song but with sound effects from the shorts spread about, and followed by wildlife sounds before it loops again.
 
When playing a short, the TV always shows the short, and the GamePad screen can either show the video or detailed playback controls; a button on the bottom-right corner toggles this option. When in the detailed view, the top of the GamePad screen shows the name of the short, followed by the current time and the total duration. Below that is a seek bar, which the viewer can drag to seek through the movie. Below that are three control buttons. The buttons to skip forward and backward move the movie 5 seconds forward or backward, if it is paused, and if not, it fast-forwards forwards or backwards, 5 seconds at a time. The play/pause buttons starts or pauses the playback. Finally, a button on the bottom-left returns to the main menu.
 
In the GamePad view mode, only three controls exist: a button on the bottom-left plays and pauses, a seek bar is in the middle, and the button on the bottom-right toggles the mode. The audio will also start being played through the GamePad instead of the TV. When the video is playing, after not touching anything for a few seconds, the controls disappear, but return if the touchscreen is touched. Bizarrely, even though no button or stick on the GamePad does anything, pressing {{button|wiiu|a}}, {{button|wiiu|b}}, {{button|wiiu|x}}, {{button|wiiu|y}}, {{button|wiiu|l}}, {{button|wiiu|r}}, {{button|wiiu|zl}} or {{button|wiiu|zr}} will bring back the on-screen controls if they are hidden.
 
===3DS===
When the ''Pikmin'' Short Movies app is loaded, the top screen will show a static image of the short movie or bonus video selected on the touch screen. The touch screen will show the 3 short movies' and the bonus contents' buttons. Tapping on a movie's button or pressing {{button|3ds|a}} while it's selected will start the film.
 
While a short movie or bonus feature is playing, the top screen will show the video and the bottom screen will have the controls. Viewers can pause/play the video, skip ahead or back a few seconds, and see how much time is left. While the movie is playing, pressing {{button|3ds|a}}, {{button|3ds|b}}, {{button|3ds|x}}, {{button|3ds|y}}, {{button|3ds|l}}, or {{button|3ds|r}} will play a sound effect. {{button|3ds|a}} will play a [[whistle]] sound. {{button|3ds|b}} will play a train noise. {{button|3ds|x}} will play an [[Bomb rock|explosion]] noise, a bell ringing, a cymbal crash, a metal sound, or a drum beat. {{button|3ds|y}} will play an electric guitar sound. {{button|3ds|l}} will play the sound that plays every time a quarter of the day has gone by in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. {{button|3ds|r}} will play a [[Bouncy Mushroom]] sound.
 
While on the menu, the music ''Live as a Pikmin'' from ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' will play, along with a bunch of sound effects from the short movies.

{{Todo|Add sources.}}
In an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto in March of 2013, the creator of the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]] announced Nintendo was working on a cartoon based on the franchise. In the interview, Miyamoto revealed that these cartoons would be released at some point in 2013 but before the next game in the series, ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', which was still in development. The idea was to distribute them as Nintendo 3DS videos, and he considered the idea of selling them if they become something bigger.

In an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto in March of 2013, the creator of the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]] announced Nintendo was working on a cartoon based on the franchise. In the interview, Miyamoto revealed that these cartoons would be released at some point in 2013 but before the next game in the series, ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', which was still in development. The idea was to distribute them as [[Nintendo 3DS]] videos, and he considered the idea of selling them if they become something bigger.
 
The idea for these cartoons came around when Miyamoto was trying to "give more life to the ''Pikmin'' characters". When asked if this was an attempt to make the 3DS less of a gaming-centric console, Miyamoto declared he hadn't thought about it that way. Instead, it's just taking advantage of the ''Pikmin'' series, and expanding its potential. If the idea were to flourish, Nintendo would do cartoons on other franchises as well.
 
Miyamoto stated that they'd considered doing something like this for Nintendo's characters many times in the past, but avoided it because of the difference between an interactive game and a film. A film also requires much more "setting in stone" about the characters and world that could be limiting for the company when it comes to future games. However, with Pikmin they're very small inside the game and players can't see them well without zooming in close. So he thought shorts might be a good fit for the Pikmin series as it'd allow there to be more focus on the actual Pikmin.


In September of 2014, Miyamoto announced that three short animated movies would be shown at the Tokyo International film festival, which would happen from {{date|25|October}} to {{date|31|October}}. These short movies will be titled ''The Night Juicer'', ''Treasures in a Bottle'', and ''Occupational Hazards''.
The first true short would show [[Captain Olimar]] blending and drinking what appears to be a vivisected [[Red Pikmin]]. After some other characters discover this, they back away in shock, as the knife-wielding Olimar approaches them. In doing so, they trip onto a pile of [[Pikpik carrot]]s, the aliment that Olimar was truly consuming.


On {{date|25|October|2014}}, the movies were premiered at the Tokyo Film Festival. According to IGN, Miyamoto has completed 20-30 short films, yet has only left the three movies listed above for public viewing.{{cite web|http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/10/28/shigeru-miyamotos-pikmin-short-films-are-beautiful|Shigeru Miyamoto's Pikmin Short Films Are Beautiful|IGN}}

After the shorts were presented, Shigeru Miyamoto and Dwango chairman Nobuo Kawakami held a press conference, and revealed more info on the shorts{{cite web|http://mynintendonews.com/2014/10/25/pikmin-short-films-coming-soon-to-nintendo-3ds/|Pikmin Short Films Coming Soon To Nintendo 3DS|My Nintendo News}}. The two stated things such as the shorts soon after coming to the eShop. They also announced that they made the storyboard using ''{{w|Flipnote Studio 3D}}''. Each film was planned to be 10 minutes long, but they ended up scrapping the idea and made some slightly longer and shorter ones. Other minor details were announced as well.
In September of 2014, Miyamoto announced that three short animated movies would be shown at the Tokyo International film festival, which will happen from October 25 to 31. These short movies will be titled ''The Night Juicer'', ''Treasures in a Bottle'', and ''Occupational Hazards''.


===Nintendo Direct===
On the 25<sup>th</sup> of October 2014, the movies were premiered at the Tokyo Film Festival. They will be making their way into the 3DS eShop at a later date.
On {{date|5|November|2014}}, Nintendo released the ''Pikmin'' shorts, for both 3DS and Wii U. The 3DS version featured 3D elements to it, while the Wii U version is in HD. He explained that storyboard was created using ''{{w|Flipnote Studio}}'', instead of ''{{w|Flipnote Studio 3D}}'' that he said in a Japanese interview some time ago, possibly a form to hide the ''Flipnote Studio 3D'' delay since July 2013 in North America, Europe and Australia (however it was eventually released in February 2015 in North America, and in March 2016 in Europe and Oceania). During the Direct, Miyamoto also mentioned that a ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' demo would be released after the direct, as a way for people who enjoyed the movies to get a feel for what Pikmin was like. During the same direct, Miyamoto stated that they would be holding various Pikmin events via Miiverse, the first of these being an [[Miiverse#Pikmin Spotted!|''Art Academy: Sketchpad'' contest]]. After the direct, Miyamoto also stated that "continuing campaigns such as these may lay the groundwork for the next iteration in the ''Pikmin'' series", leading fans to believe that Miyamoto may have hinted at a fourth ''Pikmin'' title being worked on for the Wii U.{{cite web|http://mynintendonews.com/2014/11/06/miyamoto-hints-that-pikmin-4-could-be-in-development/|Miyamoto Hints Yhat Pikmin 4 Could Be In Development|My Nintendo News}}
 
===Miiverse Miiting===
[[File:Miiting.jpeg|thumb|200px|Artwork for the Miiting.]]
On {{date|22|November|2014}}, a Japanese Miiverse user by the name of Marichan interviewed Shigeru Miyamoto about the movies. During the interview, Miyamoto revealed professional screenshots of the official storyboard, concept art of the opening to ''The Night Juicer,'' and gave a better look at the bulletin board seen in the same movie. He also discussed the making of the movies and some more minor details. The full interview can be seen <span class="plainlinks">[https://web.archive.org/web/20171018140531/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlwtdBZ2Q here]</span>. In the Japanese edition, Miyamoto talks about ''{{w|Flipnote Studio}}'' and its sequel then never released outside of Japan, but in the English version, all mentions of this were removed.{{cite web|http://www.reddit.com/r/3DS/comments/2n6jx2/nintendo_censors_any_mention_of_flipnote_studio/|Nintendo censors any mention of Flipnote Studio from Pikmin Short Films interview on Miiverse|Reddit}}{{cite web|http://n4g.com/news/1627002/flipnote-studio-censored-from-recent-miyamoto-interview|Flipnote Studio censored from recent Miyamoto interview|N4G}}
 
===YouTube move===
Some weeks after the announcement of {{p3d}}, the Pikmin Short Movies were announced to be delisted off the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U eShops, meaning users could no longer purchase the shorts, although users who previously purchased them still has download access. Instead, the videos would be officially uploaded to YouTube on all of Nintendo's regional channels. The move happened on {{date|8|October|2020}}.{{cite web|https://nintendoeverything.com/pikmin-short-movies-to-be-removed-from-the-3ds-wii-u-eshops-next-week/|Pikmin Short Movies to be removed from the 3DS / Wii U eShops next week|Nintendo Everything|published={{date|2|October|2020}}|retrieved={{date|5|October|2020}}}} The YouTube re-uploads can be freely enjoyed by everyone, but they do not include the bonus content that came with the eShop versions, and come without stereoscopic 3D support unlike the Nintendo 3DS versions.
