Editing Pikmin in other media

Elements from the [[Pikmin series]] have appeared in several other Nintendo games. The Super Smash Bros. series in particular is well-known for having references to multitudes of Nintendo series and, more recently, those of other companies.

==Games==
===Luigi's Mansion===
On the title screen of Luigi's Mansion, select Options, and then "Pikmin Movie". This is a beta trailer of [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]] that was released before the game's final production.

===Super Smash Bros. Melee===
[[Image:Pikmin Trophy - SSBM.jpg|thumb|200px|The Pikmin trophy in the second Super Smash Bros. game.]]
Of this game's nearly 300 trophies two are based on Pikmin. One features a group of standing [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] of the three colors that are present in the [[Pikmin (game)|first game]] in the series, while the other is a trophy of [[Captain Olimar]] that can only be obtained if you have a [[Pikmin]] save on your memory card.

===Pokémon Ruby===
In the third generation of Pokémon, there is a grass/dark-type Pokémon named Nuzleaf. It has similar characteristics to [[Red Pikmin]], having a pointed nose and a leaf on its head, and its alternative "shiny" appearance is mainly red. Its highest stat is attack, and its ability, Chlorophyll, boosts a Pokémon's speed while its sunny in battle, similar to how Pikmin grow flowers that boost speed after being buried in the sun for some time.

===Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour===
If the player hits the ball into a Flower Bed, the three Pikmin types from the first game will fly out.

===Nintendogs===
In all 6 versions of this game, at the second-hand shop, there is a Red Bulborb toy on a shelf of products in a some pre-rendered background shots.

===Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker===
In ''The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker'' the 3 goddess statues resemble Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin. The statues all have a pole sticking out of their head (resembling a stem) and the Din statue has a nose, the Farore statue has ears, and the Naryu statue has a crack where the mouth should be.

===Warioware: Smooth Moves===
The [[Empress Bulblax]] makes a [[cameos|cameo]] appearance in the game ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', wherein the player must tilt the Wii-mote to roll the beast from side to side in an endeavour to squash Pikmin. This mini-game is called "Pikmin 2", and the background music is the music played on the demo screens in [[Pikmin 1]]. The same music is also used as the "Louie's Dark Secret" theme in [[Pikmin 2]].

===Super Mario Galaxy===
[[Image:SMG The Ship.png|thumb|175px|A supposed representation of the ship in Super Mario Galaxy.]]
In the Space Junk Galaxy, there is a ship that bears great resemblance to [[The Ship]] in Pikmin 2. It serves no purpose other than as a planetoid between planetoids, part of the level. It is not a precise recreation, and there has been debate over whether it is indeed modelled on the Pikmin ship or whether any similarities are coincidence.  The main features that allow a connection to be drawn are the colors, three fins and two bubble-shaped cockpit windows.

===Super Smash Bros. Brawl===
{{main|Super Smash Bros. Brawl}}
'''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''' is the latest and third installment in Nintendo's cross-series 3D fighting game.  It is the only series where Pikmin elements have exceeded a couple of trophies, most notably for the inclusion of [[Olimar]] as a playable character.
There are 21 trophies and 16 stickers from the Pikmin series in this game.

===Animal Crossing===

In the original Animal Crossing, there is an e-Reader card with a Pikmin design, which can be used for clothes, wallpaper, etc.. It can be viewed [http://www.animalcrossingcommunity.com/pattern_view.asp?PatternID=27370 here]. (Series 2, [http://animalcrossing.planets.gamespy.com/images/ecard/2-d04.jpg D04])

In Wild World, there is an item called "Pikmin". When touched, it says the word "Pikmin", sounding similar to the sound at the start of [[Pikmin 2]]. There is also a character named Gulliver, whose story shares similarities with the plot of Pikmin 1. The player hits him with a slingshot and makes him crash, after which his ship parts need collecting. His ship is named the "Porpoise 5000", which is a clearly a reference to the S.S. Dolphin.

In City Folk, Gulliver and the same items reappear, as well as a DLC-exclusive red Pikmin hat, to commemorate the release of NPC! Pikmin, and a to-scale model of the [[S.S. Dolphin]], to celebrate the 40th year anniversary of the Apollo 11's successful landing on the moon.[[image:Dolphin_animal_crossing_city_folk.jpg|thumb|left|175px|The Dolphin as it appears in Animal Crossing: City Folk]]
