== Mistakes ==

=== ''Pikmin'' Nintendo Player's Guide ===

* In the section on [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]], the guide claims that the length of [[day]]s are longer than normal. This is only mostly true; [[The Final Trial]]'s time limit is the same as the normal length, and [[The Impact Site]]'s time limit is actually shorter.

* The [[Anti-Dioxin Filter]] is referred to as the "'''Non-Dioxin'''", which is a more direct translation of the original Japanese name. This name is also used in the [[Final results menu]] of {{Npcp1}}.

=== ''Pikmin 2'' Nintendo Player's Guide ===

* The "Two-Week Walk-Through" calls [[Emergence Cave]] the "'''Cave of Emergence'''". It is named properly everywhere else in the guide. It is worth noting that the name "Cave of Emergence" is used for the Emergence Cave in an [https://tcrf.net/Pikmin_2/Early_English_Script#Names unused early script inside Pikmin 2's files,] which may point to the Player's Guide's copy being of an outdated version as noted above.

* [[Ravenous Whiskerpillar]]s are misspelled as "Ravenous '''Whiskerpillers'''".

* The [[Treasure Hoard]] section features screenshots of the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] instead.
