Revision as of 13:34, June 23, 2023

One of the e-mails Olimar can receive.

To do: Verify the icon for each message. Also, it looks as though each character has their own notification sound for when the letter opens. At least the last message with Olimar's wife does. Elaborate.
Care to do so?

At the end of every day in Pikmin 2, Captain Olimar receives some mail. These short messages provide context to the story and show what the various minor characters are doing while the leaders are exploring.

The mail that appears for each day is taken from a specified set that depends on how many Pokos the player has collected, and is always received in a set order. Once every message in one set has been shown, the final message in the set is repeated until the requirements for the next are met.

It is possible to view past mail entries by pressing the L Button on the GameCube controller / the + Control Pad left on the Wii Remote and the R Button on the GameCube controller / the + Control Pad right on the Wii Remote, but only the 20 most recent mails are saved.

In the following lists, items with two lines mean that they are different between the GameCube and Wii versions; the top line corresponds to the GameCube original, and the bottom one to New Play Control! Pikmin 2.

The jingle that plays when receiving mail.

Trivia

  • In the GameCube version, the player is able to hold down the L Button on the GameCube controller or the R Button on the GameCube controller in order to automatically flip through the mails, but in the New Play Control! version, this is no longer possible; the player must press the + Control Pad left on the Wii Remote or the + Control Pad right on the Wii Remote each time.
  • One of the spammer's mails mentions an "E-Mag #255". 255 is the maximum value an unsigned byte can hold, and as a result of its relevance in game development, this number appears commonly in Nintendo game scripts, along with 256, for the same reason.[1][2]
  • At the end of the day, if the player opens that day's e-mail, then goes back to the Pikmin stats menu, and returns to the e-mail, its window will rise up from the bottom of the screen, squashing the sender's icon on the way up.
