User [[User:WhoTheFlower|WhoTheFlower]] added this glitch to the main page, but with no information. Given how insane the glitch is, and how nobody's ever heard of anything similar, and how there's no real way to reproduce it or any documentation, it shouldn't go in the main page. Maybe one day if it gets reproduced, it can be added, but for now, it could well be some hardware problem that caused it. I've moved the glitch from the main page here, so it's still documented anyway. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 17:13, 19 March 2018 (EDT) | User [[User:WhoTheFlower|WhoTheFlower]] added this glitch to the main page, but with no information.

I was playing ''Pikmin 2'' a while back, when, on the third day, I checked the Onion to deposit Pikmin at the same time the screen was fading out to show the cutscene that explained the end of the day. The screen had either just turned or almost turned pitch-black when the Onion menu came up, making the screen fully visible again while I messed with the menu. When I closed the Onion menu, the game crashed. This glitch is probably easily reproduced, but I don't have the means to record proof of it working. My suggested method to reproduce it would be: | I was playing ''Pikmin 2'' a while back, when, on the third day, I checked the Onion to deposit Pikmin at the same time the screen was fading out to show the cutscene that explained the end of the day.

:That sounds like a typical Pikmin 2 glitch for sure! I want to investigate that crash and a couple of other crashes brought about recently, so it'll all be documented soon, hopefully. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 11:14, 20 January 2019 (EST) | |||

# On that cave unit with a pool, in "tile"-themed sublevels, if the research pod is near that pool, the Pikmin deliver something, and then return to a leader that's in the pool, they will stay underwater in the pool without drowning. — '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 12:05, May 31, 2022 (EDT) | |||
== Weird instance of tilting == | |||
So, we've been doing a Pikmin 2 challenge run recently, and encountered a very strange instance of tilting that... Well, its strangeness is twofold. We, fortunately, got footage of it, and we've posted it [https://youtu.be/g4ZVB5KXbLE here]. But to summarize: | |||
# The object didn't tilt by falling from a high distance, but instead seemingly by being pushed by another object. The two hitboxes, evidently, disagreed with one another. Notably, this was on the [[Hole of Beasts]] Sublevel 4, which is entirely flat, so falling isn't even possible here. | |||
# The game then, after some time, attempted to resolve the tilting by deleting out-of-bounds objects. This... Did not bode well for our Pikmin. | |||
This was the NTSC-U, GameCube version of Pikmin 2. We, admittedly, don't know much about the inner workings of Pikmin 2, and we'd appreciate if someone could potentially help explain this. --[[User:Camwoodstock|Camwoodstock]] ([[User talk:Camwoodstock|talk]]) 15:12, July 5, 2023 (EDT) | |||
== Pikmin thrown through floor == | |||
I got to the record button too late to show it, but while near buried Pikmin on Sublevel 8 of the Subterranean Complex, I pressed the A button to throw more Pikmin into a Candypop Bud that had not been fully expended by converting Pikmin; not only were the buried Pikmin accidentally plucked and spawned in the pit, but Pikmin that I threw by continuing to press the A button also clipped through the floor and immediately died. This happened on the US version of Pikmin 2 for Switch. -- | |||
