The '''Analog Computer''' is a rocket part for the [[S.S. Dolphin]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. This part is found in a puddle near some fire geysers in [[The Forest Navel]]. It works with a ship's regular computer to make it smarter and have emotional complexity, making it quick to anger with an attitude. It holds the kind of vague data that falls outside of the ones and zeros range. Because Olimar says this, many players mistake this piece for an optional ship part, but it is mandatory.

The Analog Computer (アナログコンピュータ?, lit.: "Analog Computer") is a ship part in Pikmin. This part works with a spaceship's regular computer to make it smarter and have emotional complexity, making it quick to anger. It holds the kind of vague data that falls outside the range of ones and zeros. Captain Olimar compares this part to his boss. After being collected, this part does not change the S.S. Dolphin's appearance.

The Analog Computer also appears in Pikmin 3 Deluxe as part of the Hocotate ship in Olimar's Comeback, where it has a similar appearance with some changes. This Analog Computer has a blueish hue, a thicker base, and an inverted screen. It does not emit sonar pinging-like noises, and the antenna on top of it does not spin. It is worth Poko × 700.

Location of the Analog Computer.

The Analog Computer is located in a puddle at the far end of the trail where the Libra is found. Blue Pikmin are needed to get it out of the puddle and Red Pikmin are needed to carry it through the fire geysers. It is possible to collect this part with only 20 Pikmin due to the Crimson Candypop Bud on the plateau near the ship part, but it is not recommended while speedrunning. Sometimes an Iridescent Flint Beetle can appear from under it when it is lifted.

In Pikmin 3 Deluxe[edit]

See also: Baldy Long Legs strategy.

In Pikmin 3 Deluxe, this part is located in the Side Stories' final mission, The Ship Restored. Defeating the creatures near the start allows easy access to this mode's final boss: a golden Shaggy Long Legs (which holds the Nova Blaster) and a golden Baldy Long Legs (which holds the Analog Computer). The golden Baldy Long Legs is the first one to be encountered, and must be defeated to allow the part to be collected.

Notes

Olimar's monologs

I've found my Analog Computer!

This computer conveys the kind of vague data that falls outside the range of ones and zeros. Actually, to be honest, it's a little bit too vague, so it isn't very helpful.


This strengthens the outward emotions of the Dolphin's computer. While it does make the computer smart, it also makes it quick to anger. It's just like my boss.
