Undone and then improved on most of the changes in the previous edit as they were not, in fact, better.
(→‎Pikmin 3 Deluxe: I fixed a typo with the word "Nitendo" fixing it to "Nntendo".)

In {{p1}}, the screen fades in to some tree's leaves passing by the [[camera]]. As the camera goes down, it eventually stops near the ground, where the flowers of some [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can be seen, spelling out the game's name. The words "PRESS START" ("PRESS {{button|wii|a}}" in ''[[New Play Control! Pikmin]]'') then appear below that, and, in the bottom, the copyright information.

After pressing the requested button (although {{button|gc|a}} also works in the GameCube version), a menu with three options appears: "Start", "Options", and "Challenge Mode", with the last one only being there if [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin)|Challenge Mode]] has been unlocked. The first option takes the player to the [[saved game selection menu]], the second one to the [[options menu]], and the third one to the [[Challenge Mode menu]].

In {{p2}}, the screen fades in to show the camera moving down a tree's trunk, with some [[Enemy|enemies]] roaming around it. When it gets to ground level, it stops, showing some white-flowered Pikmin spelling out "PIKMIN" with their leaves, and to the right, some pink-flowered Pikmin spelling out "2". At this point, "PRESS START" (or "PRESS {{button|wii|a}}", in ''New Play Control! Pikmin 2'') appears below the Pikmin, and in the bottom of the screen, the copyright information.

This menu comes in four seasons, picked at [[Randomness|random]] each time:
*Spring: The tree's branches have several leaves, and the trunk has [[Anode Dweevil]]s (although with yellow feelers as opposed to red) and [[Ravenous Whiskerpillar]]s roaming around. The ground has a varied assortment of flowers and plants.
*Spring: The tree is a {{w|cherry blossom}} tree. There are no creatures on it, and the ground is filled with foliage.

*Autumn: The tree's leaves are all orange and red, and the tree itself has no creatures wandering about. The ground has several fallen leaves and a few plants.

The main menu for {{p4}} is very basic, only showing clips from previous promotional footage. There is a random chance of the title screen zooming out of an in-universe TV, revealing a group of Pikmin and [[Oatchi]] in a house-like environment where they are eventually attacked by a [[Bulborb]]. If the title screen zooms out this way, the screen on said TV never progresses beyond the initial clip of a [[White Spectralid]]s sitting on a flower.
The main menu for {{p4}} is very basic, only showing clips of the [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]] from promotional footages. After completing the Rescue Olimar [[Mission (Pikmin 4)|mission]], there is a random chance of the title screen zooming out of an in-universe TV, revealing a group of Pikmin and a sleeping [[Oatchi]] on a table in a [[Hero's Hideaway|house-like environment]]. Surrounding them is a tipped-over paper bag overfilled with [[Face Wrinkler|Face Wrinklers]], a white plant pot, a stack of books, and [[Sweet Tooth Series|various cookies]] on a plate, where a few Pikmin picks it up. A [[Bulborb]] eventually comes and attacks the group, waking up Oatchi and ran away with the Pikmin. After a few seconds, the Pikmin returned to the table and Oatchi goes back to sleep. If the title screen zooms out this way, the screen on said TV never progresses beyond the initial clip of a [[White Spectralid]]s sitting on a flower.
