The screen fades in to show a detailed portion of [[PNF-404]], on a forest-like location. A tree trunk can be seen in the distance, and a river takes most of the attention of the scene. Occasionally, Pikmin of varying types are seen moving about in the distance. The game's logo gradually fades in, and the message "PRESS {{button|wiiu|a|wii|a}}" appears. After any of those buttons are pressed or the touchscreen is tapped, the three menu bubbles appear. On the bottom left, there is a small copyright message, and on the bottom right, the [[Update|version]] number.

The "Story" button leads to the [[#Day selection|day selection]] screen, the "Mission" button to the [[#Mission Mode|Mission Mode]] screen, and the "Bingo Battle" button to the [[#Bingo Battle|Bingo Battle]] screen. The "Mission" button will have an eShop icon coming out of it if there is [[downloadable content]] available, regardless of it being purchased already or not.

Interestingly, the terrain shown on the title screen bears a striking resemblance to the [[Awakening Wood]]'s west corridor. The trunk stump seen on the title screen, as well as the surrounding area closer to the screen, matches with the small open space where the [[Geographic Projection]] can be found. The river path further beyond on the title screen matches all the way with the path south of the treasure in the Awakening Wood. Finally, at the end of the path, there is a curved tree. This is almost exactly the same tree with the [[Snagret Hole]]. This can be best seen using a model editor for both pieces of terrain, since the water and perspective don't allow one to see the connection very clearly.
