Pikmin personality test
The Pikmin personality test (ピクミン性格診断?) is a piece of Japanese web content released alongside Pikmin 2, accessible through the URL in the first of five spam mails in Japanese versions of the game, prior to the Nintendo Switch port. The URL in question is http://nintendo.jp/p/c234 on the GameCube and http://nintendo.jp/p/w234 on the New Play Control! version.
It is comprised of fifteen multiple-choice questions with five options each. Each option corresponds to one of five characters from the game: the Pikmin, Olimar, Louie, the President and the Hocotate ship. Upon answering all questions and confirming, the user is taken to a page with the results, and a button to show the obtained character's perfect match: the Bulborb for the Pikmin, Olimar's wife for Olimar, Louie's grandmother for Louie, the President's wife for the President, and the Beady Long Legs for the Hocotate ship.
