Pikmin 2

Amplified Amplifier

Revision as of 02:31, April 5, 2013 by 31.53.65.136 (talk) (150% of something is itself plus one half of itself, thus if a circle has a range of 2, increasing it to 150% of itself yields 3, which is not 'more than' doubling, it is almost doubling. Doubling would require 200% of the original diameter.)

The Amplified Amplifier is a treasure in Pikmin 2, actually a loudspeaker from a stereo, found on the final Sublevel of the Shower Room. Getting it requires fast thinking, as a Ranging Bloyster has to be defeated. After it is brought to the Research Pod, The Ship uses it to create the Mega Tweeter.

Mega Tweeter

Unlocking the Mega Tweeter increases the range of the whistles of all Captains. The diameter of the visible circle on the screen increases to 150% of its original size, thus almost doubling the area the whistle affects. This makes it easier to call scattered Pikmin to Olimar's side, even when being slow in the Onions.

The Ship's Dialogue

Found

"Processing... How odd. The gooey creature dissolved, leaving this curious item behind."

"It appears to be coated in slime. Are you sure you want to collect this? ...Absolutely sure?"

"You'll toss just about anything in my hold! It would be nice if you cleaned occasionally!"
