Pikmin Adventure is a minigame featured in the Wii U title, Nintendo Land. As its name suggests, it is the Pikmin-themed minigame of the 12 Nintendo franchise-based minigames playable in Nintendo Land.

Unlike the normal Pikmin franchise, Pikmin Adventure is a fast-paced, action packed experience, as opposed to the RTS-styled puzzle solving nature of the normal franchise. Pikmin Adventure also includes a multiplayer versus mode.

This doesn't count.

Controls

One player will play as Olimar on the Gamepad. The touch screen is used to throw Pikmin, and ZL is used as the whistle. The whistle will call every player to the GamePad user. In extra levels, L is used to change the color of Pikmin to blue, yellow, red, and mixed.

The Wii Remote players use the 1 button to attack, the 2 button to jump, and the D-Pad to move around. All players can pick up boulders and bombs.

Power Ups

Trivia

  • The White Pikmin is the only color that a Wii Remote user can use that Olimar does not have. Purple Pikmin do not make an appearance in this attraction.
  • If a Red Pikmin using the Wii Remote is thrown by Olimar, it will home in to the enemy's weak spot.
  • If a player dies around 3 times, the game spawns the Assist Block, which will convert all players to Level 50. In timed challenges, It adds a minute to the clock.
  • Pikmin Adventure has the most bosses of any attraction. Battle Quest has 2, Metroid Blast has 3, but this attraction has 9.
  • Remixed themes of the Impact Site, Forest Navel, and Valley of Repose will play, depending on the current location.
  • The Wii Remote Pikmin will have different colored shapes under them: Blue Pikmin=blue circle, Red Pikmin=red square, Yellow Pikmin=yellow triangle, White Pikmin= Purple star.
